Howdy, friends!

Have you ever been up at night and decided to, like a coward, go to sleep?

Wouldn't it be more convenient to just not do that?

With my coaching and three easy payments of $39.95, you can learn to stay awake 2 to 3 times longer than you currently do and to keep the painful physical and psychological side effects to a minimum.

Yeah but aren't you a walking contradiction to the side effects promise? Oh snap!

But I like the side effects...

In high school there was a short period where I almost didn't sleep at all and I drank a 12-pack of Mt. Dew Live Wire a night. Crazy. I also liked to drink a ton of coffee and those energy drinks.

When I stay up all night I feel terrible the next day even though the drowsiness wears away for a little bit. It is not a fun feeling though.

I can pull one and work all through the next day and night. But much beyond that I need a power nap or two at the least to keep going longer.

Years of graveyard hours and crazy last minute study sessions and papers twisted me and my sleep style.

Agreed.

If I stay up for 24 hours I get iritatible and I don't think well.

When I'm past my sleep deprivation limit, I turn into Capt. Jack Sparrow.

Apparently not sleeping for more than 24-hours makes you just as impaired as being drunk.

Perhaps we have solved the Morari, Brood, Ian personality dilemma!

If I recall correctly Ian is a VG programer. So he likely has long stretchs of no sleep. Broodwars is a Game tester for a VG company. Morari probably works on his CPU all day.

It all makes sense!

I assure you, all the physical and psychological problems I have are completely unrelated to my lack of sleep *twitch*.

I had a recent stretch of getting less than 5 hours of sleep over the course of 60 hours. The weird thing is at the end I wasn't even tired and was actually in a great mood, despite the fact that the end was also where I was doing hard, physical work.

Steak and eggs bitch. Steak and eggs..

I more or less am not a steak fan, especially not in the mornings. It's always been too tough or had too much fat in it for me, and you can't stick it in a biscuit because of that, too.

Maybe some sausage, bacon, grits, biscuits, waffles, or hash browns, yeah, I'd definitely go for, but the name of the thread has "International House of...." like IHoP, short for the "International House of Pancakes." Hence Pancakes.

Do you like steak n eggs or not?

Stratos · « **Reply #20 on:** August 17, 2009, 02:58:45 PM »

I have never tried it. I should some time. I grew up in a house where we didn't typically have that type of meal. Sounds like a crazy awesome protein meal, though.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #21 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:01:30 PM »

I personally like Ham and Eggs for breakfast. Steak is too tough early in the morning.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #22 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:05:39 PM »

If your steak is too tough in the morning then you should probably not cook it the night before only to microwave it the next morning. Or you shouldn't overcook your steak. Try turning the heat down a little bit. Or you need to check what kind of steak you are cooking for breakfast. Choose a better cut.

vudu · « **Reply #23 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:11:19 PM »

I'm confused--is 'steak' code for 'man-love'?

Stogi · « **Reply #24 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:38:26 PM »

Turkey bacon or turkey sausage, eggs, a small salad (with homemade olive oil based dressing), fruit, a slice of bread and some OJ or milk is what everyone should wake up to.

Delicious and nutritious.
