8. You guys are lucky. Steelers fans aren't masochists like us.
Edited on Fri Jan-07-05 04:31 AM by SmileyBoy
Vikings fans are like the guy strapped to the table in an S&M video. We keep getting whipped and beaten, and we keep asking for more.

Just look at the Vikings message boards. Some of the most pragmatic football fans you'll ever see.

And yes, Foreskins fans are very delusional and idiotic. Just like Rams fans.

5. it wasnt an afternoon nap
a proscrinator's dream plan. Get home from school and sleep and eat hten sleep to the middle of the night, then work, and then fool around in the lounge, and then in a few mins go back to bed.

14. Wow, that's unfortunate
My problem is I usually sleep too long. Nothing like a good 12 hours of sleep! But then again I'm a college student, and we're weird like that.

26. Hmm, I remember some great 12 hour naps when I was in college.
Often after I had spent the entire previous 24 hours trying to make up for my procrastination.

27. Same here..................
5 hours a night is the best I can do. It certainly makes for a long day. I feel your pain.

31. I try to look on the bright side of it.
My house has never been cleaner, my laundry is always caught up, I am pretty up to the minute on current events and I have made some great night owl friends on DU. :D

Sending some good wishes for you to resolve your sleeping issues. Despite what I just said, I know how wears on a person. ;(

19. It's okay, i'm going to spare you the rod this time
but next time, come up with a clever excuse, such as 'my damn nocturnal gerbils make too much noise running in their wheels for me to sleep.'

ok then, my kitty is sleeping in my lap, and has been for the past 9 hours. I'm too much of a good dad to make her wake up and move so I can go to bed? :D

29. I have no excuse, other than I'm still on winter break.
My mother forced me to help her with errands at 11 am tommorrow (today), so I need to sleep soon.

30. Mothers have a tendency to get in the way of getting sleep
My mom used to wake my ass up at 6am when I still lived at home to help her take the trash out. Not fun, but I still did it since I'm basically a momma's boy.
