Seven Late Night Questions

[deeplyunhip]

Just the usual set of unrelated questions. :)



[Poll #1667106]



Though the nap question is related to my current supremely erratic sleep schedule. I need to work on that.

TIME OF THE MONTH TIGER

I take as long of naps as Atticus lets me. XD probably anywhere from 20 min a day to 2 hours.

also I was goign to write "Curl up into a ball and cry" but Atticus hit my keyboard and typed "R3" and enter..sooooo, there you go. R3 BABY!

I usually hate naps, but I've just been taking them lately because, well I guess that's just what winter does to me. I hate it though.

SOCIALLY LAZY SLOTH!!

I'm a fan of power napping. It's funny how napping for 2 hours makes me feel awful, but napping for 20 minutes makes me feel great.

How about POKEMON POG GAMES? Or FURBY BOARD GAMES?

Both of which may or may not have been played recently. *facepalm*

ALSO LITTLEST PET SHOPS but what the fuck their heads are like EXPLODED SIZE now, what the fuck.

Also. Idioms for much win.

I remember Pokemon, Tamagotchi, Furbies, Beanie Babies, Gossebumps and Gameboys, but from my kid brother's childhood, not my own. *is old*

Naps: when I nap on the train, as I occasionally do, my naps last about 60 minutes, because that's the length of the rid (though often it's actually split into two parts by the conductor checking for tickets). The only other time I nap is if I'm ill, and then I'm likely to sleep for longer, like 1-2 hours.

Tell me if you get this reference:

"...somewhere really uncomfortable."
"What, like the back of a Volkswagon?"

That's what your death question made me think of. ;)

I've been taking micro naps recently, like 2-10 minutes at a time, multiple times a day, done while sitting in a chair... >_>

I'm so clueless about memes.

Dying in a vacuum would scare the heck out of me, therefore, space. :|

I have no clue what you're referring to for the last two questions.
I'm happy to see that I don't use cliches :) For some reason those sorts of phrases bug me.
For the trend one, you were just asking what I saw people around me into right, not necessarily what I personally got into? If for some reason you're interested in which ones I followed, they were: stickers! (still love stickers, but I don't display them in albums that I carry around with me anymore), pogs, Jagged Little Pill (though I never owned the album), American Girl (my favorite was Kirsten), Goosebumps (and Fear Street), and supersoakers a little bit.

Yay, poll!

I've heard of all of the idioms, but never used any of them. And I'm too freaking old for most of the trends to have taken place in my childhood, although there are several of them that I still like now (Pokemon ftw!).

The only time I've ever been able to nap is when I'm sick, which used to be never, and is now all the time. I'm the only person I know who occasionally sets their alarm for 4pm :D

-- I only take naps if I've pulled an all nighter, and sometimes not even then, because whenever I do wake up from a nap I feel a hundred times worse than I felt before it.

-- Dying underground sounds terrifying. I was torn between the bottom of the ocean and outer space, but I figure those two would be relatively quick and painless, whereas being trapped and slowly suffocating or falling to my death sounds worse.

-- I haven't read Hunger Games but I imagine it must be kind of like Battle Royale. I don't think I'd actually survive it, in all honestly, but I don't think I'd want to make any friends. >:|

-- I am, uh, very unhip because I haven't heard of any of these memes. I'd like to put in a vote for Kermit Bale, though.

-I don't personally use a lot of those idioms, but I'm a fan. XD My mom's full of hilarious old fashioned ones I've picked up, like "too big for your britches" and "hold your horses."

-Seconding Socially Lazy Sloth! My biggest love is Paranoid Parrot, though. We're kindred spirits.

Woah, I don't use any of those idioms. I suppose I avoid them because as a writer, I try to avoid any hint of cliche as a rule. But I never noticed I didn't use them in my general speech either. Fascinating.

I admit, I nap frequently because my work absolutely drains me. Naps range from anywhere between 60-120 minutes, depending on how generous Yvonne is. I also really loved Puppy in my Pocket toys when I was a kid, mostly because I was (and am) a dog nut. I still have some of them here with me.

I love just about all of those memes... but Troll face is probably my favorite so I know the people who made it.

I have issues taking naps :-/ I do it when I'm really tired, but my sleep schedule sucks as it is, so if I sleep during the day, it takes away from nighttime sleeping
