What keeps you up?

<< < (5/8) > >>

Sosseres:
Hmm maybe one should only watch anime at night and rate it on how it effects ones sleep. Ones that are exciting enough to make you stay awake vs relaxing ones that put you to sleep quickly vs annoying ones that make you rage and skip forward (thus keeping you awake).

I will agree with others, one needs to do something interesting in order to not fall asleep. Though even that fails around the 70h mark, not even sitting up in a chair while doing something that normally requires a lot of concentration really works at that point (only done this twice, wasn't worth it). (Though there is that documented case of a person not needing any sleep at all with no real ill effects.)

My question is when you stay up getting caught up in some game/anime/w/e what do you do to stay up even longer?

Maybe this is just me but if i gotta get up at 7 AM and i havent gone to bed at 3 i realise that i will be completely incapable of getting up at 7 so i stay up and get through the coming day without sleep.

What makes me keep it together in this case is Techno, not really much of a listener to the genre but i have noticed how it can keep you awake no matter how tired you are.

I think that was a lie.
