    DON'T GO THERE!

    Also, just great, just found out my motherboard isn't compatible with the CPU/Micro I want to get for my slightly tuned up PC (Wanted to just upgrade the CPU, RAM and Sound Card because I'm scrapping the bottom of the barrel when I compose music) and the new motherboard might or might not be not compatible with my current cabinet (I haven't choosen a model yet)

    At this pace I'm going to end up replacing everything sans the video card (Which is kind of damaged)

    *Looks in the same direction as you* Yeah it's kind of pretty but not that much really.

    You just doomed atleast half the forum to being stuck an entire night on TVTropes learning how life and people are filled with streamlined archetypes one after another.

    ...

    Godlike (Nah just kidding, it's kind of fun to waste your time on that site but not that fun)

    I usually read tvtropes before I go to sleep. Despite the 'You should unplug at least an hour before going to sleep' recommendations. Or if I'm waiting for something to load as I have been watching Reign. Waiting for 40 minute episodes to load is extremely fun when you're impatient.

    wait, what?

    I'm plugged in right until I go to sleep and I can count the number of days I haven't gone to sleep watching/listening to internet videos this year on one hand.

    i'm either doing something horribly wrong or amazingly right

    This is what he's talking about:


    Although it's a bunch of blasphemy, personally. I fall asleep just fine watching TV every night.

    I believe it's supposed to be more about the quality of sleep you get rather than how fast you can fall asleep. REM sleep is the sleep you really want. Real deep sleep that allows your body to de-stress and all that stuff.

    This is accurate, from what I learned in a Biopsychology course. It's kinda neat because REM Sleep has more brainwave activity than the first few cycles of sleep.

    Just thought I'd share that my date on Friday went really well, and that she and I decided to try out a relationship.

    I don't know how long we'll last, so I'm definitely not getting my hopes up, especially since I don't want to do anything that will make being friends awkward later if we don't last.

    Back when we had KHV livestreams, I remember one night when we wound up watching the first episode. I was intrigued, but haven't watched any more of it.

    I can vouch for this, because I did a sleep thing at a doctor's office and they told me REM was pretty essential.
    I know the following is pretty TMI, but I'm gonna say it anyway.
    Up until I turned about 17 or 18, I used to wet the bed every night.
    I was fed up and decided to find out why I was doing such a thing.
    Come to find out, I have sleep apnea.
    Sleep apnea is when you stop breathing or breathe slower when you are asleep. This can cause your body to go into a sort of shock state. What this did to me was it caused me to wet myself as an attempt to wake me up.
    Eventually, I found out that if I slept on at least two pillows I would be able to sleep and not wet myself. The same would happen if I slept on my side.
    And ever since, I've not wet the bed a single time.
    Of course, at the same time, the doctors found out I wasn't getting enouhg REM sleep and soon enough I learned the wonders of getting that kind of sleep.

    Feels good, man.

    Okay, if any of y'all are roleplayers and you like Avatar/Korra, you'd BETTER join Mrs. Mayhem's Republic City RP. I'm gonna be seriously pissed if I put a bunch of effort into making characters only to find that there wasn't enough interest and it never became a thing, like with Boy Wonder's Triwizard Tournament RP. >:|

    That was always the worst. Making the story and the pretty graphic and then bam, no interest and you go weep in a corner.

    I've had this happen so many times, I've given up. Though my last effort I'm hoping to turn into a written story because I think that could be a thing. And I don't role play on KHV. Sorry.

    Shadows are terrible. Very bad for your health. You should get rid of them.
