    Oh good. Finally someone whos not glued to their computer! I thought I was the only one who's only stayed up 60 hours _without_ a computer. Its only parties that keep me up that long. And only the damn fine ones...

    I just noticed that DarkViper is from Canada too. Guess we have more fun up here.

    too bad the parties I go to are scared away by the cops seeing as we're at the beach. Those cops hate it when we're smart-asses...eg.

    COP: What are you kids doin?
    ME: Lighting a fire..hehe
    COP: Whats with all the alcohol bottles?
    FRIEND: They were here when we *hickup* got here
    ...
    etc
    ME runs away and sleeps in friends backyard without anyone knowing. (my mum thinks i'm sleeping over there).

    Damn shifty 15 yr olds...

    I could probably go for 48 hrs or more, but i would rather have a good nights sleep than torture myself... i wouldnt have any fun that way anyway...

    by the way... i have gone a bit more than 24 hours... - yep... i hardly party...
    I am the Alpha and the Omega!!!

    oh canada is the party country! you go a block down youll see someone partiiing. canada is alot of fun and by far better than the US (of what i saw of it).

    canada has fresh air, (no pollution) and trees to help you breath. the things that help USA people breath are Air Conditioners! LOL!

    canada is all natural with little pollution and can still have a helluva time!

    canada RULEZ!

    I need to sleep but I don't have time and I don't like to.
    For example I'm very tiered now but I'm still reading the forum, I have to wake up tomorrow at 7 and, I hate that too.

    Wow, you guys seem like professionals when it comes to staying awake. Ive never had a reason to stay awake very long, but I guess you dont really need one. I think the longest I went without sleep is 24 hrs.

    Well, I have been working nights recently.

    I cannot for the life of me get to sleep afterwards though.

    When it comes to weekend, I go regularly 48 hrs without sleep.


    At work, it doesnt matter.

    At home it hurts your head.
    Such is life.

    Right now, I've been up for 33 straight hours. It's not as bad as I thought it would be. (The mid to late 20s are far worse.)

    >or worse, i could be driving somewhere and i fall aleap and die!<

    They had this TV show on that was testing drunken drivers versus sleep-deprived drivers. Guess which one was the worst driver...
