If you're actually getting 8 hours of sleep you aren't an old.

Most every old I know is in the 4-6 hour...maybe 7 range...maybe also an afternoon nap thrown in on the weekends.

Supposedly the elderly sleep a lot but if my 80 something year old dad was any indication, he slept in like 3 hour blocks periodically throughout the day and would be wide awake after. I hear restive sleep is hard when you're that old.

Weinke it is scientific fact people sleep less as they age. Sleep is associated with learning in current theories. So the idea is people learn less as they age, so they need less sleep. Especially , REM sleep. Look it up, it is modern sleep psychology.

 

[Dega]

I sleep like 5hrs on average.

 

[Kave_Man]

5-6hrs usually on weekdays and then 6-7 on weekends.

 

[Goro Majima]

I think ez sleeps like 2-3 hours a night. He's living the dream because I wish my body could adjust to that without consequences.

I wasn't being skeptic. It sounds like you're confirming what I said!

There's a cliche that the elderly go to bed early and take frequent naps but I think that has more to do with the fact that they don't sleep well period so they're not getting very good sleep to begin with. Like yeah my 80+ year old dad would go to bed between 7:30-8PM but he would always wake up and watch tv from like 1-4AM and then fall back asleep until like 6AM.

 

[Tom Penny]

5 hours weekdays. 8 hours weekends because I usually got hammered the night before.

 

[Goro Majima]

8 hours after getting hammered? I wish!

I get alcohol insomnia really bad so it's like pass out for 3-4 hours and then stay awake until dawn followed by a Saturday/Sunday nap.

Coffee time

I used to live with my grandparents. My g-pa was similar.

Hell, it sounds good to me. Sleep when you're dead. It is football season, baby!

 

[Tamanon]

Yeah, I actually sleep less after drinking. It's weird. Was killing me last weekend when we went hard Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. That Sunday was brutal.

Same here, I can't sleep for shit after drinking. It's real annoying.

Yeah I set my alarm at like 7am and hit snooze forever. I miss naps. I used to work 7-3 take a power nap then party all night for years when my body could handle it.

Brother! I'm the same way, have some drinks and my sleep is fucked.

Go to bed at 4am, wake up at 7am, can't go back to sleep rest of the day.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I can't sleep all the way through the night

I wake up like 3-4 times a night

 

[Crisco]

After I stopped smoking weed it took a solid month or longer before I could sleep through the night again. Now I just drink a few ounces of bourbon before bed and sleep like a baby.

 

[Dega]

Go back to bed.




please

 

[Hunter S.]

I heard Peyton sleeps like a baby, sometimes forgetting to take the rings off...

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Go back to bed.




please

Don't tell me what to do

 

[Goro Majima]

I'm glad we can all gripe together about sleep being an elusive stuck up bitch after some drinks. Why don't she want us man?

Olds

Aren't you posting from a rocking chair?

 

[zswordsman]

Damn, I've always been able to sleep 8+ hours without a problem.
There's been times when Ive went to sleep at 7pm and woke up at 7am. 12 hours :v

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I can't sleep late anymore

 

[DMczaf]

I can't sleep late anymore

I took your sleep

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I took your sleep

I slept with your mom

I am the same.

Sleep was never a problem for me.

I am an old and I Iike to get at least 7 a night. I have kids so the weekend don't mean shit anymore. No more sleeping in.

Open locker room at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex: Dustin Vaughan has a cast on his right hand. Says he fractured a bone in his thumb.

Wanted: Third sting quarterback. Skeletal system must not be made of glass or glassesque materials.

 

[DMczaf]

I slept with your mom

I had sex with your wife

 

[FloydtheFathead]

He's 12, he can't have a wife

 

[Alligatorjandro]

You want The Joe Webb Experience?

He's a 3rd string QB who doubles as a special teams wizard!

 

[Crisco]

The real question is how do I make my lazy ass wife wake up before 11AM on weekends.

 

[zswordsman]

By getting a new one.

 

[chuckddd]

Sure. Can't be worse than shattered glass.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Sure. Can't be worse than shattered glass.

Ehhh...ummm

you could say that

 

[chuckddd]

Ehhh...ummm

you could say that

Wasn't even intercepted. He might play in front of Landry!

Now that's more like it, mon.

Yeah I'm the same way. I generally can't sleep past 9 anyway but even if I'm out till 3 I wake up at 7:30 and can't get back to sleep

 

[Dutch Gronk]

Why is that Gata?


Can they hold a candle to Milch's Bayern Munich team?

Nowadays they might...

 

[manfestival]

have any of you fools seen the babadook?

 

[Slo]

Ehhh...ummm

you could say that

JWebb is the only QB in the NFL to ever make you say "I wish Christian Ponder was starting this playoff game."

 

[Alligatorjandro]

have any of you fools seen the babadook?

I liked it

 

[Line_HTX]

Probably no good then man.

[Spinluck]

8 hour sleep?

That sounds like the life.

 

[BigAT]

Suck it Dutch, our ladies are better than yours.

Spoiler

Although I think we might be able to find a green card for Laura Dijkema.

[Alligatorjandro]

Whoa

 

[Mackenzie 92]

That's crazy. Has to be more to the story.

Nowadays they might...

He's probably going to be mad that I'm slandering him like this.

Wienke will sponsor her.

Hmm that's something

 

[Crisco]

Prediction: Brad Nortman will prove to be a bigger off season loss than Josh Norman for the Panthers. Our rookie corners are looking fairly competent, while there isn't a healthy starting punter on the roster.
