Don't string Truner along, Satoh. He likes baiting people.
In other news, I'm getting more RAM installed soon. Fingers crossed nothing goes wrong!

I've been thinking about completely ignoring the fact that humans need sleep. I wonder how well that would go Something like this, I would assume.
So I was supposed to do two art pieces for the GMOTM Inafune artbook, but I haven't even started on one. Well, I started several times, but then my computer just decided that farting was a lot better than functioning properly. Hopefully I can finish a piece, but I'm kind of doubting it. I'm sorry, Inafune-san.

I never really found Creepypasta to be all that frightening, myself. Maybe I'm just looking at the wrong ones.

I never really found Creepypasta to be all that frightening, myself. Maybe I'm just looking at the wrong ones. Agreed, but for the sake of argument, it is creepy not scary... Though that one in particular was just gory. Gore is only uneasing when its on your own floor, in your own life. Gore is only useful, when its real. EDIT: And also that story is completely implausible, not for all the creepy things that happened, but simply because people have gone more than 15 days without sleep and basically all it did was make them seem a bit drunk and their nutrients were all out of whack.... It does have effects on your mental capabilities, but mostly just impairing them. 5 days will make you fail simple comprehension and geometric tests (putting round peg in square hole kind of thing), you'll be more easily irritated, and you'll feel cold and want to eat or drink a lot. Basically the food thing is because your brain is receiving similar signals to the ones for hunger 'energy low, we need repair and rest' so it commands you to seek food to fix the energy problem. Our bodies tend to heat up and cool down a lot when we sleep, thus explaining the odd temperature regulation... The only thing that could explain even the mundane parts of that story as remotely believable, is the possibility that the chamber was filled with gaseous LSD. (A substance that a single drop on the skin at 0% dilution will cause you to experience the most insanity a human brain can handle, repeated exposures will leave you pretty well over the line of insane for the rest of your life, I knew a guy who is proof of this...government testing did happen.) ahem. anyway at high doses it is lethal, and as an extremely dilute aerosol, it -might- be considered a stimulant... But those examiners would have to be pretty well inept to try an experiment like that.. its not even scientific. "5 people in a room with gas and see what happens" is not a theory.

How many people do you think here are "90's kids"? Hm? I think we've got enough to recognize this: Yeah. I went there.

Ghetto dunkaroos!? I wish they still made the original ones, I haven't seen those things in forever. Teddy grahams are junk in my opinion

Shoutouts to those different fruity candies they came out with when I was a kid; Fruit by the Foot, Fruit Rollups, Gushers...man, those were the days. I remember being afraid to eat Gushers at first because on the commercials it turned the kids' heads into fruit.

Sour Punch Straws were amazing too. I remember when I found out you could actually use them to drink out of.

Funny enough I was talking about 90's foods recently with a friend, or foods that were at least popular in the 90's...going to just name a few off the top of my head:
Baby bottle pop Go-Gurt Candy Cigarettes (Those white chalky ones) Bubblegum Tape Bubba-Jug ( ? ) Waffle Cereal...cant remember the exact name, but it was mini waffle shaped bits as a cereal. Oreo's cereal Push Pops Wonder Ball (Kinda like kindler Eggs...)
Sadly some of these are gone for good, and I miss them too.

In other words? They were worried that people would somehow manage to choke on the little bonus toys inside the egg.
