@nihilvt Amazon's work conditions aren't the greatest, but they do pay a good amount and they have absurdly good benefits too. I think if you're working at place like Amazon, you should *expect* the holidays to be absolutely bonkers.

Just bulldoze all the Amazon strikers. $21/hr isn't enough? When you don't even have a GED and you make more than private security for labeling boxes, it's somehow greedy Jeff's fault.

I was making $17/hr working in a warehouse, at 1AM in 30° cold for Christmas. 600 packages to sort amongst 4 trucks, these people are weak and need to be removed.

There was a Wii remake of GoldenEye 007 as well. I got really good at that multiplayer. So good that I was kicked a lot for people thinking I was cheating. My KD was like 10 lol.

There was an FPS called The Conduit on the Wii that had multiplayer. I got really good at it. There was this glitch where if you died right as you picked up the rocket launcher, it would combine with whatever weapon you were holding when you respawned. It was pretty fun shooting fully automatic rockets lmao. People got wise to it eventually and the game mode changed entirely from just a simple death match to something more akin to man with the golden gun.

@RustyCrab as far as video games go, history teaches that it's kind of always been a thing. Remember the 360 meltdowns?

@tomie have you ever had the exploding head thing? That happens to me sometimes when I'm trying to fall asleep or if I wake up randomly in the middle of the night. No way I can go to bed after that.

@lnx yeah I might have to do that again. It just gets risky for me because I have epilepsy. Great combo!

If I miss the sweet spot where I'm actually tired I won't sleep. That sweet spot is usually only like 30 minutes long. Eventually, if I stay awake, I'll loop back around to being awake and sometimes even really energetic. Like, just had 200mg of caffeine energetic. It's like I can feel the energy shooting through me. Yet I still yawn and my eyelids still droop. So here I am contemplating whether to keep trying to sleep and waste my time, or to get up and do something to maybe help wear myself out and hope I can sleep for at least a little bit before work. If not, I'll be actually drinking 200mg of caffeine.

Aggghhhhhhhhh I wish I just didn't have to sleep at all.
