Hypothetical Question


I thought this might be fun. I'll watch the response and if the response is positive, I will try to post a hypothetical question once a week.

If there was a way for you to no longer require sleep--your body's physiological requirement of sleep no longer existed and you were in a permanent state of being freshly rested--would you choose to give up sleep?

definately, sleep is such a waste of time.. just think of all the things you could accomplish without wasting 6-8 hours a day sleeping... i personally do not sleep enough now, it is just such a waste of time... always something better to do... give me 3-4 hours and the occasional 6-8 hours and i am good to go!!!

Definitely, sleep would then become indeed such a complete waste of time. The things that I could do without the hassle of sleep everyday. We spend over half our life either in the bathroom or asleep. Cut out going to the bathroom too, and we would have cured cancer, aids, and set up colonies on mars by now.

HECK no!
As a mom of 2 boys (one who isn't quite there sleeping wise yet) I realize how WONDERFUL sleep is!
I'd NEVER want to give it up!
haha! :)

Jennifer brings up a good point...if we don't need sleep...then obviously our kids would not need sleep either. Can you imagine if your kids never slept! Brings the saying they are angels when they are sleeping a whole new meaning!!

Tw brings up a good point also....but did we have to go there? Lol!

That's tricky - nap time gets the kids outta my hair, so... if I decided not to sleep, does that mean the kids get out of it too??? If that's the case, then sleep wins for sure!!! How about food, the time I'd save if I didn't have to prepare or clean-up... Naw, I'd miss out on chocolate and lattes!

Nope...gotta have the sleep. But as far as food goes, we would all be a whole lot skinnier if we didn't have to have it!

Oh my!! What a topic for you DB!! You would sleep your life away if you had the chance. Got a rude awakening coming when you have kids!! Let me tell ya sweetie...those mid day naps, after lunch naps, before dinner naps, during dinner naps, after dinner naps, etc...will all be a thing of the past. Enjoy it while it lasts.

For those who don't know me well...I don't nap that often...though I do enjoy a good nap when I get the chance. Sleep is good!!
