    I don't respond with LOL unless I actually did in fact LOL'd. Is that weird?

    People who think they have the driving skills like characters in movies. No, Brad, you are not Brian O'Conner from "The Fast and the Furious," or Jason Bourne, or Bullitt; you are more like Rain Man. Relax, and get back in the right lane.

    I hate the snooze button.
    Really, what’s the point? If you set your alarm for 6:00 and hit snooze 3 times before getting up, why not set your alarm for 6:30 instead?

    It helps me to move my nearly 16 year old child.  Yes, I am that mom who wakes her kid up.  If I didn't do it, she would sleep until noon.  She's not the morning pop-tart that I am.

    It's a time-taking process for me to wake up, and the snooze button is one of the greatest inventions ever in my experience. I cannot hit the alarm and spring out of bed in one go.  Most mornings I don't even realize that I hit the snooze the first time, it's just a subconscious reaction. The second time the alarm goes off is usually when my awareness starts to kick in but I'm not awake so I'll snooze a 2nd time. Then when the alarm goes off the third time I get up & start getting ready for work. For me, setting the alarm a half hour later would just start that process a half hour later.

    I've heard people say that, but I never understood it. I hate getting out of bed so much that if I wake up early I just lay and dread having to get up that I just end up getting up early. I've always had room mates, and now my wife, who hits the snooze about 3 times and it drives me crazy. It makes me get up about 30 minutes before I need to. Hearing an alarm every 7-10 minutes doesn't allow me to relax and enjoy the last few minutes of sleep.

    One of many lessons from Kramer 101:

    Kramer: Alarm clocks? I never use 'em. Don't trust 'em.

    Jerry: What do you do?

    Kramer: I have a uh...mental alarm. I set my head for... quarter to seven and...

    (makes sound with the lips - "pop!") ...I get up!

    Jerry: Always works?

    Kramer: It never fails. See, it's based on your body clock. See, your body has an internal mechanism. It knows what time it is.

    Ditto. I NEED the snooze. Alarm goes off the first time, it's the "Oh fuck, noooooooooooooooooooooooo" stage of waking up. Snooze for real - I go half back to sleep. On the second round, I am able to face reality better, and really start pulling out of sleep mode. Snooze but not really - I am awake enough to start thinking about the shit I need to do that day. By the next time the alarm sounds, I'm more anxious about what I need to get up and do than I am tired, and that gets me out of bed. :lol:

    I am guilty of having said, "Forthcoming."  My apologies. 

    It is HFD's fault that I think of him now every time I leave time on the microwave.  It's like someone waving the no-no finger at me.  :lol:

    I'm the opposite, thats why I hate it. Alarm goes off, if I hit snooze all I can think about is how I only have 7 more minutes. I never get back to half sleep or anything.

    People who dress inappropriately for the weather, it’s 38 degrees and you’re  wearing shorts you’re an idiot.  I am convinced these same people will only wear shorts when it’s over 75 and under 45 degrees.

    people who don’t take their trash cans back from the curb after trash is picked up for a day or more
