If you could take a pill that made it so you never had to sleep, but the time you lost sleeping was deducted from your life span, would you take it?
So in other words, you'd die of old age 33% sooner.

There's already a pill for this... It's called speed.

Course correction, my friend.
I'd be struck on the head and become unconscious....whereupon death would find me.

so would this mean that you lived 33% less or you died on time because you cheated death from not sleeping?

Would I ever feel tired? Would I ever feel rested? How would I feel after strenuous activity (such as running a batch)? How would things like Valium/Caffeine affect me?

I would love a pill that made sleep optional- I'd want to have it when I wanted it, like sleeping in on Sundays, but I'd love more time to spend between day job, comedy, and all my various and sundry ridiculous hobbies.
Speed and Meth do the trick, but I also like my teeth and not being insane.

Nope, never tired. You'd feel as energetic as possible in your current health condition

Apparently astral projection does not rate high on your list of life's necessities, Reynolds.
I humbly decline the pill.

Of course. During the time I would gain from being awake I would still be young. I would only lose my older years.
Too easy a decision.

I'm with you, but it looks as if everyone else has chosen the opposite.

Sleepless pill
Yea, it is called not taking my sleeping pills and my anti-nightmare medication. I can stay up for 36 hours before I am completely delirious.

36 hours is hardly 30+ years. We've all been up for 36 hours straight before. Anti nightmare medication? uck...

I would like to hear ESD's answer to this question. I think he would probably go against the grain and answer YES.

No looking back once you take it, youll never sleep again. Throw your bed away.

So the rest of the world sleeps while I'm awake, no thanks.

That was the biggest selling point for me, actually.

Good point, I suppose most people would just fall into a spiral of drinking 24/7.
Now I'm really sold.

I had to do it several times in the Army. But with depression and PTSD staying up too long even with meds is dangerous.

I knew someone would say that, had to be fucking you.
I actually thought of it earlier, but that episode did remind me of it.
So, I'd like to think of it as "Some television writer looked into my thoughts"
fuck you fuckstick.
