Poll: Reasons you stay up at night?

[dalek sec]

The night is just better, easier to fight crime too.

 

[duchaked]

I get more creative...and just have an energy spike around 9ish

 

[SharPhoe]

I wind up having more creative ideas for drawings/writing when I'm exhausted, I don't know why. I hate it, though, 'cause then I wind up sitting up till 8-9AM, even if it is being productive.

...texting... :/

I just adore staying up late, it's so silent and amazing. All the late shows are on, it's great. Only downside, people in my family for some reason think it's a mortal sin to go to bed too late. But I do it anyways!

 

[IxionIndustries]

I like the night much better, and I wish it could stay night for at least 3 days.
I also game a lot at night, because I sleep during the day. I sleep during the day because I have trouble sleeping at night. I have trouble sleeping at night, because daylight always creeps in on me!!!!!! Gah! F*** you sun!

 

[Emeli]

I only stay up all night if there's something I can't put down. A game, a book, a whatever. I'm also a bit of an insomniac.

 

[plastic_window]

I don't choose to do it, I just can't sleep. I'm sure it's not insomnia, because that's a serious problem and it's more immaturity on my part, but I find it pretty hard to sleep when I try.

Although, strangely, I know what you mean about being able to think clearer. I like to think I've written my best work at night but I don't stay up at night to do it, I just get caught up when I have an idea and waste another hour or so.

 

[Sigel]

Insomnia. -_- So tired but can't sleep because my brain hates me. Worse, I will crash and burn after about a week and sleep for like a day and a half.

 

[fender]

Because I like night more than daytime. Sometimes it's just because of Stumble though...

 

[TopaZzz]

because I need to get the days back in the right pace. I can't go to sleep at 6 am and wake up at 4 pm, that's just waste of good sunlight.

 

[j0z]

I mainly stay up late talking to friends over the internet. I have also spent many nights here, on the Escapist.
Somtimes I play games deep into the night. I remember falling alseeo several times as I played KOTOR.
Plus if sunlight touches my skin I sparkle.
Then burst into flames.
And subsequently melt.

 

[Cortheya]

I browse the internet

 

[BehattedWanderer]

I work during the night, graveyard shift. It's a much easier job for slightly more pay. Oh, and it's just a nicer time, where it's easier to think, easier to game (except when you lose a really frustrating fight and are almost shouting at the tv), and easier to go about my normal activities.

[Walrus42]

Someone had to link me to TvTropes.

 

[frank220]

It's the best time to masturba... MASTER bass. Playing it I mean *nervous laugh*

 

[the_dancy_vagrant]

Because of my job the clock is reversed. I start work at 7PM and don't go home until 7AM, so that means that my sleeping hours MUST be during the day. So on my days off I stick to the schedule to prevent any type of readjustment.

 

[Deleric]

Does anyone else feel that being on the computer livens you up? If I get on the webz and try to go to bed 30 minutes later, I can't.

My schedule is pretty horrible because of this. I spend a whole 12 hours in bed often.
