Ekkk. I've never ever been on NS General at this time before (5:38am) and damn it's so fuckin' busy. Man, too hard for me too keep up.. Too tired.
Why is this such a popular time? What are you guys doing (or not doing) that means you're on here? eg. just home from work/just woke up etc etc.

We're at work.

It's not that *we* are especially busy on here at this time, it's just that*you* are inconveniently located enough to mostly be online when we happen to be not. :p

We're at work.
Ahh I see. Where are you from may I ask?

Ahh I see. Where are you from may I ask?

(no one knows)

most the people on here now are in the US, Canada and I suppose Europe, so for us its the middle of the day or evening so we are at work, avoiding work, getting home, etc. When I come on at about 4 or 5am my time this forum is basically dead

Heh indeed. I've found in the past it was especially inconvenient with my gaming addiction. To get proper/competitive games I would have to stay up all night. Thank God I'm over that.. Wait, I'm doing that now pretty much.. Blah.

Well, if he's at work, chances are he's on the American continent somewhere. It's around 7/8 pm in Western Europe right now.

The forum sees most of its activity in the evening and at night - about 6pm through to 3 or 4am GMT, because that's when both Americans and Europeans are online. When I come on in the morning (at about 10 or 11 GMT), it's pretty dead. Warms up throughout the day though.

Staying up late. It's 2:52 am here in Osaka.... (yet another pet peeve = people who forget that the internet is global... even on a forum with such a strong international presence - at least in comparison to others I've haunted.)

EDIT: LAUGHING AT MYSELF FOR ASSUMING YOU WERE FROM USA! :D

... Hmm. Yes.. I forgot it's global. How on earth could I forget? Terribly sorry.

No worries mate - see my edit. I'm laughing at myself because I assumed you were from the US. :D

I see. I'm just tired and the sudden increase of posting activity hurt my head and I needed an explanation :).

Time zones, m'boy, time zones.

You'll see I asked why this is such a popular time. I understand time zones, I'm just curious as to why this particular time is so popular.. As I can't be bothered to look at a world clock.

(though I hear that East Germany had to go by Moscow time for a while after WWII...)

I've been waiting for that lol.

And at least yo're asking on a forum, unlike my college roommate fromn Spain's family and friends. Stas's friends and family couldn't seem to grasp the idea that Spain and Texas were in different time zones, and a call at 8 am in Spain was a bad idea when the recipients were typical college students...

Lol yea, I probably could have slipped this question into any number of other threads without causing too much trouble. It's just so much easier this way :)

Yeah, that's pretty much why I usually only come on here late at night.

Dud,e I have nothing to do all day long. This is my home. :p

You know, there's this incredible new invention (http://pineapplebun.o0o0o.org/files/20050801(bed).jpg) - you might want to try it some time. I'm pretty sure you should be able to get it in NZ, too. :p

I've been waiting for that lol.

And that reply just makes it worse LOL...

Lol, fair enough. Good answer.

Never seen that before.. What is it? What does it do?

Sleep is for the weak!

It's quite cool, actually.

You crawl underneath it, the wood starts wrapping itself around you, and then the robot arms come out and transfrom you into a never-sleeping cyborg. The white fluffy stuff is for muffling your screams during the process.

Too bad you didn't like it. *takes away cool cyborg making machine*

Ahh damn. Silly me.

Well, I'm going to get into my bed. Not nearly as cool as the cyborg machine though..
See you all at another amazingly early hour.

The white fluffy stuff is for muffling your screams during the process.You twisted woman! Did you have to remind me of that and send my mind into the gutter again?

*is scared now*

*is scared now*Well, cyborg mutations aren't the only processes in which I can imagine using pillows to muffle things, especially since I've been involved in such processes before...

...um, chocolate?

You've been involved in cyborg mutation processes? O.O

...um, chocolate?
And leave chocolate out of this.

You've been involved in cyborg mutation processes? O.OWomen... Just as obtuse as men, sometimes. :p
And leave chocolate out of this.Darn. I was hoping to distract you enough to forget what I just typed...

Darn. I was hoping to distract you enough to forget what I just typed...

I think you succeeded sir. Good show, if I say so myself.

Women... Just as obtuse as men, sometimes. :p

:rolleyes: Men... Just as obtuse as men, always.
Here I am being all subtle and innocent for once, and it's not even appreciated? Pffft, see if I'll ever try to be a "good girl" again.

And the difference your subtle innocence (or lack thereof) makes to me is what, exactly? :p

:rolleyes: Men... Just as obtuse as men, always.Aw. I'm sorry :(
Here, have a :fluffle: :)
You know, maybe we don't want you being innocent... =o --> =P --> =D

I have no idea what you just asked me, but the way it's worded combined with your well-known mean streak leads me to think that "None whatsoever" might be the correct answer.

*is not sure if pouting would be called for here, but starts pouting just in case*

Meh.

Alright.
I know. *grins*

*points to Laerods last reply*
Methinks you have no business pointing to Laerod's reply - or I *really* didn't understand your post. *walks off muttering about Topher's incomprehensibilities* (<--awesome word! I'm certainly not going to check if it actually exists. :p)

Alright.
I know. *grins*She accepted my :fluffle: :D
Grins eh? Will you accept my chocolate now? =|

She accepted my :fluffle: :D

Actually, I accepted your apology. :p Too many fluffles thrown at me just make me feel stupid.
And I'm munching on my chocolate right now, thank you very much.

Ah, well, I'll just chow down on my apple rings instead. I'm saving my Milka Schmunzelhase for later :D

That wasn't mean, that was a try at being somewhat humble, for a change.
Enjoy your poor purple bunny, though (I'm just jealous b/c all I have are cheap-ass Schogetten).
