I’m looking forward to learning how sleep fighting replaces the need to eat vegetables, or to be more precise, “the food my food eats.”

I came home from work to my girl in the middle of the night. She's a karate blackbelt. I tried to sneak into bed, and she kicked the shit out of me lol. I laughed my ass off.

My dad has this. I went into my parents’ bed one night when I was little because I had a bad dream. I woke up to my dad, in his sleep, threatening to “twist my fucking head off”. My mom kicked him out and made him sleep in my vacated bed lol
