Is Sleep Wasted Time?

[Omnislash07]

I'm kinda bored at the moment and I'm gettin ready to go to bed in about 30min. and a question that I've had for a few weeks popped into my head. Is Sleep Wasted Time?

I think the time spent sleeping is a huge waste of time. I mean 8 hours out of a 24 hour day is supposed to be devoted to sleep (yes i know most dont get that much and i dont care that is how much your supposed to get). That is 1/3 of the day. I think that if a person could find a way to make it so that people could sleep less, like 2-3 hours a day, or to make it so we could stay up indefinetly they would become rich. Sometimes I just stay up all night and look at the sky because I live in an extremly rural area and it is very peaceful at night. It would be nice to be able to do this all the time without worrying about falling asleep in class the next day.

So who agrees with me that sleep is a waste of time? Or do you like to sleep and find it peaceful or whatever? I want to know whether I'm some weirdo or if other people agree with me.

...Most people sleep to recharge.

I personally love sleep! It's a helluva lot better than this 'life' thing everyone is so on about

[Reine]

yeah man, sleep is the awesomeness

If people were solar powered, then of course sleep would be a waste of time. As it is, I'd rather get the sleep I need than be unable to function during the day.

Sleep is glorious. Dreams are also the greatest. I wish we had more time to sleep and dream. :D

Sleep helps your body stay healthy and helps your mind process and organize thoughts.

[Del Murder]

It's not a waste of time because we need it to be healthy. I just wish we needed less.

If i could i would sleep 24 hours a day, cuz sleep owns

Seeing as sleep is a natural bodily function that is necisary for living, I don't think so. And sleep is the only time I can relax anyway.

[Ouch!]

Sleep is a great way to pass the time. For example, I'm going to go to sleep in the next ten minutes to shave time off of my 34 hour wait until I can go to EB games and pick up Kingdom Hearts II with minimal boredom. =D

How am I supposed to have adventurese in slumberland if I don't lay in bed and close my eyes once in a while? I love dreams. Therefor I'm fairly partial to sleep. It does get in the way once in a while. But I certainly wouldn't forsake it

[Markus. D]

I prefer to get as least sleep as possible.

so I am fine with 6 to 8 hours of sleep.

What he said!

If I could stay awake for 24 hours a day, I would because I do believe that sleep is a waste. If I didn't need it to function and stay alive, I would never sleep.

I aggree. The only time I would sleep was when I was bored.
