Title: Sleep Texts From Juice Unlimited
Post by: Goose Goose Honk At Me Now on July 12, 2013, 03:22:17 pm
Juice and I are, as you may have inferred by now, buddies. Recently I learned that he has a unique ability I can only dream of possessing.

He sleep-texts.

Here are some of the texts I have received since this phenomenon began.

-----------
We have been the most important things to be able I am going through a variety of different ways to get a good idea

(received as a tweet)
To summon ur 2d gf into this plain 1st build appropriate altar on second rack of oven, turn gas 2 max, insert head n shoulders
------------

Sadly, my phone's deleted most of the others, but watch this space. I've asked him to dig up some other gems, because I know he's got them.

I have no idea how it works. I just know that I wake up in the morning to texts timestamped between 2 and 3 AM that are... well... that.

Once he went to sleep early enough that I got a weird text around midnight or so. It didn't make a lot of sense, so I asked him if he was asleep. His reply? "Not yet." First thing next morning he informed me I'd been lied to by sleep-Juice.

But has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like? (I admit, both of those made me LOL. Funny sleep behavior stories are the best. Apparently I have been known to surf for porn in my sleep, for instance.)

This thread was posted with my permission, jsyk.

Within my family, specifically those of us who share DNA with my father, there is a colorful history of what some might call 'sleep problems.' The present manifestation of my sleepy time shenanigans is fairly harmless, but I started sleepwalking when I was about six and kept it up for around seven years. The earliest incident, at least in my memory, involved me waking up in our neighbor's hay field. I was so young that I didn't register the gravity of the situation, and figured "Well, I guess I'm in a hay field now." 

ETA: From my phone archive, some more sleep texts:

"I made a mistake and delete the following link to the next few days ago on the phone"

"A raw food diet will be a good day to all of your business and look at the end"

Shouln't be too hard, just go to a rock and mineral store and look for some of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apatite
Its nice and brittle so its almost sure to be cracked. Though I have no idea what you'd do with it once you've found it.

I apparently used to bark in my sleep as a little kid.  I haven't done that since, but I still talk, scream, yell at people and God knows what else, that's just what I know from waking myself up.  I woke up on a trip once because my sister threw a pillow at me, citing in the morning that I had been smacking my lips and saying "Yeeeeah" in falsetto repeatedly.  I still don't know what that was about, or how she managed to peg me square in the face from across the room.

On the other hand, when my sister was a kid, she once got up, got fully dressed, put her glasses on, crossed the house to our parents' bed, got in, and promptly went back to a normal sleep state.  She was utterly confused but said she was dreaming about how she had to go outside and find all the hamsters.

My sister's girlfriend talks in her sleep constantly, but I'd have to ask before posting anything she says, it's only polite.  Insane, wonderful stuff, though.

I would go back and clarify that this is secondhand information, but she's actually drifted off while we're all watching movies and mumbled stuff a fair few times, come to think of it.

Title: Sleep Texts From Juice Unlimited
Post by: Delcat on July 15, 2013, 07:48:58 pm
Well, I asked my sister and apparently she does it so much there's a gorrang tag for it on her Tumblr so maybe, here goes!

(Note: My sister is polyamorous, it's her, Smeg, and Ari.)

"No penguins. No penguins, and then the fish…they go flopflopflopflop…with their TAILS."

    Smeg: *slumped over Xbox controller and mumbling into her chest* I...can...play...the fuckin...lute...
    Me: Honey? You're sleeping.
    Smeg: Nmmmnot.
    Me: Yeah, you are.
    Smeg: My...eyes are...open...
    Me: No. No, actually, they are not.
    Smeg: They're....*opens her eyes* HEY.

    Smeg: *asleep on my shoulder* Sammitch.
    Me: Sammitch?
    Smeg: Tasty.
    Me: Do you want something to eat, or are you just saying words?
    Smeg: *happily* Worrrrrrds.

"Chalkboards…evil chalkboards going rahr rahr rahr…with their TEETH…metaphorically."

"Okay, but no polka dots. Or the pig will get it."
— Smeg talking in her sleep (she claims she was telling us to deposit a check.)

    Ari: Ow. Ow.
    Me: What?
    Ari: Smeg, honey, wake up. You're poking me.
    Smeg: Nnnnmmm. Piannnn. O.
    Me: Apparently you're a piano, honey.
    Ari: Smeg, wake up. I am not a piano.
    Smeg: Nnnno. Sexier...
    Me: Ari is sexier than a piano?
    Smge: *decisively* Peanut butter.

"Walruses…no, misunderstanding."

While talking in her sleep, Smeg has been known to affectionately refer to pillows/blankets/us as “soft like bunny kitty."

    Smeg: No, the Odyssey's fine...but I'm glad I'm...not a minivan.
    Me: Me too, honey.
    Smeg: They're too big. There's too much...a lot...there...of them...in.
    Ari: You're not a minivan, honey.
    Smeg: Odyssey comes with...with panthers..should plate them. Chrome...plate them...
    Ari: Chrome plate their whiskers and all?
    Smeg: Wha...no. Noooo. Not the WHISKERS. *flails a hand over to my shoulder* Ari's...she's got funny ideas sometimes...

"Puff the magic parrot lived by the…the…the FOREST"
— Smeg, singing rather than talking in her sleep for once and recognizing that parrots do not swim.  Later insisted, still asleep, that Jackie Paper dies at the end of the original song.

"Noooo…bumblebee…nose…bzzz bzzz bzzz….no, wait, butterfly…butterfly…nose…fwip fwip fwip…fwip"

"Pants. Pants pants pants pants pants. Pant….s."

    Me: Ari, I know what I want for my birthday.
    Ari: Wh--
    Smeg: *asleep on couch* BITCHES.
    Me: Yes. That, too.
