    "My vision of hell is a lentil casserole."
    "I haven't put on weight — your eyes are fat."
    "Vampire penguins? Zombie guinea pigs? We're done for ... done for."
    These are just some of the bizarre remarks from an British man who sleep talks almost every night, according to his wife.
    Karen Slavick started a blog last February after having her sleep repeatedly disturbed by husband Adam's nightly musings.
    The site has become so popular the couple, who live in Brooklyn, New York, now sell T-shirts with quotes as slogans.
    "For a long time, I just kept my own log of everything he said and laughed over it with our friends," Mrs Slavick told men's lifestyle website Asylum.
    "About two months ago, I put up the blog, more for my own amusement than anything — and then it just took off!"
    Mrs Slavick said she records her husband's remarks and listens to them in the morning.
    The recordings were not edited, she said, and they were not going to be published online because they were "intimate".
    On Monday evening, a sleeping Mr Slavick told his wife: "Your mum's at the door again. Bury me. Bury me deep."
    He later muttered: "Shhhhhhhhh. shhhhhhhhh. I'm telling you: your voice, my ears. A bad combination."
    Mr Slavick followed it up on Tuesday night, saying: "Pork chops are most satisfying. Mmmmmmm. Dangle them from the ceiling."
    Mrs Slavick said she was "furiously typing" on her computer after the batteries ran out of the recorder last Saturday.
    On that night, Mr Slavick said: "You can stop clapping now if you want. Really. You'll need your energy for cheering me later. Shhhhhhhh. shhhhhhhh."
    He then added: "Legs time! Everybody get your legs!" before finishing with: "Oompa loompas don't sing in heaven. They tidy up the clouds."
    Mrs Slavick said the couple considered seeing a doctor but believed the conditon had been "healthy" for Mr Slavick.
    "It's like nightly catharsis ... maybe we should all do it," she said on the blog.

    This guy must lead a fairly sheltered life if his vision of hell is a lentil casserole.

    I can immediately think of at least 3 worse things that hell could be made up of.

    Most people I've heard who speak in their sleep just mumble anyway so this, like the balloon thang, is them trying desperately to get famous.

    I call uber shennanigans. Only the yanks could fall for this, she won't release the tapes "because they are intimate" yet you'll blog the contents all over the internet? Me bollix, either the tapes don't exist or they're so farcically staged they're not worth broadcasting. Shen...na...ni...gans....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 258 ✭✭Tiny Explosions

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,830 ✭✭✭✭Taltos

    actually, it's wuite possible. I do something similar, it occurs just before I fall into a deep sleep, I start putting random sentences together. I once told someone that I had lost the remote control for the airport.
