You know you're tired when...

    For me, it's when....

    - The simplest of tasks take forever to finish and concentrating on anything is extremely difficult.

    - I have zero patience and feel like responding to anyone who bothers me in the following way:



    - I go to the toilet to take a 5 minute power nap

    - I tend to do dumb shít like put my clothes in the bin instead of the laundry basket, put cutlery in the fridge etc etc etc.

    - Go downstairs/upstairs for something and completely forget what that something was.

    - I fall asleep in a non-sleep conducive environment e.g. at a party/in a bar/in the cinema etc etc (has happened).



    I can't function without sleep, power naps are my friend. So AHers, you know you're tired when......



    p.s: If there's loads of typos and my grammar sucks it's cos a nap is imminent. I apologise in advance, my brain is mushy. :P

    Leave the keys in the car door when opening it and wonder where they are when I sit in.

    I was actually very tired today but got loads done. I was really productive. But now I'm at the stage where I really need to sleepies. :(

    I start stumbling into things like as if I'm drunk.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,687 ✭✭✭✭Penny Tration


    I thought of another. When I'm really, truly exhausted, I can't speak properly. I forget words, stumble over sentences, and sound drunk.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,414 ✭✭✭Awkward Badger


    When you just stare at things without even thinking about anything.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,648 ✭✭✭Nolimits


    Not exhausted, but when tired in the morning I tend to sneeze a lot. I have no idea why.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    I am also more productive when tired. Thought process goes

    Need to sleep > have stuff to do > once stuff is done, can sleep > do stuff quickly and well, will have amazing sleep > do stuff well.

    I have a choice of two fun things to go to this evening and having just come in from work and sitting down I'll be doing neither:(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,563 ✭✭✭dd972


    youtyping comes ou t like this


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,959 ✭✭✭gugleguy


    When it's simply not your fault that you dropped your smartphone on the street.
    When it's just not your own fault for taking that selfie, drunk as a skunk and post on facebook . The nicotene told you to do it

    Sleepy-driving is definitely at least as dangerous as drunk driving. F*** me, I've really terrified myself once or twice on the road almost losing focus due to tiredness. So, now I don't drive when sleepy, and if I'm even just a tad tired I'll have a coffee before I set off.

    Don't sleepy-drive, people.

    You have cold shivers running through you. You make little insignificant errors far more frequently. Your ears feel like they will melt. Your body aches so much stairs seems like a chore. The only reason you're not falling asleep is the fact you're forcing your feet to stay standing. Even then your balance ain't what it should be and some folks might think you're inebriated.

    I get cranky


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,290 ✭✭✭mickydoomsux


    I tend to get silly when i get tired.

    It takes very little to make me start laughing and i find it hard to stop. I'll also come out with bizarre statements which in turn make me laugh even more.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,784 ✭✭✭DeanAustin


    When I'm completely knackered and fighting it I usually go hard as a rock.

    My theory is that my body will do anything to get me to sleep and it knows that after shooting my load, I'm usually out for the count.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,089 ✭✭✭✭LizT


    I get really really snappy with people :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 430 ✭✭Pablodreamsofnew


    I go into fits of giggles. It actually hurts because I cannot stop laughing.

    Can't be bothered to have a ****


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,812 ✭✭✭thelad95


    Walking three feet takes all your energy.

    My yawns become something like a hippo giving everryone a good eyeful of my tonsils.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,576 ✭✭✭Paddy Cow


    It's too much effort to walk from the sitting room to the bedroom so you sleep on the couch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,028 ✭✭✭✭--LOS--


    I know I'm tired when I start randomly dropping dishes on the ground or putting weird stuff in the fridge. Coordination disappears

    When I'm really really tired I'm delirious, I feel drunk and I can't stop laughing
