I wouldn't have lost any sleep over it if I didn't know.

I wouldn't have lost any sleep over it if I didn't know. Actually, if you went to bed early, you would gain sleep ;D |

I always want to countdown like they do on The Heretic Anthem...
10...9...8...7...6...6...6...5...4...3...2...1...and instead of a ball dropping it's a really crappy metal band trying to play triple-time and the lead singer growls with all the majesty and authority of a lion - that just got his balls caught up in some thornbushes.
When will people realize that time does not exist - it's a manmade invention to try and control the population? A day here, a second there...our calendar's not in sync with the natural cycle for a reason.

Just to let you guys know:
The leap second will be at 7 p.m. EST on 12/31, or right at midnight for those 'Crappers who have the GMT as their time zone.

How am I supposed to celebrate this? Ha... DAMN! Good idea. From here on out in this thread, we should post how we'll celebrate this bonus second we're gonna get. I think I'm gonna take that extra time to reflect on my life and my future  |

I'm gonna take that extra second and wish harm upon others, create political threads, and post links to illegal downloads.
Y'know, however much of that I'll have time for.

I'm going to use that extra second to take a little longer to love myself. With my hand.

I"m going to invent a time machine and celebrate the second...over and over again.
Then I'll have time to actually do something.
