- NYankee2003, on 08/02/2008, -1/+30Yea, I'm really going to listen to an article "made popular at 2:41 AM"
- appleseed1234, on 08/02/2008, -0/+27That was disappointingly obvious.
I hate going into these articles thinking that they may impart to me some life secrets, but I never come out a better man :( - persaltier, on 08/01/2008, -8/+30While you're reachin' the Zzz-spot, someone else is goin' for your girlfriends Ggg-spot.

- inactive, on 08/02/2008, -10/+25WHY IS THIS ON THE FRONT PAGE?
Digg, stop it, I'm starting to get pissed off.
It's a couple of paragraphs of fairly useless information.
AND IT CONTAINS NO LOLCATS.
honestly, wtf. - Natnie, on 08/02/2008, -0/+14He's right; it works.
- hwy9nightkid, on 08/02/2008, -0/+136. Do not become a computer scientist
- adayahead, on 08/01/2008, -0/+13In many cultures, sleep patterns and settings are remarkably different; crowded rooms, lots of noise, sleeping in 3-4 hour segments instead of "straight through the night."
- benroy, on 08/02/2008, -0/+12I R SLEEPING IN UR BEDZ!
- LinkGCN4, on 08/02/2008, -0/+11Galaxylander beat me to it. No pun intended.
- benroy, on 08/02/2008, -1/+12I'd like to see the Men's Fitness guide to driving. It might look something like this.
1) Try not to hit any other cars. The driver of any car you collide with will probably not appreciate you high-fiving your passenger and referring to them as a 'ten-pointer'.
2) Part of being a proper driver is the ability to let others that you are approaching their location. Always have your car stereo loud enough to be heard at least three blocks away. By dialing the bass to max is a sure-fire way of letting people know that you exist.
3) While on the freeway, follow the car in front of you as close as possible. Because any good driver knows that the closer you are to the car in front of your car's bumper, the faster you'll get to your destination. Regardless of the fact that the car in front of you is going the same speed as the car in front of them.
4) If you drive an expensive car, let others know it by taking up two parking spots. There's no better way of saying 'I make more money than you do' than by utilizing a four-foot buffer zone in a crowded parking lot. And if someone slashes your tires or smears feces on your car, it just means that they're just jealous of your sweet ride.
5) Talking on your cell phone while driving is a sure-fire way of letting others know that you're important and have much better things to do other than share the road with puny mortals. If you have a 'blue tooth' earpiece, only use it outside of the car. Thus ensuring that anyone who thinks that you may be talking to them instead of an electronic device concealed in your ear will feel like a jackass when they ask you if you are talking to them. - Galaxylander, on 08/02/2008, -0/+10Well, that depends on what you mean by warm milk...
- praisethelard, on 08/02/2008, -0/+10It's like a cup of warm milk.
- evan3168, on 08/02/2008, -0/+9nature's sleeping pill
- brettruffenach, on 08/02/2008, -2/+11I'll combine all the secrets into one:
Smoke weed. - rccarter, on 08/01/2008, -0/+7Saved By The Bell is on...
*yawn*
Time to wake up. - evnglion, on 08/02/2008, -0/+6What is the point of sleep if you can't watch porn, play video games, or sit on digg for endless hours at a time?
- Pronation, on 08/02/2008, -0/+4#7 Get off digg.
- trickyt, on 08/02/2008, -0/+4If I miss the first step then I hit an infinite loop running so fast that I never actually get off the computer. And.. and.. Must.. Compile... Linux.. Kernel.
- sockpuppets, on 08/02/2008, -2/+6Beer. Lots and lots of beer. Plus there's a dutch oven bonus for your significant other.
- santaliqueur, on 08/02/2008, -1/+5Somehow I think smoking weed is the answer to most situations you are faced with.
- lex0nyc, on 08/02/2008, -1/+5... when you can't cup something that produces warm milk.
- electricwaffles, on 08/02/2008, -0/+4It's on "Five secrets to not getting sleep and being okay with that"
- o0justice0o, on 08/02/2008, -0/+3But dude it's a LIST, that makes automatic digg front page
- lex0nyc, on 08/02/2008, -0/+3Dammit, now I'm caught in a loop.
- Halsfield, on 08/02/2008, -0/+3real tips to help you sleep better:
1. Ambien - if you do get on this make sure you never ever drink and then take ambien, or mix painkillers and ambien, or all 3. great way to go to sleep and never wake up.
2. Don't leave the tv/pc/music on when you're trying to fall asleep, even if you're not paying attention to it , the visual or auditory stimulation will keep you awake and keep you from getting REM sleep that really helps you get restorative sleep.
3. Exercise about 2-3hours before you want to sleep, it helps burn off energy so you are sleepy when you want to get in bed. Exercising closer to bedtime will keep you awake because of the endorphins. - synystar, on 08/02/2008, -1/+4Ewwch...I'm going to think of this thread every time I drink warm milk.
- praisethelard, on 08/02/2008, -0/+3Well, I wake up in the morning,
And the 'larm gives out a warning,
And I don't think I'll ever make it on time. - namelessXsilent, on 08/02/2008, -0/+3ding ding ding. we have a winner
- cl0n3x, on 08/02/2008, -0/+3The day I stop using the snooze alarm is the day this article stops becoming so painfully obvious (never).
- namelessXsilent, on 08/02/2008, -0/+2that is definitely going to be copy and pasted to Men's Fitness and hit the front page
- chrisinsocalif, on 08/02/2008, -0/+2Where is "get laid?"
- P1um, on 08/02/2008, -2/+4giggity
- chrisc3, on 08/02/2008, -1/+3I dont know how i'd ever wake up in the morning if snooze didnt exist....
- farfromsubtl, on 08/02/2008, -2/+4FTA
Never Fall Asleep in Front of the Television
Proper head and neck alignment is essential for getting a good night's sleep, and the only way to get enough support is with a good pillow and the ability to stretch your body out fully.
Dim the Lights
Replace those 100-watt lightbulbs in your bedroom with 45-watt bulbs. Lowering the lights about a half hour before bed will help relax your body—and hers.
Lower Your Thermostat
Or just buy a good fan. Keeping the temperature of your bedroom between 68 and 72 degrees will prevent you from reaching for another blanket or waking up drenched in sweat.
Get Into a Routine
Going to bed at around the same time each night will help you regulate your body's rhythms and fall asleep faster.
Stop Snoozing
Hitting the snooze button might seem like an easy way to capture a few more minutes of glorious shut-eye, but those extra minutes are not enough time for you to return to a deep sleep. Get your butt out of bed already, or set the thing for when you really need to get up.
Wait... these are SECRETS?! Lamesauce. - Gee1004, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1Actually going to digg will help you sleep. Looking at all the iPhone stories will make you sleepy...lol
- PimpSetBitch, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1smoke weed?
i guess it wouldnt work because you would be up with munchies - voze, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1dugg for the top gun reference
- synystar, on 08/02/2008, -2/+3Thank God. I need the sleep. I'm not a machine lady.
- Niz1, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1Why do article always say snooze is bad, ok well it maybe true but it works for me, the way see it im not trying to get extra sleep, I just need to prepare to wake up its a bit of a shock to have to wake up as soon as the alarm goes off, i wake at 7am everyday but set the alarm to 6, and i snooze 6 times, if i press the snooze twice / three times it adds 10 minutes so i can even have one 60min snooze instead of six 10 min snoozes, damn sounds lame lol its one of those things you do but never talk about.
- 8ballblack, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1Actually, I've seen a lot of "better sleep" articles on digg, and I have tried many of the "solutions" but I do not happen to feel any better results. This is probably just me...I think I may have to consult a doctor lol.
- AWBoy666, on 08/02/2008, -1/+2Digg doesn't know/understand the saying or occasion.
- koreaski, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1drink your milk and say your prayers and you can sleep like a dick van dyke
- Halsfield, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1if you really got something useful from this article, good for you, but i doubt it. people digging worthless stuff like this up is making this site pointless. I can go to yahoo news and digg through 20 pages of articles and go to lolcats and get about the same info. hell, if i go to reddit i at least get these articles when they first come out instead of days later.
if your response is gonna be "well dont come here" , the whole point of giving criticism is to hopefully change the way things are, but if the majority of diggers are going to keep digging crappy articles up, then yea, i will be going elsewhere. - Halsfield, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1im right there with ya, these crappy articles are flooding digg. i go through about 30 ***** articles to get to 1 that i can digg. The whole point of digg is that in theory, people digg down the stupid crap and digg up the good stuff, so we get a top 10 full of great articles. instead people digg stuff like this and then i have to go digging for something worthwhile to read.
- AWBoy666, on 08/02/2008, -1/+2Ambien works well.
- NYankee2003, on 08/06/2008, -0/+1eh, more like maxim
