WHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS WEBSITE I AM THINKING OF
I woke up from a deep slumber in a cold sweat about fifteen minutes ago (it's about 4:25 a.m. currently) with the memory of a website similar to BYU's 100 Hour Board that was also a BYU-sponsored website (but much less well-run). Uh, well, see, the problem is, is that I can't remember what it's called and I KNOW it existed and people talked about the 100 Hour Board on there every once in a while and it's 4 a.m. and I think I'm insane and guys I KNOW IT EXISTED. Why do I know it existed? Because I totally remember re-finding it over the summer and discovering that I had actually been a writer on *that* website when I was... like... 14. It was less-than-100-hours that questions got answered in, the answers weren't always super legit, and *how was I a question answerer when I was 14 how did this work what was this and WHY IN THE WORLD DID I STILL HAVE QUESTIONS THAT I HADN'T FINISHED ANSWERING MANY YEARS AGO AND NONE OF THE MODERATORS FIXED IT*

Re: WHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS WEBSITE I AM THINKING OF
I promise this is a real thing. The awful guilt in my soul that comes from not finishing those answers long ago makes me *know* that it's a real thing.
And dang, that place had *no* organization to let answers go for years without finishing being answered. That's all.
EDIT: Guys, Pilgrim thinks I'm crazy.
I'm not crazy.
This is a real thing.
I checked it out over the summer and was like "ehhh can't handle this PLUS the board, and anyways... it is mostly abandoned...."
but I can't remember it!

http://www.cougarboard.com/ maybe? This entry from 2006 was interesting -
I wonder which two writers he was referring to...Linguistics04 wrote:Ouch.. Dated two girls that wrote for the 100 hr
board. They were two of the most intelligent, yet most disturbed women I have ever met. I swear that last girl was one of them, because of her thoughts on telling guys what you really think.

As for Pilgrim doubting your sanity, see this from board question 66069.

Re: WHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS WEBSITE I AM THINKING OF
At 4 in the morning, everything seems so real. Last night I was talking nonsense in my sleep and my wife kept laughing. I knew she thought I was talking in my sleep, and I kept trying to make her see that what I was saying was important. Turns out I was worried my daughter would eat suckers if we left them on the floor.Yog in Neverland wrote: It *was* 4-something in the morning. It makes sense for it to not make sense.

I'm still pretty sure that it really was a thing, but what WAS it????

Hee. My old roommate, Genuine's little sister, had some great sleep confusion.
One night, after having been asleep 2 or 3 hours already, she told me that she couldn't sleep. "I have hotfoot. I'm a Hotfoot Duck!" When I asked her what that was, she said "oh, you know, like Darkwing Duck. But with hotfoot!" I accused her of being still asleep, she said she wasn't, and I told her the fact that she thought that "Hotfoot Duck" was a hilarious joke proved she wasn't firing on all cylinders. Still trying to prove how awake she was, she indignantly replied "it's not a joke! It's a social commentary!"
Other gems include the time she woke up to say "nudity?" And then realizing she'd said it out of nowhere, tried to justify herself with ". . . is that what was just said?" No, it was not. It has been dead silent in this room for hours.

Wait, GA, you wouldn't happen to have a non-anonymous blog about you and your husband sleeping, would you?

Yup, that's us. We haven't posted on it in forever, partly because I keep forgetting to write down our funny conversations, but then also because they wouldn't make sense to anyone else, or they'd be hard to explain without making one or both of sound like terrible people. We had this hilarious exchange a few weeks ago that revolved around getting hit in the face, which out of context just sounded abusive, so I didn't know how to write it up, and now I've mostly forgotten what it was.Giovanni Schwartz wrote:Wait, GA, you wouldn't happen to have a non-anonymous blog about you and your husband sleeping, would you?

I'm SO tired. I walked like five million miles. And I had an epic Utah-style 12-hour date. Is this thread real life??
Re: WHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS WEBSITE I AM THINKING OF
Oh did I mention the six to ten miles were in a BLIZZARD all day?!
