My brother's over for the weekend and he went to sleep half an hour ago but he just sat right up and stared at me and mumbled something, I asked him if he was awake and he did kind of nod but he was obviously still asleep.
Funniest sleep walking (or something) story ever: It's about my sister who does randomly talk to people or burst out laughing in her sleep. This one time she had her boyfriend over and he woke up in the middle of the night and she was crawling over to the night stand, unscrewed the light bulb from the night lamp and tried to screw it back into his MOUTH. Apparently she just gave up after a while and went back to sleep.
I talk in my sleep
but thankfully all you can make out is yes and no. My rubbish annunciation has never been such a boon. I do tend to warn people now so they're less likely to tell me to shut up hence waking me up.
A girl I used to go to school with
While dozing in the back of her friend's parents car she regaled them with stories of how she wanted this boy to fuck her.
Is regaled even a word?
not one i've ever heard
Dammit
Well then in her sleep she talked about how this boy and fucking. The adults found it funny.
It's quite a common one I'd have thought

Maybe I'm just weird.
i have an excuse
i'm a foreigner
this is the best excuse in the world, for anything ever.
Not too weird
It is a full on regular word. As seen in books!
i used to sleep walk occasionally when i was little
i remember one time "waking up" and all the lights in the house were on, so i got up and turned them all off and went back to bed. The next day my parents told me i walked around the house actally turning the lights ON. But i was so sure all the lights were on already!
Weirdness.
When I was 9
I sleepwalked into a bookshelf banged my head and was found to have bloodshot eyes. My mum thought I was possessed (bless her).
My friend Tom sleep-pissed in his parents airing cupboard.
Most recently my Dad since he came home from working away has spent about 6 months sleeping on the sofa with the TV on (anyone read/seen Gilbert Grape?) and he fucking sleep talks all the time as well as making scary noises like some unnamable beast.
His sleeptalking usually sounds like a telephone conversation or as if he's disagreeing about something.
I have it on good authority that i often hum in my sleep
my partner at the time then played me back what i had been humming on a guitar - it turned out to be quite good so we turned it into a song!
i have been known to giggle in my sleep occasionally
That is officially charming.
*rubber stamps*
That's great
There's been loads of times where I've been in a half-asleep/half-awake state with a good melody in me 'ead. What a pity.
my sister said i used to swear in my sleep
like: "*incoherent sleepy mumblings* ABSOLUTE FUCKING DICKWEED! *incoherent sleepy mumblings* YOU'RE A STUPID CUNT!"
my dad starts fights in his sleep and jumps around and often screams like that caterpillar in the Simpsons - y'know, the endangered one that screams all the time: "AAAAAARGH! AAAAAAAAAARGH! AAAAARGH!... AAAAAAAAAAARGH! AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!"
he also bit my mum during the night once, when they were on holiday. he tried it again the next night, but she punched him. something to do with his age, or something.
I shared a room first year uni
Once my room mate sat up and just said "Going to die". I was actually terrified.
That's fucking terrifying.
Sleepwalking scares the shit out of me.
What happens if someone commits murder/rape whilst sleep walking?
Shirely they can't be held accountable for their actions?
Don't call me Shirely
once a detective investigating a murder realised it was he who had killed the victim
whilst he'd been sleepwalking
I'm pretty sure this happened
in the states recently for rape, like last year or something. If I remember right it was a valid defence. I can't recall the details though, and I'm too lazy to google it. Just thought you'd want to know :)
there was a case in britain a few years ago

i am not cliking on your links
even bbc ones
The lightbulb thing sounds quite funny in a way.
I don't think I've done anything funny in my sleep, though apparently I do sometimes sleep with my eyes open.
TRUE!
i've seen it. infact i've probably spent a good 10minutes trying to talk to you whilst you did it, you creepy fuck!
I grope people in my sleep
If I'm sharing a bed with a friend I apparently touch them up, which is really not very good. I try to sleep alone. I think this may be hereditary, as my Dad once had to share a bed with DJ Speedranch and went touchy feely on him...
I used to be with someone
who used to beat me up in his sleep. Proper vicious stuff too. Not fun times. Didn't help sleeping in another room because he'd just wake up and follow me.
wow.
how long did that one last?
... 7/8 years?
Unfortunately, by the time he got like that, we were married.
this was something that developed over time?
how bizzare..
Well, no.
The more alcoholic and mentally disturbed he became, the more fucked up his dreams became. I can't even begin to imagine what he must've been fighting off in those dreams.
Unfortunately it had a knock-on effect though; it's taken nearly six years for my own dreams and sleep pattern to return to normal/not be the scariest possible kind imaginable.
friday night
i woke up to my housemate walking into my room (maybe 3am) butt naked.
i said his name in a rather alarmed voice as he stood by my bed, and he said "where am i?", then walked back out again.
I once had a full on argument with my ex,
insisting that she 'cover the other', and made her sleep on the floor, all whilst I was asleep. I felt guilty, but it wasn't my fault really, I don't think...
wee'd in pantry
of freinds whilst staying at her flat
Once I had
four friends stay in my tiny room at uni.
We were all asleep apart from the guy that had to sit in a chair as there was no space. He witnessed one of my mates get up, pull up the corner of the duvet, we on the two people top and tailing in the bed, and then curled up in the fetal position in his own wee.
nice and warm, its an old survival trick.
I love wallowing in my own piss.
maybe,
but waking up to find yourself wallowing in someone else's piss? At best that's an unpleasant surprise
or an erotic delight?
I think
we're going to have to agree to disagree on this one
My girlfriend
talks what sounds like backwards, laughs, and often says "HORRID" really loudly in her sleep.
I elbow her in the face in my sleep quite often but she doesn't wake up :D
i tend to say things
as i'm waking up
"have you seen the new batman film?"
"it's much easier to carry on eating"
i once tried to open the front
door and escape out of ourfrench gite
in my sleep.
i was really scared when i woke up lieing on the floor, hugging the door mat
Yesterday morning
I went into my brother's room before work to leave him my keys and I walked in to find him laughing hysterically in his sleep - it was hilarious.
My best friend used to speak fluent french in her sleep. She spoke it as a child but lost a lot of it when she moved to AOuth Africa...when awake she wouldn't be able to speak it well at all.
That was weird.
