....at nite?

Everyone just goof off and post-whore during the day at work?

ninety09 · 09-03-2003, 06:31 PM

Because people sleep?

Shokan · 09-03-2003, 06:34 PM

The TFP cuts into our masterbation time.

Halx · 09-03-2003, 06:41 PM

Same reason it's slow on the weekend.. people surf at work.

bundy · 09-03-2003, 06:44 PM

... and people have other lives.
i´ve noticed this since i live on the other side of the earth and usually connect when there not many people around.

Kaos · 09-03-2003, 07:29 PM

Stupid job keeps me from posting late at night

nostalgic1 · 09-03-2003, 07:31 PM

i'm on more at night than during the day... simply because during the day i'm either in class or working...

but i'd think that the majority of people here surf and post while being at work... simple answer really...

guthmund · 09-03-2003, 08:34 PM

I have no life

YourNeverThere · 09-03-2003, 09:09 PM

I'm here at night! ya me!

Steph · 09-03-2003, 09:27 PM

I'm here at night. Can't surf much at work . . .

MichaelFarker · 09-03-2003, 09:49 PM

Because the moon's influence interferes with posters' brains causing tidal shifts in post frequency.

Wait, no, it's the work thing.

Hard8s · 09-03-2003, 10:25 PM

Working Swings So I get to post at night and at work!!!!

Meridae'n · 09-03-2003, 10:44 PM

Because motorbikes don't have doors.

phredgreen · 09-03-2003, 11:40 PM

beyond that, the whole computer geek clique seems to be more nocturnal that the rest of the humans out there... for some reason darkness seems to spurn us foward much more than the harsh, punishing sunlight.

I like this answer best.

MrFlux · 09-04-2003, 04:21 AM

I'm always around when everyone in the Northern Hemisphere is asleep due to living on the other side of the world... it's only 12:20 here, I'm guessing it's somewhere around 3-5am where most people are.

Usually a few insomniacs in #tfp to chat to though

Thanks TFP for keeping me awake at work!

Blistex · 09-04-2003, 07:36 AM

Night Is movie time/gaming time/bar time/club time/bowling time.

TFP is best between classes or in the early evening.

Exactly. After the dishes are done and the sweetie says she's going to bed now, the smart TFPer turns off the 'puter and follows.

I agree. I usually check in just before bed for a journal entry, but other than that I've got too many pastimes to take care of in the evening.

rev_skarekroe · 09-04-2003, 09:58 AM

Because the bugs come out at night, and I have to tape my eyes and ears shut so they can't get in.

fallen_angel · 09-22-2003, 06:22 PM

I am on mostly at night but thats cuz i dont sleep and im bored and i am usually at school and doing homework during the day.

how do you join the insomniacs club??

sailor · 09-22-2003, 07:18 PM

Yeah, I would assume it is mostly due to people at work (although with some of the avatars around here, that can be a risky proposition). I tend to check up on any interesting threads in the afternoon or between classes, but my real reading and posting is at night, before I go to bed.

anti fishstick · 09-22-2003, 07:44 PM

i just assume the people that are online are at the titty board :-D mmm eye candy

battlemouth · 09-22-2003, 08:18 PM

i actually do a majority of my surfing at night because its the only time i have a chance to surf

drawerfixer · 09-22-2003, 08:36 PM

I surf during my lunch breaks and sometimes between classes.

At night there's always something to do, and if there isn't, hanging out with people in the dorm is more satisfactory.

BuDDaH · 09-22-2003, 11:53 PM

Mupwah · 09-23-2003, 02:29 AM

I only get to surf a short time in the evening. Usually I have a few meetings in the evening also. I can't at work and I sleep at night since I get up at 5:15am. Not much time to surf I just had about 5 extra min this morning.

Dano069 · 09-23-2003, 07:00 AM

I'm at home and get interrupted too much to be here. Darn wife and kids!

skysooner · 09-23-2003, 11:11 AM

I actually have some free time at work while at home, I'm beholden to the demands of the wife and kids.

manalone · 09-24-2003, 03:03 PM

It's always "nite" somewhere on Earth. But I blame work too... wow, I wonder what impact Halx has on world GDP.

perhaps the TFP is the true source of the slumped economy?? :P

arcane · 10-04-2003, 04:42 AM

i post mostly late at night...i think

tekaweni · 10-08-2003, 03:34 AM

Yeah, Im most active here at work. At night I do stuff.

dnd · 10-08-2003, 04:41 AM

i tend to surf in the evenings, but guessing with time zones and stuff it appears that i'm surfing at lunch time.

Buzz · 10-08-2003, 09:30 AM

I surf in the morning like right now. and when I get home from work since everyone is in bed at 1 a.m.
