This isn’t the best way to improve your knowledge of sleep, but it’s certainly a good laugh. Here are some of the top Urban Dictionary definitions for sleep.
1. “You’ve been awake for 18 hours and are now viewing this useless definition of sleep. You’re very tired and your brain isn’t functioning at its normal capacity. The bags under your eyes are starting to weigh you down. It's 1:30am and you have to get up at 6:30am for work. Another coffee won’t help you now...”
Turn off your computer and get some sleep you net junky!!
2. “is better than everything”
Sleep is best.
3. “Something that you're reluctant to do, but don't want to stop after you start.”
Damnit, what did you wake me up for? It's 3 in the morning! I'm going back to sleep.
4. “An efficient way of unnoticeably skipping out on near half of one's life...”
Good morning. Am I 53 already...?
5. “Something I don't get nearly enough of.”
I'm an insomniac, I'd probably be doing a lot better if I was actually able to sleep, instead I'm spending my night on UrbanDictionary.
6. “The ultimate unobtainable.”
Sleep? Yeah, I've done that one time.
Another one we liked was it’s “what humans do during 1/3 of their lives,” and it’s true … yet we’re always wishing we could get more sleep. Go sleep, they said. Get some rest, they said... what is sleep??
