narcoleptia

An eating disorder--sister to anorexia and bulimia--where people starve themselves. Dissimilar to anorexia, victims of narcoleptia (narcols) choose to sleep when a feeling of hunger arises. Common symptoms include exclamations of exhaustion around breakfast, lunch, snack, and/or dinner time, interchanging the word 'tired' and 'hungry' in conversation, as well as passing out at the sight, smell, or sound of the food network, fresh food, or oven timers.

(1) I think Lauren is a narcol because I talk about food and she starts to snoar :/

(2) "I'm tired, can you make some baked brie?" "Matt!! Do you suffer from Narcoleptia???" :O

(3)"You guys are Narcols!" "David, just because we sleep when you make David's Potatoes, does not mean we have narcoleptia!" >:O

Bar Narcolepsy

Bar Narcolepsy, often shortened to Barcolepsy, is a disorder characterized by a sudden and uncontrollable urge to fall asleep while out drinking with friends. Bar narcolepsy is often triggered by excessive amounts of alcohol.
Bar narcoleptics can often be seen sleeping on couches, stairwells and in extreme cases the floor.

Bar narcoleptics are usually accompanied by friends who try and escape the attention of the bounces by holding them in and upright position and pretending to engage them in conversation.

Friend 1: It's your turn to watch Emily, she has fallen asleep on the couch again.

Friend 2: I think she might have Bar Narcolepsy.

narcolepsy

(n) a chronic and usually hereditary sleep disorder in which the person affected will suffer spontaneous bouts of sleep (or "sleep attacks") during the day. Symptoms include: extreme sleepiness, typically followed by sleep attacks and last for fifteen minutes; dream-like hallucinations; sleep paralysis, where you cannot move when you start to fall asleep or just after you wake up; and cataplexy, which is an abrupt loss of muscle tone (basically, your muscles "fail you").

The disorder is not fatal, but can be depending on the situation you find yourself having a sleep episode. There is no cure for narcolepsy at the moment.

Narcoliteracy

A cognitive impairment in which you randomly fall asleep while reading any type of literature. The period in which the subject sleeps is roughly around 15 to 30 minuets. It will kick in while reading any type of novel, newspaper, or short story. It will also occur during tests/reading exams. Less than 1%of all humans have been diagnosed with this impairment and there are no known cures. It is highly suggested that people with narcolituracy should only read in uncomfortable positions or stick with books with more pictures than words for this raises chances of staying awake.

Jimmy flunked his final reading exam because his damn narcoliteracy kept acting up.
