This is a year old, but I have to say that watching the Unus Annus livestream was one of my very few all nighters because it started at like 4am where I lived and I couldn't use an alarm because my sister would kill me if the alarm woke her up, so I just stayed awake the whole 12 hours of the stream

I genuinely DO love hearing them tell the same stories multiple times. Bob's story about playing tuba all night was previously told in Failed Resolutions and Wade's raccoon story was told in Pet Stories. I love getting more context for stories people have told

Bob explaining his all nighter was dangerously close to how most of my all nighters were in high school lmao

Speaking as someone who lives on a street where people habitually speed, speed limits are NOT about your ability to control your car. They are about how fast the people who live on that street expect you to be going, and how fast they need you to be going in order to get out of your way. There have been too many flower shrines near my house, and I'm sick of feeling like I'm risking my life every time I try to pull out of my drive way. Stop it.
Good boy, Mark.

Rewatching this episode to see if I can spot Mark’s highlighted assets

6:22 "that gesture" is actually close-friends in ASL! Mark must subliminally like how Wade called him close friend

LATE NIGHT DRIVING: WILL lull you to sleep with the hypnotic lines and zero external input..  BE CAUTIOUS

Wade's dog's problems being half assed diagnosed as anxiety and not atually looked into is so relatable

In my experience, the "Caution falling rocks" signs in the mountains usually mean that you're coming up on a low visibility area—going around a sharp curve where you see very little road in front of you, bc, y'know, mountain—often a steep one, and you should be ready to stop or switch lanes if needed because a rock has already fallen. Same way deer crossing signs don't mean deer are always gonna cross right at the sign, they mean "Hey, this is an area where deer are more likely to be in the road, excercise caution."

But also just bc I'm thinking about it, if you come to the mountains and you are unfamiliar with the area, please follow the yellow speed suggestion signs when going around curves. The slopes of mountains mean you can speed up really fast, and there's a decent shot your inexperienced ass needs to go slower. Secondary also: if you notice everyone with a local plate is suddenly going slower, keep speed, don't go passing everyone, because it's really easy for cops to "hide" (sit on the road, literally in plain view, but you can't see them through the mountain) towards the bottom of a slope that gets you over 65 without touching the gas.

Wade's raccoon in the tree story is super funny, but also, man, that poor raccoon was probably scarred for life.

Honestly "Push the buttons, blow the thing" is an epic chant lol

25:00 We had this fight with our vet for years about our cat who had dry skin really bad in the spring. We kept trying to tell them he had allergies and they insisted that “pets can’t get allergies” and that it’s anxiety for YEARS then eventually that idiot retired or got fired or something and the new vet gave us medicine to help with his allergies. No more dry skin or itchy butt for kitty!

pulling an all-nighter right now lol, its 6am and this is helping me keep myself awake

I once was so sleepy while driving that I kept hallucinating that every car was a cop car- but as they got closer they'd morph from the cop SUV into a regular car. I still had to drive 3-4 more hours before I got home, so after having a panic attack at every hallucination (my license had recently expired) I FINALLY decided to pull over and take a nap at a Sonic drive in. It was only a 20 minute nap but it was enough!

Watching this while pulling an all nighter feels like get shamed for not working more efficiently.

I… uhhh… bought semi-sweet chocolate chips 😢

I’m insane and have now done a horrible thing

"don't be like me kids, do your homework"
me, watching this at 3am instead of writing my 10-page research paper that's due tmrw: 👀👀

I never had a productive All-Nighter that wasn't tied to video games.
Only semi-all-nighters where I left in the middle and let my friend do the rest since he was the better craftsman and I the assigned driver.

My most recent "All-nighter" was because my dad was in the ER and I wanted to be awake to get updates about what was going on. Took four 15 minute naps on the bathroom floor because it was A) very cold and the bathroom was the warmest place in the house and B) the place with the best signal so I would be able to hear my phone receive his texts. Shittiest night in recent memory, but Mark Bob and Wade made it a lot easier to stay awake.

Otherwise, I never do all nighters. I am God's Sleepiest Soldier. If I don't have at least 6 hours of sleep I'm absolutely useless to everyone the next day. I procrastinate a lot though, so I'll lock in and bullshit things over the course of two hours before I go to bed the night before it's due lol

37:31 Suddenly, all the listening Rain World players begin to collectively shudder in fear.
