I mean like: How long does it take before you brain goes: oh shit, I exist… I remember, I am a living thing, human, my name is [■■■ ■■■] and my current location is [■■■] and oh shit I’m late for [work/school/event] (or if its weekend, its like: oh… nothing’s happening, life is boring)

Like you know what I’m saying, like the Terminator HUD thing after it reboots and it takes a few seconds before it can identify a target and then recognize its mission… that type of thing.

Or do you wake up and within 1 nanosecond realize the state of your existence?

    That’s wild! I never heard of that law. I do remember in boot camp back in the '90s, they told us that people could get kicked out if they snored too much because it could potentially give away your position to the enemy. That being said, I knew plenty of soldiers who snored, and none of them ever got kicked out for it.

      I will say he died in '99 and this occurred in the early seventies so I have no evidence. It was just what I was told and I know was definitely in the military in Vietnam so…

          Funny story, there were problems with his paycheck in the military and would get checks of like 10 cents. His mother got diagnosed with leukemia and he made a deal to forgive all the unpaid wages to get out a year early to care for her. He got out, came home, found out his mother had his horse…“fixed”. He didn’t talk to her again for 10 years.

          She ended up living longer than he did.
