I think not.
I got home from the dual Pre-Cal/Economics finals at about 1, played Soldner for a bit, and eventually got tired and decided to nap, as I'd gone to sleep at around 4 AM that morning. After informing my rap star brother and male parental unit about my planned respite, asking them to wake me up at 7:00 PM, I tuck in for a good hour-and-a-half.
Although I entered only a state of near-sleep, I ultimately retain all consciousness, though it did save me a lot of energy and is the reason I'm not pooped out already.
I exit this trance state about 45 minutes too early to hear loud BUZZZZZ noises coming from the new quadraphonic 5.1 speakers my dad got for our new big-screen HDTV. I guess the entertainment center bug's bitten him. He is testing the speakers, or something. It's really annoying me.
Eventually mother arrives with my even younger brother who just finished finals, and was ready to indulge himself in SP UT2K4. The BUZZ noises end, and I fade back into the trance.
I awake to the loud-as-hell sounds of mortars splashing into the water and some shouting.
My dad has decided to play Saving Private Ryan. The five speakers and woofer are blasting so loud that a 747 taking off would be inaudible. The MG42s light up and probably alerted the entire neighborhood.
At which point I give up sleep and get out and have dinner. I watch part of the movie and an AC/DC DVD my dad has.
While I do think the new speakers are a quantum leap over our shitty broken old ones, I don't really see the need to have five unless you're playing a game or something.
Discuss.
