    Is that by choice or because so much of our lives are dominated by it. I often can’t even park my car without having to use an app to pay for it. I can’t go to a restaurant or pub without having to scan a QR Code to get to their menu and order.

      It’s just a BS survey by an ISP, I wouldn’t read too much into it. Aside from anything else it would imply that 29% of adults in Ireland don’t sleep for more than an hour at a time…

        It’s required by law in Ireland that you wake up every 30minutes to pray and curse England. You might as well check your emails since you’re awake anyway

    29% of adults must not be very big on sleeping.

    I mean I went something like 8 or 9 hours last saturday without it then I was on for an hour or two and then I slept for like 12 hours because I was exhausted.

    Was this part of a survey where they get the “survey says” answers on Family Feud?
