Sounds like a real snoozer
OK, I caught this show on TLC the other night all about different people with narcolepsy which as you probably know is a sleeping disorder. The producers had the audacity to name the show "Nap Attack" and the program followed around a few different families showing how their loved ones coped with this disease. One segment focused on a young working-class Scottish girl about 14 years old who wanted to be a dancer. It showed her at her dance recital which she could barely make it through because she kept falling asleep and passing out on the floor. While watching this show I felt like I would be going directly to hell because 1. it was fuckin' hilarious and I couldn't stop laughing and 2. because I just couldn't stop watching it. Her family and friends were unbelievably supportive and tried to make her feel better by trying to make her laugh it off like it was no big deal. The only problem with this scenario is that laughing takes a lot of energy which this girl did not have and everytime she laughed she would pass right out again. Anyway, the point of this post is that its playing again on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. on TLC. PLEEEEASE watch it and tell me I am not a bad person for laughing.

Hey, just read your post on this show. I was saw it when it aired and I couldn't stop laughing. Like you, I felt bad for laughing but when they are interviewing her she just looks at the camera and her head just falls. Absolutely hilarious! I'm trying to find a movie file of it so I can see it again.
