    I swear people should be required to have a babysitter if they're this damn stupid. I see a potential business!

    I simply cannot sit for more than 2-3 hours at a time playing games. My ass hurts - not to mention; hunger and thirst creeps in.

    40 hours non-stop. Ah nee ah! Not even if I was paid to do so, would I!

    I've done 40+ hours at events and the like.

    Even though they were all spent awake, I did not clamp for the 40.
    I went for smoke breaks(I pace when I smoke), had some nom and some drink.
    Hit the head, that kinda thing.

    It's not bad doing prolonged gaming sessions. 10-15 minute breaks every hour makes it fine.
