  1. "You could wake up if you really wanted to!"
  2. "Wow, you must always be alert if you sleep that much!"
  3. "you always go to bed so early i don't understand why (even though they know you have Narcolepsy)"
  4. "We are having a party - its going to be late why don't you come?"
  5. "I know exactly how you feel!"
  6. "Yeah i always get sleepy as well, a good nap will do you good!"
  7. "You drink far too much coffee"
  8. "WOW, i wish i had Narcolepsy so i could have those drugs"
  9. "Don't fall asleep/ fall down now Sam (as if i control it)"
  10. "Why don't you drink alcohol, i know you say it makes you weak and tired but a little drop won't hurt!"
  11. "I wish i could get away with sleeping that much"
  12. "Narcolespy, oh thats that thing where you just sleep a lot (yeah not to mention the paralysis, the night mares, the RLS, the cataplexy, the ridicule, etc etc"
  13. "Look i don't have time for you to be sleepy right now"
  14. "Look you know it is difficult for us too"
  15. "If you were working as hard as I am, you wouldn't have any trouble staying awake!"
  16. "Well i wish i had time to sleep as much as you but i have to keep myself busy with work, you should think yourself lucky!"
  17. "Sleeping again, are you? What a waste of your time!"
