Oh look another in a long line of posts that basically say the same exact thing, with the same exact agenda....

When sleeping.

NAH!!! I find that hard to believe... probably even in your dreams

Only during REM sleep.

Only during REM sleep.
The rest is Willie's time!

Wee Willie Winkie rins through the toon,
Up stairs an' doon stairs in his nicht-gown,
Tirlin' at the window, crying at the lock,
"Are the weans in their bed, for it's now ten o'clock?"

"Hey, Willie Winkie, are ye comin' ben?
The cat's singin grey thrums to the sleepin hen,
The dog's speldert on the floor and disna gie a cheep,
But here's a waukrife laddie, that wunna fa' asleep."

Onything but sleep, you rogue, glow'ring like the moon,
Rattlin' in an airn jug wi' an airn spoon,
Rumblin', tumblin' roon about, crawin' like a cock,
Skirlin like a kenna-what, waukenin' sleepin' fock.

"Hey Willie Winkie, the wean's in a creel,
Wamblin' aff a bodie's knee like a verra eel,
Ruggin' at the cat's lug and raveling a' her thrums-
Hey Willie Winkie – see there he comes."

Wearit is the mither that has a stoorie wean,
A wee, stumpie, stousie, that canna rin his lane,
That has a battle aye wi' sleep afore he'll close an e'e-
But a kiss frae aff his rosy lips gies strength anew to me

This whole willie reference is devolving into gutter talk

You took it into the gutter. My post was elevated by posting the actual Scottish children's poem which wikipedia notes:

The poem was written by William Miller (1810–1872), first printed in Whistle-binkie: Stories for the Fireside in 1841 and re-printed in Whistle-Binkie; a Collection of Songs for the Social Circle published in 1873.[1][2][3][5] In Jacobite songs Willie Winkie referred to King William III of England, one example being "The Last Will and Testament of Willie winkie"[6] but it seems likely that Miller was simply using the name rather than writing a Jacobite satire.[5]

Such was the popularity of Wee Willie Winkie that the character has become one of several bedtime entities such as the Sandman, Ole Lukøje of Scandinavia, Klaas Vaak of the Netherlands, Dormette of France[7] and Billy Winker in Lancashire.[8]

Jager was really popular in the 90s in the L.A. music scene. I always thought it tasted like cough syrup though

The internet is merely a fad, and it will be out of style, soon. You people are already behind the times and so uncool.

Some drink wine and some just whine.

Some drink wine and some just whine.

And some just dust the wine.

And some just dust the wine.

Whine about the dust.

 

[Stevicus]

Whine about the dust.

The dust devil made me do it

The dust devil made me do it

There is no devil. God said "let there be dust and there was dust". God said "let a non-existent devil be blamed rather than me." And it was so.

 

[Brickjectivity]

Whine about the dust.

A minor was dusting a shiner
whose flavoring could not be finer
they plucked off the top
which wine made it pop
blew spit in the air from the whiner
