Sleep (another one)

Alien: Human friend, where are you going?

Human: I'm... going to my bedroom?

Alien: I see. And how does a human bed?

Human: ...It's actually named after the central piece of furniture in the room.

Alien: So more like a bathroom than a dining room. What is a bed for, that is so central to the room?

Human: It's what I sleep on.

Alien: Sleep?

Human: You might want to sit down on this one

Alien: Alright...

Human: Humans spend roughly a third of their lives in an unconscious state. We call it sleep.

Alien: So all this other sanity is due to beating yourself unconscious on a regular basis?

Human: What? No, we go nuts if we don't sleep. Heightened aggression, loss of focus, hallucinations, all sorts of stuff. Besides, there's no beating involved.

Alien: I'm confused, again.

Human: We just lay down, close our eyes, and assuming there aren't obvious threats around we lose consciousness as... it's oversimplifying to say our brain recompiles, but-

Alien: YOUR BRAIN DOES WHAT?!

Human: Again. that's oversimplifying! Anyway, after a few hours of high-definition hallucinations called dreams-

Alien: I thought this was supposed to prevent hallucinations.

Human: Oh, we hallucinate either way. It's better to do it when you're incapacitated, y'know?

Alien: Jesus Christ!

Human: Wait, you know him?

Alien: In my language, that was an expletive!
