Before you kill me I'd just like to say one thing.

I really hope reincarnation is real so come 2040 another 20-something me can bother you with future slang.

Btw, who knew the Australians and kiwis were taking over by 2040? I had money on it being the Japs and Koreans

I was reading up about the 1920s, and have discovered that there was this fad that went on in 1929 Baltimore called "flagpole sitting", in which, surprise surprise, people sat on flagpoles. For days at a time. One week, there were 20 different flagpole sitters sitting all at the same time. The best thing, though, was a letter given to Avon Foreman (the original sitter) by the mayor of Baltimore (because yes, he knew about this, and yes, he visited many of the flagpole sitters).
William F. Broening, Mayor of Baltimore wrote:
The grit and stamina evidenced by your endurance from July 20th to 30th, a period of 10 days, 10 hours, 10 minutes, and 10 seconds atop of the 22 foot pole in the rear of your home shows that the old pioneer spirit of early America is being kept alive by the youth of today.
I love this so much. Because obviously sitting on a flagpole is the epitome of pioneering.

^So many questions spring to mind.

How do they get up there?
What about water?
What about when they need the loo?
How do they not fall off when they fall asleep?
How is there even enough surface area atop a flagpole to support one's derriere?

^^Jeez, I can't imagine doing that in the summer. Oh look at me trying to be a part of the GD. Watch me get lost in 5 seconds.

Getting lost should be the least of your worries. GD does...strange things to people if you stay here too long.

@Aarah guess I'll have to try then! It's the time zone that's the issue in my case, living in Dubai. @Baloth-Kul I'm scared already.

It's okay, dp! If people start auctioning you off, just call for the Mods. Except for Beta. Don't call Beta for help. All you'll get is a smug face and a cheeky line involving cake.

It appears that they used ladders.

It was hoisted up to them with ropes (people were, too, in some cases).
What about when they need the loo?
The book didn't cover this part. I'm quite curious, as well.
How do they not fall off when they fall asleep?
They had stirrups, and just took a 5-minute cat nap every hour.
How is there even enough surface area atop a flagpole to support one's derriere?
There was a little circular seat at the top for them to sit on.

Vaguely spooky phrases, Macbeth quotes, and Zalgo text. Definitely not my best effort.

Dubai? That must be beautiful! Or terrifying. Or both.

That's reassuring.
@Baloth-Kul it is beautiful, the weather...not so much. It's always over 100F.

Yeah, timezones can be a bane.
On the bright side, we all seem to operate at odd hours even relative to our timezone, a lot of the time.
For example, Mars and I are often in here at 3-5am (GMT, (+1) ) and beyond, and Beta seems to not be tied to a timezone at all, and wanders through time like Dr. Who.
So there's a good chance you'll find someone roaming about in here at any given time of day/night.

Oh I was about to get to that. Yeah I also happen to be available at odd hours. Around 2-5am here (GMT(+4) ) usually. Or afternoons

Ha! I'm not a student! Merely unemployed and it's been almost 2 year since I did an apprenticeship.

I'll shut up now and go sit in the corner.

I'm working too on the side. I want to be a makeup artist in the future so I go on shoots occasionally as a makeup assistant to learn more about makeup. I'm also an editor for a new magazine on editorial makeup.
