WASHINGTON—Meandering through the National Mall as they forgot where they were headed, thousands of recently concussed Americans marched on Washington D.C. Thursday demanding the right to sleep. “Every citizen deserves to go night-night for just a few minutes without being shaken awake by those who would insist we keep our eyes open,” said Vernon Wheeler, one of nearly 10,000 dizzy, vomiting protestors who say they’ve been treated unfairly since suffering severe head trauma. “It’s time for people to stop holding up three fingers in front of our faces and insisting they’re actually holding up one. If we want to stare at bright lights or lay down in the street for a quick nap or touch the blood coming out of our ears, that’s our right as Americans. It’s nobody’s business but our own if we know where we are or who the current president is.” At press time, D.C. police were dispatched to break up the march after hundreds of recently concussed protestors tumbled down the stairs of the Lincoln Memorial.

“more weed!”

Apparently I got really annoyed at my mum when I had a concussion. She woke me up every 10 mins to check and I would say 'I want sleep!'. Too bad I can't remember it...

I are slippy, let have nap, no warry

Natural selection

I know that this is The Onion and all, but just to let everyone know, it's a myth that people with concussions need to stay awake, you're actually supposed to go to sleep.

Stay woke!

Remember long ago when someone got a concussion people would slap their face a jostle their head around so they wouldn't fall asleep. I don't think that helped.

I empathize! SLEEP DEPRIVATION proved to be the most effective of the ENHANCED INTERROGATION tortures employed at Guantanamo during the Badass Bush years....

Amen, Onion.

Goodnight America. 😴✌

After 4 hours of thrash metal there's nothing better than a good sleep.

Chants of: 'I dont know who I am!' 'Where are we!?' 'Im so sleepy!' 'I can't unlock my phone!'

I've stayed up so long to see this

No football players?
