Don't worry... I'll keep your secret. It's not like anyone on the GB will ever find out.

I read somewhere that children that sleep with night-lights end up with inferior night vision. Fortunately, flashlights have been invented.
 
When I was a kid I had a bright red crucifix nightlight which I was terrified of. Very fucking sinister.

Mine was this cute red barn. Pretty sure I broke the damned thing during one of my drunken hallucinations as a baby.

Maybe I was possessed by the devil as a kid cos as soon as it was switched on I shot under the covers in fright.

A barn would have been much nicer.
 
I had this exact nightlight as a kid. I wasn't really scared of the dark or much else back then but I would only occasionally get sweet cereals like this and when I saw the offer for the night light, well...I fucking wanted it. My mom was all, "That's nonsense, it'll be unsatisfying, they are trying to trick you into eating more cereal..." and all other "Eat More Ovaltine" truisms about things like this. But she agreed to go forward with the hoop dance required to get it, probably to teach me a hippie lesson about how I should distrust giant companies. Well.....after all the hullabaloo it came in the mail and it WAS FUCKING FANTASTIC. Just as advertised, worked literally for years. I would periodically make a point of making my mom turn it on for me, just 'cause.

I have a rock salt light that doubles as a night light. It soothes me with positive salt ions.
 
Nightlights are for pussies. Baby blankets are where it's at.
 
And also... not to rub things in or anything... but I sewed glow-in-the-dark stickers to my blanket. So really, it's a blanket in the shape of a nightlight... that glows.
 
Last year, I slept with skype connected to Byron on :D
Now I sleep being watched by Mr. Bear and Moo

When I was little my dad got me an argon nightlight, it was purple, which was my favorite color.

That made me laugh.

I went through the same exact thing with my Mom over a Hawaiian Punch wristwatch. It worked great until at some point I got is wet somehow. It was cool. At 9 o'clock the glass of punch was upside down. I dunno why but that always cracked me up.
