Uncyclopedia:Unbreak

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia

Even the best Uncyclopedians need a break sometimes.

An unbreak, unholiday, unvacation, or leave of un-absence is a period when even an uncyclopediholic must be parted from Uncyclopedia, although presumably only temporarily.

The pain involved varies from Uncyclopedian to Uncyclopedian. Some find it easy to endure, whereas others find the separation agonizing and painful. Often the latter find themselves grasping at any opportunity to go online "just to check what's going on".

The degree of coercion also varies. Some remarkable individuals are actually capable of taking a voluntary unholiday: they are to be admired for their strength and assertiveness of character. Some people have to enforce their departure for their own good. Others still are forced into it through circumstances beyond their control: it is often at such times that uncycloholics discover their condition. Reasons can vary too, up to and including:

  • stress
  • busy at work or school
  • going on vacation
  • new puppy isn't housebroken yet
  • toilet got backed up
  • slow internet connection
  • family members needing more attention
  • kids need affection/cereal/ride to sports practice (Note: order may vary)
  • Super Bowl
  • Superb Owl
  • AL/NL Pennant Race
  • Stanley Cup Finals
  • chase for the NASCAR Cup Series
  • March Madness
  • NBA Playoffs
  • FIFA World Cup
  • new xkcd strip
  • sharing computer with others
  • ran out of coffee/tea
  • reading paper-bound volumes (apparently called "books")
  • partying
  • computer is broken
  • tired of Uncyclopedia
  • sleeping
  • PSL
  • Indian Premier League
  • UEFA Champions League
  • finding cheap gas
  • visiting at the library
  • Reaching DEFCON 1
  • GTA 6 release
  • watching YouTube
  • installing a new Linux distro
  • doing your mom
