Hyper friend

I am in Info Tech with a friend who is "suffering from sleep deprivation" and is jumping up and down and can't stay on one topic for more than one or two sentences. This friend whose pseudonym is Azalea Smith. My other friend "Summer Roberts" just suggested that we use duct tape to tape Azalea to the wall. Azalea is really small and light so it would not hurt her or the wall. I am personally 100% supportive of this idea. However, we have no duct tape. Too bad!
