	'''Biological clock''' is the [[CWC-ism]] that Chris uses to refer to his [[Wikipedia:circadian rhythm\|circadian rhythm]] (his sleeping pattern). Although this is technically not an incorrect use of the term, [[Wikipedia:Biological clock\|biological clock]] is almost exclusively used to refer to a woman's child-bearing years, so Chris just sounds (even more) stupid when he yammers on about fixing his biological clock. Chris most likely confused the term "internal clock" or "body clock" (both of which refer to circadian rhythms) with the term for female child-bearing years. One of Chris's reasons for needing a [[TRUE and HONEST]] [[sweetheart]] is to fix his biological clock. Chris's infatuation with [[Ivy]] can be partially traced to the fact that she vaguely helped Chris have a normal, set sleeping pattern, as Chris regularly extolled Ivy at length for doing so in the videos he made for her.

	He is oblivious to the fact that the real reason he used to sleep during the night in high school is that he used to actually have some reason to get up in the morning. Parents (and college students) know that it's common for schoolchildren ~~during the summer~~ to get their sleep patterns messed up because they now can "stay up as late as they want." Since leaving [[PVCC]], Chris has had no job, few friends, and no life outside of [[mass debating]], making up things involving [[Sonichu (comic)\|Sonichu]], and his [[Love Quest]], allowing him ample free time to stay up all night drinking [[Navy\|caffeine]]. Yet, despite never leaving the house (thus negating the purpose of a standard sleep cycle), he seems to think that it's a perfectly valid excuse for not uploading comics on schedule.<ref>[[Alec Benson Leary Phone Call 2\|Alec Benson Leary Phone Call #2]]</ref>		He is oblivious to the fact that the real reason he used to sleep during the night in high school is that he used to actually have some reason to get up in the morning.

	Chris's nocturnal habits during much of the [[2000s]] appear to be the primary reason that "Attraction Time" during his [[Love Quest]] occurred in the mid-to-late afternoon, and that his [[Captain's Logs]] were recorded late at night or early in the morning. On 23 [[April 2012]] Chris wrote that "I knew I was gone for too long [from [[Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church]]], but my internal clock kept me awake at night... and prohibited me from being a day person",<ref>[[April 2012 Facebook posts#April 23]]</ref> suggesting that his irregular sleep schedule has caused him to be absent from his church for a considerable period of time.
