Keep Your Mac Awake with Caffeine

So you're sitting in your dorm room late one night with that girl (or guy) you've been pursuing for a while. You're going to affirm your love to him or her by showing a surefire outlet of comedy, your favorite YouTube video.

You watch contently for a few seconds. Just then, your screen dims. This distracts the person of desires. He or she checks the time, realizes it's late and decides to take off for the night. Chance blown!

You should have had Caffeine, the program keeps your Mac awake. You won't have to do that swishy thing with your hand every time you sit down to watch a video. All it takes is a click on a cup of coffee.

How do you use Caffeine to get you out of awkward situations? (Or keep you in them?)

I use it to monitor video rendering an other stuff. Just don't forget it's on. I left it on one night and could not figure out why my iMac's display wouldn't go to sleep! My hot corner for display sleep would only work for like a second, and I was seriously getting pissed off. Then I looked at the menu bar and felt like a moron. So remember to turn it off when you're done.
