    I have no idea what I do with my arms when I'm asleep, 'cos, eh, I'm asleep at the time.

    I stop my arms from lolling aimlessly around by shoving my hands down my Y-fronts

    I put them in the drawer before going to bed.

    Recently I've found my arms to be a hindrance when I'm trying to go asleep- I just don't know what to do with them.
    I had a similar sounding thing a few nights a few months ago. It was like the arms and moreso the hands were full of energy or something, hard to explain, just very concious of them.

    So I exhausted them by doing exercise, this was pushups & chinups as I have a bar handy. If you think it is similar to what I describe you could try the pushups or just in bed do isometrics, i.e. pushing one hand against the other, or just squeeze the hell out of a tennis ball or a bunched up pair of socks.

    Exactly. Hate having my head raised. I got a special pillow there in Ikea thats flat. It's made for people who lie on their stomach.

    I don't know - I'm asleep.

    When sleeping on my right side I put my left arm behind my head and my right arm behind my back, so that my mouth is in the crook of my left arm and my nose is under my right arm.

    When sleeping on my back I have my arms folded behind my back. On my front I have my arms folded across my front and then wrapped under the opposite underarm, finally clamping my hands between my knees to stop them flapping about and keeping me awake.

    Having sex is a little more complicated, especially if the victim is myself.

    I lie on them, which has created a weird indent on the side of my ribs

    Pick your arse with one and your nose with the other, don't swap though or the snots will taste funny.

    I put them down my trousers and make them choke mr happy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 270 ✭✭bicardi19


    I hide my arms under the bed, just in case I get burgled.
    Its ok though I've got a license for them and its all perfectly legit.

    I put my arms flat down on the bed,
    Or sometimes under my head.
    OP if you need to relax,
    try putting them down your cacks,
    - I think enough has been said.

    I disarm myself before hitting the hay.

    People sleeping on their tummies? didn't realise it was such an epidemic at this point,

    Well I sleep on my side like a normal person, but unlike a normal person I always bend my knees and my left arm resting on my side and the other is on the bed straight going towards my knee.

    That really is stranger than the tummy thing isnt it.

    Not if it's her throat.

    woke up with a dog curled up under my right armpit, I think she lifts them about when I'm asleep so she can find the comfy spot.

    I sleep on my back and cross them over my chest.

    Sometimes I like to wear a Tutankamun costume and pretend I am an ancient Egyptian mummy lol


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,910 ✭✭✭OneArt


    Usually just throw them over the chair. Too lazy to hang them up in the wardrobe.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,187 ✭✭✭✭IvySlayer


    When I was younger I had to share a room with my brother, he would cross his arms and put his hands on his shoulders like a vampire. He was afraid of getting stabbed...

    Try sleeping in a single bed with your girlfriend. It's a pain in the hole.

  • Registered Users Posts: 12,235 ✭✭✭✭Cee-Jay-Cee


    One on my crotch ala black rapper stylee to protect 'them' during the night and i hold a machette in the other...just in case.

    Are you sure your girlfriend is really a girl...sounds like you have trouble recognising genders.
