This is like Schrödinger's sex position. (Both in its paradoxical nature and in that it was common knowledge that he was a big fan of asleep style)

This is currently at 69 chubbies.

Nobody fucking change that.

Oh...sorry...I chubbied the comment before reading yours. Damn, chump move.

so it's like you have a wet dream, but your lady causes it by touching you all light like a feather wielded by a butterfly.
saint » neu 2 years ago
that is pretty much the best metaphor ever invented by a human being.
heccibiggs » neu 11 months ago
Why has this been lamed? I think it's a perfectly appropriate example of strip-referencing.
fineoakstructure » neu 6 months ago
Who knows, man. Who knows.
kusu » neu 3 years ago
man i am pretty sure that the lady would just start, and about five seconds into it realize she is in a bad state in her life and leave the dude who proposed doin' it asleep style
zaratustra » neu 2 years ago
dogg on the dictionary of weird things women are willing to do if you ask nicely asleep sex is like a grade E kink
tekende » neu 2 years ago
I don't know what that means.
heccibiggs » neu 11 months ago
Is that like very kinky or not very kinky?
fineoakstructure » neu 6 months ago
Who knows, man. Who knows.

(wow, this works for everything)
johnnyrocker » neu 2 years ago
Some ladies are willing to do asleep-style blowjobs. I know of this for a fact.

The thing about that though is that you do not usually stay asleep.
farqussus » neu 2 years ago
not usually. and the worst part is when you wake up and are busting to pee.
belgand » pro 1 years ago
As someone who sleeps very soundly and has occasionally had a partner try to rouse them with some additional incentive allow me to relate this: the longer it takes you to wake up, regardless of your personal condition and how unrelated your sleepfulness may be, the greater the chance that you will simply be punched very, very hard in the junk and she will sulk and glare at you all day while not telling you why.
scion » neu 1 years ago
As a woman, I can say that this is very true. If you're a dude and your lady is sulky, perhaps you need more work on your sleep-style moves.
belgand » pro 1 years ago
"C'mon baby, I'm not saying your blowjobs aren't rad. You know I've got problems waking up. I mean, it would be seven layers of awesome to be having one right now-- why are you hitting me even harder!"

Holding against a man the things his body does involuntarily is just not at all right. Men's bodies seem to actively hate us most of the time. Sometimes I think we've evolved this way because our bodies really want us to be sleeping out in the yard under a musty old tarp almost every night.

asleep style is truly for the elite

The last 3 panels are so awesome.

alt: "Have you ever heard of Asleep Doggy Style, it is ALMOST impossible."
mo_rose » neu 2 years ago
I love how its ALMOST impossible. I mean what do you have to do to make it possible?
slab64 » neu 2 years ago
Be able to sleep while balancing erect (punny haha) on your knees or feet.
semiquaver » neu 2 years ago
My feeling is that you would have to fall asleep on a soft box-shaped futon or such as that
mrectomy » neu 2 years ago
One of these.

centipede_damascus » pro 3 years ago
I have noticed that my dreams sometimes incorporate things that happen to me while I am sleeping if they don't quite wake me up. This seems like one of those things.
dejavroom » neu 3 years ago
that's the one I always show the uninitiated when proselityzing for achewood. but so their entusiasm gets a little curbing I proceed to show them Teódor's schbling next.
sargasm » neu 3 years ago
So, is there a Coma Style or Epileptic Seizure style? The doors are wide open, here.
wae » neu 2 years ago
yes.

i don't want to talk about it.

I bet you do really.

Girls are also capable of receiving oral sex.

Men have died while having women sit on their faces.
i_love_kate » neu 2 years ago
Oh, right. I confused recipient and deliverer.

Must have been pretty big women, though. I mean, I understand getting caught up in the passion of the moment and everything. But honestly, if you're dying, you'd still probably let breathing take priority.
phthoggos » neu 2 years ago
if you ain't put your spine in danger you ain't done it right.
crumpetsandtea » neu 2 years ago
i second that.
oh and asleep sex is fun. until they wake up and catch you :(
biznart » neu 1 years ago
Either two people took that the wrong way or the right way. I am undecided.
origotoshi » neu 2 months ago
I wanted to chubby this so bad, but I was out. Too many chubby-worthy posts on this page :(
tombsgrave » pro 3 years ago
Asleep Style is a beautiful mystery, like Stonehenge, or Waterhenge, or all those henges, placed in their respective locations with the exact delicacy it takes to get one's Asleep Style on.
wulvaine » neu 2 years ago
For some reason, this comment makes Eddie Izzard pop into my head, where he starts talking about henges.
crinklebat » pro 3 years ago
I don't know if my boyfriend has actually ever read this strip but he is a little bit obsessed with Asleep Style.
thicker » neu 3 years ago
Did you know that asleep style is a real thing
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18983641/
spinynorman » neu 2 years ago
I have seen that.

One time as a "joke" on my drunken asleep Dutch friend a girl pretended to be all romancing him.

The joke was on her when he grabbed her by the hips and manhandled her onto his pelvis, all without waking up.

Seriously, your body is programmed to get it on, what did she expect?
blarghamagarky » neu 2 years ago
that is terrifying
tekende » neu 2 years ago
I agree.
i_love_kate » neu 2 years ago
My god! It could have been any one of us!

You know Achewood is your favorite thing when you see this Savage Love and basically read the first sentence and then run back to read the comic rather than reading the rest of the letter.

An updated link and props for Savage Love.
foetus_punch » neu 2 years ago
Savage love, man. I live in Vancouver, and we're all so chill about it. Sitting on the bus, reading the sex advice column. Except once, I was reading it, and I read a letter my aunt had sent in. She used her first initial and her last name, and I have a distinctive last name, and I just started freaking out.
tropicana » neu 2 years ago
Savage Love is the best part of the Georgia Straight, hands down. Hooray Vancouver.

But... your aunt? Nobody wants to know their auntie's kink. Unless their kink is their auntie.
tropicana » neu 2 years ago
Unless, of course, you mean Vancouver, Washington, and not Vancouver, B.C., in which case, I curse Captain Vancouver and all the cities named after him.
foetus_punch » neu 2 years ago
Vancouver, Washington is a terrible little shit town. You are a crazy person. Go to a dungeon. Seriously, though, it's awesome that there is an Achewood fan in my city. Kind of a weird feeling, though.
tropicana » neu 2 years ago
It is definitely a weird feeling. You could be the person sitting next to me on the bus, or the person standing in line to behind me to buy ridiculously overpriced coffee. It's kind of a paranoid feeling, now that I think about it.
foetus_punch » neu 2 years ago
Let's agree never to meet one another. I'm scared.

molesticide » pro 2 years ago
i have done this in reverse.

i forgot to wipe her stomach off afterward.

when she woke up, she punched me awake.

it seemed like a fair trade.
chomopomomofo » neu 2 years ago
You are so creepy, it's sorta hot.
plozza » neu 2 years ago
Never was a poster more aptly named than "molesticide".

You know it's not supposed to go in her navel, do you
tapaidhnaomh » neu 2 years ago
I woke up one morning and the girl I was sleeping with asked me if I slept well. After fifteen minutes of trying to prompt me she asked about the sex we'd had. Needless to say I was confused.
Needless to say she was pissed.
Needless to say we didn't talk about it much until this comic made it ok.
i_love_kate » neu 2 years ago
OH MY GOD I THOUGHT THAT WAS A BUNNY.

HOLY CRAP!

Greatest. Strip. Ever.
slimpickens » neu 2 years ago
In the last panel, Ray dares to question the world around him, but does not get lost in the mystery and splendor. It doesn't need to have happened, but he'd like to believe it has. Who knows man. Who knows.
anomalous3 » neu 2 years ago
it is easy to do asleep style and think you're just having a pretty cool dream in my experience. It is possible to get it on while you are both asleep. Make sure birth control is involved.
laserblade » pro 2 years ago
This is one of very few Achewood strips to give me a new goal in life. Now I want to die having done Asleep Style at least once.
zaratustra » neu 2 years ago
Well Tina would know.
lateadopter » neu 2 years ago
New relevance may be found in the last line of this Conan O'Brien monologue.
tekende » pro 2 years ago
Asleep style seems like it could be a little dangerous. If you're having sex when you're asleep you might say someone else's name, you know? And then you'll be in trouble even though you were asleep and dreaming when you moaned a harlot's name.
anabanananana » neu 2 years ago
It can be slightly dangerous--I woke my boyfriend up (or thought I had), we started having sex, and a couple minutes later he woke up for real and said, "Ann, is that you?"

Luckily, my name is Ann and I thought it was funny.

Alright I'm getting into bed, and I'll be asleep in ten minutes.

Let me know how it was.

Man I've seen asleep doggy style. Some real hot ebony babe with blonde hair, layin' on her bed that was all pink and white and well-lit. Of course the guy was fugly but that is what porno is you know.

The last three panels are fucking INCREDIBLE. OFF THE HOOK. WHOA.
harvestgold » neu 1 months ago
"Poor Man's" Asleep Style is drinking a bunch of martinis, stumbling off to bed while assuring your girlfriend that you are not too drunk to have sex, achieving an erection, then passing out five minutes into coitus.

The girlfriend rides this out for awhile in the name of science, shortly gets bored, stops, then goes into the living room to have a cigarette and watch some of "The Big Lebowski".

Don't ask me how I know this.
