  • positron, on 10/11/2007, -4/+135I heard that bumps on your head can tell you all about your personality and that the position of the stars when you are born determine your fate. It must be true.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -4/+88In other news, How you are is who you sleep with.
  • devilbody, on 10/11/2007, -0/+57I'm a freefaller after drinking and a soldier when I have a boner.
  • SaintDogbert, on 10/11/2007, -0/+43Dupe story and still as inaccurate as astrology.

  • GMorgan, on 10/11/2007, -0/+38Ah horoscopes. The wonderful belief that 500 million people have exactly the same day every day.
  • Shaunt, on 10/11/2007, -5/+38Definitely just gay.
  • Junkyarddawg, on 10/11/2007, -1/+32Pseudoscience. Buried as inaccurate.
  • theshizzler, on 10/11/2007, -0/+26Wait...I can find out personalities just by peeping into people's windows at night? Hooray pseudoscience!
  • h0merg0mez, on 10/11/2007, -9/+33Seems pretty legitimate to me, personally. I identified 2 positions I can remember over the past few years and they seemed pretty accurate for that stage of my life. Then again, horoscopes always seem accurate so maybe I'm just gay.
  • last_chance, on 10/11/2007, -0/+18buried because it's possible to pass out in ANY of those positions.
  • achoo5000, on 10/11/2007, -0/+17pseudoscience, apply directly to the forehead
  • dirtyfratboy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+16"If you want an insight into somebody's true personality, then try to catch a glimpse of the way they sleep."

    I wasn't watching you sleep to be creepy, I just wanted to know you better.
  • Vodka23, on 10/11/2007, -1/+15Anyone can identify with any of these descriptions. Mistake.
  • Rockout, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14"Freefall (7%): Lying on your front with your hands around the pillow, and your head turned to one side. Often gregarious and brash people, but can be nervy and thin-skinned underneath, and don't like criticism, or extreme situations."

    Oh yeah, well screw you for saying that I don't like criticism.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8That's retarded.
  • peterjmag, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Buried for sweeping generalities...
  • Angostura, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Let's see. Because none of this research has been published in a peer review journal? Because... oh, I don't know ... people change positions several times a night without seemingly receiving a personality transplant.
  • slimnickyy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Stupid, as I tend to sleep in many of those positions at any given time in the evening.
  • chenkersthecat, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5i haven't seen so much stupidity in one place since high school.
  • LADIESCREVICE, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5I once saw a Derren Brown show where 8 people where given descriptions of their personalities. Some cried at how well he knew them, others said they would offer him money for further insights. Turns out, people are more alike then different, as they where all given the same sheet of descriptions. This is just pseudoscience *****. You sleep because you need to. It has nothing to do with your personality.
  • chugger1992, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5I do the freefall, only one arm is under the pillow.
  • Battleloser, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4I don't know about the rest of yas, but when I tend to wake up and change positions a few times a night, and the only position I don't sleep in depicted in the article is that assrape one.
  • SupaFupa, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4This reminds me of a horoscope I once read:

    "Geminis are most likely to have brown, blue, green, or grey eyes."

    OMG!! How did they know I had green eyes????
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4I don't sleep in any of those positions, does that mean I'm just crazy?
  • djempirical, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5Right, but how do you *sleep*?
  • sail191912, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3I'm 1 leg fetus, 1 leg log, 1 arm log, 1 arm yearner, with a twisted body. I guess that makes me a pretzel.
  • Amablue, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3I have multiple personality disorder, which must explain my tossing and turning every night!

    But seriously, this is a load of *****.
  • nobody98, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Burried as lame.
    No one sleeps in the same position all night anyway. We keep changing around.
  • GoatMonkey2112, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3What if you sleep in a Borg regeneration chamber?
  • icebrk, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4not to mention where did they get these descriptions? this stinks of a horoscope as it's flattering and broad enough to apply to anyone... As a lab scientist I'd more like to call this pseudo-nonsense as it's insulting to see the word Science affiliated with this nonsense. Same crap like teaching Creationism, No Scientific Method = NO SCIENCE
  • BurtCokain, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Actually, it was lifted from the BBC. Nice stolen image, too:

  • froggiestone, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3wheres the head-on-the-keyboard position ? my favorit
    All those interesting blogZzzzzz
  • 1ofMany, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Why hasn't anyone looked to see how murders sleep so we can avert disaster before it happens?

    This webpage looks like it was lifted from The Sun.
  • danswayuk, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3How you sleep is who you are...lol Could you sleep in this Yoga position?
    http://www.product-reviews.net/2007/07/16/yoga-could-you-sleep-like-this/
  • dbug, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3Wow, so insightful and true. Best. Article. Ever. AMAZING!!!
  • dbug, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2funny :)
  • play150, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I usually sleep soldier, sometimes freefaller.
    Used to sleep in the Foetus position
  • hulez, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Iv'e adopted a few of those sleeping positions.
    Does that mean my personality spontaniously changes?
  • Gatesophile, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3I think I sleep in the freefall way. Meh, this stuff is always able to apply to just about anybody, really.
  • SuperCow1127, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forer_effect
  • nickdngr, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2or it could mean you're a woman...
  • xDibblerx, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Yes, you clearly have multiple personalities. Damn it, pick a sleeping position and stick with it! You can beat this... :)
  • flashback99, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Professor Chris Idzikowski BSc PhD CPsychol FBPsS

    Emphasis on the BS.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I sleep in the Shocker Position: Two in the Pink One in the Stink
  • aliengoods, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I've tried catching a glimpse of someone while they sleep, and was prosecuted for it. And the gun was for my protection....sheesh.
  • Jadey, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Most people switch positions during sleep- your body is trying to prevent pressure on one part of it for too long. Does your personality change when you roll onto your side? No.
  • techmaster7b, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Doesn't hold true.
  • HsoKinees, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1i tend to have 2 positions.. the first is between foetus and yearner, the other being "the soldier" but with my left inner-elbow(does that have a name) covering my eyes, to protect them from the evils of light :P
  • g30ph, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1When I lay on my left side I get acid reflux.
