Sleep Paralysis

A state of sleep between REM and being conscious. It feels similar to epileptic seizures (because I have had epileptic seizures AND sleep paralysis). Some people hallucinate, seeing monsters who are called "Sleep paralysis demons" and often depicted at the foot of your bed or sitting on your chest. Please note that not EVERYONE witnesses 'demons.' During Sleep Paralysis, you are fully conscious and can think clearly, but find EXTREME DIFFICULTY in breathing (even though your real body is still breathing) and you are paralyzed (you can't move any muscles). Sometimes, you may see yourself from a 3rd person's POV, and different individuals may experience the sensations of falling, being dragged off of the bed, or a heavy weight on their chest. During this time, your body is tensed up and your eyes are wide open, from a viewer witnessing the event. Normally, when a person wakes up after having sleep paralysis, it is a very memorable incident, unlike a dream. Treat sleep paralysis as a scary lucid dream. Sleep paralysis can occur as one is falling asleep OR as one is waking up. If a witness sees your body shaking violently during sleep paralysis, you may have had an epileptic seizure. Other than that, sleep paralysis is relatively harmless but can be scary for even someone who has had it multiple times. Personally, I think it's a load of BS when people say that laying on your back makes it more likely to have sleep paralysis.

Sleep on the Throne

A way of telling someone you would like to have sex. If someone asks you this, they see you as a very respectful person. Someone even higher than themself in the social setting. If someone is to ask you this, it is a great honor. It also means they are looking to pleasure you more than they are trying to pleasure themself. If someone is to ask you this, I would say yes.
OH MY GOD, Jeremy asked me to sleep on the throne with him.

drunk sleeping

Drunk sleeping is when you don't have rem sleep therefore you're not really asleep and you're still drunk. It's not conscious or unconscious. At the end of the day it's poor sleeping and you're still tired when you wake up.
While I was drunk sleeping, I pissed on myself.

Did you have a good nights sleep? No, I drunk slept.
