Ways you've been unpleasantly awakened.

From the (as yet unresolved) “Worst way to wake up” contest:

@Danalan

I woke up while being handcuffed once.

Full illustrated story here.

Basically, some friends broke into my house and handcuffed me as a practical joke. Then they left to go to breakfast. I escaped before they returned, so hilarity didn’t ensue as they expected. I destroyed their handcuffs, and managed to make it to class on time anyway.
