Flailing Susan 

An advanced position in sexual intercourse involving one man and one woman. The woman, on top of the man, does the splits while hanging from something. The man lies on his back on a lazy-susan, inserts his erection into the woman, and starts to spin on the lazy-susan while remaining inside her.

STRETCH AND LUBRICATE PRIOR TO ATTEMPTING!
Caitlin: Wanna try the flailing susan tonight?!
Jason: Hell yeah, but let's use extra lube since I got really chaffed last time.

failing asleep 

This term describes the nightly experience of those unfortunate schmucks who just absolutely cannot fucking fall asleep, no matter how much thrashing around in bed they do or how much ruminating over past mistakes they indulge in. Instead of falling asleep, an insomniac is simply failing asleep.
