When I had bad sciatic pain this position was occasionally a fucking lifesaver
I never really thought this through all the way this until fairly recently, and it's not just this instance in particular, but Nancy comics are pretty good.
Bill Griffith, the creator of Zippy the Pinhead, put out a graphic novel biography of Ernie Bushmiller and it's really good.

A lot of Bushmiller strips are standard comic fare, but every so often he did something funny and weird, like break the fourth wall.
And then sometimes he would rise above it all to a level of comic genius.
Bill Griffith fucking rules. Zippy for president, and praise goddamn "Bob".
Ernie Bushmiller also rules, but Griffith is a fellow SubGenius and Zippy is right up my alley since reality is a sandwitch I did not order.
The original Ernie Bushmiller ones are good, and the modern day Olivia Jaimes ones are good, but the middle period of Guy Gilchrist is junk.
I love Nancy!
Malicious compliance
