 I had this idea in my had for quite a time now and I decided to try it for this challenge.

Editing: I used the draganizer action again. The hair dryer and the coffee pot were attached to a cable by a piece of string which I cloned out. At some point I thought about plugging in the dryer but I decided not to. I hope you can see that the cable is around my neck as I struggle not to get suffocated.

I think an open mouth would do better on conveying the suffocation. The eyes are just perfect.
