The Blanket Buckle
Throughout the flight, the cabin crew walks around the aisles and checks that everyone has their seatbelts on. If you're sleeping with your blanket over the seatbelt, one of the flight attendants will wake you up to make sure you are, indeed, buckled in, which can really mess up your iffy-already sleep. No fun.

What you can do to avoid that is simple — just cover yourself up with your blanket first, and only then buckle yourself up OVER it. Problem solved.
