Many a pilot puts a clip in the side of the mask to keep it inflated and then have hanging below their chin. Most masks are NOT made for comfort- they are made to go on quickly and snugly. While this isn't all the way legal, at least it is a lot more comfortable. They do go on a lot faster than I thought they would the one time I had a door seal blow at FL400 on a 91 ferry leg.
