Mine stick out too but a huge part of it for me is that I don't want my feet covered! Unless it's very cold then I like them out. The rest of me can be covered (though half often isn't) but I hate hot feet.

Socks in the bed give me NIGHTMARES (as in fever-type too hot dreams), but icicle feet are perhaps worse :(

haha my ex wanted a nice grownup bed but the only ones she liked had footboards. so at least we avoided that boondoggle

mookieproof, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 00:49 (thirteen years ago)

stick a foot out the side dammit

My dreams of 50-people-in-a-bed promo shots for ILX the sitcom grow more faint...

Usually prefer a tucked-in sheet and some sort of cover or duvet; that said, there's something alluring about spooning or otherwise being entwined with no covers at all so you can see each other.

whoa

mookieproof, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 19:28 (thirteen years ago)

genius!

bah - that's dumb

potential advertising slogan: 'get blown in bed'

Jeff Goldblum is watching you, pope! (snoball), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 19:54 (thirteen years ago)

that would piss me off.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:07 (thirteen years ago)

listen nobody say anything else about their fucking sheets because I swear to God if I have to hear Grady complain to me about derailing this thread once more off board I'm going to start stabbing myself with a pencil or something

(✿◠‿◠) (ENBB), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:13 (thirteen years ago)

what if we knew who he was complaining to and are perpetuating this for just that reason? :)

mh, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:13 (thirteen years ago)

Then you're all just assholes.

Anyway, the kibosh, I am putting it on that topic for my own sanity and personal safety. I thank you for your cooperation.

(✿◠‿◠) (ENBB), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:14 (thirteen years ago)

but! the sheets! we have to discuss...the tucking, and the things of that nature!

;_;

lets talk about spicy food now- who likes it? i cant really take anything spicier than tabasco, myself.

xxp Or you could tell him to stop whining to you. Just saying.

how did I get here? why am I in the whiskey aisle? this is all so (Laurel), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:21 (thirteen years ago)

I think the thing I find most amusing about complaining about this thread being derailed is that, unless you are wanting to use it for its original purpose, essentially what you're saying is "SHUT UP AND BE MORE MISERABLE, ILXORS".

emil.y, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:24 (thirteen years ago)

Oh, he's just doing it on purpose because I'm easy to rile up and he knows it. I'm not actually mad. I told him to can it though, don't worry.

(✿◠‿◠) (ENBB), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:26 (thirteen years ago)

i am resisting posting any of insights i gained when i went to bed last night

rayuela, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:28 (thirteen years ago)

hot sauce pretty good way to get over a breakup really, replaces emotional pain with physical stimulation. don't put it near the genitals, though

mh, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:28 (thirteen years ago)

i dreamt that you and i still lived together and you had invited your mom and grandparents to stay with us without telling me

you were passive aggressive as usual

so glad you are more-or-less out of my life!

sarahell, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:29 (thirteen years ago)

We were supposed to be back together
and going to Barcelona next month to celebrate
I sent you a link to a nice little rental
You didn't answer
That was Saturday
you git

I pity the fool who has to flop around like a fish on land ALL NIGHT.

this is a very apt description of me! anyone know how I can train myself out of it? srs.

this is on-topic because it may lead to my next breakup, or something

also, Zora :(

put a fillyjonk on it (a passing spacecadet), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 20:57 (thirteen years ago)

yeah Z that rlly sucks

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:00 (thirteen years ago)

Is this Goblin Boy? Dude is seriously just not worth your time any more. This is a recurrent theme with him, the whole "can't make time for simplest of relationship things" thing. Curb, kick. Douche.

White Chocolate Cheesecake, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:04 (thirteen years ago)

x2 on last few posts. Also yes, as much as I like beds and bedding, let's not drift off-topic. This may well be the most important thread on all of ILX....

Lee626, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:27 (thirteen years ago)

so to sum up

the best way to get over a breakup is to spend an inordinate amount of time talking about personal peccadilloes and annoyances online, preferably ilx

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:29 (thirteen years ago)

can't think of a better way atm

Lee626, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:30 (thirteen years ago)

not to be mean, VG, but you on this thread is like when Helena Bonham Carter's character in Fight Club insists on going to the testicular cancer support group.

sarahell, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:33 (thirteen years ago)

awesome thanks

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:35 (thirteen years ago)

jesus christ

Ну, там твое место, там сабе будь! (darraghmac), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:36 (thirteen years ago)

don't say 'not to be mean', just say what you want to say because it inevitably feels mean and now I'm embarrassed thanks

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:36 (thirteen years ago)

Yeah WCC this is GB. Luckily I have too much other crap going on to waste time angsting about the enormous pile of fail that is our relationship, I actually only just realised how much time has passed since I sent the link. So... over in my heart, at last? Perhaps.

I am a non-tucker, feet-out, flip like a fish type person. I'm probably hell to share with, but I love spooning, so I will happily inflict my hot flipping self on bed-partners.

Also unknown as Zora (Surfing At Work), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:15 (thirteen years ago)

lots of people post in this thread who aren't in the midst of a break-up

just1n3, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:25 (thirteen years ago)

no need to single out vg and be an asshole about it

just1n3, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:26 (thirteen years ago)

sorry - she/you just kept posting about sleeping habits after everyone else stopped, it felt kinda compulsive - i dunno.

sarahell, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:28 (thirteen years ago)

i sleep with lots of blankets when it's cold, not so many when it's hot

Misc. Carnivora (Matt P), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:30 (thirteen years ago)

i don't have a breakup to get over

Misc. Carnivora (Matt P), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:32 (thirteen years ago)

Matt P - you are one of my favorite posters

sarahell, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:33 (thirteen years ago)

i can still get 'boys are jerks' drinks some time fyi

Misc. Carnivora (Matt P), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:34 (thirteen years ago)

I think the non-broken hearted can be here to support the breaker-uppers, it seems fine to me, not that I even know which camp I fall into, mind.

Also unknown as Zora (Surfing At Work), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:35 (thirteen years ago)

you are one of mine too! we should get boys are jerks drinks some time xp

Misc. Carnivora (Matt P), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:35 (thirteen years ago)

I think the non-broken hearted can be here to support the breaker-uppers, it seems fine to me, not that I even know which camp I fall into, mind.

well of course, it's just the long chit-chatty mundane personal habits derail that bugged me

sarahell, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:41 (thirteen years ago)

dead horse whatever but: I was doing it as a joke bcs gr8080 was annoyed.
my sense of "humor" is deeply rooted in "5 year old banging on pots" territory so I get how it might not seem funny to anyone but me. I didn't think I was alone in doing it, but whatever.

I don't have a breakup compulsion, or a sheet compulsion. I really hate that movie though, fyi :)

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:46 (thirteen years ago)

I didn't think I was alone in doing it, but whatever.

no - indeed not - and for that you have my deepest apologies

sarahell, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:48 (thirteen years ago)

no worries!

"and...scene"
