Hello, everyone! Happy Friday! How has your week gone?
Anywho, as you probably recall, I’m participating in a Blogher Month-long challenge. And apparently Fluffy wasn’t being overly honest yesterday when she claimed I was “sleep-typing”. I thought that didn’t make sense!
I didn’t expect you to actually believe it.
Hmpf. Anyways, it’s the Third of May. And I’m participating in the challenge. So that means that it’s time for the prompt:
Which would you rather have: a super-soft pillow or a warm, fuzzy blanket?
Oh. That’s really easy. The Blanket, without even a shadow of doubt.
Uh, that was emphatic. Why? I’d probably have gone for the pillow. They’re so squishable!
Because, Webmaster dear, blankets essentially are pillows. They’re just waiting to happen.
…What? That made, like, no sense.
Oh. Sorry. You can use a blanket in a lot more ways than a pillow. Does that make more sense?
I suppose, but I’m still not buying it.
No, seriously. Blankets are basically just like pillows, only better.
What? You don’t have any proof of that.
Sure I do. Here are:
Five ways blankets are better than pillows.
1) Soft covering for going to sleep. Pillows can’t do that.
Sure they can! Haven’t you seen full-sized body pillows? Those things are amazing!
They still don’t cover you as well as blankets. And they’re usually not as fuzzy.
Thankyou. Moving on…
2) Props for children of actors. There’s nothing like a fluffy blanket to imitate a cloak of invisibility.
And it keeps them out of trouble. After all, you can’t do anything naughty or your cloak of invisibility gets taken away.
That, Fluffy, sounds like the voice of experience talking…
My blanket only got taken away once. But anyways, pillows can’t be cloaks of invisibility. I’ve tried.
3) Protection from the elements. It’s much more flexible than a pillow, and it makes a lot more sense to place a protection spell on something that is more flexible.
Wait a second. What elements are you referring to?
Fire, water, and earth, primarily. For some reason, because blankets like to flap in the wind they aren’t as effective against the air. It can still be done, but it also doesn’t look as impressive. Why do you ask?
…You come from such a different world from mine. We think of the elements very differently. And there isn’t magic to worry about.
Oh. That must be sorrowful for you.
But I digress.
4) Using as a rope. All you need to do is twist it up, and tie it. Voila, instant rope.
5) As a pillow.
Ok, now that is definitely something that a pillow can do better.
No. A pillow comes predefined as to how fluffy it is. And it’s big and bulky. A blanket can be turned into a pillow, just by filling it with other fuzzy blankets and rolling them up together.
And that, dear Webmaster, is why blankets are superior to pillows. Anything you can do with a pillow, you can do with a blanket. Because blankets are just larger, easier to manage, unformed-pillows.
…Maybe. I still think I’d take a super soft pillow. Depending on the circumstance.
And I think you’re just arguing for the sake of arguing.
Anyways, have a great weekend, everyone! I hope to see you tomorrow.
