Cushions...
You meet, you talk, you drink, you make the beast with two backs, you agree to meet again, you repeat, you move in together, and suddenly, THERE'S FUCKING CUSHIONS EVERYWHERE. You didn't buy them, you don't remember her buying them, SO WHERE THE FUCK HAVE ALL THE CUSHIONS COME FROM?

And that, I believe is the main difference between the sexes. Men will possess two cushions (that probably came free with the 3-piece), and women will magically attract them.

They breed
I once pointed to a cushion in a shop and said ooh thats nice, its almost the same colour as my sofa bed throw.
Friend bought the cushion for me.
Ok, nice.
But now I have 9 that have to be removed before i can get into bed, and its only one of them I'm responsible for acquiring myself.
And I made that, didnt buy it.
You could be right, I seem to have magically attracted mine

They're everywhere!!!
I opened a cupboard last week and there were at least seven cushions in there. Stuffed down the side of the dresser are four more. Don't even start me on the "european pillows" that apparently are vital to any bed, despite the fact they are uncomfortable to lie against and are only EVER put on during the day when nobody is anywhere near the bed.
Sadly I have no argument for this at all because any time I bring it up the conversation goes thusly:

Damn! There are cushions EVERYWHERE!!!
Yes, they're wedged up against all the boxes of comics.

The missus
Arranges 7 or 8 cushions of varying sizes on the bed when she gets out of it every morning and then has to move them every evening so we can get in, so they spend the night on the floor. Our dressing-up trunk is also topped with an arrangement of four or five cushions that I have to move every time I need some zombie make-up or one of my Star Trek uniforms, which I apparently "don't put back right".

My solution to this would be: no cushions.

We have a scatterback sofa
so they're pretty vital unless I want to sit on a wooden frame stretched over with leather.
