<:@thismyusername You want to know more about the mattress? Well I consider it money well spent. I takes a bit of getting used to, but my weird hip pain I have had for a few years has all but disappeared after a few weeks of sleeping on it.
@pburkej I hadn’t ever heard of it until your post… am shopping for an additional mattress currently thanks for the info! I tried one off those gel grid things for office chairs… very interested in a bed sized one now
@RiotDemon It is a very comfortable mattress. Not sure it is for everybody, as there is a slightly bumpy feel due to the grid, but I am really liking it
@thismyusername Honestly I liked their video with goldilocks, and I liked the policy they have that if you don’t like it they donate it to charity with a full refund. It is unlike any other mattress I have slept on. The mattress is a little bit bumpy on the surface but you hardly notice it. It is an odd hybrid of a super soft top and firm underneath, so I am not sure it is for everybody. My last mattress had divot where I slept, because I am a big guy. But this feels awesome in comparison, and seems to have helped out with my hip and back issues.
This animatronic inflatable dragon that I apparently didn’t photograph well, so here’s the link to the Lowe’s website. Their photos aren’t great either, ugh. There’s a purple swirly light inside of its stomach and its wings move.
Ah, found it. I just knew there was a good place to leave this (it’s a nice, thoughtful article on how cooperation between the red team and the blue team, aka the offense and defense, do better with a bit of cooperation):
Hey @Barney, just a heads up… there is a store online that only sells purple things… just wanted you to know. I can’t recall the name but it’s a purple store basically. I was reading another thread and it reminded me of this!
@PlacidPenguin Smart ass, I know about online shopping, but I want a store here. I want to be able to go into a purple store anytime I want. I want to see purple, breathe purple, be purple.
The bed’s fantastic. No motion transfer, so I sleep like a rock while my husband does his ridiculous dolphin-flip sleep calisthenics. And unlike Tempur Pedic or the “cooling gel foam” topper we got from Costco, it doesn’t accumulate heat.
The pillow … ugh, it’s complicated. It’s a complete disaster of a $100 pillow and I wouldn’t recommend it, and yet I find mine indispensable for non-pillow reasons.
It’s softer than the mattress and feels amaaaazing to touch, but in practice it crushes my ear when side sleeping. If I try to sleep on my back, it pushes my chin down and doesn’t support my neck. So it promotes both snoring and neck pain.
The thing is that, like the mattress, it’s fantastic at heat management. I have trouble getting to sleep when my feet are hot, which is often. So I keep my purple pillow at the foot of the bed, where it can steal warmth from my feet. I think my husband uses his for heat management somehow too.
My current reason: purple plates and mugs at Ikea. $0.49/each (discontinued).
@narfcake I NEED THESE. Which IKEA!?
@djanlp This was at the Covina one.
I think this thread is pretty.
I love purple.
From my yard:
@rockblossom Aww… So beautiful.
I think these guys have a few things…
https://www.thepurplestore.com/
@rand3y Yep.
@KDemo But… But… I don’t see my picture.
@Barney - Sorry that huge dopey dinosaur is too big and took up most of the picture. You were just behind him, right?
@KDemo Haha! Yep.
@KDemo Thanos!
/giphy purple is fantastic
@heartny no eggplant?
@thismyusername It’s in the top 20 list.
@thismyusername Those look delicious!
@ELUNO Purple ladybug soup?
@rockblossom
@ELUNO Aren’t Purple People Eaters supposed to have just one eye and one horn?
@rockblossom He does. It’s just that the horn looks pretty much like a left eye
Dinner tonight was a purple carrot stew cooked up in my purple Le Creuset and eaten off of a purple Fire & Light plate. Purple dinner is best dinner!

purple tulips are my favorite flower…
purple is also my birthstone…
purple nights are the best…
yeah, i like purple…
Don’t worry, she doesn’t come alive at nights…
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the purplest of them all?
Purple is the luckiest color, right?

After almost 10 years, I finally got something worthwhile in my Woot BOC. The rest of the stuff in the box was the usual crap.
@heartny I wanted one of these, but I didn’t get it.
@heartny Mine was orange, but I got good crap. Maybe they went by color.

Hey @Barney just wanted to mention that there is a website that only sells purple stuff!!! Just google the purple store!!!
@thismyusername Lol. Wow, I didn’t KNOW that. Thanks for cluing me in.

I am laying on my fairly new and totally awesome Purple mattress. Does that count?
@pburkej
Affirmative
/giphy purple comfort
@pburkej please report back, interested!!!
@pburkej hmm, seems promising. The top grid layer appears to be the same thing inside my backpack straps, and that’s super comfortable.
@RiotDemon But does the mattress come with a whistle?
@ELUNO Oh! Oh! Oh! I want one of those!
@ELUNO my backpack didn’t come with a whistle
@RiotDemon Aww…
@Barney Did you get one then when Meh offered it last week?!
@RiotDemon You can buy your own and sew it on!
/giphy whistle
@ELUNO Meh sold a mattress with a whistle? Gee, I must have fallen asleep and didn’t see it.
@Barney You could have purchased the backpack and slept with it on your new purple mattress.
<:@thismyusername You want to know more about the mattress? Well I consider it money well spent. I takes a bit of getting used to, but my weird hip pain I have had for a few years has all but disappeared after a few weeks of sleeping on it.

@ELUNO
Henceforth I will insist that any mattress I purchase comes with a whistle.
/giphy you know how to whistle don’t you

@pburkej is this a mattress meh sold?
@Kidsandliz No. But it is purple. I would have bought one from meh if I saw it.
@thismyusername Haven’t you seen the infomercial?

@compunaut I don’t really do advertisements… so I hadn’t seen it until this thread when I started looking at the “purple” mattress.
@thismyusername I had to see what the St Pauli Girl was doing on the bed

@ELUNO Aw, I love purple spiders.
hey @Barney did you know there is a website that only sells purple stuff?
Just makin’ sure you remember.
@thismyusername If I ignore you, will you go away?
@Barney I guess, but then it will just @mfladd talking to himself via his alter egos all the time, is that what you really want?
@thismyusername @Barney
Which alter egos does @mfladd have?
@thismyusername Aw, I’d miss you if you went away.
@PlacidPenguin I really don’t think that @mfladd is hanging around here right now.

Purple thread for the purple thread
@Kidsandliz
Hope you gave yourself an A++.
a purple tree just for you @Barney
@carl669 Aw, thanks. Can you flock it with snow before you deliver it to my house?
@Barney i think the arboretum folks might get pissy if i try to take it. but, i’d be happy to get a picture of it once nature flocks it for me.
@carl669 Reminds me of Jacksonville’s Treaty Oak. That sucker is humongous!

@narfcake Purple all the way!
@Barney is this your house:
http://imjussayin.co/ordinary-looking-house-outside-entirely-purple-inside/
@heartny yikes. As much as I love purple, that house is hideous. What is the deal with the carpet in the bathroom??
@heartny The ceilings are purple. THE CEILINGS! Plus there is a bed in the dining room. Crazy.
@sammydog01 I thought that was a sectional sofa.
@heartny Umm no. Could not handle purple everything.
@RiotDemon It has a headboard, boxspring, and mattress.
@sammydog01
Doesn’t everybody have a(n) extra bed near their table?
@sammydog01 I didn’t look close enough the first time. I saw it after you pointed it out. I was too distracted by the purple.
@heartny
Love purple, but maybe not shag carpet.
@sammydog01 maybe a murphy bed?
@heartny Hmm, I think it shows great potential.
Thought of you @Barney.
I saw a bright purple car, which on its own would have been enough.
However, an older woman got out of the car, with you guessed it, purple hair.
I don’t think she was wearing purple though.
@PlacidPenguin That woman has impeccable taste. I can forgive her for not wearing purple.
Hey @Barney, just a heads up… there is a store online that only sells purple things… just wanted you to know. I can’t recall the name but it’s a purple store basically. I was reading another thread and it reminded me of this!
@thismyusername @Barney
Shame there’s no store which only sells purple items.
@thismyusername @PlacidPenguin You guys are i-n-c-o-r-r-i-g-i-b-l-e. Actually, I think the world needs more purple stores.
@Barney @thismyusername
Yay compliments!
@Barney Stay Purple!
@daveinwarsh I’ll never see one of these in the land of Oz. -sigh-
@Barney
It’s called online shopping.
Alternatively, you may want to see if anyone would sponsor a flight to Seattle for you.
@PlacidPenguin Smart ass, I know about online shopping, but I want a store here. I want to be able to go into a purple store anytime I want. I want to see purple, breathe purple, be purple.
@Barney Maybe you should become a “Purpleologist”?
I think it’s a four-year degree in Purpleness.
@daveinwarsh If it involves ice cream, I’m hoping it takes me at least 6 years to graduate.

Has anyone tried the Purple pillow?
@JT954 Yes, I got a couple with my Purple bed.
