    I tried one in the store with my wife and we also determined it was going to be terrible for sex. The Beautyrest Silver BRS900 in extra firm we got has been the absolute best bed for sex I've ever been on.

    Can I ask why that mattress was especially good for sex? Like, more than a typical mattress? Asking cause I like sex and have FOMO.

      Not just monero but crypto. Any darkweb market place, most privacy services, a ton of small online sellers accept it as payment for goods. You can buy cards, houses coffees with crypto now. Its not wide spread enough to not have a bank account but you can make a decent amount of payments with it these days especially online.

        I really like it in extra firm as it provides a lot of support for any position you want. It doesn't bounce too much like a plusher mattress would which can get tiring if you're going at it for a while. It is like being on a wrestling mat in a way but it's much more comfortable. I was skeptical at first and thought I wouldn't like it. My wife was pregnant when we got it and was very uncomfortable sleeping at night so I let her drive the mattress selection. It took me a few nights to get used to it and I'm absolutely sold on it now. Any other mattress we've been on since just leaves a lot to be desired when having sex and we wish we were on our mattress at home.

          Ok thanks for that! I think I may try out a firmer mattress sometime.

              Yeah but it's fractured

              (I should clarify, not only does fracturing the peanut meal force the oil out, it kind of "cooks" the proteins and transforms them, which is why it continues to separate no matter how much you stir. And then it just doesn't taste as good. I know I sound like a peanut evangelist, but it's a different experience when you try fresh crushed)

              crush roasted peanuts

              fracturing "cooks" the proteins

              Sounds like a lot of effort for something that might not make any difference? Only way to find out is to try I guess, but I'm too lazy 🙂 enjoy your superior peanut butter, I think I'm good with the industrial stuff from the supermarket 👍🏻

                At first it felt like I was sleeping on top of the bed rather than being "in bed" if that makes any sense. I'd also recommend king size if you have the room. Having the extra room for toys and other accessories on the bed has been great.

                  So it's kind of like a really comfortable plushy enclosed robe? I thought it might be like a Snuggy at first, but it looks like it's closed in the back unlike a Snuggy.

                  Had to look it up. It actually looks quite similar. The Oodie is enclosed in the back and a pouch in the front.

                    Fixed Gear bicycles. One gear, no fear. Also, no coward levers (which sane folk refer to as “brakes”).
