Pillow Fight Day – Violence With A Softer Side

It's a tradition at every sleepover, slumber party, corporate stockholder meeting, and gathering of OPEC ministers. It's the merciless beating of others with soft fluffy objects called pillows. It's the pillow fight. It is a time honored tradition that is passed down from big brother to little brother with a sharp blow to the side of the head. It's the laying in wait behind the door for the victim to come stroll in the room and the unleashing hell and feathers all over him. It's sorority girls and short t-shirts and baby doll tops only acting that way in the vivid imagination of male gender.

Pillow fights are actually good for relationships. Anything that helps people release frustration is a good thing. Especially if it's a fun way to release frustration. The good thing about pillow fighting is usually nobody gets hurt. Except for the kid with glasses. As the kid with glasses I found out quickly how deep a gash frames can make in the face. I'm always the kid that screwed up the fun right?

So tonight as you're settling down to rest and as your significant other saunters into the bedroom why don't you pull that pillow from beneath your head and see if you can't knock them senseless. It's a proven fact that unconscious people sleep better than those with insomnia.  However, should your first volley not be successful in taking your opponent down be ready for hell to be unleashed upon you when you least expect it. I hear dying in your sleep is a peaceful way to go.
