Sagging Mattress Cartoon

Bearman Cartoons Sagging Mattress CartoonIt is a well known fact that women tend to take over the bed at night.  It is true in my house as well.   I call my wife a “starfish” as she makes sure to take up as much room with her small frame as she possibly can in the bed.  Add a couple cats in the mix and poor Bearman is smashed up against the edge of his side of the bed.

Recently my wife has been saying we need a new mattress because no matter how many times we turn the mattress my side of the bed is always sagging.  REALLY???!!!!

    My wife gets peeved because my side sags so much that she can’t stop rolling onto me throughout the night. She has to hang onto her side like it was a cliff edge. 😀

      Maybe you need an air mattress? haha

        I bounced her ass off an air mattress once. I laughed, but she didn’t.

          Hahaha! One time, while sleeping on an air mattress while visiting my sister, my wife got up suddenly and I rolled and fell the opposite side. Not a good way to wake up, I promise.

          I think this could be seen as something naughty over
          Valentine’s weekend, all that bouncing around I mean 🙂

          Just kidding…

    Sorry, I can’t go with you on this one. I have to stay as close to the edge as possible and often I have one leg out with my foot on the floor. Lately He-Who has taken to flinging his arms around in bed and I have gotten nailed several times. The other night he smacked me good and I woke up and went downstairs to sleep. The next morning I said I could figure out why I woke up. He just said, “Oh, I belted you again.” There are no sagging sides but there is a lot of dodging and weaving on my part.

      My friend’s wife had restless leg syndrome and she was constantly kicking him in the middle of the night. I think she was just kicking him for the hell of it.

        I tried to use that one. Unfortunately my Doc wouldn’t back me up.

          Try another doctor! 🙂

    I take the covers. I don’t take over the bed though, but you better have a death grip on those covers or I’ll have most of them.

    Have a fabulous day. 🙂

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      I don’t like any covers except on my feet!!! Need my feet covered!

      1. Joseph Avatar

        Just wear socks! You should at least wear something, Bearman!

    I really like the cat compounding the situation.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      Sadly in our house there are 3 of them but I didn’t want to make us seem that weird.

      1. frigginloon Avatar

        Blahahahaha you mean weirder

      2. Binky Avatar

        Oh, so that’s what that was.

    Don’t forget about that special ability to levitate six inches off the mattress, roll 360 degrees in mid air, thus cocooning themselves in the blanket. #blankethogs

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      I don’t mind that cuz I don’t like a blanket except for my feet. My wife keeps it so damn hot in our house it is like a greenhouse.

    I’m not sure one gender has the problem more than the other. The size of the bed makes a big difference. Also, the only animals in bed should be the people when they are in the mood to act like an animal.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      We have a king size bed and it seems I am always teetering on the edge of despair (or the mattress) And the animals know when they are not wanted

  9. Christina Avatar

    Our bed looks like that! Except our cat takes up twice as much space.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      Sure sure…blame it on the cat.

      I know one should never judge a book by its cover, but your avatar brought me in to your site. It is so beautiful…

        Nef Christina does some amazing work

      There are good things about being married!

        Wise man, Nate. Stay free! :OP

      The sleep pattern or the band?

  12. Tony McGurk Avatar

    We are the opposite. I get pushed back to my side a lot

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      That’s cuz you snore

            Don’t think I don’t know it.

    Ha, ha! I can relate.
    Especially last night… :/

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      We should form the brotherhood of the saggy mattress.

  15. Gruhn Avatar

    As long as we’re Talking about sagging………

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      You have something to ADD to the conversation?

      1. Gruhn Avatar

        You’re right, I apologize for the poor attempt at humor. . I would recommend the sleep number bed wholeheartedly. You each get to pick your firmness of the bed and there is no sagging. I don’t sell them I just have one. There is also something to be said for the separate beds on the Dick Van Dyke show. People think that that means there is a problem in the marriage but separate beds could actually save some!

        1. Joseph Avatar

          Then there’s the trouble of pushing the beds together for some monkey-bizness :OP

        2. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

          haha. I was trying to make my own return attempt at humor Gruhn and it didn’t work.

          Looked at those beds but damn they are expensive. But if they last 2x as long might be worth it.

  16. Andro Avatar

    Yes sagging mattress syndrome is a common dilemma, in fact it dates back to Neanderthal times when going out, or clubbing as it is better known in the 21st century was also common, but in those days men were too busy dragging females around the bedroom by the hair to worry about anything sagging. So what does this have to do with the sagging mattress posting? Well not a lot but at least you enjoyed reading about it 🙂 lmao

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      haha. You had me until the end, riveted that there was a point to this lesson. Alas…

      1. Andro Avatar

        i often write a lot of nonsense, hust calling into my Space proves that 🙂 lol Have a great day today Bearman and thank you for calling into my world on the edge, it’s funny but I was transported to your older Space from the comment you left me, so a trip through time, but I still enjoyed looking through your old Space 🙂 The last time that you posted there was back in 2010 so how about that for time travelling 🙂 Have fun today and keep adding your uniqueness, your website rocks 🙂

        1. Andro Avatar

          And if you can believe the crap typing skills, it makes one wonder how
          I even have a blog 🙁 lower case ‘I’ and hust for just, whatever next? 🙂 lol

          1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

            Argh I can’t believe it went to my old account. Wonder what is up with that.

    This is why many years gone by, married couples slept in separate beds.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      Only if you are a 50’s sitcom

      1. Joseph Avatar

        I never understood that as a kid.

        Also, Ernie and Bert sleep in separate beds.

        1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

          Because in the 50’s they couldn’t show them in a fornicating position.

          1. Binky Avatar

            Ernie and Bert?!

          2. Joseph Avatar

            I know that now, Bearman, My first girlfriend showed me…

          3. Joseph Avatar

            Yes, Binky. Ernie and Bert are a couple. Not that there’s anything wrong with that! :OP

    I’ve been single for 10+ years but until recently have kept the joys of my Cal King bed. A divet? You bet. Gotta say there’s nothing more depressing than a sagging mattress on one side of the bed…becasue you’re the only one ever in it!
    Maybe you should try doing it Amish Style Bearman: a finely crafted bed board to keep your side pristine. Think of the aerobic exercise you’ll get when you want to climb over and snuggle up 🙂

    Laughed at your ‘starfish’ description. Perfect.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      You could always flip the mattress around if you don’t want to sleep on the other side of the bed.

    Manifest destiny, bedroom style.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      I always have to look up your references Tyler haha j/k

  20. Joseph Avatar

    So true! My wife also hogs the covers so now we each have our own.

    We can’t flip our mattress because it has a sewn in “pillow top” feature. We can only turn it.

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      That’s what we do…turn turn and turn.

  21. JerryBenedict Avatar

    We have a massive California king mattress.. . or as we call it, “sea of bed”!

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      Why are those shorter is all I want to know.

  22. Chris Simonite Avatar

    This comic is almost TOO true, if that’s possible!!
