Is someone holding these poor souls hostage and forcing them to be together?

You can always tell when the writer of the latest episode of any show is eligible for retirement but choose not to take it.
What's with Papa Smurf in the background?
It looks like he was edited in to cover up whatever text is under him? The mystery deepens
Did a reverse image search and I guess that the original image is mirrored horizontally and papa Smurf covers a window for some reason
The original image:
I think your source has missed a step. I think it went:
- Original source
- Someone flips horizontally and adds their logo
- Someone adds smurf over the logo
That makes a lot more sense than just covering up the window lol
Reverse image search would be too much trouble on my phone where I don't have the browser extension at hand.
Thought I saw Saddam as the divider. Your memes are ruining my imagination, Lemmy.
I just imagined a couple having some snuggly time and a South Park like Saddam just poking his head out in between. Thanks.
I know this is a dumb meme about shitty relationships, but real life pro tip here:
Separate blankets.
Fuck yea. 20 years, seperate doonas the entire time. Real secret to wedded bliss right here
Is a doona a specific type of blanket or just a local term
EDIT: it's Australian for quilt. Now I know!
Separate blankets is the way to go. We both sleep so much better now.
I’ve seen these rolled out in hotels that need to turn a double room into two singles.
I was abroad for work, flopped onto the middle of my large hotel bed.
Turns out it was two singles pushed together and the bit where they met was a lot harder than you'd think.
I've learned to always flop across the bed from a similar experience
Gays same.
It's because divorce was illegal.
No-fault divorce is a big fucking deal for American culture, because it ended this enforced permanence for relationships that went sour. All of the "wife bad" boomer humor comes from the fact a marriage could not simply end.
What the fuck??
i know this is a joke, but for those who don't know, this is a courtship bed from i believe the Amish culture (either that or Mormon, I'm rusty lol) to preserve virginity before marriage.
You pull your sinful hand back over on your side of the wall right now, Jebidiah!!
Sad straight married noises
need one of these for hotels where a large party needs individual beds e.g. an overnight school field trip where all the students in the same grade need to share a room with minimal awkwardness.
you know this might help with my weird ability to rotate in my sleep. Husband hates that I'll just... twist sideways and kick him in my sleep instead of lay one direction lmao
This is great! But it doesn't match ours! Ours has machine guns and sharks with lasers ok their heads! Nobody is jumping that divider tonight or ever!....oh, who am I kidding 😅, I sleep in the living room 🛋️ couch.
Think about that before you marry. LOL. The sex is fantastic until it's not anymore.
Maybe my first hint that I'm not entirely cis should have been that I've been married more than 5 years, and in a relationship with my wife more than 10, and I still love her more each passing day.
Me and my partner have been together for 20 years. I finally came out as pan NB about 4 years ago.
That doesn’t work. The wife gets half the bed, and she’ll take that half wherever she’d like.
