We all know the importance of a good night's sleep, but for one couple, it was the key to saving their marriage. This couple had a nightly war in bed, with the wife being a notorious blanket stealer and the husband a sleep thrasher. Their constant battles left them exhausted and crabby, leading to fights every morning. But then, a hilarious solution came in the form of an anime body pillow from the wife's teenage years, which they named DMZ-chan. The pillow became a beloved part of their nightly routine and solved their only real issue. However, things took a turn when the husband's mother discovered the pillow, leading to some awkwardness and a debate over whether it should stay or go. 🤔🛌

A Hilarious Solution or an Embarrassing Problem? 🤣

So, what's the verdict? Should the couple keep their beloved DMZ-chan, the anime body pillow that saved their marriage, or should they cave to the embarrassment and get rid of her? While the husband wants to replace her with a plain body pillow case, the wife feels they shouldn't have to compromise their inside jokes to please others. It's a tough call, but one thing's for sure: this pillow has certainly stirred up some drama! 😅 Let's see what the internet has to say about this hilarious predicament...

Couples should do whatever helps them sleep comfortably 😴. MIL should mind her own business.
