xkcd comic where a bald stickman (Person1, pressumably male) is walking up to the open door leading to a medium length haired stickman’s (Person2, pressumably female) apartment
(First panel)
Person1: “Hey, I was wondering if you had plans for-- Holy crap, what happened to your apartment?”
Person2: “I filled it with playpen balls!”
Person1: “I… What? Why?”
(Second panel, from the point of view of Person1)
Person2: “Because we’re grown-ups now, and it’s our turn to decide what that means.”
In the third panel Person2 is out of frame and Person1 is seen staring at the ball-apartment, then in the fouth panel he’s out of frame too, the balls are spilling out of the door and a pink heart is flying out of the room

I imagine it would be quite fun for a while, but that the novelty would wear thin about the time you woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom for the first time.
Filling a basement den with them, though… lounging in a sea of balls while watching TV or something… I am not seeing the downside.

Imagine the flora and fauna that would slowly grow in there

Just make it a sauna or something so you can cook them dead every now and again

In my house it would be full of silverfish in no time. Bleh.
Hell yeah! Also kissing and snuggling in that sea of balls sounds so fun :3

They can also provide extra support for holding various positions.

Whatever they did, it launched little floaty hearts across the room and out the door.

Why does it matter if one or the other is male or female?
it doesnt? :p It’s just what was likely implied and I translated that to text
