5 Possibilities Explaining The Existence Of Mattress Firm

When was the last time you bought a new mattress? Think about it for a second. You probably don't even remember. You may have no memories of ever even buying one. After all, you have probably been sleeping on your current mattress for most of your life. I mean, mattresses should last a long time. It's not like you need to get a new one very often. However, if I were to ask you to name the first mattress store that you could think of, you would almost without a doubt, with very little hesitation, say "Mattress Firm."

Why? Because Mattress Firm stores are everywhere. EVERYWHERE. There seems to be one on practically every corner and in every shopping center if not more than one. I've seen two of them right across the street from each other, and even three within way too small of a radius. People just don't need to buy mattresses very often. We don't need anywhere near the amount of Mattress Firms that exist. How can it possibly be profitable for them to operate that many stores? It doesn't make sense. They cannot be selling enough mattresses to justify the number of stores they have. There has to be something else going on with this overly saturated chain of mattress stores. I don't know what it is, but here are five possibilities.

1. Money Laundering Scheme

Mattress Firm has a lot of stores, all over the place, which makes it seem like a definite possibility that the whole operation is a giant money laundering scheme. Who are they laundering money for? It's difficult to say, but the whole thing seems like it could definitely be a giant front for some massive illegal operation. I mean, who would question a mattress store? Those responsible for helping ensure that millions of people get a good night's sleep every night couldn't possibly have a sinister side to them... or could they??

2. Magical Illusion

Another possibility is that Mattress Firm simply does not actually exist. Maybe it's nothing but an elaborate illusion created by forces beyond our control, or by some highly skilled illusionist. That seems more plausible to me then believing that there are actually that many mattress stores, so perhaps magic is involved in some way.

3. Actual Mattress Store

This is obviously the most unlikely of all the scenarios, but I've decided to still acknowledge it as a theoretical possibility. Maybe Mattress Firm really is just a chain of mattress stores, with nothing more going on whatsoever. Maybe every single one really is just a mattress store and nothing more. Maybe the company's main objective really is to just sell mattresses. It seems highly unlikely, but I suppose it's possible.

4. Alien Fortress

Somewhere out there in the vast expanse of the universe, maybe extraterrestrial beings exist, occupying their planet while completely unaware of Planet Earth. Or, maybe aliens have already arrived on our planet, through the disguise of Mattress Firm. Perhaps the mattress chain is actually a group of alien fortresses, allowing these beings of another world to collect intelligence on the human race. I'm just saying, next time you go to Mattress Firm, keep an eye on whatever salesman you talk to because there is a slight chance that they are actually an alien life form plotting the demise of humanity.

5. Government Laboratory

There must be something suspicious occurring inside the walls of Mattress Firm, and maybe the government is actually responsible. Maybe the stores are actually secret government laboratories containing our nation's deepest, darkest, most securely held secrets. Perhaps the stores are actually sites where questionable government experiments and surveillance projects take place. You just never know.

Perhaps one of these possibilities is the truth behind Mattress Firm, or perhaps there is another, even more complicated, and possibly more sinister, explanation. What is the real explanation for the existence of this mattress store? The world may never know. But, there is simply no way that they are only selling mattresses.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
