That first one looks like a pain in the ass to clean, but also the perfect spot to sleep

Big group nap. It's a social activity.

Edit: This comment seems to have gotten out of my control, but thanks. :')

Unironically, me and the squad used to get together for hangouts during college and start with nap time. It was usually an impromptu thing where you’d show up and a few people had fallen asleep, so you were like “okay cool,” find a comfy spot, and take a nap yourself. 10/10 recommend.
