Unfortunately, people aren't always able to be still when they sleep. They may likely end up trapped in a tangle of sheets and blankets by the time they wake up. This is just what happens when someone is sleeping alone. If someone else is sleeping in the bed, they will usually have to put up with a sleeping partner who constantly pulls the sheet over him/herself. This may be done unconsciously, or the other sleeper is actively seeking warmth. This would, of course, happen at the expense of the other person in the bed, who will start feeling cold and will probably grab the sheets back. Then, the first sheet-hogger gets cold again, and they tug the sheets back towards themselves, and...you get the picture. Sometimes accompanies There Is Only One Bed, but is not necessarily its subtrope. See also Sleep Squashing. |

Tom and Jerry: In "Million Dollar Cat", not only does Jerry pull on Tom's sheets, but he also shoves Tom out of bed. In "Puppy Tale", the puppy that Jerry brings home goes to sleep in Tom's bed. It then proceeds to take his blanket. A second later, Tom wakes up sneezing due to being cold. |

Calvin and Hobbes: In one Sunday strip, Hobbes pulls the covers from Calvin while they're sleeping, and after a tug-of-war, Calvin gives up and goes to sleep with his parents, then does the same thing to his dad. In one strip, Calvin reaches to pull back the covers and hears Hobbes say, "I'm very fond of Calvin. Pass the gravy, please." Calvin wisely accepts his fate and sleeps cold. |

Taken to extremes on Everybody Loves Raymond. After a tiff in bed, Debra took all the covers and went downstairs to sleep on the couch. For good measure, she turned down the thermostat. | |

Spongebob Squarepants: An interesting variation in "Home Sweet Pineapple" - Patrick invites the newly homeless SpongeBob to be his "rockmate," so they sleep on opposite sides of Patrick's rock, with the rock being the blanket in this scenario. Other episodes of Patrick's house have shown there is a living area underneath the rock that includes a television set and purple armchair. | |
