Poof point

Why does "poof point" (its a movie) redirrect to pillow? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.15.131.253 (talk) 07:12, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I've changed that redirect to go to The Poof Point instead. Lineslarge (talk) 16:42, 30 June 2012 (UTC)

Clean up

I just wanted to say that i'm going to start cleaning up this page, it's not nearly done, I'm also going to see if I can get some references for it.Latulla 01:21, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Trivia?

I disagree that the "other uses" section is really a trivia section. Some of the uses are marginal and probably not worth having in the article, but the rest are entirely relevant as general points (for instance the use of pillows as murder weapons, especially in movies. If it listed every movie that used it this way, then that's trivia). Ciotog 11:29, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Is there any proof that a pillow has ever made an effective murder weapon? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.161.150.2 (talk) 03:05, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Style

This article has glaring problems with written English, especially sentence construction and tenses. Whatever the tagged issues may be for content, it won't improve unless someone who can write above 5th grade gets to work on it. Me, I'm too wedded to my pillows to even try btw.

Husband

I've heard this style often called a husband, but where did the name come from? Can anyone find a first use? -kslays (talk • contribs) 20:31, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

No, I dont have a citation or anything, but Ive always pictured a woman lying in bed with her arms around the pillow, the way she would embrace her husband. I've even seen one very literal husband pillow that has an arm so it can hug back. That was in Japan. Soap ^Talk/_{Contributions} 21:58, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

I think a husband cushion is a backrest with two little arms, like here and here. I found this too. I think if you can wrap your arms around the pillow I think it's called a body pillow. I've been unable to find anything citation-worthy though. -kslays (talk • contribs) 20:32, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Inflatable pillows?

What about inflatable pillows? I'd like to see more info about those, especially the comparison between regular and inflatable when it comes to accumulation of dust/microbes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.239.120.130 (talk) 22:14, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
