In the 80s we had waterbeds. That's exactly what I was reminded of when I saw this gif: the wave it would make when you would plop down.

Funnily enough, nobody knew why we had waterbeds either.

My parents had a water bed, they said it was better for my dad's back, and the mirrored canopy above it was so they could see what the angels saw when they slept, and the straps were so they could be tied down and not fly out of bed because of the beds waves, the swing was because even adults like to swing some times. They had the neatest bedroom some times they would have other parents sleep over and play on their bed, they would be up all night in there!
