    Never understood them. It just closely resembles a spiderweb above your head, to help you sleep?!

    According to my 30s of Google research it's to help "catch" bad juju in the air, like a spider's web catches bugs. Mothers would make them and hang them over their baby's cradles. Also something to do with a spider god.

    I'm sorry, @ThisPoorGuy . When I do dumb shit, it's usually for the amusement / annoyance of @ChrisTurk . I don't mean to make your job volunteer work any harder. :(

    They work great for kids who are scared to sleep because of nightmares. Got my kid one when he was little and told him the lore behind them. Really helped him sleep better. When he would want to sleep with me we had to carry it and hang it over his side of the bed in my room.

    He still has it up years later even though he's "over" believing in it (so he says, cough cough).

    We bought one for our daughter, but she insisted it wasn't working and her night terrors continued. :-\

    this apology is too sincere sounding, not very @THFYM like. Needs to be more crass and vulgar.

    Yeah, that's always a risk.

    Kind of like Monster Spray.

    Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

    (Sorry to hear she is having night terrors. Those are harsh and really hard on everyone!!!)

    Just found out another thing the Ring Doorbell is awesome for.

    Alerting you to when your kid finally loses the battle over "who is going to keep stuffing the garbage down more instead of taking it out."

    Ha. I won. Just watched him carry it out the front door.
