Plastic,
Plastic,
I hear that beds used to be made of sacks with hey in them.
that saying came from hundreds of years ago when they used to make beds out of straw, they would make a cloth sack to put the straw in.
dear boy,
i always sleep on mattress,but i never hit the sack.
because,my bed neither has paper or plastic on it.
simply,i am sleeping on mattress,but the normal folk
expression for saying hitting the sack it is a different
expresion,which it really does not recommended to you,
to know it,because it is very vage,slang and it is not
well spoken.
fraternally yours,
