This has been a sometimes fun, but most often infuriating discussion between my wife and I, as well as other family members and friends whenever we bring it up: which side of the bed is the front? Is it the foot end? The side where the heads are? Or are you a rebel and is it the side you get out of bed at?
Then it’s the side not touching any walls.
If your wife tells you “object X is in front of the bed”, where do you think it is?
