This Carpet Pun War On Tinder Is The Best Thing You'll See Today (Photos)

When I was a kid, I took great joy in imagining what inanimate objects would look and act like if they suddenly came to life, “Beauty and the Beast” -style.
Our home phone (cord-bound landline, of course) had a shrill voice and tight, springy curls; her name was Cathy, and she lived up to her 'chatty' moniker proudly.
The toilet, Jon (no H) was a round, grumpy old man. He mostly liked to sit on his La-Z-Boy and shoot the sh*t in his old grumbly voice.
Some objects were easier to imagine than others. Carpets, for instance, were hard: They were all so complex.
Though I've long since abandoned my hobby of personifying household items, it appears someone else has since adopted it.
