As a kid it is normal to have your favorite blankee (aka blanket). As you get older it is not as socially common to carry your blankee around as you go to bars and such but it is ok to have a favorite blanket nonetheless. These "adult blankees" are termed "throws" and are just as soft and comforting as the one you had as a kid. The makers of these "throws" were smart enough to disguise the adult blankees with sophisticated designs so as not to show off your former childish blankee needs.
