A bean bag is a bag that is sealed and full of polystyrene beads. It is a very good type of seating for your dorm because it can save some space and is inexpensive. It is very light-weight, even the oversized ones, so it can be easily moved from one place to another, and can easily be kept if not in use so you can free more space in you dorm.

"I were" often follows the word "if" because "if" usually means you are wishing or imagining (The subjunctive form of the verb "to be"). Learn something new every day. Ok, grammar is boring. Moving on.

If I was. I think we should blame Fiddler on the Roof/Gwen Stefani for "If I Were a Rich Man/Girl." The Thompson Twins had it right with "If I Was King for Just One Day..." Personally my biggest grammatical pet peeve is the ubiquitous "very unique." The two phrases I cannot stand the most are "think outside the box" and "grow your business."
