People/pets yes, blankets no. For people- it's not exactly a kink but I really "enjoy" someone putting their full weight on me.

It's easy, just pat your lap whenever somebody passes you on public transport.

I know what you mean. As a child my dad would ask me to lay down on his back because it felt good, sometimes we'd end up falling asleep like that. Fast forward a decade or two and when this memory came through asked some SO's to lay on my back and it was great.
