This one is an LOL – I know I did after I finished writing it. Of course, self-admittedly, I regularly LOL at my own jokes!

The ridiculous remark about something being “better than sex” is most often used about eating something – an extravagant restaurant meal, a fancy dessert or a special dish whipped up by a loving partner. I suppose, it is some sort of complimentary remark made by someone who isn’t getting any and possibly trying to remedy that situation. Good luck with that.
And I know there are situations involving physical limitations where the expression (or the thought behind it) is used to make the best of the bad situation.
