Trying again(bad gateway, bad!):
One believes the ad, since it’s obvious that only a small snippet of the ‘couch’ fits in a photograph(it could even be a bolster, there’s no way to know).
86 ft!! Good lord, that’s not a sofa it’s a boat! A boat with a homey pattern. Plus it reclines.
A recliner on each end. I guess by the time you get from one end to the other you could use a little rest.
The good thing is that with that much sofa, you could have one of the recliners in front of the TV, and the other in front of the fridge…
And one in the local pub…
You can get in your daily exercise by running laps around the sofa. Sounds good to me.
And you can rehydrate properly each time you pass the pub.
Which Oompa Loompa foot did they use for measurement?
Yes! Free sofa!!
Free are the random auntie stains, pay nothing for the missing leg or the accordion on one end!
And if you act now, we’ll throw in this lovely doll and beautifully stuffed bird…no reason, we’re just really, really, really
creepynice people!Call.
Call quick.
Call right away!
You don’t want to miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime chance!
That number again is 1-800-YOU-SUCK! Operators are sitting by! Call now!
Once in a lifetime…
Because your life will end once the doll gets to you.
..with every purchase of a new Ferrarri
Okay, it’s a fugly sofa, but 86 feet! Just think of the couch fort you could make with that! Screw bunkers, I’m making a sniper tower.
And how much will it cost to reupholster said sniper tower? ๐
Reupholster nothin’. That pattern and colour scheme would confuse and throw off an enemy’s aim — or at the very least offend their sense of style — which could be the difference between plugging or getting plugged between the eyes with a sucker dart.
“Honey, have you seen the remote?”
“No dear, but I sill have 42 feet of cushion to check and so far I’ve found $32.01 in loose change six cat toys and three snakes!”
“Oh, good! I have a new recipe for snake I want to try.”
Only six cat toys in half of an 86 ft sofa?! Yeah right!
“We’re going to need a bigger lounge…”
And a 52 foot plasma TV, whoohoo!!
Duuuude, that would be so high def you could count the crabs in the hairs of Snooki’s mustache!
Too bad it’s not a sectional. I could put it in a square in the front room, then weave it down the hallway and into the guest bedroom. I think I would still have some parts left over.
86ft?!?!? I could get it and be the Sofa King again!!
I haven’t been able to reclaim that title since 6th grade!
I never could figure out who Todd was or what we did though…
86′-0″ (that’s 12 7′ long sofas*) no wrestling with getting that up the stairs.
My grandfather had a sofa just like that, except the accordion was on the other end.
(My grandfather was Paul Bunyan.)
So your father was a blue ox? There are issues with that, but I’ll not go into them at this time. 8)
Paul Bunyan was not a blue ox
Paul Bunyan had a blue ox
EE-I-EE-I-O………
The blue ox’s name was Babe.
E-I-E-I-O
When Paul Bunyan finished his breakfast, he harnessed Babe and wrapped the chain seventy-two times around the foot of the frozen Whistle River. Yelling to the men to stand clear, he shouted at Babe to pull. Babe pulled that chain into a solid bar and sank knee deep into solid rock, but that ornery river refused to budge. So Paul grabbed the chain and he and Babe gave such a yank that the river jerked loose from its banks and they dragged it across the prairie so fast it smoked. After a while, Paul looked back and saw the river was as straight as a gun barrel.

Blue ox for sale, take it for free!
Coffy, Paul B. was Isaac’s grandfather. Babe was as close to a son as I ever heard he had. Therefore, Isaac’s father may have been a blue ox. Now, knowing how an ox comes in to being, I know it can’t reproduce. So Isaac must have been adopted.
Half the day is gone and still no MLK speeches?
I have a dream.
A dream that sofas and loveseats will one day live together in complimentary fashions. Neither will claim dominion of the ottoman nor the coffee table. Both living in harmony and comfortableness.
I have a dream that sofas will be free to be reupholstered to match the television set.
I have a dream that the blue sofa and the green recliner will no longer disagree on the color of the walls. They shall be free to choose the degree of scotchguard protection they need.
I had a dream… that I could afford an interior designer.
I just want to do Sparky’s will. And he’s allowed me to go up to the sofa. And I looked it over. And I’ve seen the promised length! I may not sit there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will sit on the lengthy couch!
This sofa was custom made for the Duggars.
The Duggars, Octomom, and six dozen Lionel Richie cheeseheads.
And a partridge in a pear tree.
I don’t know why every time I see a list of some sort, I feel the need to end it with that. Christmas springs eternal in my mind I guess.
Is that Gallagher’s giant couch from his special “The Maddest”?
Well, now we know where those 5,000 barrels of crude oil went.
it’s free because you have to buy a new house to put it in. hi all. i cant read this site at all from work, and by the time i get home at 530 pm eastern time, all the good comments are taken. i sure do miss reading this site and everyone’s comments…. its nice to have a day off!
now, get your feet off the couch!
I have the same issue. A couple of times, Llamanun (BBUH) posted the daily snark at 7 am CST instead of 8, so I actually got to read it and comment before I went to work.
I am not sure if that is still the case or if that was a fluke because lately, I have opted to oversleep and then be forced to run around like a maniac in an effort to get to work on time.
Lately = winter. Ugh.
I blame my flannel sheets.
Winter, winter. I know that word. It is something that happens up north and to the east, right? Has something to do with no sun and cold stuff out of the sky.
Shut your beak, Windrose! ๐
As soon as I figure out how, I’m sending it all to you, WR!
I think Sparky has seen one too many episodes of The Big Comfy Couch.
As long as the doll isn’t part of the package…
It’s not the size that matters – it’s what you do with it that counts.
“Canada’s Really Big” begins to play in my head whenever I see that phrase.
Would I be asking too much to hope that it had an 86′ pull out bed as well?
That sounds like one hell of a party.
If it had an 86′ bed, there’d be no room for the reckliners <G>
Buddy came in from out of town and was buying lunch, so I had to depart the snark early.
I have a [corey] of sorts in that, for residential design, I try to get an understanding of what a client needs by using a 7′ couch.
So, when they want a living room, it gets to the nub of it when you aske them if they want a room two couches wide and one deep (which is what a 20′ x 10′ LR is).
So, the concept of a 12 * 7-foot-couch couch is a bit boggling. As is the image of trying to get one up six flights of stairs (86′ being most of seven 12′ floor-to-floor stories tall).
Wow, memory just kicked in; you need a special interstate permit to trailer anything 86′ long east of the Mississippi. No wonder it has to be gone by Thursday, Friday at the latest–the extra-long=load permit expires . . .
[/corey]
Imagine how many Roombas one would need for a living room that size!
Imagine how many cats you could drive insane with that many Roombas!
Might be commonplace with ebenty-dozen, and the cats would ride them around the room <G>
ok, what is the plural of roomba?
Roombi.
Surely it should be roombae?
I now know that my “roombas” was incorrect. My next guess would have been Roomsba.
But I’m pretty sure that LRC is correct – Roombi. Kind’a like: one stewardess; a group of stewardi.
Some words are funny that way: One goof; several geef……..
But now that I think about it a bit, I like rattieโs roombae. If only I hadnโt CLed my Funk & Wagnallsโฆโฆ.
Well, “roomba” probably works for singular or plural; “rumbas” just scans wrong (as either illiterate gang warfare or badly-spelt South American dancing).
And don;t call me Shirly (or Laverne).
Are we gonna need another of them collective nouns for Roombรฆ?
Oh look, there is a Roomba, and he brought some friends. (Correct pluralization of Roomba)

I’m having trouble deciding if I like Astro’s comment better or WR’s.
Well, have some doors, both of you.
So to all the cats I say:
“Go forth my sweet kitties, and shred the sofas of life,
leave not a sliver of upholstery upon which you have not laid your touch,
for until you touched it, it had no meaning to me,
with your touch, you brought your own special personality to light upon the material world,
and thus improved it.
For when you are long passed from this life, and I look fondly in the vision of my mind upon your memories,
as I sit upon that shredded sofa, my own tears shall fall upon the same surface as you yourself touched,
and together we will be again, if only for a moment, sitting quietly, upon sofa we shared in our own special way.
I wont be remembering yelling at you, or squirting you with a water bottle, or taking you in to have your toes cut off. I wont be remembering you running scared from the sound of a rolled up newspaper, from me.
I wont be remembering anything but you, in all your feline glory,
stretching up in a graceful arch, with the look of pure glee upon your face,
and the sound of fabric ripping, as you happily do what comes naturally to you,
marking your territory.
Only fond memories, will those of you be, to be.”
Above poem by Jenn Phaewryn O’Gwynn.
Well, I’ve spent the day being really bored. And the fruit of my boredom seems to be this song.
I’d like to share with you all the following song, entitled:
Is That An Oboe in Your Pocket?
A most perky little tune, Astrognash. Please sir, may we have another……..
That could almost be “A Wizards Staff has a Knob on the End”, but I am probably reading too much Pratchett these days.
No such thing as too much Pratchett.
Unless you’re –
Nope, no such thing.
I have a sad. It’s kind of a scary sad. And it doesn’t do any good to talk about it, so I won’t fill up space here with details. I just want to say how kind you all are to give me some smiles. You are good people.
Doors for Windy, not for the content of the comment ๐ Check it out, toddler-distraction!
::HUGS::
I take back my earlier comment about the weather. If you’re already sad, I won’t send the sad weather your way.
You have my love and all of my dead mummified lizards.
We’re here… if you need virtual hugs.
If you need a physical hug, I’ll request vacation time and be there in 2 days. 8)
Thanks, EB, AR, Lara, and LL. You have helped a whole bunch. I know this thing will work itself out and we’ll be fine, until the next crisis. 8) I set up my two canary pairs to breed, and let out the love birds, and they are even now nibbling on my neck. How can anything be bad with that going on? Oh, and toddlers, sensitive eyes, llamas, and geckos. Love you all!
Hang in there. We’re here to listen, as well as snark.
So sorry to hear it, my friend.
Hope this helps Windy:
Circle, circle.
Dot, dot.
Now you got your cootie shot.
If it helps any, Pickles and Winston took some time out of their busy schedule of running the hell away to bid you good tidings and a bit of bird seed Winston nicked from the pet shop for reasons he’s not at liberty to say right now, because he hasn’t the slightest idea, and they were the one thing slowing him down, and not the fact that he’s just a wee bit on the pudgy side. At all. So stop thinking that.
Now I’m laughing hysterically. 8) Thanks, again, all of you!
Hammy, yet another further different Punchity Punch Punch!
G’Night, Auburn Avenue!
I thoroughly enjoy helping friends move. You will never see the bumper sticker “Yes, this is my truck and no I will not help you move” on my truck. However, if any of my friends ever acquire an 86-foot-long couch, I think I’ll start screening my calls.
