The History of The Stinky Couch

The Stinky Couch has been an honourable member of the Speed household since the spring of 1984. Ah, as I look back on that glorious day! A new couch of lovely tan comprising of numerous plush cushions with the capacity to be comfortable for 5 hours or more. It was a site of many joyous events ranging from the movie premier of She-ra to the disposal of our hideous orange-brown carpet. The Stinky Couch comforted many "couch-ridden" illnesses and was the site of many a nasty spill of grape juice. In recent years the Stinky Couch began to dwindle, its cushions ripping, frame cracking and once brillant tan colour a sickening brown-grey. In addition, it began to vent the most terrible of stenches which occasionally rendered certain family members unconsious for the entire duration of movies. Sadly, the Stinky Couch has retired to what we like to call "the dump" and has been replaced with a much hardier, more comfortable, less brown living room set. This page is a tribute to the Stinky Couch and all the good times.
