Others liked sitting there at the time, but have since then found more comfortable seating arrangements for themselves, such as another sofa. Some never sat in my couch or ANY couch to begin with, and hate me and everyone who sits on couches because they're so mainstream. There's even a group that sat on the couch, have a different sofa, and constantly tell me how much they hate my couch now, and how much better their sofa is.  On the other hand, some people on my couch have only glanced at other sofas and can't stop sticking their noses into the air to talk about how much better their couch is, despite not really knowing it as a fact.  There's even a group of people who don't like couches OR sofas, but enjoy sitting on the pre-couch technology bedrock. Every now and then, a few buggers go to my couch and steal some cushions for themselves.  I don't mind, because my couch and their sofa enjoy raiding each other for cushions ourselves.</blockquote>
