I've never heard this guy talk so hearing his voice...

I mean, I'm not saying that I've ever talked to a couch fucker but....yeah, the voice sort of says couch fucker.

There’s a reason that rumor spread so effectively

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The author of the tweet never even tried to claim it was true, either. When the couch thing blew up, they even specifically said that it was just a joke. You’re exactly right, though. There’s just something about Vance that makes it seem believable.

Well, if you've read any of his Hillbilly Elegy, it fits. He does this weird oscillation where he talks about his humble roots, and then is incredibly condescending towards anyone in a similar situation.

Apparently he's better than that now.

He could talk about how he was so desperate he fucked his couch. But then, once he had money, he was able to attract an actual woman. He still occasionally fucks a couch, just for nostalgia, but all those other people who are still fucking couches are sad and gross.

It would blend right in.

Lets call it what it is. He fucks underage couches. That makes him a rapist. He's a couch rapist.

He read of therapist couches and messed up the spaces in the words

[–] InternetUser2012 3 points 3 months ago

Lol, that's good

[–] Guy_Fieris_Hair@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Is he an analrapist?

Age of consent or not, I've never heard a couch talk, let alone consent.

It doesn't matter the type of material or the designer brand the couch is either, the couch isn't "dressed like it's asking for it." Unless it's enthusiastic affirmation, it's rape.

[–] MrVilliam@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

I've never asked so I can't say for sure that it's not impossible, but I've personally never heard a couch speak. Therefore, I'm not sure any couch is capable of consent. Ergo, all couch fucking is couch rape.

I dunno about couches but my gaydar went nuclear at that clip.

But of course, he can't be gay, because he didn't want to suck dicks at the age of 8.

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

at least he isn't a squeaker like shapiro or peterson.

Vance's eyes look like the soul has vacated his body long ago

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago

"well, you know... That happened three, ehh four years ago!"

Why did she not ask him if he organized any support for the innocent BLM protestors that did not commit any crimes? Why just the Jan 6 insurrectionists?
