Just to be clear, the story about the couch does not appear to be true: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/jd-vance-couch-cushions/

A lot of people are saying it's true. Smart people. The best people are saying that.

Ooh it's one of those "fact-check" articles. Welp.. pack it up boys...

[-] bandwidthcrisis@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Er, snopes.com has been debunking urban legends since the 90s (not only on the site but also newsgroups such as alt.folklore.urban). I think it deserves a little more respect than 'one of those "fact-check" articles'.

Yeah but some urban legends deserve to be kept alive for some time.
