No, JD Vance did not have sex with a couch

Sounds like something some one who had sex with a couch would say.

[-] Dave@lemmy.nz 16 points 11 months ago

Technically it wasn't sex.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

That was what he said. To get out of child support payments.

Those poor little footstools are gonna have a hard life when they become chase lounges.

Especially because they’re ugly.

[-] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Won’t someone think of the ottoman?

[-] kometes@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

The eyeliner helps though.

[-] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Ok, raped a couch. I doubt it could consent.

[-] Moobythegoldensock@lemm.ee 59 points 11 months ago

Title is misleading. A better title would be, “No JD Vance did not write about having sex with a couch in his memoir.”

For all we know, he may have fucked a plethora of furniture that did not make it into his memoir.

It does seem like an oddly specific denial.

[-] LordTrychon@startrek.website 1 points 11 months ago

With how it's worded, it could even imply that he did reach completion, just that he was too selfish to help the couch get there.

[-] LordTrychon@startrek.website 1 points 11 months ago

And the next sentence is 'That is a lie.'

Is this calling the claim of his bad couch loving a lie, or his previous sentence where he denied it?

[-] billiam0202@lemmy.world 40 points 11 months ago

No, JD Vance did not fuck a couch.

A couch fucked JD Vance. There's not a chance in hell he's the pitcher.

Headlines from our current era that would totally baffle people just 10/20/30 years ago.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Naw. They’ve already come across rule 34.

They’ll just assume we’re freaks, like everyone else

[-] cranakis@reddthat.com 26 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

A searchable PDF of the memoir includes 10 mentions of the word “couch” or “couches,” ...But at no point in his memoir does Vance write about performing sex acts on a couch

AP: "We're not actually reading that garbage but Ctrl+F find nothing."

An Associated Press reporter reviewed pages 179 to 181 in a physical copy

"Ok,we read 3 pages."

[-] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

“AP… did you eat your vegetables?”

“Oh? Oh Really? Well how many did you eat?”

“No. I mean eat. Not just pushed around the plate…”

“That’s it. No more couch fuckin’ til you’ve finished your corn!”

[-] dudinax@programming.dev 25 points 11 months ago

Whoever Harris picks for veep, I'd like to see an ad of them saying "I believe JD Vance when he says he never had sex with his couch."

[-] kurwa@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

I don't think it was even his, he apparently did it in a store...

[-] ThePantser@lemmy.world 24 points 11 months ago

Because it was actually a loveseat.

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

True is it was a futon... But since futons can "transform" JD could never admit to sleeping with something "trans"

[-] Zier@fedia.io 4 points 11 months ago

You win the internet today 1000%.

[-] SilentStorms@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 11 months ago

This is so fucking funny.

When the main discourse around your new running mate is whether or not he fucked a couch, you did not pick a strong candidate. Trumps gotta be pissed.

[-] sik0fewl@lemmy.ca 17 points 11 months ago

People are saying he did have sex with a couch.

[-] Rapidcreek@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

When you have to explain it...

[-] Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I think you have to write "JD Vance did not have sex with a couch once" or else it's potentially libel.

[-] ech@lemm.ee 11 points 11 months ago

Are you sure? Lots of people are saying he did. Lots.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

My wife told me that story and I instantly went "That sounds fake, why would he admit that in a book?"

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

It wouldn’t have been the weirdest confession in a book.

[-] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

Hey, we're just asking questions.

[-] crawancon@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago

I heard it was non consensual.

check the cushions for eye liner.

[-] Gsus4@mander.xyz 8 points 11 months ago

Is that a codeword for Peter Thiel?

[-] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

I mean can anyone prove he didn't or hasn't?

[-] Ioughttamow@kbin.run 7 points 11 months ago

I believe the preferred nomenclature is couch botherer

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago
[-] Tronn4@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Step-couch what are you doing?

[-] vanontom@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

This story did not go through our standard editing process and has been removed.

It seems AP are cowards. They've removed the article.

[-] dfecht@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

They probably received a damning statement from the couch.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

No it's funnier - they factually don't know if he did or not. They can, however, factually claim that he didn't write it in his book.

[-] Dkarma@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Devon Nunez cow had to get involved.

[-] itsgroundhogdayagain@lemmy.ml 6 points 11 months ago

He's a couchfucker

[-] 242@lemmy.cafe 6 points 11 months ago

Eh, whether he wrote about it in his book or not he totally has the look of a couch humper. I would also guess he likes to pee in the bathtub. I mean just look at him.

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Everyone keeps saying JD fucked the couch but I know the true story... JD got raw dogged by the couch. Let's just say, calling him a tight ass is no longer literal.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Maybe not, but it's out there apparently and the Internet is fueled by <60 second attention spans.

[-] MermaidsGarden@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Not within the last five years, anyway.

[-] randon31415@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Reminds me that Zelensky's initial cause of popularity (the one that got him in the show casting him as the president of Ukraine) was from a 'Ukraine's got talent' like show where he played the piano with his penis.

[-] ATDA@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Bro he made the cushion look like the left side of that flag.
