What's In Your Sofa?

OhMissScarlett said:
Here's a short list of some of the things:

Four large silver serving spoons
three infant teething biscuits(our son is now four!)
a whole sunday paper from 2002
about $3.96 in pennies
a poem I forgot I wrote
eleven Hot Wheels cars
pizza crust
fossilized french fries
several socks
one pink bra that no longer seems to fit

Wow.

It's the "large" silver serving spoons that make the list so impressive.

This is nothing after your sofa list, but when my sister's family moved to a new house they discovered that one of the cats had dug a storage nook for stolen baby toys in the underside of the guest-room mattress.
 
I decided to cut open an old sofa that I was getting rid of and I found, among other things, a $100 bill. After I found that bill I cut that sofa up really good. I have no idea how it worked it's way into the place it was, or how long it had been there, but I took it and spent it happily.
 
Oh Lord! With all my kids, I'd be too embarrassed to say.

Shop- Vacs are great, but not for clothes :D
 
In my old house, one of my kids tossed my key ring down a heater vent and I never did get them out.

That was my favorite key ring too.

So somewhere, somebody's got my favorite key ring with the keys to there house on it! Wonder if they'll ever find it?
 
My Mum will be giving me 84 mini boxes of Cheerios tomorrow. Oh joy. They WILL NOT end up down the side of the sofa. :D

There's gonna be a really varied diet at my house for the next two weeks.

84 mini boxes!?

Why that's ...let's see.....147,820 individual cheerios....wow! :p

Hi Lou.
 
Yeah, her friend was supposed to deliver 70,000 boxes, as a promo to households. She did 35,000 and is running out of time. A bit naughty to give them away by the large outer (84 in an outer, apparently!), but that's what she's done.

:eek: Will that make me a receiver of not-quite-above-board-should've-been-delivered-to-84-different-households-goods? :eek:

My Mum, leading me astray...

Lou :eek:

P.S. Hi Eric!
 
Just my daughter at this point, brand new couch as of November so there better not be anything in there yet. Now as for the old set, I have found the place socks go to hid when they want a divorce from their mate! There had to be at least a dozen odd socks, no mates! And of course the kids had out grown them.

Whatever law officials near you must be forming a dragnet to harness this web of evil Cheerio theft. ;)

God, that took forever to type!:devil:

Surrender of stolen goods and a full confession will usually bring down the sentence. Also give names of compatriots.

Poor Mum. :(

:eek: Grass her up? You can't be serious? She'd have a hit out on me quicker than I could say, "Cheerio!"

Grass her up?!

This is one I've never heard before. Love it! :D

Don't you turn stoolie on her, you dirty rat!

Getting back to the theme of thread: I have a nine year oldboy and a daughter who'll turn 2 on Sunday. We're afraid to look under the cushions but my wife keeps talking about a new couch.:rolleyes:

Scarlett, this is too funny. :D
What's really funny is that today my son asked if we could go digging for treasure in the sofa again. :rolleyes:
I told him to go look under his bed.

Our whole yardsale is under there.
 
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say probably about 20-30 pounds of cat hair.

No change, though, because as I'm sure you can imagine, none of us ever use the sofa. :D

Too bad you can't recycle all that into a sweater or something.

Broken sex toys anyone?

And are those electric clothes pins?

"Get away from that horse, it's not for sale!"
