Figures I was sitting on the couch when I read this instead of at work, or in the computer room, or.. well anywhere else in the house.

Meme from James Tauber, Greg Newman, Justin Lilly and Brian Rosner:

Just to drive the point home, this is a picture of the half wall behind the couch looking into the kitchen:
