    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.

    No, JD Vance did not fuck a couch.

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

    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.”

      “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!”

    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.”

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

    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.

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

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