Vote for Long-Time Nalts Viewer’s Ugly Couch
Diane wants to win this contest because she believes her couch is not just ugly. It’s the ugliest.
I find it such an odd goal I almost respect it. Vote here.
Well it’s nice to know there’s a pool on when I’ll get arrested. Seems that my crawling through a Denver airport worried a few YouTube viewers. Here’s TK’s pool on my arrest. Titled “Viral Video Genius Vilified Voraciously.” And for the record, we paid for Spencer’s fries. The real pool should be on when Nalts…
I only had to read about one of the batch of dead birds to suspect Notradamus must have predicted this. But alas, it seems we’ve had a few (source: BBC): 400 turtle doves were found dead in Faenza, Italy, in the days after New Year. Turtle doves, of course, refer to the Old and New…
At the request of Marquisdejolie (a fellow creator, loyal reader, member of the WVFF back row, and buyer of a new fridge for his mama), here is a survey of the unwashed masses. I’ve asked some critical questions and will report the results. Answer the survey questions. You’re anonymous. And one of the unwashed masses,…
It appears YouTube continues to extend benefits to its “Partners,” giving them a distinct advantage overΒ Β YouTube posters who haven’t qualified. The bar has been steadily lowering on what qualifies a “YouTube Partner” (a group the LA Times calls “the money-making patrician class.” Almost anyone who posts regular videos with a decent audience can become…

Nothing was really interesting in my RSS readers for online-video, so let’s turn to the world of television. My new slogan on YouTube is “Kevin Nalts: Because TV Sucks Anymore.” Here’s an Onion article that announces the new host of “The View.” A 900-pound giant squid that the producers believes is female.” I have been…

Thank you Nalts, I’m so glad someone appreciates my strange desire to win!

@Diane
I voted. Hope you win. π
Is that photo digitally enhanced? It almost gave me seizures to look at it. It can’t REALLY be that color.
I voted. By the way, who are you?
Oh yeah. . . . that was one butt-ugly couch.
Thanks Jim, Dahlia and Sukatra for voting!
Dahlia, believe it or not, this is the real deal. Funny you mention that because someone else asked me the same thing! But I guarantee you … this is the real couch. No color or ugly enhancements.
Funny part is I think the photos make the couch look better than it really is in person! Hence the youtube video… to get a closer look at its heinous pattern, flat mattress, broken springs, and super rough, balled up fabric. Hell hath no fury like a worn out couch!
Long time Nalts fan, Diane
Thanks Crimsong19!
PS Here is the link on Youtube. I forgot to add that. Lol!

Okay see here’s the thing. 1. why do manufacturers make couches like that. 2. why do people buy them?
I don’t even own a couch. Visitors have to sit on chairs.
Looks like somebody sharted on it.
Got my vote! :o)
Okay Diane, here’s what I want to know.
What drugs were you on when you went into a store, saw that couch, thought to yourself “oh, I like it! I think I’ll buy it!”, and then plopped down god knows how much money for it?
alternatively, if someone gave it to you, why didn’t you just shoot them before they made it in the door?
I have 3 couches that are just as ugly: missing legs, dog and mom urine stained, sister burned (cigarettes), bum-flattened, roach-crapped, dust mite infested hideous health hazard eyesores.
But I’m not in the contest, so I voted for your clothmonster, D.
I made a write in nomination for Marqui’s couch.
^ Thanks, Kelly. Did I mention that two out of three of my couches have large tears and holes where the dog tried to dig her way into them to get at the tasty bugs or that there are scotch tape (industrial width) patches all over them?
Sadly, I cannot blame it on a bad acid trip Nalts. Although if you stare and it long enough and jump up and down then close your eyes… it has similar affects.
Marquis, I must say, that is a couch with character.
Is this your couch?

Opps, wrong link. Is this your couch Marquis?

Sure, you help some lady nobody knows named Diane out to win a gross couch contest, but you don’t help your ol’ pal Reubnick, who comments almost all of your posts with some huge ego ridden comment about himself, win the Doritos thing! That’s just great! Thanks a lot!
Oh wait, I forgot you are also entered in it…Nevermind. May the best man win…
Anyway, back to relevance, I voted for the couch because I am a very nice individual who enjoys making new friends, even if it requires him to vote for a couch. Am I still typing?
@16
Not only is that my couch, Diane, but that’s my dog on it. How’d you get this picture? Kinda creepy. I guess you can google anything these days.
Well, I’ve recovered the couch and given the dog a haircut and I’m compressing the video I made today of the couch. It should be up on YouTube in three hours ( 9 PM Central Time).
Four minutes of hideous couch. Don’t miss it!
π
@16 that couch looks like it’s made out of twinkeis
@19
Definitely. Only twinkies might be a bit more durable and comfortable with that squishy center/cream filling.
That is one butt-ugly couch. I voted for it also.
I used to have a fairly butt-ugly couch myself. It was free. I was broke. I had previously been siting on a footlocker. Don’t mock those of us who will take any available seating that isn’t infested with critters.
Okay, here’s my ugly couch video:

@22
Marquis – you have taken the ugly couch term to all new level! They’ve had this contest for the past couple of years… keep your eyes peeled for it – I think yours are a shoe in (nutcheese is right)!
I’ve got ugly plumbing, too. Any Ugly Pipes contests out there?
there are a few contest sites out there – that lists contests by category… I’ll send you the link.
PS – thanks everyone … we’re now eeking by in 3rd place. a little under 200 votes from 2nd and 400 from 1st! Yay Nalts!
I tried to enter the ugly couch contest today but they just sent me this link:

This maybe truly one of the worst ‘couches’ I have ever owned.

^ Like sitting on a hard park bench, eh?
@28
We still have one of those in our basement. They are terrible.
@29, 30, all
nothing like cold metal for a bed/couch frame.
PS WE ARE IN 2ND PLACE… Not quite sure how that happened but it did.
Check it out!

hate to be the buzz kill here, but I don’t think either one of your couches is what I would call ugly – old, dull, worn out, beat up, dorm ready perhaps. Actually, Diane I think your harboring a potential fire hazard. Marquis sympathy card is in the mail. Judging by last years winner, the standards for ugly seems to require a blanket or bag over the whole thing at all times. just sayin’
@32
Ok now you have to post a photo of your own couch. I’m curious at what you have going at your place.
This couch is a wretched beast that needs to put put down (where’s Sarah Palin when you need her).
For the sake of decency and comfort. Unlike the other contestants… At least theirs appear to have some cushions left. My couch’s cushions are flat similar to what deflated pancakes might feel like if you sat on them…Depressing!
Like Marquis’ couches, this one has several qualities for your sensory pleasure … a true scratch and sniff couch if you will.
As you can tell from my video, I’m running a halfway house for unrehabilitated couches. We have room for one more in the living room and one for the front porch. Bring it over.
@32
buzz kill.
@35 I warned ya! I was just sayin’.. I looked at last years winner on their page, figuring that would be some sort of indication of what they thought ugly was, and the woman’s couch was in perfect shape, just a crappy, dated and out of style pattern. Ugly after all, like beauty, is rather subjective and I don’t own a couch, still looking for the perfect one.
ps I still voted for yours π
@37
Thank you π
I saw last years too. Completely hideous! But, there is nothing even close to that in this years. So I def. say go for the multi-sensory violator! Youtube vid to come today (maybe, if I can squeeze it in).
Last call for votes. It’s closing time folks. Tonight 11:59pm est.
Be there…
