I'm sorry, is that WFTV or WTF-V? Kudos to the underpaid guys who struggled to rescue her. Makes me feel sick that Harry Shearer demands so much pay.

I don't know whether to laugh at that poor woman or feel sorry for her.

You cant but help think how pathetic and humorous it is but its a shame at the same time.She could have atleast made an effort to get off the couch.With a bit off luck she could've fell off and landed on her belly

I heard from FoxNews that the lady had been on the couch so long, the material bonded to her skin.

Scary.

Hmmmm, I think there should be a "Weird News" thread for all the interesting stories to be placed. A thread for each piece of news is a little too much.

I think it's a hoax.

I mean, if even if she was using a bedpan the entire time she was on the couch, that would still require movement.

Plus, if her skin actually 'bonded' to the couch, then that would mean she was nude, or pretty damned close to it. And nobody wants to see a 600 pound woman nude, believe me.

There's still hope for humankind, just not of the American variety.

I haven't read it but I am going to assume it's fake. And all the threads in this forum these days are the same. They are all "Hey look at this link and talk about it"
Where have all the debates gone?!

One solitary thread for all Fortean posts sounds like a fantastic idea.

Re: her skin bonding with the couch material; I doubt she would have had adequate clothing on. I don't want to sound crude or nasty here, but I should think there were enough bodily rolls for exposed skin to stay in contact with the fabric.
