All that blue velour gone…such a shame.
You always said you wanted a rock-in-chair…
Well THERE’S your problem…
His coach is ruined? There’s a man under that rock? That’s just tragic.
Hey, look at the bright side. It could be Dave Matthews poop.
You spelled couch wrong.
I told you I didnt like that decorator!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAA Too funny!!! I love it!
so THIS is what’s falling from the skies these days?
AAAhhh!!!!! so THIS is what happens when chuck norris sneezes! I never got it until i saw this picture.
coach? was he/she on the couch?
Coach? That looks more like a couch to me.
Coach is ruined? Well that sucks as much as the couch.
COUCH! COUCH! FFS!
Oh PLEEEEEEASE someone come through with the backstory for this one… if the rock came through the ceiling wouldn’t there be a lot more light in the room from the gigantic hole in the roof?
i think Hulk has to be fighting nearby
as funny as this might seem out of context, the backstory for this is most likely to do with mountaintop removal.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountaintop_removal
Its a method of coal mining that literal removes the top of mountains layer by layer to reveal the coal beneath. Sometimes the process sends boulders careening down into towns located in the valleys between mountains, and has been the cause of death before, including a three-year-old boy in West Virginia.

A sign of the apocalypse ↑↑↑↑↑↑↑
The rock was actually there first and the couch came from below like a shark.
Walmart really does have rock bottom prices.
everyone is standing around because it is lunch time.
“10 after 12:00, time for my hot pocket!”
I don’t think it came from the ceiling. There is no debris on the chair (look at the top, in particular). I think these guys were moving the boulder inside the house and it… rolled on the the couch?
Or it rolled through the wall, with a hole behind the camera. The would explain why there is debris on the floor but not the top of the couch.
I love how apathetic the old guys look considering there’s a bloody great rock in the middle of their lounge.
After storming the beach at Normandy or Iwo Jima nothing much can get some old guys very worked up.
Did someone say Hot Pockets? I hope it’s a vegetarian one. For those of us who don’t want meat but would still like diarrhea.
@tigress170
I now have to wipe the spit off my screen!!
ROFLMAO
Couch. My fault for not lerning to spel.
Comment WIN!!!
OMG! You are the KING!!!
Hurray for Flintstone I, North Koreas first spaceship. Congratulations to Kim-Jong Il and his fantastic windbreaker!
@pizzaburger
Oh ok!! I was thinking there was more to this story with a coach on a couch being smooshed by an angry Amazon Soccer mom whose kid didn’t get to be in the starting line up. So she got a big boulder and planned her revenge….
ok my imagination is going amok now
As much as I would love the credit for my hot pocket comment it’s totally stolen from Jim Gaffifan. Thx for the luv though!
@tigress170
make that *Gaffigan
“The afternoon was much quieter without the pomeranian constantly yapping.”
@seinberg
You found it so awesome that you’re speechless, eh?
In front of the couch, under the boulder, there’s a piece of sheet rock that I’d bet was ceiling. If it rolled anywhere I’d expect the debris to be left near it’s source. Also, a boulder that size wouldn’t be stopped by a couch in the middle of an empty room, even if those guys were (somehow) slowly rolling it around intentionally.
noooooo! it’s a big frozen poo from the aeroplane.
I don’t get it. Is it funny because there’s no couch, only a recliner? Or maybe the couch is behind the camera, where the guys are looking? I’d be looking at my smashed recliner.
My mom always told me not to sit on the arms of the chair, now I know why.
This is the work of Ludo from Labyrinth. He called the rocks!
@Kev
Ah you know, I think most of us didn’t look that closely to the picture. I had to do a recheck after I read your post to see the arm of the recliner bent in. I thought there was half of a sofa flattened under the rock
No left 4 dead tank reference?
Hey, where the hell is Grandma?
@Bzzt
SOFA!
Now that you mention it, that does indeed appear to be a recliner.
I’d be sad if a rock fell on my recliner. Although I think the people living below us would like it even less.
I do believe that’s a double-wide. Not that it means anything, exactly, but it does add to the irony, I think.
BACKSTORY:
Sorry to ruin all the fun but this happened here in my town a few years ago in So. Cal. It was during some heavy rains and this boulder let loose from a hillside behind the house and crashed thru the wall. The owners were out of town at the time. Imagine the phone call to them….
For those of you going where did it come from? It came from the wall. If you look closely you can see the skidmark where the boulder slid into the chair- it’s actually a rather deep indentation. Also, I do photography and used to work construction. The excess light coming from the wall is almost floor to ceiling (if my projectory is correct. Also, most people don’t use dry wall for ceilings and there is definitely a chunk dry wall- you can tell because it looks similar to plaster and small chunks fell off in the small amount of debris around it, something that is rather unique to dry wall/ plaster materials.
i saw it was an armchair INSTANTLY. i must be smart.
@Liz Alexander
Now I’m confused. Since when have people not used drywall for the ceiling? I’ve only seen non-drywall ceilings in houses built a very long time ago, and that was horse-hair plaster. Maybe the prices are different here…
How am I going to watch to tv?!?
What really sucks is his insurance and the town (who decided they didn’t have to put up a rock retaining wall earlier in the year) refused to cover it. He was stuck for the bill to remove the rock and repair his home.
coooooool…..there’s a Pterodactyl fossil !!
