Did Danny O'Neil hijack our "Selling The Couch" expression?

I thought I heard him late last week say somebody was being traded and was selling their couch, and how that was a great euphemism (or something like that). Danny paused to take great delight in the humor of it. Did anyone else catch that?

    Great spelling as always...

    WTF'ed for listening to Danny O'Neil.

    I would have flagged the post, but you cannot flag a moderator's post... etc. I'll let @TierbsHsotBoobs fill in the rest.

    "You can't flag a moderator's post, even when the fucktard admits to listening to Danny O'Neil"
    Not ashamed to say I like that show.

    Looks like he did.

    "This is about what Dustin Ackley is right now, an outfielder with diminished range who is hitting below .200 for the second consecutive month. It's not as bad as he started last season. Actually, it is significantly worse, which is the reason Ackley is now like an old couch you just need to get rid of. Post it on Craigslist for $10, hand it down to someone's kid who's going off to college, and if that doesn't work, call a friend over to help you haul it out to the curb and put a sign on it that reads, "FREE."

    For the record:

    Selling the couch
    Origin: Kendyl Taylor
    An expression stemming from when reserve Husky wide receiver Kendyl Taylor announced on Twitter that he was selling his couch and it had to go within 24 hours. The next day, it was announced he was transferring from UW. This quickly became the preferred manner Hardcore Husky posters announced on the boards that someone had lost their job, moved out, was transferring, or any other significant transition in life. One of the most beloved of HHB expressions.

    Good for him, it should be spread far & wide.

    Are you talking about selling the couch, or sex with Mandingo?
