New improved lyrics somehow remind me of Sofa No. 2.

The innovation that he missed was the remote control. Being able to switch channels without getting off the sofa changed everything.

God's finest sofa, feliz navidad!

and of course....

Pasta with polka, police coming through!!!

I'm not really a fan of straight-up horror movies. I don't have anything against them, they're just not my thing.

(Honestly, I'm a big scaredy-cat )

But I have heard good things about CITW, so I shall man up and watch it from behind the sofa.

I just had to lay on the sofa tonight in the dark with some *quality earphones listening to my original vinyl copy of Brain Salad Surgery.

I fully expect to find this most curious sofa inside of Lemony Snicket's house.

That is one method, but it is possible to do it with a planted card rather than a full deck.

This is my little brother's trick that he tends to do if someone finds out he's a magician and asks the inevitable 'show us a trick then!'

When he did it to me it was at our parents house. He came into the room, put his bag (a back pack) in the middle of the floor and sat down on the sofa. He then turned to me and did the imaginary pack spiel, just like Rose does in the video. I choose a card and announce it to the room.

He then tells me to go to his bag and look through it for his wallet. I find the wallet and take it out of the bag. It's not a big bag and there's only one wallet. He then tells me to open it and look through the card slots until I find a playing card. I do so, there's only one card. Predictably it's the card I've chosen.

There's no trick deck and I'm pretty sure it's not a trick wallet. He didn't handle the bag or the wallet after he put the bag down in the middle of the floor and sat down.

He won't tell me how it's done, but I've seen him do it numerous times to numerous people. It's always the same method although if he's out in public he might just keep his bag on his shoulder rather than put it on the floor and he'll handle his wallet and show the card, but in a way so that everyone can see what he's doing. I've asked him about that and the handling isn't necessary for the trick. the method is the same whether he's handling the bag/wallet or not.

He's a magician who designs tricks for other magicians. He's worked as a technical advisor for magic TV shows, designing props and methods. He specialises in mentalism. He doesn't talk that much about how the tricks are done. He'll help me out if I'm guessing along the right lines but I don't push for answers too much. I've done a little magic myself when younger, but nothing on his level.

The trick deck is just one way of doing this effect, but it's not the only way.

Meh. There are 10,000+ toilets moving ten times faster than this at any given moment. Not impressed.

EDIT: I'm more impressed by the world's fastest sofa:

If it was a tank built out of expensive sofas it would be quite effective. Deploying ablative scratching post armor would solve the problem.
I hear he was originally going to call it the "Pussy Cannon" but people kept getting the wrong ideas.

With a consistent 3 (the minimum) electoral votes.

I'm from Kansas, where it is pretty much guaranteed that any vote to a non-republican (presidential) candidate is pretty much pointless. All 6 of those electoral votes are going red unless "you look over and see Satan sitting next to you on the sofa, and then look out the window and see snow".

I was thinking more like the common house spider (http://www.uksafari.com/housespiders.htm) hence why they're all sitting around the sofa waiting for the dude to put the TV on!

Couch/Sofa, dude.

I suppose you've already checked every trouser- and jacket pocket, every bag you used, the washing machine and dryer, the laundry basket, the fridge, the sofa crevices and under the sofa and bed. That's all that comes to my mind right now. Maybe this'll help you: http://wherethefuckdidileavemykeys.com/

I think you guys aren't giving him the credit he deserves really. No one ever said that any one particular piece of art from an artist decides whether or not they have something valid to say, and in the interests of swaying you over towards thinking that he's up to his hype, check out his work on the west bank wall and possibly the simpson's sofa-intro-thingy that he did.

I think it's great as you could probably tell. If he was mindlessly scribbling or just putting foul language up then i could understand anyone's concern, but they're at least well considered and put together. And at least he's trying to make a difference with what he says. Moar subversion!

That was cool, but how stupid would you have to be to discover such a device then just toss it on the sofa instead of putting it in your pocket? That ruined it for me.
