The Ultimate Couch Potato
A 480-pound woman died after spending six years on her couch. And she wasn't even five feet tall. Morbidly obese? No fucking kidding. The couch was grafted to her skin after that much time. I would love to see a list of her medical ailments after all that time. Depression, high blood pressure and organ failure, to name a few. I'm thinking that if I were the guy living with her (who should definitely be investigated, for Christ's sakes), I would call in authorities after three months, if not six. Of course, maybe he just assumed that she left the couch during the day when he wasn't around.
I wonder how long it look for the couch to be grafted to her skin.

A group known as the League of Human Dignity helped arrange for Deuel to be driven to a local livestock scale, where he could be weighed.
Sounds rather dignified to me.
