History books tell who defeated whom in the space battle and the nuclear race, which superheroes would win in a direct fight, or Marvel's or. DC's or the heroes of the big-budget Russian film Zaschitniki, coming to theaters in 2017, may be left to the imagination forever.

A couch or sofa is one of those "territories" for which there is always a battle due to its strategic position, which no one can really appropriate and which is difficult to defend. This is especially difficult in large families. With the appearance of screens, which are an alternative to television, the fight has somewhat calmed down, but nothing will ever calm the situation more than the kilometer-long sofa that was recently erected on the Russian coast.
