I’m in favor of the fine-as-it-is couch, but only on weekends. Weekdays, seems like you’re being paid to chisel steps into success mountain so your boss will be able to climb it more easily.
Success is merely an evaluation of you by others who’s scale of achievement does not or may not coincide with your own internal scale. If you go by your own scale then you really are a success!
and as one male of the species explained long time ago, the couch seems to draw me like a magnet. The dilemma for said males of the species is being the first one to grab it. Problem solved by female of the species who stuffed home with 5 of them, sofas that is only to be blamed for putting something in the gravity most likely some kind of knock out drug preventing cleanup after same meal.
“Out, out, brief candle! Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” Perhaps also the tale of success.
when I finished reading the other comments the only thing I had was a song playing in the background of my mind. Blue jeans, hot dogs, pop music. Could not find a link in Youtube to post here
The hard climb up Success Mountain might be more appealing if there was a better chance of reaching the peak rather than becoming trapped in Mediocrity Canyon.

The funniest thing to me about strips like this is that they are the exact opposite of who Pastis is and his story.

What the strip leaves out is that you have to climb to the top of Success Mountain to reach the start of the Easy Slide.
