Couch Diving? Is that like Armchair Diving?
Better, there is space for two.

Hey, couch diving could really be the next big thing ... I can see that there may be some old dinosaurs who persist in maintaining that couch diving cannot rival so-called "real" diving, but this is just plain narrow minded!
LOL.
Good one.

- just think of the advantages:
- Easy exit: close to access point, no crawling up ladders
That depends on your diving, though. If you're overhead diving in the attic you still got to lug your gear up the ladder.

- The problem of boring deco stops is a thing of the past - simply gaze at the tv
You still need to make sure it's a good program, or rather than hanging on deco you might run the risk of hanging yourself on deco.

- No boats - martyrs to sea sickness can participate in comfort
- Nutritional advantages: the barriers to having a quick snack on a long dive are much reduced
Yeah, but if the snack or anything elese induces sea-sickness you gotta clean up the mess unless you flood the living room and throw in a few fishes you can feed.

- No more diving elitism and snobbery ... the glorious couch of equality...
That may be wishfull thinking. Soon couch divers will argue who has the better, more comfy couch, DIR (Doing It Reclyning) or not, SCR vs. CCR (Snuggly Couch Rebreathing vs. Comfy Couch Rebreathing), disadvantages relying on power in massaging couches, where to mount the snack trey ...
... we're a loopy bunch, the discussions will never end.
