Consisting of a spring arm fashioned from a lampstand and a bucket/basket fashioned from a magazine rack, this weapon clips into the purpose-built ottoman.
Once assembled it will allow attackers to project cushions great distances in their quest to break down sofa fortifications.
Iron helmets
optional.

well I have the padded Trojan Horse complete with cushioned saddle, so there! nah nah. |

This reminds me of a great old Ronald Searle cartoon of the kids battling it out for real in the living room, while their parents think they are playing cowboys and indians. |
|

Also an insiders' joke for the older halfbakers: Trebuchet. |

Surely this is the companion piece to the recliner footrest catapult. |

I am concerned that the Halfbakery apperas to be on the brink of a fabric-based arms race, with all these new indoor weapons systems being developed. I suggest that Strategic Furniture Limitation Talks are instituted immediately, lavishly funded by the United Nations, and held, of course, in a suitably neutral location, like the Resident's Bar of the Geneva Hilton. In order to encourage attandance, delegates will have all their expenses reimbursed in advance. |

Ooh, yes! I'd like an expenses-paid vacation in Switzerland...er, that is, I'd be willing to take time out from my pressing obligations to selflessly serve the halfbakery in such a capacity. |

I could chair the meeting and table the motions. We'd form a cabinet to address deep-seated hostilities, so only resolutions couched in terms of trust and understanding would reach the floor (others being swept under the rug). We'd begin with a cease-fire, place observers on the ground, and establish a ceiling on future production while we have this window of opportunity. From there, any progress we make would be simply divan. |

Be prepared for waves of carpet-bombing.. |

Shouldn't these "accessories" be annotations to the original idea? |

The government of the peace-loving nation of UnaBubbaria are not prepared to allow our SCI (Scatter Cushion Initiative) weapons system to be bundled into the same category as The Sofa Fortifications Plan of the Monkfishermen. Our sovereign nation must reserve the right to defend itself from the belligerent acts of other nations, as it sees fit. |

That sounded a bit less like [UnaBubba], and a bit more like DubyaBubba to me. Scary. By the way, don't blame me because I voted for Bill & Opus in the last election. |

And you didn't even see my lips move. |

I picture huge batteries of antimacassar guns, ringing the optimum tv viewing position. |

All of this is still subject to lightning raids by cats, who come tearing down from "the hills" and shed fur over everything, scratching as they go. |

Chaff required - fire some tin foil in their direction and they'll play with it for hours. |
