One of the most epic and amazing things you can possibly do as a young child is make a couch fort. A typical couch fort consists mainly of blankets and cushions, but if you really want to get shit real, chairs can be used. Access to a couch fort is pretty much impossible if you didn't take part in it's construction, as the inhabitants will tend to defend it well. Sadly, couch forts have a relatively short life-span, because at some point a parent or older sibling will demand to know why the fuck the couches have been stripped of their cushions, and will proceed to swiftly destroy the couch fort and re-construct the living room.
John and Ted spent almost 2 hours building their 4-roomed couch fort, and enjoyed it for the best part of 10 minutes before their parents kicked it down.

Humorously called the place where National Guard or Reserve military personnel go after initial training whereas Active duty armed service members will be assigned to a permanent duty station, or base. Reserve and National Guard get to go home after training and only have additional training once a month and two weeks out of the summer. They have the chance to be lazy at "Fort Couch" until duty calls.
Private Smith: I got my orders to go Fort Benning. Have you gotten yours?
Private Osborn: Oh, I am already assigned to a unit. I am Reserve.
Private Smith: Fort Couch, huh?
Private Osborn: Haha hell yeah, man!
