An act of combustion that takes place either atop, or inside a couch. The couch burns, along with anyone unfortunate enough to be on the couch at the time, as everyone knows couches are fortresses that trap anyone from attempting to escape their impending doom.

Usually meant as an insult to one's intelligence.
"I hope you die in a couch fire with a bum trying to claw his way into your kidneys so he can use it for booze money."

The great American ceremony of retiring a couch.

Step 1 - take couch to wilderness, bring plenty of beer
Step 2 - start bonfire - get smashed - sit on couch with friends and reminisce.
Step 3 - when well smashed and bonfire needs more fuel, add couch to fire.
Billy - Hey Sally, should we reupholster this thing?

Sally - No Billy ... It's time for a couch fire.
