Whose parents never took the plastic off the sofa?
Did they get the couches in the 1990s or earlier and still have the plastic on it to this day?
MINE DO !!

I don't know if it's a trend or paranoia. My parents did this in one room and left it that way decades later.

Must be semi common among people who are currently 60 and up. I know a lot of older people who did that. But they used the furniture like normal. The plastic is on it to this day.

My folks did this in the living room 35+ years ago and left them that way.

Wasn't really a trend IMO. It was a 1970's-1990's paranoia of ruining furniture.

My parents got their living room set around 1999. The plastic is still on it to this day. I don't live there anymore.

My grandparents did this. My parents did not.

My family always wanted to protect their furniture, but then they never got to enjoy it. Sucks.

I did for a long time before I chose to sit on the floor.

You know, I took off the plastic, but then I covered the sofa with blankets.

Yes, there's one sofa in my family house that's like that.

My parents put plastic on their sofa before I was born. This was in 1975 or so. The plastic remains to this day.

This is too funny and too relatable.
