cushionstrata
/ˈkʊʃənˌstrɑːtə/nounVerified NewThe sediment of crumbs, coins, remotes, and small objects deposited over time inside sofa cushions.
Excavation is involuntary — prompted by a lost key or a lumpy seat — and yields a core sample of the household's recent diet and habits. Cushionstrata is oldest at the bottom, where a 2019 receipt may surface. Reupholstering the sofa is its only full dig.
Etym. — cushion + strata — geology for upholstery, deposition without erosion.
Rel. — shoedelta
