cushionstrata

/ˈkʊʃənˌstrɑːtə/nounVerified New

Culture & Language

The 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
