Or The Deep.
RIP Timothy !
The couch has more personality than JD Vance himself.
I guess you could say that he’d be f***ing upward.
Who is JD?
Someone with a very unhealthy obsession with couches.
And dolphins, which is the aspect that makes this post clever.
As this didn’t really help, I asked an A.I. This is the answer:
Based on the initials and the clue about unhealthy behavior involving couches, you are likely referring to Jerry Dunn, a fictional character from the animated sitcom “Rick and Morty.”
Jerry Dunn
Known for: Neurotic and insecure behavior, often involving his couch. In the episode “Rixty Minutes,” Jerry becomes addicted to an interdimensional cable channel that shows him alternate realities where he is a famous actor. In one of these realities, he spills wine on his couch, which causes him to spiral into depression and ruin his career. Relevance to the clue: While not a real person, Jerry Dunn is a well-known character in popular culture and is associated with unhealthy behavior related to couches.
Is this correct or hilariously wrong? I am not into Rick and Morty, so I can’t tell…
No, it’s the wrong JD.
JD Vance is a nobody who is infamous for fucking couches and raping dolphins.
Oh yeah. He’s also an American politician running as American president candidate Donald Trump’s vice president.
Thanks, this seems to be it!
And yet again I am staring at the US election campaigns in open mouthed astonishment and bewilderment…

Super wrong considering that character’s last name is Smith, not Dunn. Op is referring to JD Vance.
But interestingly also not completely wrong, as there is a cocaine-snorting scene with Johnny Depp (so J.D.) in this episode.
And Depp also had a sexual thing involving the word “couch” with Amber Heard.
I’ve been learning sooo much today! 😆
JD Vance, Trump’s VP pick. The kindest you can say about him (and to be fair a lot of the Republicans) is that he is very, very weird.
Hey, I think I got that inside joke!
The word “Weird” is also some kind of running gag that is circulating, isn’t it? Read about it somewhere…
Not really a gag, more a term that Tim Walz (Harris’ VP pick) coined describing Republicans that has stuck like glue due in large part to it being absolutely true. The more you watch Trump’s inner circle, the weirder it gets. And the more people that realize how weird and dumb some of those people are, the more that some of the less rabid Trump supporters might actually have to start asking questions about who they support when they start being called weird by extension. And they’re not gonna like being called weird.
Thanks for the detailed explanation!
I read about it in German media and remember that it was stated there that Trump supporters used it first to describe some Democrats, but the Democrats just drew the UNO reverse card and have been way more successful with it.
Because Democrats are mostly pretty sane and generally normal. Most Republicans are pretty delusional, but some are just bonkers and very weird about their beliefs (not completely sure, but I think a somewhat apt analogy might be to the AfD party in Germany, as several of the same talking points are shared between both).
Hilariously wrong on every count, because Jerry’s last name in Rick and Morty is Smith.
There are two well known people named Jerry Dunn, but ones a basketball player and the others a runner.
Also I wouldn’t say Jerry is obsessed with or otherwise has unhealthy relationships with couches, the wine spill is incidental to his spiraling.
I think that the connection which made the AI mention this episode is Johnny Depp, He appears in this episode, has the correct initials and together with Amber Heard had a sexual thing involving the word “couch”.
LLMs are crazy kinds of associative machines which often work in really unpredictable ways…
This is a particularly poor inquiry as “JD” is likely a single token that spans enormous locations in the training corpora.
It isn’t an error on the part of the LLM. It is an error in understanding the tool, how it works, and the lack of specificity of the question.
If one were to call the prompt with the logits visible. It would clearly show the LLM had no clue what was being queried. The problem is that the tools shown to the public are massively oversimplified for generalization. Even the most advanced libraries and programs available to the public right now are all based on simplified basic example code implementations. If you go read the Transformers library’s introduction page, it clearly lays out that the tool is in no way a comprehensive or complete implementation, and yet that is the central library all tools in the public space are built off of.
So friend, I’d counter that the tool is not crazy or unpredictable. It is extremely complex and in simplified form, it can be difficult to understand what has gone wrong. If the public was handed the true complexity, only the most advanced devs would ever figure it out in the first place.
I thought it was a Scrubs joke
That’s a sweet couch, I wish it was real.
