Sure hope I’m right about this one! If so, it’s a lovely strategy. Awaiting confirmation.
Off the sofa!

I do believe I'm off the couch, pending confirmation.
Excellent meta - @Abide, you're a magician. Maybe even a genie.
Thanks for the puzzle!

Off the couch, I think. Awaiting confirmation with a smile on my face. An inspired puzzle, I just didn't know what the inspiration was till I followed 60A.

Off the couch!

With a bit of a nudge.

Now that’s … meta!

Very amusing!
