LOL, I was not correct. I was so excited thinking I had the right answer that I didn't even count the letters in my submitted solution...

Thanks @Abide for the puzzle!

Waiting confirmation, but I believe I'm off the couch. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Off the couch and confirmed. It was fun.

Ah, that always true Columbo-esque refrain, "Oh, just one more thing."

Looks like I’m in good company here on this couch. I definitely see the first step. Thought I had a good idea what to google next, but it doesn’t seem to lead anywhere.

Also have a guess, but haven’t managed to backsolve into that either.

I've submitted, but will refrain from declaring myself off the couch just yet as this, too, seems like a 100%-er. I did find a rather compelling rabbit hole, though.

Update: confirmed off the couch, though I did leave an imprint

I'm sooooo on the couch, despite nudges. My a$$ may be permanently part of the cushion at this point - LOL.

Great puzzle. Submitted. Confidence high.

In test solving this one, I did not have to Google anything, but only because I had been working on a similarly themed puzzle of my own as a possible MMM. Believe me, Peter's is much better.

@dudeski , I don't see your submission. Please try again.

Thanks @Abide for the puzzle!

If it makes you feel any better, I did the same thing I believe you did when I test solved it...

I felt so bad for you. But yeah, were you ever ready for this one. Talk about in your wheelhouse!

OTC Awaiting confirmation. Fun Puzzle
Update: Confirmed

Got it! Off the couch is the proper saying? Thanks Abide! Got this one without nudges - practice, practice, practice (no AND there ).

Really? Then apparently either my assumptions about this puzzle are wrong or my assumptions about @Bird Lives wheelhouses are wrong. I wonder which.

The world in question is not really one I spend any time in, but it seemed like good material for a meta. I had to Google much of the relevant information. Not really my wheelhouse, more like a wheel AirBnb -- temporary housing for my wheel.
