Electricity and furniture are home necessities. We all huddle around waiting for the power to come back on, I guess one would huddle around waiting for the furniture to come back if it went out and came back like power does. Cornered can be a stretch at times
” Cornered can be a stretch at times”

But, yes, that is it.

“Pardon my Planet” generally has good art, but the joke always feels like it’s something the guy came up with at the very last second.
“Cornered” is “Pardon my Planet” minus the good art. I mean, look at that one sitting guy’s head.
I agree with John. It’s like an alternate universe in which furniture behaves like utilities services.
We depend on electricity so much, and when it goes out we realize we’ve been taking it for granted.
We depend on furniture so much, and when it disappears we realize we’ve been taking it for granted.
The joke, I think, is: How can furniture possibly “go out”?
(What’s confusing is: Why does the furniture go out with the electricity? Were they robbed, or does that have nothing to do with it?)

I had some pretty inexplicable dates in my courting days myself, so I’ve learned not to judge the choices of others. Love seats, in particular, are hopeless romantics, and chairs get tired of just sitting around the house. (Besides, their dates probably claimed they were real Live Wires.)
