It was hipster at one point to like Couture. It's now to the point where it's hipster to not like Couture due to his popularity. Will you be taking that step, Jux?

Oh, I took that step before it was cool.

Seriously, Couture's always been one of my least favorite Sharks (minus the goons, grinders, etc). I hate that I have to root for him to root for Patty.
