This was really hard for me to understand, so I'll post my summary in hopes that it helps someone else:

CityPockets is a website that helps you organize your coupons and vouchers. You import your coupons and CityPockets will plot the deals on a map and display their expiration date. This should make you more efficient with your coupons.

Josh Stevens is "The Groupawn", a Groupon customer trying to live off of Groupons for an entire year. What this means is that he has no cash, but a year's supply of vouchers from Groupon, provided to him for free as a sort of publicity stunt.

Josh Stevens broke the CityPockets website by trying to import thousands of Groupon vouchers onto CityPockets, a site whose average load is nine vouchers per user.
