1. We don't have IKEA around here yet!
:-(

They are fighting to put one in in a very densely populated area, which is not flying well with the residents..

2. None, IKEA sucks.
Brad Pitt was right in Fight Club, Ikea-Boy.

:evilgrin:

Did you find a nice table that defined you as a person?

7. BRA
I forget what it is (some kind for furniture), but it comes shipped flat, so IKEA put out a postcard to the effect of a BRA that's flat as an ironing board, or something like that.

8. I live in the South.
Most people here think Ikea is a country in Asia. And the ones who don't would be more likely to put a rainbow sticker on their pickup truck than buy anything there.

10. BILLY Bookcases
I don't know why. It doesn't have the double entendre thing going for it and it's not a "weird-cool" name like GROGGY. I just always laugh when I see the BILLY bookcases. I guess it's like this;

Hey you wanna go up to my place for a drink?
Sure, I've had a nice time so far.
Hey nice bookcases, where'd ya get 'em?
You mean Billy? Yeah they're great!
Billy? You NAME your furniture?
No. It came with that name, I didn't name it myself.
It CAME with a name? Where's my coat? I suppose your coatrack is SUSAN?
etc etc

Well, it's funny to me.
