I think I was driving behind a group of Ikea campers last night. They stopped their car in the middle of the road to talk to a cop, asking directions, despite the fact there was a big muthaflippin' green sign right in front of their silly little faces telling them to drive straight past the projects. "The PROJECTS!?!?!?" Yes, straight past the projects says the cop. Ugh, all I wanted to do was go home and eat dinner.
By the way, who fills a compact car to capacity with people, and THEN goes to Ikea? How are you gonna manage to get that free sofa home Einstein? -

That said, I am loathe to say, I need a couple of those wardrobey things from there. And I like their Blueberry pie, it's called Blabarspaj. Tee hee.
