The IKEA Workout

[jetpack_monkey_ljarchive]

Yes, the IKEA Workout: destroy your body semi-annually, lifting lovingly crafted Swedish-designed furniture pieces.

Ow.

In better news, I have enough video storage to last me at least another few months.

Hey... we did fit three 80inch boxes in my car... that's pretty impressive for a mid-sized sedan.

Damn straight.

IKEA is evil and must be stopped before its attempt at world domination succeeds. The only way we can stop it is to stage a mass raid on the manufacturers of Allen keys.

Yes, I agree and my poor muscles agree.

Heh. Another few MONTHS. You and your zany DVD habits. =) Most people are set for YEARS with one piece of furniture.

I bet Jack Valenti monitors your health. You get a cold and he sees dollar signs. =)

I bought three DVD towers (each with a capacity of 88), but two of them are meant to replace pre-existing storage that's not in the best condition. So... yeah. A few months.

We're finally getting an IKEA here. I feel like we've finally staggered into the late-20th century. @_@

Scary. Have fun. The furniture is (mostly) better than the stuff they sell at Target and whatnot, but some of the designs are seriously out of whack with anything remotely stylish.

Also, heavy. *body screams*

I want to feel like I'm ordering out of the fake catalogue from Fight Club.

"Does that come in puce?"

"Oh. Well, can I get the hand towels instead of the extra bathmat?"

"And a cottage cheese storage facility. In the periwinkle."

Alternately, I could go on a riff about the infamous Pottery Barn episode of Friends, but I might lose all my cool points if I had any to begin with.

Not with me. I wouldn't recognize it. So I'd hear the riff and go, "Huh. That's clever" or "Huh. That's kinda weird." Depending on how awesomely written said episode was.
