Tyler Durden: Do you know what a "duvet" is? Narrator: It's a comforter... Tyler Durden: It's a blanket. Just a blanket.
"Free yourself from bad Swedish furniture!"
I hate IKEA. I hate its mass-market, mass-produced, lowest-quality-possible materials furniture sold to the public at unheard-of low prices under the guise that, because you built it yourself, when the roller wheels on your dresser drawers fall out because the retaining screws weren't set in correctly, it's not really their fault that the wood was slightly warped, causing the rails to be misaligned, which resulted in a shoddy product that was never right from the get-go. I had a number of pint glasses in my room, so I brought them all down to the kitchen to wash them later, stacked one on top of the other. The bottom one happened to be an IKEA glass. It shattered a few minutes later. You know those wooden slotted things with the tilted base in which you store utility kitchen knives? The one my housemate bought at IKEA looks like the kind of thing I was making in Woodshop class when I was 13.
