Better than FYRKANTIG Close
> IKEA asked its Facebook fans to vote on a name for the new road
Presumably a close second was: How the hell do I get out of here? Avenue
which narrowly beat: Dam' I forgot the handles Way
We're delighted to report that the Valladolid tentacle of flatpack world superpower IKEA does indeed lie on "I've Got A Screw Loose Street", and we've got the photos to prove it. Back in 2011, as construction of the 34,700m2 particle board megarepository was under way on virgin ground in Arroyo de la Encomienda, on the …
Wait until you have to move house, and disassemble these wonderful products, then you try to re-assemble you either become an Ikea re-engineer expert (drill and small screws seem to work best) or burn the shit on the spot.
btw, the nice hex head wrench is always included too. After the missus came home with 3 new Ikea items for the boy, I now have 6! Maybe they should leave them out of the box, and have a small bin at check out and be encouraged to grab one if it’s your first visit.
drink up, it’s Friday!
better to use a cheap cordless drill with a hex bit, saves your index finger bruises (on bigger builds). Cheap drills wont strip the heads either (or I suppose an expensive one with proper torque controls, my £6 BandQ one does the job nicely, it hasn't the power to overtorque)
I had a look at that link and must admit it took some time to grasp it. But I wonder how many understand this "by" which is the Norse word for willage, Rugby for instance and hundreds in Northern countries, Visby and so forth and why not by-election, willage election a remainder of how old democracy is in the norh. One of these silly jokes I remember is the politician who said - I am thirty and my wife is thirtytwo. And if that does not sound like I am dirty and my wife is dirty too then you have no imagination.
In Montreal (while I was living there) the city council forced a Japanese restaurant to change names, after a neighbourhood complaint from self-entitled parents. The name of the restaurant was that of a Japanese style (well, a karate style, as much as I loathe karate; bloody peasants trying to defend themselves from the weaponised nobility*).
That name: Fukyu.

On the outskirts of Edinburgh, we have an Ikea and Costco next to each other. The road is call "Costkea Way". I don't know if they'll bother renaming the road if either of them leave/rebrand...
It's actually (or it was - they talk about hard drives now) Seagate's preferred spelling. My father (who used to be a purchaser for a now-defunct UK computer manufacturer) has a Seagate T-shirt with a watercolour-esque print of a drive, titled "The Art of the Disc Drive" on its back.
Did our intrepid Ikeanauts leave with £73-worth of tut along the lines of batteries, small cuddly mice, toilet brushes, suction cups, obscure foam plastic things that might be for stopping fingers getting caught in drawers but you're not really sure how they fitted on, bargain fire extinguishers etc.
