+Hi Hello. Sorry I haven't posted in the past couple days, been super busy. Step Two: blog. Everyone has heard of, bought from, seen, or experienced the corporate genius that is Ikea. Simple shit furniture made trendy and popular. If you've been there you'll know how many things you don't need but strangely end up buying. For example, tea candles, a box of 100 sells for approximately five bucks. Now if you step back and look at the scenario, who really needs 100 tea candles? Is anyone ever going to need tea candles in a life death situation? No, but that five dollar price tag makes, "no" such an impossible answer. Reading the items is worse. How are you supposed to remember what that coffee table is called when it has more vowels than consonants. That's why they give you paper and golf pencils; so you can write it down. On top of all that confusion, you can't get out once your in. Ikea is built much like a prison, with thousands of corridors and seemingly no exit. The only reason the food court is located inside the store is so you never have to leave! Well, I guess that's what North Americans love since we've made the CEO of Ikea the richest man on the world, literally. That's just the way I see it. Now back to those terrible instructions on how to put their sofa together.
