What's the big IKEA?!?!?!?

All of the women in my life are infatuated with IKEA. However, most of the men i know are not. Why is this...maybe because ALL of the furniture has to be put together. Women go into the store, see fantastic prices(which i can't deny they have), figure they have the "perfect" place in the home for whatever piece of furniture it is, and write down the bin number and they're off. I learned this very early. It started when my sis-in-law got a new clothes thing in Greenville and i came in at the end to help my dad-in-law finish it. You see the "instructions" are just pictures and some Swedish writing....how convenient for us Americans. Anyway, i thought i learned my lesson but sure enough women are very persuasive. A computer desk, chair, sofa, rolling chair, and other numerous items later apparently i still haven't learned my lesson. God speed to all men with women addicted to IKEA!!!

I love IKEA. Andy loves it for the budget, but definitely doesn't love the "do-it-yourself" stuff!
