      That’s OK, you gave us ABBA and horrendous cuisine, so it’s cool.

      Just kidding, I love IKEA food.

      Just kidding again, I know IKEA is Dutch!

        i have consultant colleagues who have worked for ikea. shit’s everywhere.

        a chart of the company structure of the ikea group. it contains 23 companies.

        fun fact, the subsidiary they worked for is not listed.

      Please don’t apologize.

      There’s a family that lives a block away from me that throws backyard parties a lot. We can tell when it’s a kids’ party because they play Crazy Frog for 15 minutes to get things going. It’s hilarious to us.

        it only got big in the rest of the world after we’d been tortured to death by it here since 1997 so i don’t know if i really see it that way. i mean, it is 29 years old at this point. i’ve not been able to escape the little fucker for over three fourths of my life.

          There is a Finnish Smurfs album with an Axel F cover (labelled as a Crazy Frog cover of course) and if you can tune out the vocals, it’s pretty banging.
