Hopefully you're familiar with IKEA, the cavernous
Swedish furniture store?? While spending the better part of two hours in there the other day I noticed that a lot of the Swedish names for their furniture and stuff would make great nicknames for your unit. Stuff like the Schlong lamp, Shmedvik chair, etc.? I mean, names like Peter, Mr. Happy, One-Eyed Willy, the little Spelunker, etc. get old after a while, right?? So I jumped on-line for a look at their catalog, and wouldn't you know it's a virtual treasure trove of great nicknames for your Johnson.? Here are just a few REAL names from the IKEA catalog note: typing restrictions kept me from using the little two-dots, flying "v"s and other additional Swedish accent marks, but you'll get the idea. Happy shopping... NAME (what it is) When the name applies AGEN (chair) name it this if you’re on the Viagra AKTION (spice mill) name it this if you get girls by saying you’re a director. ALVINE (curtain) name it this, and you can call your balls “the chipmunks” ANTONIUS (storage) macho as hell Roman name BAGN (bed tray) if you always use a condom BAREN (cabinet) if you shave it BJARNUM JARPEN (shelf) if you want to give it a Star Wars-ish name BLANKEN (soap dish) if you’ve had a vasectomy BOLSNAS (basket) named after the other stuff down there. BONA (vase) good name if it’s always stiff BUMERANG (hanger) if it’s bent BYGGA (construction set) if you’ve had it enlarged DRAG (handle) if your penis will be a “surprise” to someone. DRAGON (fork) Actually Short for “Peter B. Dragon” bundle of sticksELBO (sofa) If you’re ghey, and it’s bent FLYGEL (lamp) if it shoots far FUNKIS (magazine rack) if it smells FORMA (bowl) if you can bend it into shapes GRIP (handle) if you’ve always got your hand on it HOPEN (table) if you keep a condom in your wallet INNER (cushion) where it wishes it can be JERKER ( drawer) see GRIP JABBA (hanger) If you like Star Wars names, though not recommended KNUFF (file cabinet) if it’s just over five inches MANE (chair) if it’s hairy POKAL (glass) if you’d do anyone PROMPT (muffin tin) if it comes on time PLUGG (clock) what better name for something designed to fill a hole? RAMBERG (wardrobe) Good name for it if you’re German RIBBA (frame) if it will reach all the way up to her lungs SCHLAGER (lamp) Perfect Swedish name for your wood. Say it out loud. See? SIGFRID (bracket) great name if you have just one testicle, named Roy. STORM (lamp) if it comes unexpectedly SULTAN (bed) if you keep a turban on it UTANG (lamp) with this name, you can use an awesome slogan “Utang wants some p**ntang” VORK (rug) sounds like a Swedish Superhero. Plus, you can say, “Vork wants to pork” WILMA (curtain) only a good name when coupled with the surname Cockfit |
Was just in that one in Burbank. Good to see they are headed to KC. I need furniture out there.

First off, it's extremely inexpensive but well made. Most of the designs are mdf with a veneer but extremely stylish and Euro. Very sleek, very cool. The biggest "drag" about Ikea is that you have to build it yourself. Everything is super heavy, so carrying it up stairs is a bitch. Also, they provide "Picture" diagrams instead of "instructions", so once you've successfully assembled an item, you know how to assemble it in the future. But that's not all: They have super cheap but well made accessories for bathrooms, kitchens, rugs, dishes - basically everything you would need for your home or apartment. And the designs are so cool that even though you're not spending a lot of money, it looks GREAT. I have so many Ikea items in my house that I couldn't even begin to count, from bedframes, dressers, chests, etc. and they look great and perform well. And their kitchen cabinets and designs are top notch and far less than what you'd get at Home Depot or Lowe's. |
