Why would anyone want to eat in Ikea?
Come to think of it, why would anyone want to go into Ikea at all?
furniture shopping, probably
Think outside the box mate. My point is that it's a crap chain with stores full of tack being bought by a high proportion of knuckledraggers (at least it was on the solitary occasion when I ventured inside one).
Remember that time when their store in Edmonton, London advertised sofas for £49? 6,000 people turned up and stampeded inside the store. There were people crushed and serious fistfights when these Neanderthals started scrambling for the inadequate number of sofas the store actually had. One woman was threatened with a mallet and another who actually managed to get hold of one of these sofas had it mugged off her in the checkout queue.
The security guards did a runner. Then the police turned up followed by 9 ambulances to treat all the casualties. The police kicked everyone out and forced the store to close only 40 minutes into the continuous 24 hours it planned to stay open.
Like I said...
