I think you might have a shitty family, more than anything else.

And this is exactly why Beyonce took that picture with her twins and put it out there for free. So that no one would climb her fence to be the first to sell them to the tabloids.

To be fair, some parents see releasing photos as harm reduction, since there’s less incentive to hound their kids for photos if there’s legal ones available. I can see that point of view.

Hell, for 40-somethings it’s a godsend. We furnished our in-home business with fantastic IKEA desks, bookshelves, and filing cabinets. Excellent quality. Still holding up, 15 years later.

$799 for an English rolled arm sofa at IKEA. RH and PB want $2400+ for a similar style.

I love ikea. It’s fun to walk around in, the furniture is fine, the food is decent, and building that shit is like solving puzzles. My mom invited me over last week just to put together two wardrobes for her. It was great.

Because it’s not just a “furniture store”, for a lot of people. It is a “finally!” moment-they finally have access to better quality items at very affordable prices. It’s not about it just being another store, it’s about access.

You are not IKEA’s target market.

Simple as that.

Yeah, there’s this huge gap in furniture buying—either you buy some particle-board garbage from Walmart that falls apart if you look at it wrong, or you spend so much money at a big-box furniture store that you have to get the purchase financed like you’re buying a used car. IKEA straddles that gap, and they’re one of…

You’re right that it’s similar to Crate & Barrel stylistically, but it’s also substantially cheaper, which is why it’s extremely popular for young people starting out with their first few apartments. For instance:

Backstreet Boys in 2001 was massively more popular and successful than 98 Degrees. (I’m not talking now, ffs.)

I think it varies by troop since the troop leader chooses the activities. I know one of the reasons I ended up dropping out of GS was that they always had activities I couldn’t participate in with my disability like white water rafting or biking. I liked when they went hiking though.

There are indeed Pinewood Derbies open to Girl Scouts. ;-)

ABOUT TIME!!!! I’ve been so disappointed that my duaghters’ essentially have had one STEM badge available in each age bracket, when in my generation there were several. And I like the new camping badges; definitely an improvement.

John McCain is not a good person. The fact that he spent time in a POW camp doesn’t do anything to change that (no disrespect to POWs, my grandfather was one and I am in the military now myself). Just like how you are be a terrible person and be sick or be a victim of a crime, you can have been a POW and still not be…

You’re missing the obvious Kinja Turtles joke…

 Kudos for this, and I hope it’s a step towards maybe not sucking so bad as a culture.

Just imagine being violently raped and then taken to a Catholic hospital where after the rape kit is administered you’re told they can’t administer preventative contraception. Women will never be considered autonomous or adults in this society. 

Stig tries so hard to be liked by women on the internet. It’s all disengenious pandering. Dude is fucking pathetic.

It’s true! Before the surgery his Kinja name was just “Seth”!
