The time it was not very considerate of gay people. 10. The time it appeared to have been hunting Elmos and Cookie Monsters. 11. The time it told you to get into the DEBT line, which is pretty much more accurate than saying "debit." Blake Neiman @13lake #ikeafail Sun Sep 21 00:30:22 UTC+0000 2014 Reply Retweet Favorite 12. When its titles in one language translated into something pretty weird in another.

Aside from the dumb sexual innuendo here, perhaps Ikea also needs to be going back to school. To lern how too speell. 18. When they thought "Fartyg" was a name people would take serious. 19. When they sold these scissors ... which you cannot operate without another pair of scissors.

When it sold a shower curtain that only made you think of lady parts. 21. And when it sold these bear-who-just-ate-grandma stuffed animals.
