Is Ikea holding a grin?

[moppe]

Ikea would be perfect, really, if it weren't for that nagging feeling: That maybe -- just maybe -- the Swedes are making fun of us.

No! He figured it out :/

We need to make another beslut to protect our (stupid) names.

I were in Austraila for 4 years ago and i was pretty shocked to see the same names like we have here.. they even sold Kalles Kaviar... It felt almost like home

Well, that is true.
For name they use the old ones, very very old.
Not many people in Sweden are called "Herman" these days, but we still have true Swedish names. My, for one is Niclas.
But the "Beslut", somebody must had alot of fun for that one.
