Hmm, should have had “eating brains” too. You know how zombies love IKEA. (if you know where I got that, I will bow to your awesomness)

I can’t relate at all. I’ve never had any problems… RTFM, people.

Oh, you underestimate the amount of times you say “screw,” “push harder,” and “why is this taking so long.”

it’s so true!!! i got a big rolling chair and i definitely spent 25% of the time putting it together saying “that’s what she said.” honestly.

The only problem i had with IKEA stuff was getting it into the car. But putting it together never was a big deal. Even my friends 50 year old mother knows how to do it..

I have put so many Ikea things together, I have it down. But that’s because I don’t let my husband do it anymore. In which case, threatening to file for divorce should be one of the pieces of the pie.

that’s what she said.

Kinda funny… As someone who helps load flat packs into cars, I’m surprised there isn’t a 5th category:
“Trying to unload the bloody thing.”

Ok, that’s not even remotely close to Ikea

Going to IKEA her is Germany is fun because all the instructions are written in German. It’s a damn good thing I can look at a picture and know exactly what is going on.

“It doesn’t fit – It wont go in ”
“that’s what she said”

‘Do you wont this long one?”
“that’s what she said”

you get it?

I have never had a problem with anything from IKEA…. so I wonder, is the IKEA in my part of the world better than elsewhere?

I don’t get it.

They also left out “drinking heavily while attempting to assemble furniture.”

This chart is true, and is one of the reasons I fear the day I move into my apartment – first apartment, all new furniture, all from IKEA. Boxes are still unopened, waiting for the day.

God help us all.

It’s all in your head Jefoid. LOL Yeah, I know what you mean. I wish there was a way to edit your comments.

By: Dan

Is the “that’s what she said” referencing to instructions like “insert peg G into slot F?” or do you just use that in 40% of your daily language?

There’s no IKEA where I live.

The closest thing we have is Target.

I actually would like to add the “Time spend going back to IKEA, because you realized too late they only put 2 out of 4 table legs in a table-leg-carton.”

Oh, I beg to differ, it just makes you(me) crazy.

Don’t you hate that second when you re-read your own post and realized you screwed it up? Feels like everyone in the room is looking at you. And there isn’t even a room. Maybe it’s just me.

Making that’s what she said jokes while putting IKEA furniture together. I get it ’cause I’ve done it. Awesome. Few things lend itself so well to so many.

Really you can’t do “That’s what she said” jokes if you are the only person there.

The “cursing” part should be at least 65%, and they forgot to include “modifying the pieces because they don’t fit together properly”, “returning the whole damn thing because parts are missing”, and finally “smashing it out of frustration”.

“furtniture” is what I had when I was a bachelor. I had one of those 70′s plaid couches and a bed and that was my only actual furniture. Everything else was ‘furtniture’: the collection of tray tables as a kitchen table, plastic kitchen “chairs”, the wood planks on old books cofee table/computer desk, shadeless lamp lighting, art easel/”lounge chair”, and window treatments, wait, no, I didn’t have any of those…

I don’t did????? WTF?
I meant to say, I don’t either.

“Making that’s what she said jokes” should be at least 80% of the time.
Come on.

I never did understand the whole IKEA thing….

Oh hell yes! Sooo true!

Hahaha, and I thought I was the only one immature enough to keep making “that’s what she said” jokes – HA!
