Swatch eh?

@ReaderRagfihs, @ThanosReXXX: I'll start checking those out tomorrow. Thanks! The webcam roulette series sounfi pretty entertaining. XD

AVGN isn't really my cup of tea, but I do admit that I enjoyed his video related to a fake Big Rigs: Over The Road Racing ad. My brother was gifted that game, and it's as enjoyably bad as everyone says it is.

@NEStalgia spot on. All Ikea

@1UP_MARIO Ha! And here I was, about to defend you, regarding @NEStalgia slamming your aesthetically pleasing game room setup and calling it standard IKEA fare....

Goes to show you that I don't know Jack sh** about IKEA...

@ThanosReXXX it is standard but you won’t find any cheaper than Ikea. It gets the job done 😉

@ThanosReXXX LOL!

You don't know sh** about IKEA until you've tried to build it. They can shove their free meatballs.

@NEStalgia that’s not fair. They’re a lot easier to build than Labo

@1UP_MARIO Well, building the Space Shuttle is a lot easier to build than Labo. Swedish is slightly easier to read than 日本語。Slightly. But IKEA manuals make it a lot closer than it ought to be. In fact the kanji usually make more sense than whatever those caveman pictographs are supposed to represent.

My closest translation is usually "Grab the screwdriver, twirl it in the air, then stab your foot." Somehow the chair never ends up looking stable as a result.

@Anti-Matter ive built a whole loft bed with a desk underneath it with wardrobe and that took me 2 hours. @NEStalgia the thing is it’s budget furniture and after a while you don’t even need the instructions. If you do, your doing it wrong. There has been times I’ve followed the instruction with the picture s and it was all backwards in forwards out. 😉

@NEStalgia Pah! Swedish isn't complicated at all. The only Scandinavian language that's actually very difficult, is Finnish, because the words just don't make any sense, and are influenced by and combined from SO many other influences, that it isn't even funny anymore.

I speak Danish, and Swedish is alike in many ways. People coming from the two countries can also largely understand each other, there's just some different words, pronunciation and intonation, but other than that, quite similar. I'd say it's similar to the difference between Spanish and Portuguese, or Dutch and Belgian or German.

We do have IKEA jokes (or rather: jabs at IKEA) over here. Such as that, even when following the building schedule/manual, you still might end up having a screw or two left after you've finished building the piece of furniture, always making you doubt if you've done it correctly...

Or, that if you order from IKEA via the internet, chances are you're brand new kitchen will be missing a cabinet door, and the waiting period for it to finally be sent to you, will be at least 3 weeks.

And there's several more. Most of them actually happened as well, and are now a part of the collective memory...

@NEStalgia I wonder how many US residents actually believe that this puppet, uh... excuse me: Muppet,
was ACTUALLY speaking Swedish, instead of just nondescript gibberish...

@Delibheel The name is, what he "speaks" isn't...

@ThanosReXXX Where and when did you learn how to speak Danish? You don't see that very often. It's a funny language; if you read it out loud it's pretty easy to understand, but it looks completely gibberish.

From what I read it's actually mixing swedish words, swidsh-ish words, and english words. So yeah. He kinda is... Sometimes, hah.

Anyway, I misread your other comment. I thought you were saying he was speaking swedish and people mistook it for gibberish.

I've never actually heard him talk... As far as I remember...

@ThanosReXXX, @ReaderRagfihs: You'll be happy to know that I went ahead and binged all four of those webcam roulette Seaman videos before heading to bed. Definitely worth the watch! X3

...Though I do wonder what the game's initial rating was back then with some of the responses.
