Ok I did it, I went with the wife to IKEA - on holiday- in France.
learnings for you men out there:
1. IKEA is hell for the male species, also abroad
2. the female in general seems to be able to find sonething in the small items area of IKEA, even when some 1000 km away from home.
3. IKEA must have some mikrowaves that influence the female brain, turning it into shopping ( not to be mistaken with buying) mode.
Share your learnings!

You forgot about IKEA being a place where time ceases to exist as it does in the rest of the world. It warps in strange ways.

Me: "our car is too small for that"
Her:"No it is not, we can lower the backseats"
Me:"Look, that thing is 2m long, we will have to leave the trunk open, and even then...."
Her:"I can sit in the backseat so the co-driver place can be used. It will fit! It has to! Why dont you trust me once?"
Me:"No..look...it....ahh...whatever'
(after paying and carrying to the car, 45min of trying every fecking angle for the package to get it into the car, and 'many good' advices of course.)
Her: "oh it does not seem to fit.. sorry! Can you carry it back to the counter so we can send it by the service?"
Me: "surrrrre..."

Novelty value I assure you, it gets mindbogglingly boring after a few days.
I spent 3 summers assembling stuff for the exhibitions at my local store.
Imagine that, a swede that worked at IKEA =p

IKEA is like casinos but with out the fun, they are both designed to make you spend much more time and money then you intended

It will fit!
that's what she said!
I'm trying hard to maintain my title as
the last man that never went to IKEA in Israel.
friends report that guys got nothing to do there but eat the hot dogs,
their part begin at home, building the sofa or whatever.
