[jethrose]

Svédország leszállt. Mr. Ingvar Kamprad´s tervének világuralomra.

Sweden is not a social demoracy!

That is a political ideology and not a form of government...

Swedens form of government is constitutional monarchy. And four out of seven parties in the riksdag are not leftist at all (or so they claim)...

[miniskirt04]

真搞不懂，你们为什么总是喜欢把在中国发生的事情高度政治化？

现在都什么年代了，冷战不是早结束了吗，还这主义那主义的呢，那­些过了时的主义们，早该象冻鼻涕似的一把甩掉了~

I have to go to IKEA when I'm in Beijing! It looks likte the ones in Stockholm. And I have to taste the food, to see if it's really the same.

But you shouldn't have fries to meatballs, you should have ordinary potatoes or mashed potatoes. :)

Er...no. Not quite. o.o

Although it is ironic that communism + socialism = $

[mieroth]

XD Very cool though! I think IKEA is great. The IKEA in Singapore was extremely popular too. And people loved the cafeteria. o.O Now, the food isn't bad, but it's very much like school-food when it comes to quality. Home-made meatballs are so much better than the supermarket stuff. &hearts I was, however, very placed that I could still buy Kalle's kaviar when living in Indonesia. XD Hehe.
