Only the idiot road rage driver loses control of his own car and ends up crashing into a bystander's car, almost killing an innocent guy. Idiot.

Ikea Is Turning Its Very First Store Into a Museum
May 12, 9:40PM
In addition to the obvious—meatballs, for most of us—there are many joys inherent in an afternoon pilgrimage to an Ikea showroom, not least of which is sitting on, reclining over, picking up, and/or putting down every damn thing you wander past in the cheery furniture labyrinth.
