Brilliant! I especially like Tjardiis. The Tardis IS just a wibbly-woblly and a few wooden pegs, really.

Tjardiis’ infinite number of wooden pegs: FTW!!!

These are so funny! And I’m gonna reveal the nerdy side of me–I believe the Star Wars one calls for zero Jar Jar Binks…couldn’t agree more.

There’s no ü in Swedish – å ä ö.

IKEA names are not all Swedish – they come from all over the world.

Sad, humourless bastard…

No. They are all Swedish.

According to Wikipedia, “IKEA products are identified by single word names. Most of the names are Swedish in origin. Although there are some notable exceptions, most product names are based on a special naming system developed by IKEA.” So, the majority of them are Swedish.

I’ve spoken to IKEA. The names are Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, and Scandinavian derived from places, people, nature and even slang.

TJADIIS does not get assembled with an offset Allen wrench, it gets assembled with an offset sonic screwdriver!

Brilliant! You should print them on shirts, I’m sure they’ll sell like crazy!
The “Jurassic Park” manual is my favorite, very clever!

Wish there were T-shirts with these images on them . . .
Great work!!

Like you said, according to wikipedia.

Absolutely fantastic. Completely support the t-shirt idea… they’ll sell like IKEA!
