YOU'VE probably seen the "boyfriend chair" in clothing stores for bored shopping companions.

Now IKEA has taken the concept one step further by creating a “crèche” for retail-weary men, complete with Xbox consoles, pinball machines, continuous televised sport and free hot dogs.

I love Ikea. It just as easy to build as lego, but you feel all manly and shit helping some helpless lass put together a chair together. And their little mascot instruction manual guy is cute.

Except the girl who drug you to god damn IKEA and now you have to entertain yourself and eat crappy hot dogs because you couldn't simply stand up for yourself like some punk bitch.

It's cool though. Enjoy your manland. It's the least we could offer since we have the other 3 acres of the store.

Maybe you'll remember that the next time you consider not sharing. And if you forget, the whoopin' you'll receive should help to remind you. Now go to your MANLAND.

I don't live "downtown," but I'm nowhere near the burbs. I do own a single family home, but we have a crazy small font/side yard. My backyard is a tiny patio with an alley/easement. Across the street from us is I-5 and a fire station. Most of our neighbors are apartments and condos. Bars and shops are just down the street.

We went to the Ikea in Kobe today. Bought a couple of PEOUEN or POïNGU or some crazy-assed named chairs. At their cafeteria, I had hard cider and meatballs with lingonberry sauce for lunch, with a creme brulee that was better than it deserved to be, so it's all good.

No MANLAND, no other LANDS were encountered.
