Marsden Park, New South Wales is rejoicing this day as they look back on the year 2011. According to the Rouse Hill Times. The building of IKEA is the 19th top story of 2011 for this suburb of Sydney. This comes as good news to all of us who rely on IKEA to stop the growth of the evil empire. It is especially good news for the Aussies in this dangerous time.
Down under hipsterdom items like nonprescription eyeglasses, ironic sweaters, handlebar mustaches and greasy hair are trends that are growing in popularity at an alarming rate. Cut Copy have toured throughout Australia spreading the gospel of rehashed Depeche Mode soundscapes with a bit of monotoned depression. If you are in the vicinity of Gisborne, New Zealand they played a concert there yesterday (today still where I am in the world). Be on the look out for listlessly meandering teens and twenty-somethings in skinny jeans and flannels driving back to the garage apartments at their parent's suburban two-story, four bedroom houses. You'll notice them because on the way home they'll be trying to turn the Gisborne Botanical Gardens into the world's greatest lomography studio in the world.
But, I digress. Today bears good, optimistic news. Aussies and Kiwis need not fret over the hipsters because IKEA is valiantly work to curb the growing prowess of the evil empire and stymie hipsterdom where ever it rears its ugly head. Congratulations Marsden Park. Welcome to the revolution.
On another positive note, I was scanning the Internet for IKEA sightings when I came across a gem on Kijiji. A man was looking to unload some top notch IKEA swag near Barrie, Ontario. He posted that he was selling an IKEA couch for $75 Canadian dollars. He said that the economic, yet minimalist classic worthy of any good post-modern artist was located in Utopia. Of course it is. Of course it is.
