Default OT, but since we brought up Ikea...

Nice to know I am not the only one who thinks Ikea furniture is the devil's bargain! That said, during COVID, their quality and customer service is making Walmart look good.

I have had a friend who's been going through hell trying to get one of their lighted display cases for his miniatures. Finally gets one, has it delivered. He's putting it together...The glass shelf explodes in his wife's hand. Yes, explodes.

I won't even talk about what we went through trying to find all the parts for our new dressers and desk units around here. At one point, there was serious discussion between the wife and I of taking a road trip to Manhattan...Kansas to get the requisite parts.

So, in a bit of T2K related thoughts? Just how well would Ikea handle the conventional phase of the Twilight War. I suspect no better than they are now.
