IKEA! Why Hast Thou Forsaken Us?

Dear IKEA,
You bastard! String us along. Tell us how you know we'd make a good market for your crappy furniture stores. Say how flattered you are when we express our love for you on Facebook. And then, what? Shit all over us by announcing you've chosen Kansas City over us!?

Well, well, well. The hell with you. We don't want your stinkin' store. We've got our own furniture retailers. Like Rothman's, and Weekend's Only and Carol House. Yeah, that's right. We like nice things! So take your Chinese-made "Swedish" bookshelves, your trendy bedroom sets, those OMG-they're-so-fabulous (shut up, no!) kitchen accessories and stick them up your ass!

'Cause you know what? We are finished. Put that in your meatballs, and choke on it.

Okay? Call us sometime.

This columnist's article is rude, crude, offensive, boring using:

"bastard, crappy, shit, hell, stinkin', shut up, stick them up your ass". 

George Carlin and Robin Williams used most of these words in a way that is funny and clever.  It  takes more polish to shine up those words to be presentable.

They expect 6 states to frequent the Merriam,KS store.

We were never, ever going to get an Ikea. That's why Ikea says our changes are just as good to get a store now as they were before they announced K.C.

We're too close to an existing market in Chicago. KC makes sense, unfortunately.

Ikea just likes St. Louis as a friend thought St. Louis only wanted someone to go out drinking with them anyways

I'm not upset. Off with you, Ikea. May your product instructions ruin marriages elsewhere.

@RiverfrontTimes I see no need for a store that sells pressed cardboard (overpriced)
