Morning music on KFOG was less than wonderful, so I only got to hear a bit of the discussion on IKEA rants or tips.

One said "IKEA is Swedish for 'Don't come on Saturday.'" Another said that the "don't follow the arrows" advice was the worst, as you quickly begin to feel like a rat trapped in a maze you can't find your way out of. And yet another advised doing some meditation to enter the Zen state before heading into the madhouse.

The last giggle I had before getting out of my car, however, was when a man called in and said that you really should eat before you go. Otherwise, it's like going into an adult video/bookstore while horny - you never know what you're going to come out with.

UPDATE: the new IKEA opened in East Palo Alto on Wednesday, and apparently the traffic was sooo bad (how bad was it?), that it made the Amber Alert signs.
