Sweden rejects the Euro! Yeah!

When I was there a couple of weeks ago, everyone was walking around with "Ja!" tee shirts and posters and buttons and fliers and stickers and billboards, and there was obviously a lot of money being put into the pro-Euro campaign. I walked by more than one "Ja!" rally. And I saw one tiny little anti-Euro sticker on a public phone. So I thought, "Well, hell, with all that advertising, they'll be switching within the month."

So this is great. Fuck you, Big Advertising! Sweden's keeping their kronor!

They can also keep their fucking moon-lamp that I bought at the Ikea (in Sweden) that doesn't accept the lightbulbs that I bought at the Ikea (in Jersey) the other day. Why the hell wouldn't an Ikea lamp accept an Ikea lightbulb? I'm going to throw it out and buy an American one at the American Ikea. Fucking Swedish lightbulbs.
