When I look at that a story forms in my mind...<p>-=-=-=-<p>[Doug's Bedroom]<p>Doug, Ikea Product Development: "Ugh... What time is it? Oh, God 4:45am? I have to get ready for work in an hour. Why did I drink so much last night? It's Steve's fault. "What's one more round of shots gonna hurt" he says. OW! OW! OW! I definitely need some aspir--OH SHIT! I'm supposed to present new product ideas at 9am. Come on Doug! Think quick!"<p>...<p>[Product Development Meeting, 9:45am]<p>Generic Middle-Management Boss-Guy: "Hmm... an internets-inspired shelving unit. Sounds good. Let's get our tech guys on it."<p>Doug [Inner-monologue]: "Heh, heh, heh. You've done it again, Dougy-boy. Sly like a fox--NO! Sly like a Doug!"<p>-=-=-=-<p>(I know it's a joke product, but sometimes you can't contain your imagination. And sometimes you just aren't getting enough sleep.)
