IKEA Daleks

IKEA Daleks is a fan-given term to the "improved" designs of the Dalek villains from the long-running British sci-fi TV show Doctor Who. Daleks are the arch-nemesis of The Doctor and his alien Time Lord race. In S5E3 the IKEA Daleks were introduced. They looked the same as the original Daleks but with colourful Dalekanium (alien metal).

They look like the result of Daleks procreating with Power Rangers.

David: You know, Chris, whenever I see one of those new colourful Daleks I imagine M&Ms shooting out of their appendages.
Chris: Haha, you mean those IKEA Daleks? They look like toys, don't they?
David: Yeah! They look like they're made from plastic instead of Dalekanium.

Tokugawa Ieyasu

One of the most significant figures in Japanese history, Ieyasu was a warrior, statesman and founder of the Tokugawa dynasty of shoguns. Tokugawa Ieyasu was born Matsudaira Takechiyo in 1542, son of the lord of the province of Mikawa. At the time of his birth, Japan was convulsed by civil war, with violent feuds between territorial lords which had lasted for nearly a century. When he was four Ieyasu was sent as a hostage to secure an alliance between his clan and the neighbouring Imagawa clan. He was raised at their court and given the education suitable for a nobleman. In 1567 Ieyasu, whose father's death had left him as leader of the Matsudaira, allied with Oda Nobunaga, a powerful neighbour. It was at this time that he changed his name from Matsudaira to Tokugawa, which was the name of the area from which his family originated. He also changed his personal name to Ieyasu, so he was now known as Tokugawa Ieyasu. Ieyasu spent the next decade-and-a-half campaigning with Nobunaga while expanding his own influence and wealth. He had by now gained a considerable military reputation.

When Nobunaga was assassinated in 1582, Tokugawa Ieyasu acquired more territory, and allied with Nobunaga's successor, Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Hideyoshi sent Ieyasu to govern lands in the east of Japan, attempting to contain his growing independence. Ieyasu made his headquarters at the small port of Edo (where Tokyo now stands). When Hideyoshi died campaigning in Korea, Ieyasu became one of the guardians of his young son. The leading military figures in Japan now began to scheme against each other and civil war again broke out. Another of the advisers appointed by Hideyoshi was Ishisa Mitsunari, and it was he who formed the Western Army against Ieyasu. In 1600 Ieyasu defeated the Western Army in the decisive battle of Sekigahara, thereby achieving supremacy in Japan. In 1603 Emperor Go-Yozei, ruler only in name, gave Ieyasu the historic title of shogun (military governor) to confirm his pre-eminence. Japan was now united under Ieyasu's control. He worked hard to restore stability to Japan and encouraged foreign trade, which included the exchange of gifts with James I of England and other European rulers. It was only later, under Ieyasu's successors, that Japan effectively isolated itself from foreign contact. Ieyasu died on 17 April 1616. He was later deified and his mausoleum at Nikko became one of the most important shrines in Japan.

Ikeamotion

The random wanderings of people who are trying to escape from Ikea. Its often fueled by swedish meatballs and cinnamon buns. Characteristics include bouncing off sofas with names like Umflaut then walking around in random circles; and stacking flat brown boxes on carts and careening down warehouse aisles.

I went to Ikea to buy a couch but then Ikeamotion hit and I could not figure out how to escape without buying a desk, two side tables and a bed.

IKEA

A magical big blue Swedish box responsible for most fights, break ups and injuries.

Me and my (Ex)wife went to IKEA this morning. We fought for hours and I hurt my toe from a flatpack shelf collapsing.

Ikeaphile

An Ikeaphile is someone who is addicted to the low cost, modern Swedish world of Ikea.

This person is prone to driving long miles to eat Swedish meatballs and may have an addiction to Lingonberry juice. There taste is in modern furniture with a European flare but not expensive and in better condition than items from other stores. Be very careful: Ikeaphiles will sometimes do and say anything to get lost in the giant blue store. They may carry around tape rulers and shopping lists in their pockets and complain where their shopping cart isn't four wheel drive.
