I hate trying to shove everything I buy at IKEA into my small car. All those flat packs just don't fit in a small hatch back. If IKEA was closer, i could make several trips, but no, jam the car full, strap things to the roof, and figure the next time, I may have a different car.

Otherwise, flat packs have their uses, I couldn't fit three billi shelves in my car otherwise.

We're talking about Linux package formats every second day here. Let's today talk about IKEA. I like it.

It could have been the bluey episode "flat pack", quite an awesome episode on it's own.

I kind of figured it was some standard or some such, but on a generic ask community, who knows? (It Needed a link, or context)

Agreed - and Bluey rocks!

No no, they're on to something.

I was going to comment the opposite - you full your house with furniture that fit in your car in flat pack form, but when you come to move, none of it fits any more!
