Hey, IKEA comes from Sweden. Guess what else comes from Sweden? That's right, death metal! The object of the quiz is to distinguish between the IKEA furniture names and the band names. Take it here: IkeaOrDeath.comMy result: I am disappointed, but I don't know what to be more disappointed at: that I hadn't heard of half the bands, or at the low score. (Well, guess I need to brush up on my knowledge of black metal?)

I only scored 12 out of 20 and I'm not sure if that's a commentary on my lack of death/black metal knowledge or just my inability to believe that IKEA stuff could really have such weird names. Also, the 'Samspelt' is one of the most terrifying things I've ever seen. Second also, Nortt is pretty good.

What I found amusing was that the definition they provided said 'Samspelt' refers to any deer-shaped furniture, or house decorating implement.
Horde of creepy neon green pixelated blank-faced deer? Next Doctor Who villains?
Nortt was one of the ones I've actually heard of (and I think the only one I've actually listened to), and agreed, they are pretty good.
People who get high scores would be one of two things: rabid IKEA fans or rabid black metal fans. I know next to nothing about IKEA, and seemingly very little about black metal. XD

Horde of creepy neon green pixelated blank-faced deer? Next Doctor Who villains? Yes, please. Probably too creepy for Moffat, though .

Is ANYTHING too creepy for Moffat?
They'd need a terrifying ability, though, one that everyone fears. What can faceless green pixel deer possibly do? I'd say trap people in the internet, except it's been done already. :-P
I saw a video on Youtube of a father trying to calm a crying baby. Put on Satyricon, and the baby immediately stopped crying. Saw another video of a dad trying to feed a fussy baby, couldn't have been more than a few months old. The dad put on Satyricon, and the baby started I kid you not headbanging. Still wasn't eating his food though, because he was too busy happily headbanging.
I think there was a point to this somewhere.
Oh yeah. Other children might boogie to Dora the Explorer. If I ever have a kid I'll probably be the death metal mommy who plays Satyricon as a lullaby. (Yes, I know Satyricon isn't death metal.) Satyricon is actually very soothing. XD

I just accidentally pictured that deer walking.
*shudder*
It walks in 'pixels', somehow always managing to look like it's made of retro 8-bit animation while at the same time being 3D.

I have this creepy vision of them being oddly deerlike. One minute a creepy pixelated Bambi is just innocently grazing (ugh, Uncanny Valley much?), the next...the poor huntsman is surrounded.
If Disney/Pixar ever did an animated Doctor Who movie, these would be the villains.
Oh no, this would totally take place in the Toy Story universe, wouldn't it?
On the other hand, I REALLY want to see what happens when Woody and Buzz Lightyear are the Doctor's companions!
