Well, upon researching it I seems to have been half incorrect. It seems most IKEA rugs are named after Danish places. So I was incorrect in saying it's the cheap ones. Looking at the website, however, there are a few without danish place names. But yes, the historical theme is that we are meant to walk on the danish.

It's ich_iel (ich im echten Leben, which is the literal translation of me in real life)
And no, this isn't German. Too few vowels. It's Czech or Slovak

"Skittles mini garbage house kit"
Implying that M&Ms are garbage Skittles, I guess? 🤷

It’s obviously from the parallel timeline in which German became the official language of the United States.

Obviously this picture was taken in IKEA

IKEA doesn't sell skittles. Not Swedish enough. It would be a Pepparkakshus with Geléhallon on it called "Värmis".
lugal@sopuli.xyz · 2 pts · 1y
They would call it "Værmis" to sound more Scandinavian even though swedish uses ä and ö
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y
IKEA would never do that. We would NEVER use Danish letters
Cheap IKEA rugs are actually named after Danish places.

Maybe it's a Germany thing because we have Ä and Ö too, but IKEA in Germany has products like "Bjørn"
