SOL 6- Bored at the Store that has Everything

Bored at the Store that has Everything (literally)
We wander through the sections, looking at all of the different products, slowly making our way through. We pick up something here, get something there, but our cart is still quite empty. We finally maneuver ourselves into the section that we are looking for, and there they are, all of the bathroom sinks. We ponder and we search, we try to decide, but none of them are quite what we want. So, my sister and I both sit down, as are parents survey the possibilities.

Odd Ikea giraffe stuffed animal

Hmm... What to do? I move over to the children's game thingy that sit dotted all over the store. Before you say anything, I was extremely bored, so it was my last resort. I scroll through the options of games, and I randomly select one. Spot the difference. I pick one of the picture sets and start searching, taking in every detail, well, as many details as a child's game can have. I've found 5 out of 6, when I suddenly see an odd thing, and at first I think I'm imagining it. Out of the corner of the screen pops a vibrant giraffe who sticks his tongue out, and then pops back out of sight. I am now VERY confused. I click on it the next time it pops up, and the cheesy voice says "You found all of the differences!" In my mind I think, "You found all of the randomness we made!" I swipe through the rest of the options, and still bored I go sit next to my sister against the wall.

More examples of Ikea child-product weirdness

We talk for a time, but we both gradually turn back to our own thing. I, still being bored, start thinking about random songs, and one in particular... "shhh, don't tell your mother, fish in the cupboard..." I know they're not the real lyrics, but they're what I always hear. My sister and I laugh about it for a while. But I am still bored. I grab my dad's phone, pull up a picture of a fish, and place it in one of the cupboards near us. I whisper back to my sister, "Shh, don't tell our mother, fish in the cupboard..." We laugh again, for a time, but return to our perpetual bored state. It's amazing that Ikea has everything in the world except for young teen entertainment.
