Ikea...Swedish for cheap.

Nice to see them use Italian stereotypes to promote their kitchenware. But they got it so wrong. In an Italian kitchen, if you're not helping to prepare the meal you stay the fuck out. And then there the obnoxious nona. After finding that the sauce isn't up to her standards she tells everyone "tutti fuori". Again totally inaccurate, if the sauce is disgusting she's going to tell everyone in the kitchen to "smama". Nonas don't mince words.

Smama has no direct translation, the closest is the British term, bugger off.

Voglio una bella Svedesse per una scrocciata di mingia!

"the lights look like Audi lights"

Except that it's not an Audi, it's a shitty Chevy. What the smug prick pitchman is telling you. With a Chevy, you get what you pay for. The brakes and the bearings start to deteriorate almost to the day that the warranty expires. If you keep a Chevy car for six years expect at least two trips to the mechanic for brake works. Same for a Chevy truck, you'll need to replace the bearings after four years, less if you use it for construction.

Bacce mi culo Chevy.
 
 
Fuck you George Clooney! What I would do to Camilla Belle, but this is a civilized board.

 
Don't forget the greatness of the sweatshops.

Not sure why he did this, the film is now considered a classic. When you're the executive producer, this is one of your options.

 
My sister had an Impala, new off the lot. within three years she got a warning message about the steering. Her brother in law ( a class a mechanic) looked up the "secret" service bulletins that only chevy dealers and mechanics see, and it was either a visit to the mechanic or spray the steering gear with WD40. I used to be a die hard chevy guy, but I wont touch one.
