Watch A Man Boldly Push His GF To The Limit With Bad IKEA Puns

In fairy tales, the first real test of a relationship was a valiant prince rescuing his beloved from some dastardly villain or fire breathing dragon.

In today's world, it's whether or not a couple can emerge unscathed from their first joint trip to IKEA. YouTuber simonline and his significant other Donna recently took the plunge into the Swede monogamy-gauntlet, and against all logic, Simon tested the very boundaries of the human capacity to love as he peppered her with some of the worst/best puns imaginable, using IKEA's signature products and their decidedly Swedish names. 

It looks like they made it through the flames without splitting up, but we urge you: don't try this at home (or to be more accurate, at your local IKEA). Better relationships have gone up against IKEA and failed. All it takes is one poorly conceived SKÄNKA joke, and before you know it, she's called you a PRICKIG and you're out on the street, carrying all those boxes alone.
