"and to find that screw that you dropped in shaggy carpet....only a small child can do this."

BAH! Anyone can easily find it with a small magnet. Drag it through the carpet and CLICK! Oh, there it is!

Assembly robots will only increase the utter helplessness of the modern man and woman. That's not a good thing. O Ye confused by IKEA, cry not for sympathy for thine absent skills! Get thee back and play with thine Legos until thou learnest how to follow directions.

Lack of "Guy skills" can hurt you. A guy blew a first date with a smokin' hot friend of mine - she had to call ME for tire-changing directions in the RAIN. I never met a woman who thought helpless was sexy.
