Good Quotes: That Sofa Problem Los Angeles

It's just, when you buy furniture, you tell yourself, that's it. That's the last sofa I'm gonna need. Whatever else happens, I've got that sofa problem handled.

- Narrator/Tyler Durden - from Fight Club

I still want a J. Fruktbar coffee table.

I was quite happy to be at Ikea once and witnessed a father and son talk about fitted sheets because I wondered if that was essential to their survival, in the hunter-gatherer sense of the word.

Do you know what a duvet is? A comforter. It's a blanket. Just a blanket. Now why do guys like you and me know what a duvet is? Is this essential to our survival, in the hunter-gatherer sense of the word? No. What are we then?
...Consumers?
Right. We are consumers. We're the bi-products of a lifestyle obsession.

K T G: no more so than telling people Kaiser Soze is the gimpy fella or that Vader is Luke's father :P

Good movie to quote - those the quotes I remember don't have to do with decorating.

ChrisGal: I felt like they had everything to do with that sense of urgency many people have to fill their lives with "stuff", whether it be a sofa, accessories, or other items that end up owning us. Decorating is just one part of making a house a home.

Thanks Gregory - now Star Wars makes a lot more sense.

Meanwhile, It should read Narrator/Jack - It wasn't Tyler Durden who said that [without spoiling it further for KTG who hasnt seen the movie but knows the ending - i'll let you debate why this is true for yourselves] and the Narrator was given the name Jack for purposes of reference from the quotes 'I am Jack's raging bile duct' etc.

I love Fight Club.

K T G --

Oh, duh -- now I see what you're saying, and I agree. Yes yes yes.

Ignore my dumb synopsis of the obvious, encoded above. :)

Where you going with this, Ikea boy?

OMG (:O

Please amend that "Fight Club" quote ASAP to change or take out completely the name of the person being quoted!

"Fight Club" is one of my favourite films don't go spoilering it for anyone else!!

Well the ones I remember are the ones that don't have to do with decorating. Here are four or five of the ones that come right to my head (and yes I've seen this movie like ten to fifteen times):

"This is your life - it's ending one minute at a time."

"Hey, you created me. I didn't create some loser alter-ego to make myself feel better. Take some responsibility! "

"You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fucking khakis. You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world. "

"If you wake up at a different time in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? "

And the funniest one to me: "WHOA! WHOA! WHOA! Ok, you are now firing a gun at your 'imaginary friend' near 400 GALLONS OF NITROGLYCERINE! "
