Of course, you realise why we never saw much of the battle.
ZEN: Three collanders, two ladles, one of those thingies that no-one's ever sure what to do with and a garlic press approaching Liberator on attack vector. CALLY: What do you mean, one of those thingies - that's an IKEA pasta spoon. JENNA: I don't think we can hold off an IKEA pasta spoon. Evasive action Zen, standard by three. VILA: I'd always wondered who buys those things. AVON: Well now you know.
The ship is rocked by enemy fire. Cue reused shot from a season 2 space battle. Cut to Space Command Headquarters.
SERVALAN: Jarriere, has the managing director of IKEA been arrested yet. JARRIERE: He died under interrogation, I'm afraid Ma'am. SERVALAN: What ? JARRIERE: It was Durkim, Ma'am apparently Lurena used to drag him round IKEA every Saturday. When the managing director started talking about wall tiles Durkim just snapped. It was horrible. SERVALAN: You're a Federation Officer, Jarriere, pull yourself together. JARRIERE: It was no' the violence Madam President. It was the wall tiles. That shade of pink, it's so last year. SERVALAN: It's an old wall Jarriere, it waits, I hope you die before you reach it. JARRIERE: (offended) Well there's no need to be melodramatic I'm sure !
No I'm not bored and I'm not trying to find excuses not to do something productive !
Stephen.

Maybe he can beat himself up, like Edward Norton's character in The Fight Club (who wasn't much of an Ikea fan either).

No, of course not. Stephen's piece is lovely, but we must persevere until we have all Jarriere, all the time. (Okay, okay, I'll settle for a little Jarriere every day.)

Did Shakespeare get let off doing Lear because Geoffrey of Monmouth had already done it ?
Stephen. (Who feels sure that some kind of award for most pretentious posting to the lyst in it's nine year history may now be in order).

You'd have to include references and/or footnotes, I think.
