Awesome job, Mitch! I've always loved the ubiquitous Ikea bag. I still use mine from uni for the laundromat, and have a separate one for car camping for all the miscellaneous items. It's essentially the West's version of the

Yes. Let's refrain from one-line puns. I'd hate to open a HN thread in the near-future only to have the top-rated comments be puns. Good, on-topic forums are as rare as hens teeth these days.
