This may not just be the Americans

but it seems some believe that the swedish population consists of blond, (often half-naked) girls in their 20's.

I know that
Hjorgen is Swedish for Cloudberry

I may have spelled that wrong

Mange Tak! (or is that Danish?)

hmmm
hjorgen is not a word at all
it's almost a name, but not really

Mange Takk
is Danish

Ikea doesn't help your cause though

well
here in sweden the people who buy stuff at IKEA nowadays are mostly students and poor people.
but almost everyone has a piece of furniture from IKEA from when they where younger. Unless they've fallen apart.
not very fond of the stuff myself
When I'm in an IKEA I usually just steal the little pencils and buy batteries
( The little pink animal mostly harmless, except on, Thu 23 Feb 2006, 16:00, archived)

aw bless
it's 'pencils'

and no doubt the batteries are for your motorised penis enlarger/dildo?
