The one I want to take issue with is: That thing in the bedroom for storing clothes is a:

If it's built into the wall and has doors (or a place for doors--my sister's is currently missing doors and has a curtain-type thing in its place), it's a closet.

If it's free-standing and has drawers, it's a dresser or a chest of drawers.

If it's free-standing and has doors (and possibly also drawers--mine has three at the bottom), it's an armoire, which I've only seen one other person mention here. But then, I am Southern, and we tend to do things differently.

The only time I talk about "wardrobes" is when I'm referencing Narnia. :D
