I thought that if I ignored the cabinets for a while, eventually they'd quit asking me to get them a new Floor. Well, they wore me down, and so today I finally gave them what they asked for. Here's some photographic evidence.
Now I'll finally be able to get some sleep without those cabinets bothering me. Although I think I hear them murmuring about their old friends the Appliances. This'll never end.

Cabinets are such complainers. But that floor aught to shut them up for a while, it looks really nice Ben. I like the angled look. When you look at that floor you can almost smell the food cooking.
This is exactly why I got rid of all my cabinet friends. I just can't abide their discontent with life
Perhaps it wasn't the floor you heard murmuring all night long, Ben. Perhaps, it was what was buried beneath the floor. THAT'S RIGHT! What you really heard was the Tell-Tale Toilet in your basement, the neglected second bathroom that badly wants you to fix it up!
Oh, Ben, how nice! What a change the floor makes! My eyes were bleary, when I first read your comments, and I thought you wrote (re: tricks cabinets played on floor) that they used to drop dry ice on it! I can imagine Dad's thoughts, upon seeing the pictures, "Now there's a floor to lay on!" And Lisa, you don't get rid of cabinets, you just get rid of cabinet fronts! Great job, Ben! So glad I got to be there, recently, and can visualize your work better.
I can just hear the pickle splats now. Nice looking floor, Ben!
Won't you have to wear shoes on it so those little plastic things won't poke your feet? That's why I put in laminate.
By the way, how did you manage to put in a floor without posting at least seven times? I suppose it's different with hardwood, though.
Hmm, insightful comments from all.
Thanks for the compliments, everyone.
David: I have a very succinct response to the Tell-Tale Toilet's request for an upgrade—"Nevermore".
Steve: the plastic things add spring to your steps, so you can cook and clean-up in one-quarter the time. It's revolutionary technology, developed by the Norwegians, and I was lucky to get my hands on a used set of floor springs for only $15K; new ones go for as much as $30K.
