What would you put in Room 101?

"You know what's in Room 101, Winston. Everyone knows what's in Room 101." -- G. Orwell.

My current list in no particular order:

Microsoft Natural Keyboard
Anne Robinson AND The Welsh
People who hog the outside lane
People who drive so close they can read my number plate by brail
The smell of shoe shops
People over 70 who shop at lunch time
Security barrier intercoms
People who don't say who they are when they come to my office asking for help
Used Car Salesmen
The Tweenies

Excuse my extreme ignorance about this subject, but what's room 101 ?

[Fat Tone]

Room 101 is that place where your worst fears reside, it comes from the novel 1984 by George Orwell. More recently its used as somewhere to put those things that really annoy you in a BBC TV program of the same name. Anne Robinson said whe wanted to put the Welsh in there and provoked a national outcry

[Dogbert]

Oh, cool.

To bad the book is sitting on my desk (and move around the room when I look for stuff) yet I didn't find the patience to sit down and read it the last few years.

Maybe it's because I experience it for real when I use M$ software...

[Dogbert]

By the way,

In this case, most people would put their mother in law there.

[Fat Tone]

I would have done when she was alive

[Dogbert]

Oh well,

I'm going to meet my future one in 1 week

You know what's the definition of 'mixed feelings' ?
Seeing your mother-in-law driving off a cliff in your brand new car

My mistake, I meant to type Telly Tubbies, and stir up some feeling, but it was early...

The Tweenies are cool http://www.bbc.co.uk/education/tweenies/

Oh well, this thread isn't going where I wanted it to anyway. The idea was you all posted lists of things you nominate for inclusion in room 101 because you don't like them, or they are annoying, or just for a laugh!

Ya, I think that would be considered for everyone's Room 101.

True...everyone knows blue elastic doesn't go with brown hair

Isn't that just a picture of Gwyneth Paltrow from the 2002 Oscars?

[Technoid]

More I look at that picture I become Convinced that I would rather face a angry Alien than "her"......
