Room 101 is a BBC comedy TV series where which celebrities are invited to discuss their pet hates and persuade the host to consign them in Room 101. Each round there is a different category (technology being an example) and each contestant must choose their pet hate from that category and argue why is should be put in Room 101. You can watch the show for yourself if you want: BBC iPlayer - Room 101 - Extra Storage: Series 2: Episode 7 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBvoU8MppNY Anyway I'd thought this would be a fun game to play Here's the rules: Each poster must argue why their pet hate should be locked away Room 101 forever from the category the poster above has given them. Then they'll leave a category for the next poster. The next poster will decide whether the previous poster's pet hate should be locked away in Room 101 before making their own argument about their pet hate. ______________________________________________ Example: The category is video games: Post #1: The thing I hate most about about video games is escort missions. They are tedious, unsatisfying and no gamer on the planet enjoys them. The person who you are suppose to protect dies way too easily and it doesn't help then the person also has a horrible personality (e.g. Ashley from Resident Evil 4.) And of course on top of that, you have to worry about protecting yourself or you'll have to start again. Locking up escort missions in video games in Room 101 will see all gamers breathe a collective sigh of relief. Category for the next poster is: Music Post #2: I agree. Escort missions are terrible so I'll banish them to Room 101. Boybands must be locked away in Room 101. They are merely manufactured tools used by music moguls like Simon Cowell to make lots of money. They get a few good looking guys, put them in front of a bunch of teenage girls and they go batshit. Using sex appeal to shift records is just sinister. They also design the songs to be earworms. So even if the lyrics are awful you'll find yourself humming along and they make no real contribution to the industry. Lets just end the madness here and lock away boybands in Room 101. The category for the next poster is: Food & Drink. Post #3: I disagree. Some boybands have great songs. Boybands will not be locked away in Room 101. ___________________________________________________________________ So you get the idea. Okay, let's begin. The category for the next poster is: People.
Teenage boys with the maturity level of a 3 year old should be locked away in room 101. They tend to laugh at inapropriate jokes at the worst of times, and they make fun of people because they are nicer than they are. Not all teenage boys, just the ones that act like 3 year olds. It also annoys me when they talk to me about something I couldn't care less about. To benefit society in general, please lock away immature teenage boys in room 101! The next category is: Food
Agreed. Teenage boys with the maturity level of a 3 year old shall be banished to Room 101. Fizzy drinks (soda) and energy drinks must be banished to Room 101. I'm sorry but they are evil. All that sugar is damaging your body. They can permanently alter your metabolism, they're one of the contributing factors to obesity and they are so addictive that heroin easier to get off. So for the sake of future generations, fizzy drinks and energy drinks must be banished to Room 101. The category for the next poster is: Politics
I agree whole-heartedly with your statement! Republicans should be placed into Room 101. How dare they not think that homosexuals should have the same rights to marriage as heterosexuals. The next topic is: Artwork
( i think you forgot to do your own pet hate there bud ) Ill start from artwork then, My pet hate in artwork is modern art, nwo not all modern art im talking about things like this There is no point to have something that expresses something other than nothing, if i wanted to stare at nothing id take a nap. Art is about creating nto saying that you cnat create nothing , just don't stick it in a gallery and take up for panels worth of space The next category is pets
I hate most modern 'art', if its technically art at all. Cats that walk over your crotch when you're laying on your bed need to be locked away into the farthest corrner of Room 101. I would like to read my book in peace without my cat deciding to get my attention. It works, let me tell you; she had my attention all right. The next category is: Music.
I disagree if you banished every cat that has ever walked on a person's crotch you would be banishing some adorable kitties. No adorable feline deserved to be banished to room 101. Musicals that try to be realsitic should be banished to room 101. I'm sorry but you can't burst out singing during the midst of the french revolution and be expected to be taken seriously. How did something like Les Miserales get nominated for best picture at the academy awards, the young couple had no characterization and they fell in love looking at eachother through a gate, A GATE (sorry i got a little side tracked). Next topic: places
I disargee. I can banish musicals that try to be realistic to Room 101. I don't see anything wrong with them. Who cares if something is singing while killing a bunch of people? Places. I'm going for fast food 'restaurants'. It's more expensive to buy food from these than it is to cook yourself, their food is so unhealthy and it contributing to obesity. Not to mention, the very big chains don't pay all their :***: taxes by exploiting loopholes. Get rid of these places so people will have to cook or go to a real restaurant where they get proper quality food. The category for the next poster is: Work
Forgive me: I'm going to rant a bit. Employees that have to have others do their jobs for them and stay clocked in an extra hour because they 'forget'to do them need to be locked in Room 101. (Is that a run-on?) This guy forgot to do his close up procedure yesterday, so when closing tonight, we had twice as much work to do. My manager was furious. If you expect to get paid, you have to actually DO your job first. The next topic is: Television Commercials.
I agree. There's nothing worse than someone you have to work with who doesn't pull their weight. Television commercials...can happily stay barricaded inside of Room 101 for the rest of eternity. There's nothing more deplorable than your favorite show being interrupted by an armada of insipid, ill-placed advertisements that really have nothing to do with you. And you'd think that they'd at least attempt to be entertaining, but ninety percent of the time they're repetitive and terrible. And sometimes, they try too hard to be funny, and as a result just come off as obnoxious. So commercials suck pretty much. Unless it's movie trailer. Or even an Old Spice commercial. I pretty much live for those, but since I only see them on random channels at one in the morning (and often preceded by a Trojan ad), it's a rare and short-lived pleasure. I also don't mind if commercials pop in if I'm watching something terrible lolol Next up is: Reality Shows
Eh...I like having a bathroom/get-a-snack/annoy-other-people-in-household-or-dorm breaks. So no. Reality Shows that cover drama and nothing else should be banished to Room 101. I watched a couple episodes and it was people overreacting and hating each other for every little thing. Next topic: Transportation.
