There's a TV show at BBC called ROOM 101, in which celebrities are invited to discuss their pet hates and persuade the host to consign them to a fate worse than death in Room 101 (named after the torture room in George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four).
In the show, the audience often takes part in deciding what will enter the room, although the host is responsible for the final decision. Any item can go into Room 101, from boiled eggs to your aunt's awful laughter or the teletubbies.
In our next meetings, this is exactly what meetupspeakers are going to do: let's think about all small annoying or absurd things that should be locked up in a room away from everyone in order to make the world a better (!) place to live.
To warm things up until then, how about suggesting things here in our blog and wait for the next commentator to send or save your suggestions to/from that room?
first and most importantly: cockroaches! please, send those hideous creatures to a fate worse than death. =}
ReplyDeleteI completely agree that cockroaches MUST be sent to room 101! For me cigarettes should be sent there too :}
