Hello and good morning to yeahyeahyeah and any one else who wants to join in. TV tonight, it's about this time last week we had the same question, Fred Dibnah, CSI, Holby City. Which brings me to my question.  Room 101 is on tonight, if you were invited to take part what 4 things would you want to condemn to Room 101 and why ?

[nicola_red]

We had this Q before and it was quite entertaining, but can't we have 5 things instead of 4...?

my four are:

1) Hayfever

2) Mushrooms

3) Robbie Williams

4) Meat-eating

and if I am allowed a fifth...

5) Scallies/chavs who shout "RED HAIR!" and similar at me in the street.

[FastBarry]

O.K. 5 things, but what's wrong with Mushrooms. Great in pizzas, great in Spaggy Bol, Sunday morning fry up, mushroon soup, no sorry don't think they can go.

• My boss - he lines his paperclips in rows and still lives at home with his parents (he's 48)
• Worms/ Maggots/ Snakes/ Jellysfish/ Octopi - Anything without legs/too many legs just freaks me out
• Cigarettes - then I wouldn't find it so hard to give up
• Seeds - I like sunflower and pumpkin seeds to eat, but there is something about seeing the inside of a melon or a pepper that makes my hairs prickle and makes me want to heave seeing all those little seeds all packed together.   Ugh..... My mouth is water and skin prickling now.

[natalie_1982]

If Nicola's allowed five then I want to add G4.  Do you really want a reason?

[FastBarry]

Hi Natalie1982, G4 totally agree, in fact why stop with G4 lets just get rid of reality pop star shows.

[butter1]

This is fun!

Mine would have to be..

1. Umbrella's - only becaus I hate 'umbrella day' in London.  Every seems to come at you with all these umbrella's and I get hit in the face!

2. The Cheeky Girls.  Can't stand them...ggrrrr

3. Who want's to be a millionaire - been on too long, give it a rest!

4. Posh

[littleoldme]

1. Bagpipes - no offence, Scotland, but if I want to hear a cat being trodden on, I'll go and tread on a cat...and the way they keep playing by themselves for five minutes when the piper's finished. Spooky.

2. Horoscopes - absolute tosh. Oh, I'm going to have an argument with a loved one today, am I? And so are approximately one-twelfth of the world's population, all of whom happen to have a birthday within a couple of weeks of mine? Piffle.

3. Guy Fawkes Night - I wouldn't mind if it was Guy Fawkes NIGHT, even Guy Fawkes Weekend I could stomach, it's Guy Fawkes MONTH I object to. Also, fireworks are meant to make pretty colours in the sky, not just make bangs loud enough to shake buildings and make my poor dog scared to go out for his evening walk. You might as well have a flamin' gelegnite party. Morons.

4. The Countryside Alliance - there has never been a more pointless, self-centred group of pampered halfwits. Well, not since Westlife, anyway.

5. My lack of self-discipline that makes me spend time on this site when I should be working!

[littleoldme]

By the way, how on Earth is bernardo going to whittle his usual 134-item list down to just five?

[natalie_1982]

Well done for putting the fireworks one in there littleoldme, I can't believe I forgot it!

[Little Lady]

t1gger i will have to agree with those ruddy Cheeky Girls they wreck my head! Hmmm people sptting greenies in public is foul too! Defintely chavs LOL! ewww and Cider and my last would be people who sit there and pull chewy from there mought and wrap it round there fingers it is WRONG!!!

[Chillum]

flytippers.

religion.

hangovers.

twigletts.

[Elfin]

Putting the world to rights...

1. Religion

2. Party politics

3. Alcohol

4. Bad parenting

5. Cheese

[Dom Tuk]

My four are

1. the girl from the last big brother who said 'chicken' all the time...she is out of our radar now but i dont want to risk having her anywhere in our ether again.

2. Cherie Blair. her smile says it all

3.The queens honours list. It is full of mediocre people.

4. George Bush

[ems27]

Hollyoaks (no explanation needed)

The Brit Awards (always rubbish and embarrassing)

People that talk using catch phrases from popular programmes like Little Britain or Ali G

"the customer is always right" having worked in retail i would hear this about 5 times a day, its just not true. The customer should come 1st but the customer is usually wrong

[Glossopswift]

1. Rats. Nasty things.

2. Football - I love it so much and it causes so much pain. Consign it to the depths with all its overpaid, socially inept wusses who fall over when someone breathes, and then we can start again from scratch.

3. Snoring

4. James Joyce novels. (this is controversial) There are authors I don't like myself, but understand that other people have different tastes. I really, really can't see what anyone sees in JJ's work other than a desire to pretend they like them in the name of modern art.

5. My urethra. Straighten up, dammit.

[Loosehead]

1. All Soaps.

2. France.

3. The ECHR, EU, Human Rights act etc. Not the EU countries themselves except France obviously just the Amorphuos mass of corrupt beauracracy.

4. New and for that matter old Labour

5. All those jobs that are only advertised in the Guardian for "counsellors" and "Coordinators" etc, that are not really jobs at all.

[CarolG]

Musicals

London Underground

Geezer Birds (famous ones especially, ie Zoe Ball, Edith Bowman, Sara Cox, Helen Chamberlin etc)

Daniel Beddingfield

People quoting comedies (have to agree with Ems here, it grates on me so much)

[FastBarry]

Going well aren't we, all excellent answers so far except for Mushrooms; Posh ? well alright then; Twiglets, what would you like to replace them with;

Elfin, no, not alcohol sorry;

Dom Tuk, yes Cherie Blair definitely as long as you include Tony, I just want to smack him in the gob every time I see him;

GlossopSwift, item 5, what's that all about, we'd better not go there;

And Natalie_1982 is that really true about your boss, how do you look at him without laughing, very funny;

Right, here's my list:-

1) Football, never have liked it and never will.

2) Marmite, well, either you do or you don't.

3) News at Ten,especially when it interferes with the film. We have breakfast news and it gets repeated at 15  minute intervals, we all have  a daily paper, we have more news at 5, 6, 7 o'clock I don't want more news.

4) Side Salad, why do restaurants serve up side salad with all and sundry, do they imagine it makes an unhealthy meal into a healthy one.

I can think of plenty more but I'll save them in case the topic crops up again.

[natalie_1982]

You cannot put Marmite in there!

Yes, it is true about my boss.  Yes, I am leaving as soon as humanly possible.  Oh, and not only does he line the paperclips up but he has them in a colour coded order and if he is down, say a green one, he will go through our desks until he finds one to match it (they all have to be even you see).

And we're soooooooo naughty (!) sometimes when he has gone home we go in and mess his paperclips up and pretend it was the cleaners, or we dump loads of paper on the top of them......Aren't we just the wildest?

Sorry for the digression.  Rant over.

[natalie_1982]

Oh, that was a plea to put my boss in there instead of marmite.
