Room 101
 

Right, just dawned on me that there are many, many things I would put into Room 101.

Please offer your suggestions (no, it can't be me) and we should collectively agree or disagree.

First:

Mushrooms.
They're rank. They're fungal, they're not even nice looking, they grown on the floor, they don't belong in any meal really, they offer very little in terms of pleasantry either as flavour or a 'thing'. They come in pies, which frankly should just be steak or chicken, not steak & (unless it's ale).

Mushrooms aren't even clean. For example, The FDA allows 19 maggots and 74mites in every 3.5 ounce can off mushrooms in the USA. Who the fudge wants that?

Thrillhouse for the win!

Re: Room 101
 

Anyone who drives a Nissan Tiida or Toyota Yaris with AD plates - clearly a cheap rental and someone who does not care about any other road user.

Re: Room 101
 

How's Palmela Handerson and her five lovely sisters that you pretend is a Lithuanian model?

Re: Room 101
 

I honestly have no idea what your on about.

Re: Room 101
 

My Tiida rental plates are Dubai plates. Am I ok?

Re: Room 101
 

Hmm....

Guinness is rank and belongs to Room 101.

The entire State of Qatar.

Indian restaurants where there's 30 waiters running amok like a Charlie Chaplin film.

Re: Room 101
 

err what exactly is a 'room 101'?:confused:

Re: Room 101
 

Oysters.

Posh snot.

Re: Room 101
 

is THRILLHOUSE, IGGLY?

Re: Room 101
 

Ravis springs to mind :lol:

Re: Room 101
 

cats and wasps.

Re: Room 101
 

From George Orwell's novel 1984, it's the basement torture chamber in the Ministry of Love, in which the Party attempts to subject a prisoner to their own worst nightmare, fear or phobia, with the object of breaking down their resistance.

And also a light hearted show on UKTV starring (currently) Frank Skinner.

Re: Room 101
 

ah thanks IKNOW

Re: Room 101
 

It's a show where celebrities come and put two or three things into room 101 (to never be seen again). I never found it funny.


Fun fact, basic 101 is a reference to the college course numbering system. Although there is some variation among the universities, generally speaking, the first number indicates the year level (1 meaning freshman, 2 meaning sophomore), the 0 indicates entry level (as in the lowest level course offered within the first grouping) and the second 1 indicates that it's a survey course (which is broad based, rather than specialised courses that one would take later on).

So basic 101 means the easiest and first course

Re: Room 101
 

No, Guinness is good. Qatar - meh. Indians - disagree.

Yes, agreed. Pointless.

Yes, agreed. Pointless.

Re: Room 101
 

marmite
men with long hair and or long nails

Re: Room 101
 

Marmite is in.

Men with long hair - I'm sorry, I don't care enough about this.

Re: Room 101
 

I didn't argue with your mushrooms even though I love mushrooms. And I love cats.

Be nice to me.

Re: Room 101
 

What about Online Trolls? I really hate them, those guys really get me down.

Re: Room 101
 

Iggle/thrillhouse

Re: Room 101
 

OK. Guinness can't go in mate but Qatar can and shit Indian restaurants. You're probably right with the last, I'm just thinking rose-tinted about my last UK curry on Brick Lane with my Dad nearly a year ago. Sob sob.

HALLELUJAH.

Re: Room 101
 

In no particular order...

Reality TV 'stars'
Celery
Kardashians
Custard
Pampered celebs moaning about the Calais Jungle
Cider (used to like it, not any more)
Rainbow evaporated milk
Indian tea (see above)
Indian sweets (ditto)
Dubai drivers
Dubai lift occupants
Dubai shop customers
Dubai Metro passengers
Rice pudding

I like mushrooms.

Re: Room 101
 

I do wicked fried garlic mushrooms. Awesome accompaniment to a fry up.

In should be:

Bananas

Coffee

Ergo Bannoffee pie

Tiramisu

Mozzies

SNP supporters

Traffic wardens

HSBC

Re: Room 101
 

Poncy coffee shops (I include Starbucks) and men with dodgy facial hair.

And Barnasty.

Re: Room 101
 

Rainbow Milk

Brunch

Blokes who wear no socks and short trousers

Re: Room 101
 

Re: Room 101
 

Oh goodness yes.

Mushrooms in a fry up? Hand in your passport you faux-continental treason monkey.

Bananas and Coffee are my favourite fruit and hot drinks. So unfortunately, you can have one - bananas. Banoffee is made by God between the thighs of virgins. It's sacred.

Tiramisu I like but you can have it.

Balance.

Re: Room 101
 

Men with greased back hair wearing shiny suits and pointy shoes, and later skinny jeans (ffs if your over 30 steer away from skinny jeans), who call you habibi and say yannie at the end off every sentence (90% of Barasti)!!!

Re: Room 101
 

Barasti (all of it)
All estate agents
Anyone who calls you if you list your car on dubizzle (kind of makes me think why list in the first place, but there you go)

Re: Room 101
 

3 crackers there.

Although I went to Barasti at the weekend with a small group, got a table, got beers in, chilled and enjoyed it. Full of ***** but we didn't have to talk to them.

Can I get Trump into Room 101?

Re: Room 101
 

Barasti gets the clientele it deserves don't you think , great when you're 20 something , shite when you're older . Also

Dubai Gastro Pubs - If i want a burger i just want it on a plate , not a board or a piece of slate and a miniature pretentious metal basket of chips . I know there's plenty wankers in this town but it's like a disease !!!

Re: Room 101
 

I'm going to put this out there. I quite like Barasti.

Re: Room 101
 

It's okay. Some people even like to insert hooks into the flesh on their backs and hang from the ceiling..

Re: Room 101
 

Daytime is easy on the eye in this weather but after 6 on a weekend is dreadful

Re: Room 101
 

Agree on the plates. Hateful trying to eat off what can only possibly be a germ ridden chopping board.

I rarely ever go to Barasti but with a few friends at the weekend getting there for sundown and chilling all night (read; getting leathered) it was great. Yes, the clientele lets it down but I'm not out on the pull and if a good crowd of you with a table and you can get over the awful service (cut some slack because it's busy, but it's still terrible) then it's a decent bar.

Re: Room 101
 

Trump and his supporters.

Also tarragon and liquorice.

Re: Room 101
 

Big, black, bastard noisy crickets.

Re: Room 101
 

Yes, yes, not sure.

I don't mind liquorice. But I don't go seeking it out.
No. It's grubby. It's in.

Yeah, those ****ers are in.

Re: Room 101
 

I aint ever seen these?
