Room 101

Bought some wraps today which say they are

• Gluten Free
• Wheat Free
• Dairy Free
• Yeast Free
• Nut Free
• Soy Free

They forgot to mention taste free.

They do have a handy little picture on the back showing you how to wrap them. I followed the instructions very carefully, making sure I did not overfill them.

They still broke and fell apart.

Room 101

Those long taggy things they put on your clothes these days.

Their reasoning is that it helps the clothes stay on the hanger in the store.
Fine, but they don't always work, so I still end up kicking the item under the rack cause I can't be assed picking it up.
Plus if I buy it I have to remember to cut them out and run the risk of cutting holes in my top, or I forget and end up walking around with what looks like a shoelace or ribbon protruding from my arm pit.

Oh, and I couldn't find a pic which illustrated my annoyance (causing me further annoyance) but when I googled clothes tags the above pic came up so thought I would add for your enjoyment!

Room 101

Miami B(it)(ea)ch

I absolutely detest this song.  It comes on the radio and I change channels. 
I did however find this very cheesy you tube clip some gangly teenagers did to it.  Watch it with the sound down if you hate the song as much as I do

Room 101

Jessica Mauboy

She's so lovely, she's sooooo nice, and so down to earth...
Her songs are fizzy - like coke with a Mentos mint...
She's soooooo sweet that she makes my teeth ache...
Everybody loves her.... except me!
Too much sugar is bad for you!

Room 101

People Who Use the Force

This is actually not a dig at Star Wars fans - so no hate mail thank you.  It's those people who despite given a set of instructions, fail to use them, preferring to "use the force" or rather, they automatically assume that they know better and don't need to read instructions.
Of course, this means that they fuck it up!
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS - THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE THERE FOR!

Room 101

Whiney Voices

(oh no it 'ain't!)

The one's that bi-pass your ears and drill straight to your brain. Like fingers down a chalkboard, one word from a whiney voice makes your teeth tingle.

Room 101

This Crappy Fat ad

It makes me cringe every time I see it staring at me from an internet page.  Totally unrealistic, and an unhealthy way of portraying women in a way to sell products.  There is no wonder we have issues with anorexia and bulimia when you have images like this coming at you when you are trying to read the news online or looking up information.

Room 101

Tequila.

Everytime I hear that word, it makes me sing this song:



However, it does not evoke good times or make me happy.  Thanks to 1 fateful night of teaching my brother in law the art of "Lick, drink, Suck" which he kept getting wrong. So I had to show him again.  He got it wrong again, and so the student and teacher got progressively through the bottle.
Next day I spewed nothing but salt.
I was ill for 3 days.
Put Tequila in room 101 - PLEASE!

Room 101

Pregnant women who smoke.

I don't get on soap boxes very often, and I prefer not to force my opinions on to other people.  I detest smoking, but if you wanna go and kill yourself slowly, one cancer stick at a time, and stink while doing it, then go right on ahead.
What makes me sick to my stomach though, is women who still smoke when they are pregnant. We all know that this can seriously harm your baby.  Is this not child abuse at it's earliest form?  At the very least it must be neglect, but surely this must show a complete lack of care or concern for your unborn child.  If you can't show a bit of willpower for the sake of your chidren, then don't pro-create.

Room 101

"Street Type"

I know I have put bad Grammar in here before, but this is kind of different.  I'm sure they go to school, and I assume they are taught the principles of good English, but yet they think it's really "cool" to type how they talk. 

Example is a question I got from one of those naff home made Quiz Creators on FB:

"

how long wud u last

1. not very long..u dump cuz u see him with other girls
2. couple months cuz he needs space
3. u last more than half a year cause ur perfect

"

any spell check worth it's javascript would have been SCREAMing at all the mispellings, made up words, none use of capital letters and not one punctuation mark in sight! (the numbers I put in when reformatting)
... Ok, actually there is 2 "full stops in there, used incorrectly as a pause and with no space following)
Dagnammit!

Room 101

Gossip Columnists

I'm tired of hearing about Tiger Woods. I couldn't give a crap how many women he had his 5iron in.

I don't care that Angelina ripped Brads shirt in an argument. They can afford to buy him a new one.

and the less said about Paris Hilton the better.

WE DON'T CARE!

I would like to hear about REAL news, about heroic "ordinary" people who should be recognised for their gallant, brave deeds or their long but tireless struggles to make this world a better place.  I don't wanna hear about bimbos that are only famous because they let their boyfriends tape their sex acts.

Room 101

Commuting

we need a law that says that you have to live within 10 ks of where you work...

Room 101

Grey Marle

If you wear grey marle – you look like a dick… see?

Room 101

AMI's Nasal Technology

... cause sometimes there is nothing wrong with a 2 minute man. You can get it all over and done with so I can get back to watching Private Practice.

btw... The pic came up when I googled Nasal technology for a pic to post. Made me giggle!

Room 101

Plastic Shower Curtains

... cause they stick to your ass while you're rinsing and scare the shit out of you!

Room 101

Never enough-ers

Never happy with their lot.. always have something to complain about. You know the ones... they get taken for a wonderful day out, and yet complain about the few spots of rain they got.. The would win the lottery and complain about having to pay taxes or having to go all the way across town to pick up the cheque.

These people need to be given special glasses that let's them see the good things in life. We'll call them posi-specs.

Room 101

Trams

They are slow, annoying and driving down a road with tram tracks scares the hell out of me.
... also I have only travelled on them twice and both times I was groped.

Room 101

People who don't check spelling of other people's names!

Their names and details have been deleted to protect the stupid and/or incompetent...

My e-mail:

"Contact person for accounts is xxxxxxxxxxxx, telephone #########.

Thanks and regards

Tracy

National Fleet Controller"

Their response:

Tracey,

Thanks for the details.

Regards,

xxxxxxxx (I'm a tool who is too lazy to read properly and not professional enough to check a simple matter of spelling someone's name correctly)

Room 101

Trucker Caps.

The foam front that makes your forehead looks twice as tall as it really is.. and worse... the cheap mesh net at the back to supposedly let ventilation in.

Please face it... they look shit.. if you wanna wear a cap, wear a baseball cap. At least they conform to the shape of your head and don't look like you made it at home from your gramma's curtains.

Room 101

Credit Cards

well this one is a no brainer... put them into room 101, and I don't get into debt, and I can't buy anything I can't afford.

simple 'innit!
