I thought it was a room to dump stuff in that you would never want to see again…… so ….
Chewing gum…hots summer days when you stand or sit in it… !! I put my hand in a hot gum mound once, I was 12 and at the rec (rec = recreation = recreation park= park…. that’s how old I am !). It was grape flavour Hubba Bubba!! ….That son of a gun stretched to oak tree, 450 yards from the bench where I made contact. It was traumatising…
One size fits all clothing labels…. because its a lie, but you wear the clothes anyway because the label says it fits!!!
Fringe socks and tassels (who invented tassels… it just wrong).
Blue sour sweets that take the top layer of your tongue off…. …. !! Yep, I did, I ate them! Even though they smelt of paint remover!
And lastly, Bjork… she wore a dress with one swan on it to the Academy Awards….. We all know swans like to be in pairs, it was just ridiculous…..

I get ‘so’ as a kind of vocal tick, or something people just say, like well or um or ah, but I had an email a few days back when a question I asked was answered commencing ‘so’. That did surprise me. I guess they were trying to sound natural in the written word.

i’d like to dump rubbish ring pull tins and sardine tins that don’t open properly.

I have opened the skin of my hand with once such tin so, yes, bin them please.

I really don’t mind people answering a question (or starting a sentence) with the word so. Doesn’t bother me at all.

Given room 101 could be seem as a furtherance of Der Prozess (The Trial) by Franz Kafka, I would put Josef K in room 101 to see if he survives more than 1-year.

Other than that I would put Fonctionnaires in room 101, the whole bloody lot of them especially those of Belgium.

Why put Switzerland and Luxembourg into room 101, how can you torture a country?

Reading a good number of posts, I am not sure if posters have read 1984.
