The FRA Room 101

Damn. Well, heres the next one. A group of people who are so short-sighted that no amount of glasses can help them

Prejucidal People

I go into a school where you can be targeted for anything at all - being short, being tall or anything, and Im autistic and am sometimes made a target myself. And we havent done anything specific, were just made targets for everyone because a natural reason that we cant deny. One boy in my school called Laim Purvis is targeted becuase hes part German and gets quite a lot of abuse. Not light-hearted abuse but racial abuse about what the Germans did in WW2. I just wish these people would learn to take people as they are and not be so short-sighted.

I hate prejudice too.

And the French. :mrgreen:

Im tempted to put Leo in for that joke, but instead Ill put prejudice in. *Pulls the over-sized lever*

Wat joke? :)

The one you stole and reworded from Austin Powers :P

Oh sure, like that joke wasnt already old when I was a kid and used it when I was 12 or so. No, it was Mike Myers that thought of it. Sure.

Besides, that joke works so well because there is a some truth in there.

ok, how about this one: Chauvinism is a French word, ever wonder why?

Guess what I would send in room 101. :)

Me?

If you wish to send some things in Leo, wait till Ive finished, THEN post up a list according to the rules, it can be ANYTHING AT ALL, but in the mean time, Ill complain about my 3rd choice.

Now, my thrid choice is a highly-distinqished actress and comedian, but when I see her, I think of her as just plain annoying and useless. This person is...
Caroline Quentin

Its difficult to really argue about her, but its also really difficult to defend her - I find it most hard to defend her due to an apperance on Have I Got News For You; this was early in its histroy, when Angus was host. At this time, Paul Merton was married to her, and Angus had been saying he was having an affiar.
On this episode, he introduced her, and she instantly said I was forced to sleep with Paul, but did I have to sleep with you Angus? UNFORGIVABLE! You should NEVER say that, to anyone if you have a boyfriend or a husband and I can tell why Paul looked so upset during the episode.
And seeing her do acting doesnt really help, as shes been type-cast as rather nasty, unfeeling, selfish individuals and she comes across like that in interviews. I believe that she shouldnt be typecast in these types of rolls, and also be confined into the Room.

But...I liked Men Behaving Badly! :sad:

I did too, and I liked Jonathan Creek - I just didnt like her.

Me?Last time I looked Pontefract is still not in France. :)

Would someone please rant about me?

Why do you want someone to rant about you?

I will...(consider it a substitute for the proper ranting I will do when my exams are sorted)

Mark Elam, a user on this forum, smells.

...

...is that good enough?

too short.

make it longer.

perhaps including my history in the FRA?

In the words of Reverend Paul Cuomo:

Mark had put himself among the great ast last...and then he plunged straight back down again!

:rofl:

Mark - go away from this thread, this forum, this side of reailty.

NO! Dont send him over to my side of reality!

Eh, I cant see any reason to keep her out of room 101.

*Pulls the lever, but Pauline Quirke is to big to go all the way through the trapdoor*

Ahem... Hopefully by the time Pauls next argument is ready, well have the trapdoor cleared. Hey, can someone pass the trapdoor clearence device?

*Is passed a very large mallet...*

WOOT! 2 of 3 in so far. I might not do so well on this one :proud:

My 4th choice to go in is a particular brand of clothing that is one of the golden oldies - dating back as far as the 60s - but to me, I believe that it is one of the most confusing items of dress ever.
Mini-Skirts

Befroe I start this rant, Im not a transvestite; I dont wear Mini-Skirts. My main issue with the clothing is that the people who wear them are woman with a lot of boyfirends (Im not sure the FRA will allow me to use the actual word :proud:) or are just plain nasty. It tends to be the former, but the latter makes it odd, as youd go up a girl in a pub or nightclub wearing a mini-skirt, and you go up them and say Can I buy you a drink? and they tend to go No! ***k off you pervert! and I think that if they dont want people to come up to them, put a pair of jeans on - and they are people who will greatly agree with me on this. And the other thing is they look so badly made. Theyre rarely made out of any good materail like lether or something else. Whenever I see them, they look like someone has taken a pair of jeans and cut the leg parts off, and it looks wrong - so wrong that people are resorting to wearing hot-pants instead - which is worse.

Please, do a lot of people who get confused a big favour by confining it into the room.

Yes, if you wonder what this bit is, its one of my own bits of complaining about modern words that annoy me. Its about this pervert thing - I was once called a stalker, and it was seriously wrong and vile and it was not my fault.

I was leaving my DT Class one day, and standing outside, just around the corner was a girl called Sofie, who I rather fancied (it was more of a crush, due to her annoying friends) and I went up and talked to her, and then suddenly her *ANNOYING* friends appeared, and made accusations that I stalked her home one night, even though at that time I was in school finishing off some homework. They then said I made her cry and stalked her around school and had sent perverse texts to her, when I only texted her once to ask her if she was doing anything on that day...theyre pathetic, and their stupidity p***** me off!

*wolf whistles*

I CAN wolf-whistle, but Im careful when and where I use it.

Why did you wolf-whistle?

I cant whistle at all :proud:

Is that one or two rants? Because Id be tempted to put both in personally...

no not miniskirts. your tarring my missus with the miniskirt rant and she dont deserve it. she wears miniskirts but looks nice and respectful

just for the record my missus is 22 and fit

Im just nominating Mini-Skirts out of my own experiences, not the wide a spectrum as youve stated Shane.

However, as much i would like to see Sofies irritating friends go down for the annoyance theyve caused me, I didnt nominate them and so they cant :sad:. But they can go in if Frank wishes :-)

(Message edited by paulc on May 03, 2008)

I cant put mini skirts in for two reasons.

1) Ive known several nice girls who wear mini-skirts, your experiences are down to bad luck.

2) Without miniskirts, the great Brittish tradition of the drag queen is in severe jeapordy.

Oh poot! Ah well 2 of 4, I may have more luck with my next choice

This is a movie genre that has become a big part of Hollywood and other film companies in bringing big money and big screams. Im talking of Creature Features, the common term for...
Horror Films with Animals

Now, whenever we see the plotline fora Horror Film with animals in, it encourages you to ask 3 major questions: What are the writers on? Is what theyre on legal? Has what theyre on even been created by God or by something madder than themselves?
It involves taking almost evey type of animal imagined, such as Sabre Tooth Tigers (this was in modern day England - WHAT ARE THEY ON? :mrgreen:), Anaconas, Aligatorsa and Sharks (obviously). But when it gets into areas like Sheep and Dogs and Mice and Frogs, then you go What the hell are you writing herew
?!

I own 2 dogs, and in real life, theyre lovely, friendly, pleasent animals - in a horror film, theyd be vicous, scary and would tear you apart!

And they exaggerate the effects of it all - Sheep dont kill people. Sharks cant rip a shark-proof cage - since the name Shark-proof cage.

And theyre everywhere - you just look at this link to get my point:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Natural_horror_filmshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categor...l_horror_films

After eading all of this, youll see why it must be confined to the room.

Sheep dont kill people, rappers do.

True, true. Im talking about the film Black Sheep (see the link)

I dont think that was intended to be serious...

Ive read the description of Black Sheep on Wiki... Im certain its a spoof. If its not, it looks so bad its actually good for a laugh:proud: I cant put this into room 101.

Whats the reason for not puting Horror Films with Animals into Room 101? But Ill first get going on my 6th choice.

This next choice ranks among one of the most annoying things ever, if we can remember what they are...
Forgetfulness

I often become forgetful, and it really annoys me when Im about to do something, and then I think What was I about to do? and I waste time trying to remember what youre doing and so things become extremely complicated for me as I struggle to remember what I was doing and what I was going to do. Its not a very sophisticated argument, but its one of the most annoying things in the world, especially if someone is doing a competition on this forum, and then we all forget it. Talking of which Frank, are you continuing with the Returners Tournument?

If you can find a reason to keep this out, Ill so amazed, Ill...Ive forgotten :mrgreen:

I forgot my reason for keeping animal horror films out... thefore, forgetfulness goes in!

*Pulls the giant lever*

lol... Good timing:proud:

Can I put Franks mysterious trousers into room 101?

If they will fit :proud:

You can nominate anything you wish David - you can go next if you wish.

But next up is my 7th choice - considered to be one of the best documentaries on TV,showing us the everyday lives of the people in Walford...thats right its...
EastEnders

When EastEnders as a concept was divised, it looked amazing, and the whole idea of focusinng on clans in a family and how they deal with things was fantastic, but the execution of it was just awful. Its dire, it has near to no life in it what-so-ever, and its always nearly the same kind of storyline - someone goes around Walford, and something will go wrong. Nothing ever goes right for them - and its now so samey, theres either an affair going on, or something is in love with someone and its all just crap.

And the other issue is it seems so badly written, and they put it on 4 days a week 52 weeks a year. Its so boring, and you get so many doses of it, it becomes dire!. Its not like The Street or Waterloo Road, which deal with similar issues, but make them so much more interesting, that Id rather watch ALL of Waterloo Road instead of 2 minutes of EastEnders.

Why is it that the people in EastEnders seem to have come from comedy. Mike Reid, Barbara Windsor, Samantha Janus, Jo Joyner - all of them are known for being in comedy, Jo Joyner even won a award for comedy! So why is it they appear in such a bad show.

Do me a favour, as well as my family, and put this in the room!

Can you put in Corrie as well Frank

I didnt read the argument, I just saw the word Eastenders. *Pulls the giant lever*
