Into Room 101, I would put:
1. Faith, (covers Religon, other cults and pseudoscientific faiths such as 'The Secret' And 'Astrology'. Also dowsing actually
)
2. really, really, old people in cars going 'round corners really slowly.
3. Annoying pricks.
4. The people who refuse to make any new 'old style games' and make it work. Or who don't ever make as great FPS single player level design. With all the brilliant classic puzzles and keys. And what 'HeXen' revolutionized (at least for me) with the 'hub' system and choice of multiple characters in an FPS. I'm not blaming people for not doing this, things move on its understandable. Bit it pisses me off that noone makes and great single player puzzly mode in FPS like they used to. And also I miss the old style point and click adventures! And some of the old platformers/side scrollers! It seems as though there was much more variety before. At least RTS and 'fighters' (tekken, dead or alive etc) have survived! If not it would be very sorry if all there was, was new style FPS and RPGS! Oh dear! The new style FPS (halo and aftewards) is brilliant don't get me wrong. But imo they're multiplayer games. I think the old shooters kick the crap out of them single player. Much more puzzly. And also lots of enemies that you can kill in 1 shot with shotguns or just a few chaingun or pistol or whatever shots! Swarms of them! Rather than just a few enemies (in comparison with the old shooters) that you have to shoot repeatedly and it gets boring. I like New FPS for multiplayer but old for single.
5. People who aren't at least reasonbly nerdy. People who act like its cool to not read books or play computer games 'too much' and uncool to be nerdy. Hey if its nerdy to have a lot more fun than the people who aren't gaming/making music/reading great books! Then I'm nerdy! They're missing out a lot and apparently these people who are 'completely non-nerds' are quite boring. All the coolest people I know are nerdy and like computer games. But hey maybe thats because I'm a nerd.
But nerd is more a negative word for 'Geek', I prefer geek, geeks are cool lol.
6. Comedies that people find funny and are really popular, (friends or whatever) but if they actually looked around for a bit or were less secluded, or actually understood witty comedy...basically they just don't seem to understand how much better comedy can be. I mean I even saw this 'friends' episode when one of them had a turkey on their head ( I saw it years and years ago when friends was pretty much new, so I can't remember who), and Mr. Bean had already done that before, and it was way way way way, way way way way better done.
Here's a clip to go with this last 1 ('6.'), Hugh Laurie on friends:
