I'd put in:

- Comic Sans MS
World's most over-used and annoying font

- The 'C' in ICT
There's no communication involved. ICT usually involved party invitations and tony blair.

- MSN Profiles
Rubbish usually filled with the inane ramblings of the illiterate. And I quote:

Quote: "Bein wiv my best mates; Lauren Brooke n Rachael they r the bestest o and ollie hes the coolest!! : ) i"


Nuff said.

Your ideas? (I could probably think of better things in time)

Oh, and overuse of Dilbertisms would go into my 101.

Haha - that sign is great.

On the office website they have an interactive map of the trading estate

M4? Is that the one with that bus lane? On top gear they have a webcam showing the bus lane, and whenever they cross live to it it's never being used.

Yeah, I've seen that. Think it's nearer London. Still a s**te road though.

Interactive map? Hmmm. Will have to have a look. If you are interested we are next to the O2 building, up the road from Greggs sandwich bar, and quite near the Mars factory. After working there for a few years now I really hate the smell of Mars bars sometimes (they really stink some days).

Erm, have you seen Room 101? It's basically all the stuff you hate, not what would happen to them in Room 101. Think of it as an eraser. ie. anything you put in it ceases to exist.

Nothing wrong with Mortal Kombat (MK 2 was a bit dodgy though). Haven't seen AvP yet, so I will reserve judgement.

Sadly, I'd have to agree.

I'd shove good, old Microsoft and all their overpriced, buggy software (except QuickBasic, the one thing they did right) in there.

I would put in the program room 101. Getting a bit annoying now, and Merton really gets on your tits after a while.

Somebody already said it, but I would second reality TV, starting with big brother. Grief, what a load of crap. Ditch it all I say, and bring back some decent (pref. sci fi) TV.

Is room 101 large enough to hold all the spammers, virus writers, and mal-ware authors?

Of course. But if it's like the program then you only get 4 or 5 choices. Personally I would say Slough 5 times, just incase it was overlooked the first time.

Anybody wishing to defend Slough (you may live there), then get a dictionary, or go to dictionary.com and type in Slough. Yes indeedy.... it's an old word methinks, so they must have meant to call it that. Not like being called Dick at all (ie. rude word came later).
