What would you put in Room 101?

@Someone

I can’t remember that someone has hold the door for me . Every time I am the one who is holding the door for others… Has someone made a similar experience or does this happen just me?

Aww

@milanfahrnholz

All of those have happened to me so often. I always hold doors. The chance of people saying “Thank You” is like 25% at best and when they do it is more often than not with a slight tone of surprise. And I´ve often had doors fall flat into my face because I expected more of others.

Exactly! Once my mum challenged someone for not saying thank you, and they claimed they had a sore throat

@Sushi

people who gesture you should go first while you are holding the door to let them pass first

Why, people why?! It’s like people just don’t understand the rules!

@Ema

In my experience people who don’t thank are either elderly people who are angry with the world, or young girls who think ignoring men is part of the normal behaviour

Or, the people who act like it’s their God-given right to have doors held open for them, and so they don’t need to say thank you. I hate that attitude.

@Ema

I always wonder: if I’m the only to do this, what does normally happens when those people meet each other? They simply bump into each other?

I think that sometimes, too. Once I tested it and someone walked right into me. They looked absolutely stunned, like something extraordinary had happened.

Well, you must admit that’s a genius prompt answer.

Only if delivered like “…screech [whispering] soar… throat [cough]”

[PiecesOfKate]

Though if my mum detected a typo in her voice she probably would’ve lamped her.

[Frenzie]

It’s not a typo. If you have a case of soar throat, things like this happen unintentionally:

Aye.

Four more of your precious characters

[milanfahrnholz]

Want me to read a fairytale?

[PiecesOfKate]

Hee, yes please will you read it from a giant armchair, too?

[milanfahrnholz]

If I had one, I would probably film myself doing it. Also the book would have to be huge and old and worn looking.

[PiecesOfKate]

I could totally hear you doing that skit.

‘Pig 2 - same story.’

[milanfahrnholz]

I don´t know, I´m not confident enough with my Walken.

Enough now discourse!

Pins and needles

[tasse-tee]

I hate those too

[PiecesOfKate]

Mind you, not as bad as cramp. I’m sure that’ll end up in here too.

@PiecesOfKate

Pins and needles

I first thought “needles and pins” (the objects, not the song)
But then because @tasse-tee said me too, I was thinking it might be a female only thing… but my friend google taught me something new today, again!
I think I have that one too, on and off in periods, when I make a certain head movement and bam! from the neck up until my hair roots. Feels like my head’s burning on the inside… and it takes like 1 minute for the feeling to fade.

[tasse-tee]

When I get pins and needles, it’s usually in my feet.

@Sushi

I was thinking it might be a female only thing

No, that’s one kind of “cramps”

Oh, ouch! I’ve never had it like that. It’s like a numb, prickly feeling, caused by cutting of a bit of blood supply. So usually when I’ve been sitting on my foot, or sleeping on my arm, or like today when my foot got wedged between two others on the train (sitting down, but they had big feet).
