Come on then folks, just what would you banish to room 101? Discuss...
Mine would be the following -
People with no manners and in particular people who don't even say thank you for holding the door open for them. In fact any recognition from them at all, even a grunt would be better than to be totally ignored. I am frequently left open mouthed in shock as some Burberry sporting, beer gut revealing, chain smoking woman (and yes I'm afraid to say that women are far more guilty of this misdemeanor than men) and her unfortunate offspring brush past me without acknowledgement.
Chris Moyles. This is one annoying, smug, narcisistic, talentless, potato faced, self congratulating, vacuous neanderthal king of Chav.
Noisy Eaters!! I don't know why this gets on my tits so much but it does. How hard is it to close your mouth while you are eating? If somebody is sitting next to me munching away like a pig, i can feel myself boiling up.

I'm one of those who gives their seat up on buses, though you look pretty stupid if the rest of the bus is empty. I recommend you wait till it's full. I also hold doors open for people, 'cos I think it's polite. I'm not looking for a big thank-you, just a nod of the head, some small acknowledgement, as Frank says, for the courtesy.
I have become a 'mutterer'. A loud one. A favourite is "Don't mention it." and then if they look up I add "Oh you didn't ". It achieves nothing but it makes me feel better.
Room 101?
I don't think I'd put anything in. I'm fairly easy-going really.
Oh, unless I was having an off day, then Religionists of every order - they'd go in.
