101 "101 things" Barrowdowers would create
 
There has been an outgrowth of "101 things" threads in the Mirth world. They're fun. Unfortunately, I was in a weird mood last Friday, and was concurrently thinking of B-W's "Best 'Best' Thread." Hey! There's an idea!

That idea is to create a list of what new lists us Barrowdowners might contrive. I'll start, I guess.

~ 101 things Barrowdowners might almost posted but didn't on second thought.

~ 101 things Barrowdowners actually posted, but deleted on second thought.

~ 101 signs a Barrowdowner is stalking you.

~ 101 signs you have a crush on Sharkû - my sister Lhunardawen, on a shocking correspondence, revealed she had. :eek:

~ 101 things Denethor might do to a Trident-II D5 missile - hey, I must include one thing that involves a big explosion.

Having done my list, I pass the burden on to you. The thread is yours, guys.

This isn't the Quiz Room.

*sigh* Right.
