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 Sharkū - my sister Lhunardawen, on a shocking correspondence, revealed she had.  ~ 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.

101 things that an intelligent BDer would never let happen to him/her-self (i.e., watch the LotR movies and never read the LotR books, therefore forming a biased opinion; post in one thread and one thread only, etc.)
