I know you did the right thing with 50 shades...I'm one of those who slag it without ever having read/seen it.
But I loathe the whole premise and the effect it seems to have on its fans

Ha... aww! You could always just get one of those wi-fi extender boxes!
Yes, I really need one. Thing is I only learned about that about three days ago and it was too late by then to order one which would arrive on time. So corridor it is. With my entire PC, screen, mouse, keyboard etc. :D

Huh... it's not a common item at all in any electronics sections of stores there? Maybe for next week!

When you're doing jury service and you try and deduce your fellow jurors to see if any of them are having tea and biscuits together and if so, who had the wafer.

When one of the school kids glances at your wrist band and says: I bet that says I am Sherlock.

I just laughed out loud at my TV.

There was a guy who was setting a table and cooking for 3 other famous people (yeah, I know crap telly...) and he literally went on Youtube to learn how to fold serviettes and folded them EXACTLY like Sherlock did in TSo3.

What are the odds?

LOL!

besleybean · January 13, 2017 5:45 pm

We have shows like that over here, I have to say I like them!

When you log into a chat room you haven't been logged into for... years?? and someone immediately goes "OMG. Kitty? Who's way too into Sherlock?"

Ooops.

besleybean · January 21, 2017 6:02 pm

What do they mean 'way too into', is that even possible?!

As for me:
I'm watching a documentary about Afghanistan, called The Great Game. Apparently the term was coined by Rudyard Kipling. I assume Mark is familiar with this.

If this isn't done on purpose to look like Sherlock, then I don't know what to say anymore:

Well, I don't know what to say to this anyway.

The description is just like Sherlock - extremely clever, eccentric, help the police with unsolvable murders). But if you don't understand German, the picture at the top should be enough to see the similarities.

when you talk fast and to the point just like Sherlock with everyone

besleybean · January 30, 2017 6:25 am

...when you open a thread on one of you facebook groups and smile at the title: what do you think about donating your body to science?

This Is The Phantom Lady · January 30, 2017 6:59 am

Oh that's a good one! And of course Mycroft would!

It's a thing I've considered myself...

besleybean · January 30, 2017 7:00 am

I would like to, as well.
But I still laugh every time I think of Moriarty's: 'cannibals would be more grateful' thing!

*giggles*

When you go to a special screening of an episode and when they are showing trivia questions on the screen before and you are the only person in your group to realize one of the questions is WRONG.

At my showing of TFP this question was shown.

"What ringtone was on Moriarty's phone when he and Sherlock confronted each other at the end of The Blind Banker."

EXCUSE ME?!?!?! Someone was not paying attention.

Lis · January 30, 2017 1:33 pm

Haha, oops!

That's all kinds of wrong!

ewige · January 30, 2017 1:52 pm

Oh maybe there is an alternative version...

Lis · January 30, 2017 4:30 pm

Haha, oh no not another "secret episode"

This Is The Phantom Lady · January 30, 2017 5:39 pm

Oooops!!!
