toilet paper. lint. socks. refrigerators. carpet.

Perhaps I should say "seemingly" banal subjects?

Whatever happened to all the refrigerator shots? Time was, it seemed every challenge someone had put their camera in the back of their fridge ...

Toilet paper is more anal than banal. :)

isn't anal retentive just another word for constipation?

Hmmm... I dunno. Are you making another challenge suggestion? ;-)

No, it's a term from psychology, not gastro-enterology.

There's your challenge topic: one word ΓΆ€” "Uptight!" I'd LOVE to see the shots that come out of that one. No challenge description, just the title.

An Uptight challenge could be interesting. But why no description? When we let everybody go their own way, as this would do, it becomes more of a contest to see who can produce the most popular interpretation instead of who can produce the best photograph.

Just my two cents.

To avoid the uptight threads complaining about the description. ;oP

With no description it will allow us at DPC a chance to debate the crap out of it and start numerous threads about the same thing. So, how many DCP'ers does it take to change a light bulb???

edit: btw here's your 1 cent change.

None. We debate it for so long someone has already done it for us.

Exactly my (facetious) point; let all the uptight souls have a field day debating it. Hog heaven. Besides, how could you narrow down "uptight" anyway? Lawd, folks, think of the possibilities here!
