Because people tend towards stupid [seriously, check the science, or the Darwin awards], we need warnings in life… but also because people tend towards silly [check out Crocs, seriously stop that!] some of those warnings might be a little bit different. We decided to explore that a little bit in our latest Hashtagging game…

[The Story So Far: Every Wednesday at 12 noon South African time [6 am EDT] an inspired and growing number of brilliant, creative and absolutely fun people from all around the world take part in what is called a Hashtag game. @AFrikkinHashtag [say it out loud] is South Africa’s #1 Hashtag game and is always a lot of fun. The F.L.O.P. [or Fish List Of Prizeworthyness] is the collection of some of the best tweets from each week’s game and is what all seriously comedic Hashtaggers aspire to…]

With Mark aka @westy2112 in the co-pilots seat [#Disclaimer: not an actual seat] we jumped right in and sent out some adverts and some examples:

Two of our mostest favouritest bots swung by to show they care:

As of course did all of you and there really were some unbelievably amazing tweets for this game and we surely didn’t even catch them all [this isn’t Pokemon Go, yo!] but we did catch a whole lot of the ones we thought were great, and they collectively make up this week’s

FISH LIST OF PRIZEWORTHYNESS [F.L.O.P.]

We have to say that Stephen pretty much nailed this tag on the head:

While Jimish may have stumbled upon a Twilight Sign:

Luke spoke some truth:

While Klorine was feeling a little mischievous #DoNotTryThisOneAtPhone:

You probably don’t want to try the burgers at Cone’s house for a little while #TastesLikePlastic:

While Yaron was concerned that the suds were making the floor a little too slippery to manoever:

With a rare second appearance for K Dawg on the charts i am starting to smell a rat:

While Sid believed firmly in reverse psych-car-logy:

Maybe Pile maybe had something with this one:

While Doogie had been watching too much of that early George Clooney classic:

This sign pretty much says what it is:

While Danny was feeling the mixed messages:

Mike was protecting himself from the Danger Hole:

Sourpuss was on the lookout:

Warren was wondering did they maybe leave the U out? Is that you, Doug?

Barry discovered an emotionally unstable appliance:

Abed however, was on the prowl:

By the time you read the right sign you’re already lost:

Richard found a sign with some plastic surgery enhancement:

While Pat was wondering if this parenting thing was really for him:

YBF revealed a shocking plot twist:

While Sam was keeping EVERYONE at bay:

While Aricka’s is both so great and so awful at once:

Mackmillian was feeling stumped:

This has already been mentioned but actually we cannot say it enough:

Is it a bird, is it a plane, no it’s a…. baboon???

While Snoopy snuck in late for some classy Pun Points:

So a lot of great and unusual and hilarious signs and thanks to everyone who played. There were a lot of good ones. But there were also a fair bunch of great ones. With the longest Top F.L.O.P.s list we’ve had for a while, here is:

This Week’s F.L.O.P. TWELVE:

[12] Verbal D caught this one:

[11] Darren’s posed the question, ‘How many times did this happen in real life before they had to come up with a warning label?’

[10] This Crouching Ninja, Falling Old man clip from Abed is an instant classic:

[9] We enjoyed how specific V’s sign was:

[8] While this series was on a much contentious issue

[5] This one is sure to make Tali the Laughing Stock…

[4] DM had us with this one [is it perhaps because they can see you’re nuts/your nuts?]

[3] While Dan was gunning for the cool crowd:

[2] Wally brought us the most extreme of Danger signs:

[1] But the absolute winner this week was Santa’s Cat or more importantly the people who came up with this winner:

Well done everybody. Thanks for the smiles and the silent chuckles and even an actual live LOL that may have snuck out – we enjoy playing with you and hope to see you the next time.

In the meantime let’s keep the WIT in the Twitterer as we give a special shout-out to Mark and The UnNamed Ones and special mention to Cattsy who provided us with The UnNamed Ones logo we’ve been using which we’ve absolutely loved and the @HashtagRoundup app which keeps telling us who is playing what when.

Have yourselves a very Merry Christmas [and one way to do that might be to check out this list of Amazing Christmas Songs discovered by the self-proclaimed grinch of Christmas songs [who knew there could be rocking Christmas songs? Check them out!] and take some time to make it a good one for someone who might be alone or sad or lonely.

love brett “Fish” and the UnNamed Ones crew…
