The best / worst day of my life...

We’ve all had a day when nothing went wrong for a change. What happened with you?

Alternatively, what about your worst day ever?, when fate threw up on on your duvet before administering a cheeky wedgie?

Extreme drug experiences
My first week at college me and my mates got hold of a bunch of mushies, I had a baggy of 200 meself. We arranged to eat them then meet up later.

So I was sitting there, a mushy virgin, thinkin... 'how many should I take???' Hmm.. 20 sounds good! 15 mins later nuthin happening. Take another 20. 15 mins later, nuthin! So to cut a long story short, my logic being: "hey you can just pick em in a field, how strong can the be" I necked the lot. In hindsight this was rather a lot.

One vivid memory among many is being unable to both walk and carry a bag. It was all just too much to handle. My mates said "we're heading to Mark's place, you carry this" and I nearly burst into tears with the sheer daunting impossibility of both walking and carrying something and just stood there in the street frozen with bewilderment.

What crazy student (or mature abuser) druggy stories do you have

Medical tales
Bones breaking, skin diseases, unfortunate enemas, clumsy proctologists, speeding paramedics, amazing rescues using some gaffer tape and a bic. Plenty of scope for good, bad and downright scary stories.

Overseen and Overheard
We've had a few threads about being caught doing embarrassing things... but what about the other end of the stick? What have you overseen or overheard as you went about your daily business?

(Example: On my walk through the local park I saw a woman decked in tweed and pearls shouting at her henpecked-looking husband. His crime? He was calling for their dog, "Harry! Harry!"
"Noooo," she screeched, "His name is Harold Whippet the Third! Why must you always call him Harry?" No sign of the fucking dog in all this.)

( mictoboy, Sun 6 May 2012, 22:50, Reply)

your choice
There are a lot of closed questions that I bet a lot of people feel they missed. So my suggestion is that anyone can put an answer to any closed question.
Either that or something involving traveling in foreign countries. Did we do that? Or Part 2 of customers from hell. I thought that one was really funny. Option 4: Times you've wasted money in terrible ways.

Weddings part 2
I was at a wedding this weekend, and everything went to plan. Since it has been getting on for seven years since the last weddings QTOW I think its time for the newer members to tell tales of when things didn't go so well.

Stuff you think is really clever
I will use Jimi Hendrix as an example, for street cred, but actually I think he's shite, and the thing I think is really clever is a differential.
