100% of fact....
A friend of mine found an article in The Times a few years ago about some sort of kiddie pron ring. It was a hard hitting article that was also rather moving, examining the situation from all sides and putting across the victims point of view very factually.
Unfortunately the impact of the article was totally lost when we saw that the reporter's name was Roger Boyes.

» Irrational Fears
Odd...
No. 1
Friend arranged for a bunch of mates to go to a rugby match, all OK you might say... but no.
One of the group didn't mentioned their irrational fear, not of crowds or bug burly blokes or even bone-crunching violence but, most bizarrely, flags. What with the corner flags and the big Union Jack on the roof of the stand opposite he was a pretty unhappy puppy. Poor bugger spent the whole time gripping on to his girlfriend and had to leave before the end of the match.
Apparently the fear gets worse when the wind gets up and they start flapping about.
Never found out why though.
No 2
Mrs Bob has a phobia of wooden spoons, can't touch 'em, has to use the dishcloth to hold them when cooking. Multiply the fear tenfold when wet...(the spoon, not her).

» World's Most Hated Food
The filth that is...
'All Day Breakfast' in a tin.
A poor excuse for food and in no way a substitute for a proper fry-up.
I don't know how the bods at Heinz can hold their heads high after hoisting this pile of shite onto us.

» Lies Your Parents Told You
Not strictly lies...
Poor Mrs Bob, her mum was constantly using made up and mispronounced words instead of the real ones when she was in her formative years, leading to confusion in later life. Obviously this would have caused her considerable gip at school and still on occasion I hear the odd random word pop out; bless.
Examples:
legwarmers = satsumas
washing basket = tumbler
chimley
amblumps
skelington etc, etc

» Dad Jokes
Most notorious dad joke...
During every christmas dinner this little gem used to get trotted out.
Q: What's the difference between Bing Crosby and Walt Disney?
A: Bing sings but Walt dis'nay.
Obviously helps if said in a Scottish accent which he failed to do.
Regular as clockwork my aunt used to pipe up that she didn't get it and everyone refused to explain it. This led to numerous repeats of the same joke every year.
*joy*
