» Lies I told on my CV
Not on my CV, but on the CV of someone I was interviewing
I sometimes get involved in recruitment at my company and on this occasion I was interviewing a guy who had listed "Grappling" (which incidentally when I was at school was a euphemism for wanking) as one of his interests.
So i asked him "You've listed Grappling as one of your interests, can you tell me a bit about what that is?"
He looked me square in the eye and said "I don't talk about Grappling"
Cue uncomfortable silence.....
Not wanting to lose face I carried on "Well, as you've listed it as an interest, has no one ever asked you about it before?"
Again he just stared at me and said "No, never."
I was baffled, but I offered him the job anyway as I didn't like the prick he would be working for.
6 months later he was sacked for attacking said prick (presumably with some sort of Grappling move). I'm sure there's a moral there somewhere - probably don't let me interview for positions in your team.

Porridge Dark
Two of my mates (who incidentally are brothers) used to share a room as kids and used to indulge in a game known as "Porridge Dark" after lights out.
The game, it seems, involved wrestling wearing only underpants until one or the other party submitted.
I can understand the wrestling - as most young lads enjoy a good fight, especially with their brothers. I could even accept the wearing only of pants in those halcyon days of innocence.
What does not sit well with me is the chosen name for the game "Porridge Dark" and the connotations it carries. How the name came about is something which has never been adequately explained - when questioned, a direct answer is normally avoided with a rapid change of subject. I can't help but feel that there were some other elements of the game which have not yet been revealed - ones which perhaps the brothers don't feel comfortable sharing with the group. Probably involving cocks, arse holes and jizz I'll warrant :-).
