This is a question Claims to Fame

Rob writes, "My photoshop claim to fame: the way the crop tool greys out the rest of the image? That was my idea. I sent it to the Abobe features request thing back in ooh probably about 1998. (After spending a frustrating day cropping images for a dull
website, and wishing the tool worked better.)"

What crappy claims to fame can you make?

Celebrity suicide
Went to London with some mates about 1986. Whilst on a tube train my mate told me the guy opposite was in the TV show 'Howards Way'. I asked the man in question if it was true. He visibly grew in stature, puffed out his chest and said that yes, it was he. "It's a pile of shite!" I proclaimed, and suggested he get a real job. A few weeks later he commited suicide...

Went to the Klubfoot Psychobilly nights at the Clarendon in London. Saw the guy who originally played Mark Fowler in Eastenders. Had a drink and a chat with him before realising what a miserable, sour-faced fecker he was. Told him he should be thankful to have a job in TV rather than having to really work for a living. A few weeks later he committed suicide...

Bin desperately trying to bump into Anthea Turner...

Oh yeah, my brother in law and his mate met Matthew Kelly in the bar of a hotel they were staying in (back in the days when he was on Game For A Laugh) and after a few drinks he invited them up to his room where he proceeded to try to entice them to all get in the bath together. They ran off.
