Crappy PrizesCompetitions, raffles, give-aways... sure the prizes look great, but don't they always turn out a bit crap should you happen to win them?
The last raffle I bought tickets for, they'd just given away the all-expenses paid weekend in New York when my number came up. Rushing up to find out what I'd won, I was a little disappointed to be handed a box of "Biscuits for Cheese". Especially as they were busy serving the cheese course (complete with biscuits) as they drew the raffle.

In our teens this kid used to hang around.He was quite a bit younger than us and a lot smaller but he was very sharp and frequently made us laugh. I remember the time he challenged a mate to a "softest punch competition". He let the other guy go first and, slightly bemused, this guy hit him very gentley. The young guy them punched him as hard as he could, already shouting "You win! You win!"
