Crappy Prizes
Competitions, 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.

When i was nine
I came second in a 'be like Tarzan' competition at a scummy kids club in Prestatyn, Wales.
I had to scream like Tarzan, then make chimp like noises, flex my nine year old biceps, and then dance to some crappy mini-pops song.
In a pair of red Speedos.
I won a stupid plastic snake and a leopard skin print headband.
sigh - shakes head and hangs it in shame
