Desperate TimesStranded in a hotel in an African war zone with no internet access for two weeks, I was forced to resort to desperate measures. Possessing only my passport and the clothes I stood up in; and the warning "You can catch it shaking hands with a vicar out there" ringing in my ears, I had to draw my own porn in order to preserve my sanity.
Alas, it all came out looking like Coronation Street's Audrey Roberts, but, as they say, any port in a storm.
What have you done in times of great desperation?

How I almost became a smokerI'm not ordinarily the kind of person who gets particularly antsy about anything; never having been (to my recollection) particularly desperate for anything - I'm far too lazy to get worked up - I'll probably be fairly quiet for this QOTW.
But there's one exception.
One night when in my teens, I dreamt that I was a smoker. I am not, and never have been. But for about a fortnight afterwards, it took every ounce of moral strength I had not to run to the shop to buy and then chain smoke 20 B&H. I was completely, mind-spazzingly, desperate for a fag.
Apologies for lack of wit - more funny peculiar than funny ha-ha.

its a conspiracyMaybe you were a smoker and simply had hypnotherapy which made you forget a bit like in that movie eternal happiness of the spotless mind. You should sit all your friends down an tell them that whatever the company paid them for their silence you'll double it just to get to the goddamn truth.

I had the very same thing happen to me!I am a smoker but never do anything harder, apart from the the odd spliff in my teens. One night, however, i dreamt i was in the Arches with my mates and buckled under peer pressure to take an 'E' . I dreamt i was fleeing oot ma tits! I've never taken it in real life and never been tempted. It was the best dream i've ever had though! Apart from the ones involving Alicia Silverstone or Scotland beating Italy on Saturday!

I once dreamt......that cigars tasted like particularly rich dark chocolate, and they were lovely to smoke. Took a while to kill that temptation.

Sausages!I love sausages (stop it! - food!)
long before ever smoking, I dreamed that cigarettes would taste nice and meaty, just like one of walls finest pork and beef.
very very tempted, but resisted - took a lot of will power tho!!
