Ignoring the time I asked for Ultra Magnus and Galvatron for Christmasand announced, just before opening the presents, that I didn't want Ultra Magnus after all 'cos he was rubbish (only to discover it was indeed Ultra Magnus),
and ignoring the time I did a "momma" joke on a mate's girlfriend, whose mother had recently died after a long battle with cancer,
there was the thing the night before last when I told my missus that "no, no matter how much I love you there's no way I can possibly commit to moving halfway round the world to a country where I can neither speak nor read the language - it's just not going to work and we'd end up hating each other," and thus brought my very happy three and a half year relationship to a close.
I pretty much wanted the ground to swallow me up after that one. Hence current username...
