Image Challenge suggestions
We think a good challenge idea is like the opening line of a joke, say "If ads told the truth... Guinness would say 'It makes you fat, and your shit turn black.'"
Maybe you have other ideas.
We're going to leave this thread open, so feel free to add ideas at any time. BTW: Please use the "i like this" button. Your voting really helps the good ideas bubble-up, and the very best will be used in the Image Challenge itself.

The stories behind weird named objects/phrases - why is it called a parson's nose?
A chance for B3tans to invent the story behind the name, the odd stuff that we take for granted in our language.
Eg: the parson's nose is the arse of a chicken - did a parson have his face in the crotch of a chicken so frequently that people started to call it the parson's nose...?
What other phrases or terms can be explained B3ta style. What about toffee nosed? or when something peters out? What's a pipe dream? Does anyone know what codswallop is?
Here's some other odd phrases: www.phrases.org.uk/a-phrase-a-week/index.html
