Battered wonders, "What amazing stuff have you got up to with Lego?" Or just tell us about the time you got a Lego brick stuck up your privates.
All people referring to 'Legos' will be shot at down. Or dawn. Your choice.

Or if you get into technical Lego kits it turns you into a neck beard shut in.

One day, near the the breakup of term before Christmas he was seen getting into a car with a bloke no-one had seen before. It must have been an uncle who was asking him what he wanted as a Christmas present as all he was shouting was 'LEGO! LEGO! LEGO! at the top of his voice and he'd got himself so excited that there were tears on his face and his uncle was having to manually lift him into the car.
He must have moved to a different school after the holidays because we never saw him again after that day.

I made my Mrs a robot once, built around an RCX box.
Using a Lego remote control, it had 4 wheel drive, could spin inside it's own radius and the C chanel made it wiggle its eyebrows.
Have built a functioning 4 speed gearbox, also by drilling out the centre of a large gearwheel and using other parts, made a rather bulky but perfectly functional differential. It used to explode if you put too much torque through it, but it was quite satisfying.
Am planning to pass it all on to my 3 year old son at some stage, but all the rubber insulation on the electrical connector cables I have has started perishing. Not sure if I will be able to replace or repair it by the time he's old enough.
I worked out I have over the years spent about £3,000 on it.
TL;DR - fuck Meccano.

It's a back-of-a-fag-packet calculation estimating that by 2019 Lego mini-figures will outnumber people. Considering there are a few hundred of the little buggers in my kitchen alone, this seems quite conservative :/

Long story short, I pissed in my own mouth.

so off we Lewent. It all started when he said she was a bit of a Legoer, so we took the ferry to France and took our chances with the French road system and its myriad signs for Lestop and Lego. So hair-raising was it that I caught myself whispering a prayer to the HoLegost.
I have to stop now as I'm feeling a rising urge to hack off my own head with a spatula.

He took two large flat yellow pieces and stuck them together, one directly on top of the other and held it out with a big grin on his face, like he'd created a full scale replica of the Taj Mahal.
"What's that?" asked his grandmother.
"A sandpit!" He excitedly replied.

I suppose he had created a lego suppository, but that's about all I've got in terms of genuine stories.

(Yes, I know it's lame.)
Look, I know you can make some wonderful things with Lego. But build a good QOTW question with it? I'm sceptical...

"Lego of me" I shouted as I squirmed and managed to wriggle free.

Anyhoo so last week I took a young lady to see a classic cinema screening of The Terminator and after it had finished I went to get a drink with her and I thought it'd be funny to confess to her that I'd never had a girlfriend before you see it had worked in the film Kyle Reese the time-travelling virgin still got to bang Sarah after spilling the beans but it turns out that in real life you don't get that kind of sympathy and the young lady went away disgusted and OH GOD I'M SO ALONE
