Messing with people's heads
Theophilous Thunderwulf says: What have you done to fuck with people? Was it a long, carefully planned piece of psychological warfare, or do you favour quick, off-the-cuff comments that confuse the terminally gullible? Have you been dicked with, and only realised many years later? Are you being dicked right now? Tell us everything.

Bruising the cucumber
I've been blessed with an incredibly dumb sister-in-law. She enjoys bragging about her Honours English degree, even though my wife and I wrote all the coursework for her first three years of university. She couldn't write a coherent sentence to save her life. She's taken up with a posh young man who has even posher parents, so she's decided to cultuivate a taste for Pimm's. Pimm's is not a popular drink in Canada, so one fatefull afternoon while we were lounging around in the back yard, she offered to mix us up a couple of cocktails. I took a sip of miine and politely asked if she had bruised the cucumber. Her face became even more vacant than usual.
'Bruise the Cucumber? she asked.
'Yes' I said 'Bruising the cucumber releases oils that bring out the full the flavour of the drink. A cucumber for Pimm's is tradiionally bruised.'
'Oh', she said 'I didn't know that.'
An hour later I found her in the kitchen studiously thumping a cucumber on the counter. I had to leave the room before I began to giggle uncontrollably. Everyone, including her boyfriend, has been sworn to secrecy in hopes that one day she'll be caught thumping a cucumber by her oh-so posh Pimm's swilling boyfriend's parents.

"Pimm's is not a popular drink in Canada"
I knew there would be a good reason to dislike Canadians.
