Worst:1. That pole for the living room. Seemed a good idea when my ex was living here, now she's gone it's just in the way.
2. After my girlfriend left me I got a bit upset and stormed out of work for a cigarette.
3. Met her in a pub in Kensington, shocked by how fat she was.

whisky should be drunk at room temperatureIce kills the taste. Seeing as you should be enjoying the taste, ice in there is just plain wrong.

1 - Best - Managed to get 16GB USB drive for £6Silliest - Entire series of Father Ted, £40 for a series I'm not really that much of a fan of.
2 - This week is pretty bad already, but any of the last 6 months, I'd say. Lead up to Christmas was a fucking nightmare. Best week was 27th-31st of January, because I was off.
3 - Never been on a date in my life, unless you're counting going out with a partner?

Hmmm1. I bought a pair of those Vibram Fivefingers shoes. Count's as both I reckon.
2. Dunno. It's work, kind of a monotonous background.
3. Worst - Been chatting for only a few minutes when she gestures towards a guy who just walked in and says,
"I don't like him."
"Uh... why?"
"He got me pregnant and wouldn't pay for the abortion."
"Oh."

Yes.If you subscribe to the theory behind it, that is. Which seems to have some science to it. Massively padded running shoes increase joint problems rather than reduce them since your legs and feet have evolved to run without it.

3.. I planned to go on a date but she had to carry on working for a couple of hours. So I was on my own and thought it would be a great idea to go off and have 2 hours of Irish drinking (guiness with black bush chasers) turned up again for utterly shitfaced and was binned off. Found out a few years later that she did fancy me and I would have had quite a night if I hadn't been a drunken twat.

1. 15 big boxes of Seabrooks crisps - someone from here told me they were amazing, never had one before, so bought 15 boxes containing every flavour (some boxes had more than one flavour). I think I ate about 5 _packets_ myself. My stoned mates loved it though. Or possibly when I bought 5kilos of out of data out-of-date 'glow-worms' sweats, thinking "1kg of sweats isn't _that_ big", gave them all to work.
2. When I was about 16, a server blew up containing the only copy of about a years worth of tedious data gathering that was all manually created.
3. I'm just so gosh darn greatful for a date that I don't think i've had a bad one.
