![This is a question](/images/board_posticon.gif)
Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

One of my cats managed to launch himself through a closed window last night, lacerating his neck and leg. Daft fucker. He's fine though - stitched and bandaged, but seriously what kind of fuckwitted animal runs headfirst into a windowpane??
So, tell us your stories of silly things your pets have done.

my late friend, richard hughes, was a legend... my fave drunken tale of his related to when he was at a conference in cardiff, he was staying in the student dorm - not sure why, it's what was on offer... to cut a long story short, he pulled a welsh bird and took her back to his room - and there was no toilet, just a hand basin. richard needed go toilet - number 2's - he couldn't be arsed to go down the corridor to the communal loo. so, great romantic that he was and not wanting to spoil the mood, he hopped on the basin and shat in there. but what of the smell? no flush? pah, this was richard hughes - drunken casanova!!! he took his toothbrush and used it to force his stool down the sink and rinsed - then shagged the welsh bird. personally i think it says more about the welsh bird than richard but maybe that's just me???
anyway, what's the grossest thing you've done in front of a prospective partner but not put them off?

A work colleague recently lost her husband. On her first day back at work I recalled she told me once that her dearly departed was alergic to cats. So, being a prized plum, I said: "Now you can get that cat you always wanted." Silence. Strange thing was, I was being sincere. Please share your tales of diplomacy faliure; extra bonus points for crying widows...

Dogs - man's best friend. Always getting you in to trouble or embarrassing you.....
E.g......
I was at a party sitting in the garden drinking and chatting with the hostess when one of her two Dachshunds wandered over and did a crap right in front of my feet, about a foot away in fact. She was extremely embarrassed and some people started laughing and a few people felt a bit ill. Then, about 30 seconds later the 2nd Dachshund came over, took one sniff and then ate the fresh turd. She was literally speechless and the whole garden was either laughing hysterically or feeling sick, or both.

Right after sex.

on Monday evening and it slipped my mind until now.
When did you last stick it to THE MAN? Have you had a satisfying win exercising your consumer rights against a large company? Have you had a parking ticket overturned becuase they flouted the rules? Have you spawned a mass boycott of a large retail chain because of their draconian approach to customer service?
You get the idea. The more 'Power to the People' the better.

...me and my missus saw some 30-something fat (by fat I means f*cking huge, not tubby) bloke pawing mindlessly at the ground trying desperately to pick up the sweets he had dropped, whimpering like a dog stuck behind a fence while you have a bbq and munch out on a juicy steak on the other side. His hands were too big to pick up the tiny little sweets. People were laughing.
So.
Seen anyone FAT doing silly things in public?

After imbibing alcohol, a lot of us have ideas to solve the world's problems.
In a pub recently, a mate and I were discussing overcrowding on Earth. We came up with migrating to the sea-bed. Clever engineers would build very strong transparent walls along every coastline and then the sea would be pumped into the cavities so the sea and the land swap places.
What utter bollocks have you dreamt up whilst intoxicated?

decided to declutter the bedroom and rearrange the furniture. Behind the bed we found one of her t-shirts. It's a shirt she only wears when decorating. We haven't done any decorating in quite a while, so that shirt has been down there for at least 6 months. The texture of the cloth is evidence that the shirt was also used to clean up any post-coital bodily fluids before it was meant to go into the wash basket.
Also, earlier today I moved a bookcase and amongst the cobwebs and dust, I found what I assume is a piece of mummified toast.
So, "How Clean is Your House"?

Tell us an anecdote on any subject about something that has happened to you in the past 14 days. Have you been in a fight, fallen in love, been sacked, found a missing girl in a lockup somewhere, had part of your body removed, partaken in group sex where everyone else was the opposite gender etc etc.
Anything goes, but it absolutely must be from the last 14 days, so providing people are honest, will mean no roasted peas. Completely original stories.
No posting 'flirting' stories either.

My Uncle once received a letter from the Department Of Transport (i.e My Dad) advising him that his pride and joy 1969 Cortina was due to be scrapped under the UK's new scrappage scheme for vehicles over 25 years of age and less than £4,000 in value. He was to receive £50 for the scrap metal.
He was less than impressed when my dad told him it was a joke, he sold the car to 'Some Daft Prick' in the boozer for £500 two hours earlier.
When have you been scammed, or have you been the scammer?

There's a local group trying to get my local fleapit restored after it was bought and left to rot by the United Church of the Kingdom of God (mad Brazilians who now own the legendary Raindow in Finsbury Park, London).

Anyways, I rarely go to the flicks now, and get all nostalgic about smoking on the left hand side of the auditorium, being spat on by the bigger boys sitting in the balcony, and having a quick fondle between Kia-ora ads.
What are your cinema stories?

A few days ago I finally managed to get a girl I've really really liked for ages (and who knows it too) into bed with me. She cuddled up to me all night and I thought "Finally, someone who will let me touch them where they wee!". In the morning she left.
Two days of silence later she announced to all our friends in the pub that she'd been so drunk that she had thought I was someone else, hence the snuggling. When she woke up she was so shocked to find out "it was that one" (with pointing) she ran off without saying anything. Bitch.
Have you ever failed to get somewhere, something or someone on the grounds that you weren't who they thought you were? (This could get a little metaphysical...)

Everyones got one, a mental friend who just doesnt quite fit in with your social circle. Mine shall remain nameless as I have a suspicion he is a b3tan. He doesnt work, sits at home on the xbox most of the day will only go out to pub quizzes. Does surprisingly well with the ladies though which irks somewhat. Tell us about your strange friends.

Not a QOTW suggestion, but how about having another category (between Top Tips and Bugs and features), similar to Yahoo! Answers or 118118.
People with questions can post them, and helpful b3tards can answer. It's left as an exercise to the reader which answers actually contain snippets of truth.

I’ve just tried one of my little boy’s smarties - one of the few sweets mum allows - what with them being devoid of e-numbers, additives preservatives (or any bloody flavour). They taste like boiled beetles.
I fucking loved those brightly coloured hyperactive crunchy little chocolate sugar bombs as a kid. (Merkins think M&M’s but obviously less good)
What simple pleasure has ‘progress’ robbed you of?
Or put another way…
Why would being a kid now be utter shit?
