Question of the Week suggestions
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.)

We can tell tales of our funny experiences with the poor, thick, burberry-wearing people of the UK.

dunno if this has been asked
and frankly i don't care. Hospital stays/visits. Your own experience, from being in the hospital or visiting someone etc. I have a story about my visit to the mental hospital that i've been dying to tell. I suck at telling stories and this one isn't particularly incredible, or particularly short.
I just like telling stories :|

Oh how about...
Your mother, sort of the same lines as the crap Dad jokes but not funny whatsoever, well to you.
(Thank god for anonymity,) How about your Mum going round to you ex girlfriends house just after she dumped you to tell he she was never good enough for you and your better of without her anyway.
Feeling the massive black pit that you want to jump into never appear as she tells all her friends, your Mum fights all you battles for you......despite you being 21.
Never happened to me...no siree bob!

Room 101
Same theme as the BBC 2 programme presented by funnyman Paul Merton. Effectively 5 things you hate and want to be locked into 'Room 101', never to be seen again. Mine would be:-
- Cyclists- a nuisence plain and simple- and YOU get blamed if you run them over!
- Tennis / Wimbledon / Pimms / Strawberry's & Cream. Represents all that is wrong with Britain. See also Cliff Richard, Sue Barker, tennis courts packed with idiots for a month
- DJ's who pretend to like footy to increase their popularity, despite previously announcing their hatred for it
- Formula 1- VVVVVRRRROOOOOMMMMMM! Shite
- A Question of Sport- awful. Basic, out-of-date humour given a platform by idiots who fear change, and acted out by pre-scripted sportsmen who manage to unintentionally show why they are sportsmen and not comedians. See also Sue Barker.
Missed the catagory on being rude to famous people. Playing Sunday League Footy last year in Didsbury, when confronted by a new team-mate who (sniggering) announced I looked like a 'fat Harry Kewell'.
I responded that he looked like 'a fucking low-budget ex-England fast bowler Peter Martin', forgetting he had previously introduced himself as 'Pete'.
Not sure if he didn't pass to me for that reason, or simply because I'm shite
Apologies for length, but it is my debut post!

strangest places youve ever slept... and why
I fell asleep in a haystack one time after me and the lads couldnt break into a shed we found, dont worry it wasnt dark in there cos we took one of those old oil powered road works lanterns with us (ya know the kind with a real flame!), we were as you may well imagine very very drunk at the time.
(totally true story, luckily we didnt knock it over during the night so didnt get burnt to a crisp)

Digging up Grandpa
remember how we thought it would be a good idea to dig up the rancid old fart to satisfy our curiosity about the nature of decomposition...no?
maybe a bit too personal an anecdote this one then....
stick that one in the reject box

Or famous people fancied as a young child.

Human teachers
When teachers did something human - like took you down the pub.
Or got strangely obsessed with the girl who played Georgina on Grange Hill in the 80's and carried a photo in their wallets of her. (Samantha Lewis if you must know. Still in the wank bank after all these years).
