This is a question 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.)

Dumped
We've all been dumped, or dumped someone. (Unless you are one of these freaks who have stayed with your first partner for life and never tried owt else).

How did it go? Get the grudge-fuck in before doing the deed? Was it funny - or sad?

Tales of relationship breakdown.

Too Polite For Your Own Good
At the age of 17, I found myself in a bar once with a mate. She ordered a WKD, and the barman brought her a Double JD instead. Not wanting to complain, she begged I had it. One downed malty shot later, and I felt rather ill.

Have you ever been too polite? Done something embarrassing just to save face? FUCKING HELL TELL ME YOUR STORIES.

Ruining it for everyone
We were told that we're probably not going to be getting any more plastic cups for the water dispenser, because some muppet tried to make a brew in it, which melted the cup to their desk (there's a paper cup dispenser next to the coffee machine).

How has your/someone elses stupidity ruined something for everyone?

Fears and phobias
As a consequence of my paranoid dad turning off all the switches and plugs at night, and watching all those Public Information Films as a kid, I'm still pretty scared of being in a house fire (even though we don't smoke or use a chip pan)

What scares you?

You had to be there
We all have that one story that we can't tell all the way through without collapsing in hysterics, while those around us stare in complete mystification.

You know, those stories that tail off into an embarrassed silence, followed by "Well, you had to be there, really".

Tell us yours.

Finding your talents
When did you unexpectedly discover you're good at something you never expected to be able to do? I started playing poker properly last October, and four months on I'm one of the four or five best players at my uni, and I'm heading down to Birmingham in April to play in the UK student championships.

Psychics
as some of you know a friend of mine is missing. One woman is making me very angry by claiming to know three psychics who all place her in the same place. In my opinion she is not only talking bollocks but hampering the chances of finding her alive by getting people to concentrate their efforts in an area that she may not be anywhere near.

So the Question suggestion is Psychics, any experiences that either made you believe its true or made you even more sure its bollocks?

Seemed like a good idea at the time…
Back when I was a kid I decided to have a little swim wearing all my cloths in a reservoir near where I lived. Of course it didn’t occur to me at the time that my white polyester shorts and white cotton t-shirt would turn completely transparent when wet. As I trudged home everyone could see I was wearing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles underpants. I was fifteen at the time.

We’ve all said it or at least thought it as one time or another. That moment when you mutter those immortal words: “It seemed like a good idea at the time.”

Tell us your ‘seemed like a good idea at the time’ moments. Extra points for having someone shout: “Oi, turtle-arse!!!” As you walk past, leaving a watery wake as you go.

Unusual phsyical talents
My mate Steve can squirt saliva through the gap between his front teeth with an audible 'squee' sound. And my pal Stuart can fart to order by somehow sucking air up his arse.

What unusual physical talents do you have or have you seen?

Brunette
Do you have, or do you know someone that is cursed with brown hair. How dull is it to be a 'brownhead'.

No blonde moments for me. No sir.

It's all interesting.

Travelling/Holidays
I have been to some horrific tourist traps in my time. One time I arrived in Spain with my then GF, to a half built hotel resort, it was a bit like the shining but instead of Jack going crazy, it was me!! Never went back to spain or on another package holiday!! To make matters worse we were surrounded by moronic English people that I never would meet back here in the UK. I think maybe that's because I don't live in Essex. Anyways, holiday disasters pls. *sticks out palm*

Have to admit though I voted for the Nostalgia QOTW and the 2030 one, good ones me thinks!

Holidays Probably bindun!

In too deep
When I was a student I had a (very) breif stint as a delivery driver for a company that sold bathtubs. Very breif indeed. Why? Because I can't drive. Failed to mention that in the interview and the bloke who interviewed me never asked. I was in too deep. Ended up running off after about an hour of putting off taking the van out.

Tell us about the occasions you've been in too deep.

LOST IT !!!
This weekend I found myself questioning whether a fellow passenger on the tube actually knew his father (or words to that effect) while waving my arms about and generally frothing at the mouth. Why? Because he’d just sat on my carton of eggs… I’d had a long day, no sleep the night before, was piss wet through after trudging round London all morning and, to be honest, I just completely lost it.

Tell us about the times you, someone you know, or some random stranger has completely lost it and gone on a sweary rant rampage(much to the amusement of everyone else in close proximity).

How about one...
...that just gives folk a week to whine, whinge and bitch about the QOTW? Maybe if they had an entire week to get it out of their systems then they'd shut the fuck up.

Houseparties
On friday my flatmate had a house party for his 21st birthday. About 20 people showed up, of which 15 were tee-total. The music was awful 'urban' stuff, and the host got out a twister set. He even told me other housemate to wear a different dress because her boobs were "too on-show".

What epic fails/wins have you seen at house parties?

Fur, yes or no?
Do you like to wear fur, or is it total anathema to you ?
Ever had paint poured over you when you did?
Is wearing fur a fashion statement?
Is it acceptable in Inuit or Siberian environments but not in London or New York?
Or is fur a total and absolute no no under any circumstances ?
Just a thought

Nostalgia ain't wot it used to be
I look back fondly to the days when toothpaste tubes were made of metal (like tomato puree ones), and the unique pleasure we used to have when you took a new album out of its inner sleeve and carefully put it on the turntable for the first listen; you could sit down and read all the stuff on the album cover...and when we had a birthday party, and we were going to the cinema, my dad would fill the car with nine or ten kids - the lucky ones would get to sit in the boot of his estate car and make faces out of the back at the cars behind.

What's changed since you were a kid? What do you miss?

Things you do or say with friends that would have everyone think you're insane
I developed a bit of a lol cats addiction a couple of years back (I'm ok now though) which resulted in me rather overusing the phrase "oh no!" and of course deviations thereof including oh noes, oh nose and, occasionally, oh toes. At first it drove my housemates at the time completely insane but has now been adopted as a standard greeting between us so if one of them calls me I'll pick up the phone and say "oh no!" and they'll say "oh no!" back and all messenger type conversations start off with "oh no!", occasionally text messages or voice mails will consist simply of the words "oh no!" and since I still live with one of these guys the standard greeting when someone comes in is for them to shout "oh no!" up the stairs (to which the standard reply is oh no!).

What silly little in jokes have the rest of you got that would make everyone else think that you've just escaped from the local loony bin?
