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.)

Tell Us Your Story »
Hospital stories
Definitely hospital stories. Fun, and reveals little known facts about people.... my poor bro had to go in when he ran into the end of a sofa and hurt his pee-pee. He was 3 and had to have major surgery.

What's your favourite useless fact?
Things like "Zebras like black and white stripes. If they are painted on a wall, any local zebra will stand next to it."

Short List Of Ideas
Don't have the time to read 20 pages of responses, so I'm sorry if I accidentally steal someones idea...
* What's been your biggest workplace blunder?
I can only imagine how many of these would be, "lost the company half a million"...
* What did you take the blame for?
Was it noble and did you get revenge on the snotty little kid that put the blame on you...
* My Most Embarrasing Secret.
'nuff said - let the hummus commence...
* "I've been driving in my car..."
Motoring stories; be they car games you played as a child or unfortunate service station incidents...
* How Clean Is Your House?
Jumping on the latest televisual bandwagon. Some nice stories to be had regarding blocked toilets and dead rats I'm sure...
* Practical Jokes
What was your best practical joke, or what sick, sadistic little cockmonkey tried to play one on you...
* Skool Daze
What was the nastiest thing you did to a teacher - we made one cry, one almost resign and two requested that they not take us the following year; oooh...and something about locking them out of the classroom - ahh! The memories...

that we should maybe all run around with pants on our heads shouting "we love b3ta" until we are blue in the face and have cold privates.... or maybe just some random kitten throwing contest with large ammounts of alcoholic beverages and various forms of mind altering drugs

Where has Rob gone on holiday...
...hence no question of the week?
-Ibiza?
-Magaluf?
-Tenerife?
-Coventry?
Or celebrities you would like to fight- mine would be Jamie Oliver. My housemate has some irrational ones like Steve Ryder, Alice Beer and even Parkinson!

How about 'Wierdest Job Interview Experience'.
I know that I managed to feint in a job interview.
I still got the job over people who actually managed to stay concious throughout theirs.
Also, a friend of mine once had an interview just after his appendix operation. He asked the interviewer if he could remove his trousers, cos they were hurting his operation scar. They let him sit there in his pants for the duration. He also got the job!

What's the best wind-up you ever played on your siblings?
Due to his weird hair - all I used to have to do was call my little bro Ronald Reagan and he'd flip. I'd wait. And wait. And wait and then say "My fellow Americans..." with one hand held forward ala RIP Ronnie.
Many a scrap started that way.
Then he outgrew me by two foot and I got my just desserts.
*Wipes nostalgic tear from eye*
It's nothing, just a bit of dust. Really.

I once got chased
by a herd of Llama after inadvertently tresspassing on a Llama farm.
The llama farmer was very kind and called them off before offering us a cup of tea (he even had biscuits).
All this happened during a walking/hitchhiking/camping holiday that went wrong.
I want to know other peoples holiday animal stories. Especcially ones ending in goring or extreme humiliation.

pub quiz names
I'm bored of our quiz team name in our local every Tuesday. I want a new one. I've run out of inspiration.. And if I hear 'Norfolk and Chance' once more, I might go and cut my bollocks off, just cos it's something new.
Ok maybe not, but here are a few that I've heard which almost amused me...
Whale Oil Beef Hooked
If You See Kay
My wife can't fight, but you should see her box.
The Feeky Chuckers
Any suggestions?

The question of the week.
The question of the week is how many people are fedup of logging onto the site to be asked what the question of the week should be.

Ever been on a disastrous date?
I once dated a girl who blessed my cigarettes with holy water.
At least I hope it was holy water. She had a small plastic spray bottle and did so to "save my soul".
We hadn't even ordered a starter at this point.
Anyone else been caught off guard on a first date?

Uhm...
Most soul-destroying job. Like spending 12 hours a day in a refrigerated salad factory (they have now branched out into stir-fries...oof the excitement) during the heighth of UK summer squeezing bags of salad to check if the seals were airtight. With no gloves. I couldn't feel my arm, never mind the smegging bag. Or pushing out cardboard cutouts for advertising mortgages and coco pops.
Mebee it dosn't meet the criteria, but I reckon that it will make us feel a sight better about the crock o'shite that we call a living now.
Or the power of peer pressure. I made a mentally-challenged childhood friend eat mud after convincing her it was a roast with mash and gravy. She puked and cried. But she was the chef.
