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.)

Lets avoid a week of Christmas related stories
about Uncle Ken getting pissed and knocking over the tree, or how Dad nearly took Gran's eye out with the carving knife that year. Or those tedious reminiscences about Big Trak etc.
Let's ride out the festive season with interesting stories about the biggest thing you've ever stuck up your arse.

Rose tinted spectacles of nostalgia
When I was a nipper, kids TV was brilliant, sweets were better and it was safe to go and play alone in the park. Things were so much better back then.
After having recently seen the Clangers again / found out what E-numbers were put into sherbet sugar bombs / the exploding Savile scandal I'm calling bollocks on nostalgia.
What iconic things are still great in the hazy glow of your nostalgia archive, despite you now knowing that it's actually Tosh?

Mixer Taps
Tell us about the taps that have meant most to your life.
Perhaps they provided a warm bath to bathe your loved one, surrounded by rose petals, or maybe even a pulsating flow of bouncing water to excite them.

Car Crash!
A couple of weeks ago my missus was involved in a serious motor vehicle accident.
She was driving between jobs (she's a carer for people with dementia in the the community). As she pulled away from a green light another bloke ran a red light and t-boned her on the drivers side. He hit her at about 60kph. Her side airbag deployed and when she could move she (after calling for help and being un-heard) she managed to crawl out of the passenger side door and walk away.
2 plain-clothes cops had been directly behind the other guy and the the intersection where it happened was across the road from the local copshop.
I got a phone call at about 0800 from a strange woman (my wife was too distressed to even dial me) telling me my missus had been involved in a car accident (you can imagine where my mind went there!) but she put my sobbing missus on. I found out where she was, called the insurance and what-not and off my daughter and I went.
The missus refused to ride in the same ambo as the other guy (he got a nasty donk to the noggin), so I took her to hospital. Several hours later and an xray they released her with no breaks or bleeding. She has been receiving physiotherapy for an injury to her right hip. EDIT: She's currently back at work doing light duties.
The insurance company stumped up the agreed value 3 days later, after the assessor had rung me telling me he was amazed anyone walked out of that alive and within another week we had a new (used) car. EDIT: We are so far about AUD$6000 out of pocket.
In the mean time whilst we were a 1 car family (1st world problems, right?) I had rows with my work for leaving site for 20 min. to go and drop my daughter off at school once.
The pics of the wreck are here (1,2) if anyone's interested.
I'm sure many of us here have had to deal with tragedy related to car accidents, this suggestion is in no way meant to trivialise such horrible situations.
I'm merely telling my (and my wife's) story and asking any others out there to give us yours - whether the outcomes were good or bad.

What would you like to know about the opposite sex, but are afraid to ask?
Can ladies get away with not washing their hands after a wee? Do you catch Is it difficult for guys to walk around all day with something dangling between their legs like that? Boobs: what's the big deal?
These are the pressing questions.
Heh. "Pressing".

Purchasing regrets
The wife wanted a new car and she found just what she wanted at a garage about an hour away. The minute I saw it I knew we should of run for the hills but she bought it anyway, and what a crock it is. What have you bought, borrowed or stolen with immediate regret?

Economising blues
Having just returned from a miserable trip to the local NHS dentist, I realise I wish I had the cash to carry on seeing my (rather talented) private dentist. What luxuries have you foregone due to the rubbish economic climate? (Massive drugs and prostitutes do not an answer make)

Band names
Every time I join a new band there's always the annoyance of coming up with a new name.
Most of mine get shot down for being inappropriate. I don't see what's wrong with a soft rock local pub band called either "Lesbian Tofu", "The Gape" or "Alabama Hotpocket".
What would you call your band? Imaginary or real.
