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.)

Stupidity
What is the most ridiculously stupid thing you've ever done, e.g. being told not to do something because it's dangerous, so then proceeding to do it when dad's back's turned.
I was once told not to let go of a rope swing, so I did, purely because I was told not to and wanted to see what would actually happen. The result however was maybe not so dumb: I learnt never to do it again. Thus, the key to human and humanity's development is to do stupid things, just the once. Except for The Bomb of course, which was dropped twice (and counting).
As a friend of a friend of mine once said, when asked why people would go round fighting each other - "Because the human race is severely disappointing". I believe that this comment can be applied with ease to any situation / social problem in the world today.

Worse luck than calamity james dropping a mirror whilst under a ladder
Describe the most ludicrously unlucky day that you've EVER had. You know the days when you really think things can't get worse, then they really, really do, and you end up laughing insanely because you've cried yourself into a delusional state? Those would be good to hear.
One day as a kid I got caught smoking by my dad, then my mate's dad, then by the police (herbal high) then taken in by the police AGAIN for drinking on the streets that night.

My great grandad was probably one of the Krays, although nobody is sure which one.
I also nearly played a gig with the Darkness, but our band had a car crash on the way to a crucial band practice, so we never got to play the gig.
I'd like to know, what are other people's dubious claims to fame?

How about the best April Fool's gag? (by you or someone else)
Like the time I was driving through Sheffield on April 1, listening to local radio, when this guy came on describing the wonderful new traffic lights that change to green when you sound your horn.
Half the city centre must have been woken up by that sound (it was 5am at the time) and I think it was later reported that the station had about 2,000 complaints from pissed-off motorists.
Honest.

Comedy Hearing
Being deaf in one ear, and partially deaf in the other, I often mishear things. One day a friend was talking about joining a new video rental shop, but said he couldn't join straight away because he didn't have two utility belts. I tried to work this out in my head and replied 'Utility belts??? what, like Batman?' At which point he cracked up and said to me, slowly and clearly 'Utility bills!!, you know, like a bank statement.' It still makes me laugh.
