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.)

What is the best snack food ever?
and why do you think so?


I think Wheat Thins (I don't know if you Brits have them, you probably do but I am a dumb american after all) kick ass, because they manage to make a wheat cracker tasty. I can eat whole boxes in one sitting.

Stupid colleagues
Have you ever worked with someone that are so obscenely stupid, that you're just waiting to read them on the Darwin awards?

I used to work at a ticketing agency, and when I asked the girl at the front desk to copy a list of daily bookings, she said she couldn't because the monitor wasn't close enough to the photocopier.
I had to quit because the valium wasn't working.

Stuff You Got Up To In School.
For example: One guy from my GCSE Business Studies class was told to leave the room for some infraction that slips my mind. This he did. Halfway to the door, he spun around and started moonwalking, while singing 'Can't Touch This' by MC Hammer. Most of the class burst out laughing, while the teacher looked on in a stunned silence.

Why do you answer the question of the week?
Why? :3
And don't say you don't answer it, contradiction and denial!

What was your first record?
The first record that I ever _had_ (bought as a Xmas present for me) was Jive Bunny and the Mastermixers. I still like it. Other than that, my taste in music is mostly credible.

The first record that I ever _bought_ was the 25th Anniversary of Glastonbury CD. Much more credible.

Tell us when you made a member of opposite sex cry
Either deliberately or not.

Can only think of it happening twice with me:

(1) Last year, three days into my first job as a "manager" I had to fire someone coz she was crap.

(2) love triangle thing when strange girl at college had a crush on me (God knows why) and walked in on me getting off with her best mate. She cut short my first ever proper kiss with a big cry-baby scene and ruined a beautiful moment for me. She obviously got over me because she is happily married now.

Tips
Whats the most useful day to day survival tip you could give anyone, none of all that emotional "be yourself" bollocks, like the ones from BBC 2's trade secrets crossed with Ray Mears or something.

What's your best pet memory?
Inspired by Sheep's recent FP...

I got my dog when he was about two pounds, the size of an average zucchini. Being a small beast he got picked up and held a lot as a puppy.

To the end he thought he was a lapdog, ignoring that he was a German shepherd/husky mix.

So one night as I was watching TV he decides he wants to be on my lap. No problem when I was on the couch, but I happened to be in a rocking chair at the time. It took a lot of wriggling, but he was content to sit on me while I watched TV.

I think my kids still have the picture my ex took of me sitting there with ninety pounds of dirtbag on my lap...

What really gets on your tits?
I don't mean the obvious stuff, I mean bizarre little pet hates that get right up your nose but don't seem to bother other people.

My no. 1 at the moment is grown women who attach little fluffy toys to their rucksacks. Makes my blood boil, it does.

How about
Pet experiences - what utterly stupid / amusing / downright embarrasing things has your pet caused? Dogs wiping their arse on the carpet, "male" gerbils suddenly becoming pregnant, your parrot shagging your rabbit?

playing with friend's phobias
We used to have a mate who had a most irrational fear of tomatoes, he would cross the street to avoid greengrocers shops and would become tearful at the sight of a tomato.
Had a party at his house and we sneaked into his bathroom and removed all the tootpaste from the tube, replacing it with tomato puree,
next morning it took us about 3 hours to get him down of the ceiling,
oh how we laughed

Oscure, Unfounded Theories
I have one. Being a card carrying athiest, I am highly sceptical of religion in general and believe (perhaps blasphemously - or not) that more pure happiness has been given/received in the world by Disney.

Some feat since Disney has only been around for under a century and people have been slaughtering each other over "God" since the dawn of time.

To my knowledge, no-one has ever been killed or sacrificed in the name of Mickey.

Long lost enemies
Is there someone you wish you could find to rub their nose in something? That old lover who said you'd never make it without them? The old boss who said you'd never work in this town again? The schoolyard bully who called you a stupid girly-girl (okay, that one still hurts *sniff!*)

Jokes you have never gotten
Okay, not being British and not having an ice cream man in my neighborhood, I have no idea if I should laugh about the whole "only playing music when they are out of ice cream" thing or not.

There is also a Far Side cartoon that has stumped me for almost 20 years now.

I'll laugh politely anyways...

Jokes only you think are funny
Joel Hodgeson of "Mystery Science Theater 3000" once said they never write a joke wondering who's going to get it. They write a joke knowing the right people will get it. Does something crack you up each time, but the right people never seem to appear to get it? Perhaps the right people are B3tans. Try it out on us.

We'll laugh politely anyways...

Have you ever had something happen...
...when you're about to do something completely fucking stupid and a 'coincidence' convinces you to change your mind.

For example, I once had a massive argument with my far, far, better half and stormed off. Halfway down our road a branch (not a twig, a motherfucking log) fell out of a tree and hit me on the head. Thankfully, I wasn't knocked out or concussed, because in that moment I realised that it had been some sort of smack on the back of the head by the big man. A ticking off telling me not to be so dumb. I turned back and made up. I had, after all, been a complete dick.

It's just been on the BBC website...
but would make a good one - driving test stories. I passed first time with only three minor faults (still get shafted on the insurance though) but surely there's some good tales to be told??
