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's the best urban myth you ever heard?
Mine was the guy who got poisoned by a McChicken Sandwich, and when they tested the mayonnaise, in it was found the "best wishes" of three different gentlemen.

The Stupidest Thing You've Ever Done...
... for instance, when I was in 1st year (i.e. about 11) i participated in induced fainting. This is basically breathing in and out deeply and quickly (this can get you f*cked out of your head as well, incidentally) and getting a trusted friend (one that won't knee you in the balls when you're out cold) to hold the arteries on either side of your neck until you pass out, which typically lasts about 20-30 seconds.
Now, this is stupidly dangerous in itself, but as i keeled over people suddenly realised how heavy i was (6ft tall and 9 stone) and i fell to the ground, knocking my head off the kerb. Apparently my eyes flashed open for a second then i passed out again.
I, on the other hand, was having a nice dream about a ferris wheel that gradually sped up. This was suddenly cut short and a nasty white noise/feedback sound filled my senses. Then, the nightmare beasts from my night terrors appeared, and came at me
I woke up screaming and had to be held down a talked to calmly for five minutes before i regained full consciousness. Even now i get jittery around that feedback type sound, and have regular panic attacks when something in my subconscious memory kicks in. Nasty.

What was the first time you ever got so drunk you had a proper memory lapse. One of those moments when you wake up in bed (if you're lucky) and think "hang on... how did I get here?"

Your pets called what?
When me and my parents owned a pub we always had guard dogs. I remember when we got a male and a female debermans.
The female one was called fanny and the male one was called Fokker (german plane)
until my mum pointed out the fact that calling fokker fanny whilst walking past the church next to us could cause some arguments with the locals.
Fokker was then named to prince.

Adverts that used to freak you out as a kid...
I was petrified by an advert for stones bitter in the early 80's, they'd scan the beer at the checkout, and the checkout girl turned to stone and then winked at the camera. That really freaked me,and still does, that and Peter Davison regenerating into Colin baker in Doctor Who, that freaked me too!!!

How about...
...the biggest bestest lie you ever told and got away with...my mate once got months off work by telling them he had broken his leg...they never asked for a doctors note assuming that you wouldn't make something like that up!...He did have to fake a limp for a bit on returning to work though!

Too much information
What's the most inappropriately intimate thing your parents, relatives or total strangers have ever told you? (Boyfriends/girlfriends don't count because eventually you're supposed to know about the time they got a Snickers bar stuck in an intimate place.)
I was on the phone to my mum once when it somehow came up that I hadn't been getting any lately because I had my period. (!) My mum said "Don't you do it during your period? The last time your father and I did it it was *very* red."
How do I get into these conversations?!
On the other hand, it cured me of my phobia of doing "it" during my period... no, you can't use this as your story!

What is the most innapropriate name for a pet?
Have you ever noticed how some "regular" names just don't work when they are applied to animals?
I had a friend who had a goldfish called Tim, and a second mate who called his dog Phillip.

Best insult you've suffered
Having a beard and long hair I, typically get the "JESUS" shout from twats in the street who obviously think that I've never heard that before etc. etc. BUT...... whilst riding my mountain bike into town one day a very clever lad called out "I thought Jesus was supposed to ride a donkey". I almost fell off my bike in hysterics. Spot on that man.

Obsessions...
I need to make sure the stuff on my desk is all aligned, nothing skewed out of place. Also, I sometimes take a teaspoon of coffee powder, tip it back, take another, tip it back, until it feels 'right'. Anyone else got bizarre compulsions?

I walked home 3 miles from the pub/work, and rolled a giant snowball, for 3 miles. I then dumped it outside my mates front door

Worst Associations
No, not "RSPB" etc.
A bit like hearing a certain record "takes you back" - washing up the dishes reminds me of actually shagging this really skanky bird years ago.
So what weird events enter your head while doing mundane regular things?
