![This is a question](/images/board_posticon.gif)
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.)

Things you have said you wish never got out of your mouth.
I have done this tons of times but I did draw attention to the remarkable tan one of my new colleagues had after a she returned from Oz.
"Cor Blimey! With your blonde hair and fair complexion you had better watch!" then....
"Why is she crying? Eh? I didnt know her mum died of skin cancer!" then.....
"Ooww! That hurt!"
Go to Hull.....

You want everyone to think that you're one of the cool ones. Only people won't be impressed when they discover that you...

Things you always catch people doing. Preferably odd. Be creative, don't say smoking. Lots of idiots do that. Do YOU have a friend who won't stop scratching his ass?
Like the time I went skiing. Went up a little uphill... which had a steep downhill on the other side. Very steep. Cue airtime, seemingly for ever... "Holy FU

Most insane events that ever happened to you within the space of a day. I don't mean isolated events that were really momentous-- I mean strings of events that came together by the threads of the universe, somehow connected by random chance but that produced awesomeness. Pure uncut awesomeness.
Bollocks to length. Write enough that you need.

Forget Traffic Cones and Garden Gnomes, what wild things have you stolen over the years from people.

Ask people about their worst public transport journeys. I think the mix of beggars, headphone twats, fat people and shouting maniacs can make for some truly interesting experiences. And you'll get to hear some of my classic District Line stories . . .

I learnt how to wink at a very young age. I became very adapt at winking with my right eye. I would wink here and wink here. It could be said that I mastered the art of the wink with the right eye, so much so that I neglected the needs of the left one. Oh well, no bother I thought.
Dont get me wrong, I can blink both eyes and close both eyes, but I could never close my left eye on its own, and no one had brought this up in conversation, and I just believed everyone could just close one of their eyes.
This was right up to Air Cadet Camp, I was 15. "Ok you Maggots," The Officer may have said, "now just close your left eye and look down the sight..."
cue mumblings from me, and having to wear an eye patch for a week to learn how to close my left eye.
WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME! I could have learnt this years ago and not had to suffer the humilitation of Air Cadet Camp.

At a works do, I called my boss a tight cnut for not buying everyone a round.
On another occasion, my boss told me he was a Man Utd fan - cue me rambling drunkenly about how all Man U fans were glory hunters who knew nothing about football. Got sacked within the week.
How have you insulted your boss?

Like the first time I went to my best friends house for a slumber/60's party when i was about 14. I was greeted by her running across the street semi clad to hug me and said "if i stick my tongue down your throat im just being friendly". She reminds me of this every time I get to see her, usually after drinking on a night out!
Had some great parties at hers during school, getting pissed on lambrini and grapejuice that hit harder than it straight!

Ever had a problem distinguishing between dream and reality? I once woke up convinced I'd found a schoolmate dead, and for some reason had disoposed of his body in a needlessly macabre way. Ridden with guilt I went to school, and nearly shat myself when I saw that he was alive.
What problems have you had distinguishing tween reality an dream?

Subject says it all, really.
In my case, there's a long, boring story about being jumped in a lift by a woman 20 years my senior at a staff do.
Pose the question, and I shall answer!

A friend of my brothers fell asleep in his local pub once. He was never noticed and woke up about 3am.
He drank the place dry
I also 'woke up' coming very hard with a rather nice, large breasted woman on me about 3 weeks ago the morning after an end of exams party. She took the condom off and I never seen her again.
Anyone have the address of the nearest GUM clinic?

I once had a friend who used to wear a big black trenchcoat and when we were out gettin pissed in the forest he used to run from tree to tree flapping his coat like a coat!
He then would climb a tree and 'write poetry', he always picked the tree that people took a piss at and would make a sort of 'ahem' coughing sound just to get your attention.
We still talk about him today

When I was fifteen I once (well many times actually) got completely bladdered on rum and black. Woke up the next morning feeling a tad under the weather. Having decided that there was no way I was going to make it to the bog I decided it was best that I throw up out of my bedroom window which was directly over the front door. Unfortunately the milkman was just leaving our morning pinta at the time. He never delivered to us again.
On another occasion I threw up in someone's duffelcoat hood. Thankfully he was a student so it doesn't really count as a misdemeanour.
Sadly the milkman is now a dieing breed and so the opportunity to vomit on them has dwindled considerably.

I'm putting more things I’ve heard that are stupid, just because I’ve got nothing else to do now that neighbours has finished:
Friend: How come if there’s no electricity in 28 days later all the windmills are still turning round?
HUH?
Friend: Don't windmills make wind?
Just nod and smile.

People often don't listen properly and think they hear something stupid. I heard that they banned the kinks song Louie Louie, because people thought the lyrics were rude. They’re not, people are just stupid.

Same Friend as in RainbowFaerie's post:
Driving up to a T junction I ask, "which way," she says "straight on," I point out you can't go straight, cue shouts of "left, no right, wait, left, or right," then eventually she points left! They both lead to the same place anyway...

Everyone says stupid things sometimes:
My friend once told me she was thinking of not eating meat anymore, becoming one of those virgos!
Another friend says many of these phrases, including does this quiche have origami in it?

How about where we talk about stupid stuff we shouldn't have done, but did anyway. I've got buckets, mainly involving my answers to certain GCSE questions.....
