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.)

Putting your foot in it
Have you ever said something you've regretted saying the second it came out of your mouth? Such as when referring to a friends mother (a larger lady) accidentally getting the comical insult of Waynetta Slob mixed up the downright vicious Fat Bastard?or taking the piss out of Jehovah's witnesses for five minutes before remembering the friend you are talking to is a witness? Have you said anything more regrettable?

best made up swearword?
not mine but "spunk-bubble". interestingly, the same 14 year old boy who says that also recently told me that "dood" is another name for a camels foreskin and so whenever my friends called me a dude i should be wary.

Bizarre words
For the Brits, what are the weirdest words that we Yanks use in everyday language that you have to use syntax to figure out.
For the Yanks, what are the British phrases that get your goat.
For example, British terms like Lorrie, pecker, faggot can cause some confusion if spoken by an American.
is there anything we say that trips you folks up.

ooh how about
asking everyone what's the most annoying advert they've ever watched. I know that right now all the loan adverts are p*ssing me off; hence the need to go on the internet to escape those evil people...they scare me...stop offering money if you only want it back! ( wankers)

what was the worst kiss anyone had?
were you kissed by someone with lips like a macdonalds burger, or have you ever been kissed by a same-sex friend that secretly fancied you, but kissed you while they were drunk? ( trust me, that's happened a lot, very scary experience!)

Child hood make believe
What games did you make up as a kid? One game my sister and a friend of ours and myself plaied was Loonies (still ahve the official loony pad) which consited of me (talks and hugs herself) my sister who's just over a year older than me (she went loony by swinging on her chair and smaking here head) and my mums friend who was in his late 40's which i still cant believe to this day as he was exactly like Garf from waynes world. The game was to be mad people, my sister used to escape from the funny farm and "garf" used to sing stupidly, catch my sister or protect me from her. The loony pad is in the house somewhere with profiles and loony songs by us with bandnames like *the screaming airheads* singing "heya skakaman, im not sitting in a frying pan!" We were about 8
I have loads mor, like the one where my sister made me curl up in the bottom of a sleeping bag while she lay in it and slid down the stairs. There was a 90 degree turn so i was the bumper....also the game when whenever i was left at my mums friends house, my sister and her friend their used to tie me up with school ties and leave me in the cupboard until my mum came home.
best years of my life...not

Where is the love?
that's a good question.
Have you ever wondered why there are so many bees?
or perhaps
Have you noticed how there always seems to be one spoon you've missed after finishing the washing up? Any other interesting observations?

Have you ever shat/pissed yourself?
I imagine many of us have at some stage, probably later than we'd like to admit, shat or pissed ourselves. It's funny, if a little grim, and i reckon there are loads of people out there with embarrassing/funny stories to tell.

What is the most stupid/irritating question you've been asked?
..and how much more annoying does it get when you've been asked it repeatedly?
Think family get-togethers and you're there.

I have another one. (and i'm going to apologise right now)
...because i can already feel it turning into two or three more.
1) Why are people so afraid of bats?? They're basically cute harmless little mouse-like things with wings, they have less disease, and no, they DON'T get in your hair. I've never been freaked out by them...one day whilst i was driving(or trying to at that time) I hit one at low speed with the windshield. Don't ask me what it was doing there by day, but all i know is the poor little thing ended up clinging to the wiper. It wasn't seriously injured, but maybe it left me feeling like I owed it-and the bat world-something. Later I and some people were sitting around at uni when something flew in the open window and landed with a thud on the sill(they really can't take care of them selves can they?) We couldn't figure out what it was at first-it just looked like a fucked-up little furry thingy, but then I figured it out: "It's a bat". "A BAT!!!" and they're all running round hystercially grabbing their heads with their hands, looking ridiculous, as if the poor 'ickle terrified bat is seriously going to fly up and get tangled in their hair or something. This one died on its own in the end
:o( , but the idiots would have smushed it to death if I hadn't been there to lend them some reason. Fucking crazy.
This has been another long convuluted anecdote, brought to you with the aid of Caffeine. :)
