Question of the Week suggestionsEach 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.)

Faux Pas.I recently cracked a 'your mum' joke to a friend, only to instantly remember that she lost her mother to cancer when we were 13.
I can't be the only person here with foot-in-mouth disease. Make me feel better.

I know the feelingBecause I did something very similar a while back.
I was walking around town with some of my friends, and a guy called Max was complaining that he never had any money (hardly surprising, as he has no job). However, it's fairly well known around here that Max's grandad is a millionaire. So one guy asked him "Max! Why don't you get you grandad to give you some money? He must be a tight git if he doesn't!"
Max looked rather downcast at this, and replied "Don't have a go at him, he's been having a hard time lately". Never one to miss a feed line I chipped in with "What happened? Did his pockets break?". Cue laughter. "Actually, he's got cancer". Cue silence. Deathly silence.
