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.)

The most frightening thing
My brother and I were once wondering what would be the most frightening weapon to be innocently carrying when opening the door to an unwelcome guest? Or, what would be the noise you really wouldn't want to hear from an occupant when knocking the door.
We both settled on:
1/ A chainsaw
2/ The sound of a chainsaw starting up.
Of course there are many "weapon cocking" noises that would be frightening, but only if you could recognise them, whereas a chainsaw is pretty a distinctive sound.
What wouldn't YOU want to face?

@Captain
Are you thinking of ways of frightening off potential suitors from your daughter?
A chainsaw works well, as does the cunning positioning of a pair of bolt-cutters.

That metallic noise
you get when you unsheath a long, sharp blade...
