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.)

Walking paradoxes (paradoxi? I'm a not a teacher, shit)Where I live (Hong Kong), I see a lot of bizarre T-shirts worn in equally bizarre situations.
Two of my favorite include:
1. An extremely frail old man with stick-thin limbs, hunched over and shuffling along with the help of a cane, wearing a black T-shirt which read "DO SOME DAMAGE"
2. An Indonesian nanny wearing a Muslim headscarf, holding the hand of a little white blonde haired, blue eyed girl, wearing a hot pink T-shirt which read "JIHAD".
I'm sure this is not confined to English-as-a-second-language societies. I once saw a poodle-haired, portly fellow in the states wearing a red shirt with the 'Virgin' logo on it. Snickers ensued. What's the funniest T-shirt/walking paradox you've ever seen?
