Unfortunate Photos
Maybe you were in the middle of blinking, singing or sneezing, but sometimes photos are taken of you or your friends which make you look a bit... simple. Or maybe a guy behind you holding up an umbrella makes it look like you're wearing a poncey hat. Share all the embrassing photos you have.

[I thought of this, because then we won't get a whole week of people somehow reverting the question to sex stories, lies or honda accords]

EDIT: I SUGGEST CALLING IT "PICS OR GTFO"

This is a good one...
I may actually be able to respond to it. I'm the least photogenic person ever. I may put up the picture from my vacation where I look like a retarded troll. Ironically, since I swore it would never see the light of day.

This is crap because..
a) Lots of people on B3ta wish to remain anonymous.

b) There won't be any sex stories.
( girlinthehole, Mon 22 Jun 2009, 11:05, Reply)

But it'd be the first QOTW where all stories are true. And, gasp, maybe some of the non regulars can post stories!
We wouldn't want this, would we.

WAIT!
no sex stories?
(likeajackhammer, Mon 22 Jun 2009, 12:01, Reply)

So what you are saying is we are stopping non regulars from posting on qotw somehow?
Okaaaaaay!



Someone has issues.

No, I'm saying this has more chance that the non-regulars' stories will be clicked

So it's all about the clickage is it?
There are many people on here who post stories, true or otherwise who don't give a rat's arse if it gets clicked or not.
( girlinthehole, Mon 22 Jun 2009, 19:17, Reply)

Well, if they don't give a rat's arse, why would they care now?
They can carry on posting stories for the hell of it.

I don't understand your argument.

"WE DON'T CARE BUT WE DO"

Nice.

They don't care now....I don't care now.
I'm just saying it's a crap idea for qotw.

Tis all!
( girlinthehole, Mon 22 Jun 2009, 19:20, Reply)

Why is it crap? Because people won't be able to lie?

(__, Mon 22 Jun 2009, 19:21, Reply)

Why are you all so uptight about some stories being untrue?
Everyone knows some of the stories are untrue and most of us on qotw don't give a shit.

If it's untrue but funny or well written then I like to read them. Some tossers post crap but we gloss over it and read the good stuff.

It's call question of the week and not true events in your life.

Get over it!
( girlinthehole, Mon 22 Jun 2009, 19:24, Reply)

Oh, it's okay. I don't care.
And I don't give a shit.

And neither do the others who agree.

They don't give a shit so much, they don't even give two shits.

Two.

Also, it's called "Question of the Week". So, I'll assume, it needs Answers. Answers of the week.

Not lies.

I understand the fun stories that are funny. I understand the untrue stories that lead to a pun thread.

But stories such as "Yeah, I laughed when my daughter's bully was killed" isn't true, nor does it entertain anyone.

But I don't care about it so much, I just typed a long spiel.

Because I don't care.

La de da de da de da de da.

Get over it!

You're being very aggressive for someone who doesn't care.

I think maybe she raped by an uncle with a moon-face
who then wrote a humorous keyboard song about the incident to the tune of friends.

So putting my point across is being aggressive is it?
OK.

The way you are doing it. Yes.

She's clearly not getting worked up at you, online.

They don't have to respond to every question of the week, ever.
It will be something different. What's wrong with that for one week?

The idea of change frightens feminist skinheads.
It's the kind of thing endorsed by queers, n____rs or their sympathisers.

A QUESTION of the week based on PHOTOS??? Why not go all the way and suggest an image challenge where you can only reply using prose???

Some poeple answer QOTW using photos
Like the "Phil Jupitus nearly stole my teddy" one.

And the amount of times people say "Click 'I Like This' and I'll show a photo"

Some people have humerous photos.

Also, /board isn't all about photos.
