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.)

Please share your tales of diplomacy faliure; extra bonus points for crying widows...

My biggest was posted on QOTW a while back.
Friends bought a house and were showing me round, the decor was abysmal, on viewing the yellow and black bathroom I said it would be nice when it had been redecorated.
Stony silence followed by, well actually this is the only room we have decorated ourselves.
pass me a shovel
