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.)

Psychotic Introductions
What are your experiences of scary people coming up to you in the street? What did they say? How did you difuse the situation?
My own favourites include the man with a scarred head who claimed to know me and who followed me around a Bradford branch of Wilkinsons (I escaped from him by going up to a hard looking man and explaining the situation, asking him to pretend to know me until the scary one went away), and a man in Leeds who I walked past as he was hitting a lamppost who decided to walk home with me telling me how he bases himself on a character in the film The Football Factory and who told me how he loves fooball violence and "I hate pakkis and first year students". He was a second year student. I simply ran away when he went for a piss.
Best of all was the man in Doncaster who was going to kill me because "You're Kurdish, aren't you. You fucking are".
