DIY Techno-hacks
Old hard drive platters make wonderfully good drinks coasters - they look dead smart and expensive and you've stopped people reading your old data into the bargain.
Have you taped all your remotes together, peep-show-style? Have you wired your doorbell to the toilet? What enterprising DIY have you done with technology?
Extra points for using sellotape rather than solder.

Fucked exhaust
A few of us drove to the beach a few weeks ago.
After performing several half arsed hand brake turns on the beach (my slightly chavvy mate) decided it was time to go home.
Cue the exhaust deciding to lose a bolt and hang down, scraping violently on the road and causing him no undue amounts of stress as it was his sisters car and he was going to get in a LOT of trouble if he was found with any damage on the offending vehicle.
Luckily one of my other quick thinking mates had a bright idea and remembered he had a fair sized length of rope in the boot and decided to tie the exhaust under the car and then back over the roof and into the front passenger window, where another mate could hold the car together as we drove home.
It worked too...

It's not just you, a lot of people use it.
It's a fucking awful word, there's no need to be using it.

A lot of people try to use it
But end up with "queue" or even "que".
