This is a question Winning

I once won a gas boiler from The Guardian. Tell us about times you've won, and the excellent and/or crappy prizes you've lifted.

There's a geek at work who's always quoting sci-fi references.
Sometimes he prompts people to acknowledge them, saying "No? Anyone? Deep Space Nine?" or whatever.

What is fantastic is he claims he has to.
He's in his late 40s, speaks in a monotone, is rudely sarcastic, only ever wears old stained t-shirts and tracksuit trousers, and is nicknamed Catweazle behind his back due to his apparent hygiene allergy.

If given the opportunity he will tell you about all the women he's shagged, and how all gay men fancy him.

What's amusing is, he's for real. I maintain that if you'd written his character into The Office, it would have been binned for being too unrealistic.

EDIT: Incidentally, this story is absolute win, by the way, and I've clicked it because it's ace and well-told.

Not so much "work", as
"hang around outside, waiting to follow you home"
