I got asked on a round table thing like that to give my name and an interesting fact.
So I listened to a load of other idiots give their name and say something like "oh I love ironing" "I'm a black belt in origami"
It came round to me and I gave my name and the only thing I could think of was "I have the exact same size hands as the Yorkshire ripper"
Didn't get a laugh, got asked how I knew this so I said there was a waxwork of him in Luis Tussauds in Blackpool, got some shitarse tell me there wasn't, I told her there was as he was something of a celebrity in those parts, got asked to leave, thanked lucky stars, then got sent into another group where we all had to male up a song about our lives, lost will to live

About 5 years ago I had the misfortune to have an evening out with a an old girlfriend who I thought I may have a chance with again. She introduced me to this bloke (an old friend of hers from school) & no word of a lie he comes out with ........"Hi, I'm Mike and I'm a Paedophile". Funny ??? not.0 -

I dont think alcohol, food and sleep are exactly what they're after but thats what they're getting.7 -
I was saw a clip once of the classic team building exercise of being blindfolded and being told to fall and the others will catch you.
All was going well but the clip ends as phone/camera is dropped as the woman starts falling forwards instead of backwards and the bloke filming rushes to try and stop her face planting the floor.6 -
All work trainings (manual handling, report writing, staff supervision, tongues tanning etc') whereby the first hour is taken by the bouncy presenter telling us the long list of wanks to come.
And you sit there glazed eyes as your dream of early finish is buried under a pile of merciless butcher's papers.1 -

GQ men. These are men that live their life according to what is advertised to them in GQ. Fashion, style, music taste, what they will do at the weekend. I know a few and I think to myself, why?0

The term 'pre-owned'. We had at least three good workable ways of saying this before the marketing gurus decided that pre-owned somehow sounded better; as if the goods in question had just been sitting unused in someone's cupboard. Second-hand, used and old are all perfectly good terms. We don't need the duplicity of pre-owned. Whatever next, hitherto purchased?4
