Have you ever been rude to a celebrity?Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

It's Wac-a-day, no School today, so what you gonna do?Whilst working for a now defunct major ISP, one of the guys on the phones near me got a call from Mr. Saturday himself, Timmy Mallett.
Timmy was having none of this subordinate and demanded to speak to a Supervisor. The agent duly transferred him (or so he thought) and took the opportunity to mention to his colleague what a "Arrogant little Prick" Mr Mallett was, at which point he realised he'd not transferred him at all but said it right into his lughole.
Obvioulsy being the king of kids TV rudeness, Timmy took this all in his stride and yelled at our CS Manager demaning free connectivity and a state of the art 28.8k Modem.
He got them, but not a bonk on the head.
