Chatting to a bird at the pub
All going well. She asked me what my name was and I replied absolutely deadpan 'Well, up until the age of 10 it was Jon Venables.'

Dirty look and conversation over.

I've no idea where this came from, I wasn't trying to make a joke, I've never used that before - it was just the first thing that came to my head. It just came from nowhere. It was like I was cock-blocked by a momentary demonic possession.

AHAHHAHAHAHAHAAA
I shall have to remember this one.

I went speed dating once, about four years ago, and this girl asked me to tell her a joke (big mistake, I have the Sickipedia app). I regurgitated the Colin McRae/Crash in the woods joke, telling the punchline just as the bell to move on rang.

She just sat there open mouthed as I got up and moved to the next girl. She still ticked me though.

"Don't wait up for us, we're gonna crash in the woods tonight!"

What a morbid way to make my first ever post!
He was flying a helicopter when it crashed killing him and his passengers which included his five year old son and his son's friend.

It was sad. :(
