This is a question Question of the Week suggestions

Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:

* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer

What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, gluttony.

Sounds like a good night out to me, but let's hear your tales of sinning against one (or more!) of these.

Or, you could suggest some new ones...

Things from B3ta that have appeared in real life
At a wedding last week a guest eating her starter commented "My soup doesn't look too happy..." to which I immediately shouted "SAD SOUP!" much to the confusion of everyone else present. What things from B3ta have you seen in or brought to the real world?

your most boring story.
what's your favourite anecdote - peppered with people nobody else knows or cares about, replete with wonky narrative, unnecessary exposition and unwarranted self-importance?

then the mods can simply ban everyone from qotw except for ringofyre, have a bottle of scotch fed-exed to his house and we can all get on with our lives.

Lie Amnesty
Admit to all the unconvincing sex lies you've told in previous weeks. We'll all pretend it didn't happen and you can scrape back a little of that dignity you've been bleeding onto the internet for the last few years.

Getting someone else fired
A recent incident when I forgot to NSFW a link on twitter that Rob Manuel clicked at work (I would have though "double fisting to glory" would be enough of a warning) got me thinking, have you ever gotten someone else fired and not yourself? Saying "you're fired" to someone else does not count, it has to be from something you did.

Mugs.
I've got an Avengers mug, and two heat-sensitive Tetris/Pac-man mugs.
The Avengers one is mine, nobody else is allowed to use it, ever. The other two are given to guests based on how much I like them. Pac-man means I like you more than if you got Tetris. If you have neither, then stay about from my house.

What sperglordery do you indulge in, even though you're obviously perfectly normal and not a creepy internet weirdo?

Spastic shitcuntery
Basically just controversial beliefs again, but this time with the acknowledgement that you're a despicable racist/sexist/fascist cunt who shouldn't be allowed to interact with society.

Controversial beliefs
I would like to start by saying that I haven't considered all the outcomes, and there are probably many downsides that I haven't considered. As an open minded person I would welcome any arguments for or against this.

But it is my opinion that breeding should be licensed, and people should not be allowed to reproduce without proving that they are financially and emotionally capable of raising a child properly.

Consider the oxfam adverts showing thousands of starving children in under developed countries. I think the parents knew what fate their progeny would be subject to long before conception.

I don't think it should be specific to 3rd world countries either. How many people in the UK are firing out babies just so they can abuse the benefit system?

Does this make me racist toward the human race? Is that genocide? I don't know.

I reserve the right to change my opinion in light of new facts I haven't considered being brought forward by your lovely selves

Class war
Tell us how real and working class you are and how your favourite song is Common People by Pulp and you can really relate to The Royle Family because that's just like how it was growing up in your house.

Alt: tell us how shamefully middle-class you are and how your parents gave you the best upbringing and bought you the best education they could, only for you to piss it right up against the wall.
