The WHOPPER thread.

9 January 2017

Tell us your biggest whopper to date.

When I lived in Harrow i was leaving a newsagents when the door burst open knocking my water and Rolos out of my hand. I bent down to pick them up and the girl was apologising and as i looked at her it was Diana Princess of Wales. I said it was okay and said nae bother hen. I stood at my car to double check it was her and she clocked me and gave me a wink. True.

Was at a pub quiz at the Waterline in Leith a good few years ago with colleagues. Jeremy Beadle had died so I came up with the team name 'Give a small hand for Jeremy Beadle' which I thought was hilarious.

After a good few rounds and a good few beers the quizmaster just kept saying and it's 'Jeremy Beadle' on 10 points, Jeremy beadle on 29 points etc. I was a wee bit miffed at him ruining my fun so when I saw he was at the bar when I was getting a round in I chinned him. He explained that some people might get offended by the team name due to the nature of it. He then went on that he wasn't offended and raised a wee Beadle-esque hand too. What are the fcking chances of that. I was so embarrassed I made my excuses, headed to the gents and waited until the bar was clear.

What made it worse was my then manager was up helping me get the round in and he buckled with laughter in front of the guy.

I slagged a guy that had just broke up with his missus because he had a bent eye.
Asked him if he'd been seeing someone on the side.
Told him not to cry, as he might get his back wet.

I thought i was being hilarious, there was about 5 of us in the pub together and a guy i knew but wasnt close to didn't laugh... Then showed a picture of his bent eyed daughter.

I was mortified.
