Worst Christmas present ever?

ellepo @ellepo (11) 23 Dec 07

With Xmas looming, we all know that inevitably we will get those gifts that are well-meaning (we should all be thankful!) but utterly useless. What's the worst present you've ever received, and why?

What do you like to take photographs of best? Why? I personally like taking pictures of flowers with macro on my camera, but I like portrait shots too. How about you?

ellepo Children are good topics as they are usually really natural in photos :) Thanks for the comment.

ellepo I just read this on the BBC website - I was a bit surprised by a few, but then we can't say that these are true themselves, like it mentions about cot deaths at the bottom. I knew the water one, as its completely relative to a person. some can get by on 3 or 4...

ellepo I like jam or honey usually. But if I'm in a more savoury mood I'll go for peanut butter or just plain butter. Cheese and jam together is nice too :) I hate Marmite or anything like that so that's a no-no.

How sick do you have to be before you call in sick?

sharra1 @sharra1 (6340) • Australia 14 Dec 07

I am curious why people are so reluctant to call in sick. I have had problems with workers who come into work sick and spread it to the rest of the office. My boss would try to send them home because they are a risk to the staff...

Drinking age too high/low?

ellepo @ellepo (11) 14 Dec 07

Do you think the drinking age is at the right level in your country? Here in the UK it is 18 and there have been talks of raising it higher but my friends generally think that's ridiculous. However in the US and Japan it is 21 (I...

ellepo Of course it all depends on marketing and reputation, so it can vary, but I would say clothing is a pretty good market - especially hand-made or designer. That and rare collectible items, we sold quite a few coins and stamps on there very quickly, with lots of...

Ok, I sit here and tell you about the big drug party I'm planning for New Year's eve and all the good stuff I got to share with my friends. I might even go as far as giving out my phone number for any members who live any where...

ellepo It's moderately likely. They could find you out one of two ways - someone ringing up the FBI/Police, them checking it out and then finding out your IP address and thus your house address. And the police do monitor online discussions and search for 'buzz words'...
