In honour of the 1st, we're revisiting the "deliberately flameworthy hypothetical AskMe question thread" over at MetaChat. Feel free to join in with fake questions or answers.

What about cross-dressing posts?

One long thread where people offer their own stupid questions? Fuck that. I want the same questions, each in their own thread, with comments enabled. I had some good answers for the kitten question(s), dammit!

I can't login to metachat (I lost my password), but I've wanted to add this one all day:

Whilst slumming amongst the poor, I have noted that the proles have a distinctive smell. What exactly is it? [More inside]

I've noticed the smell is stronger amongst the minority of them that perform manual labor beyond merely cashing their welfare cheques. This noisome odor is vaguely similar to the scent I acquire when rowing crew or riding to hounds, but distinctly more pungent and far less pleasant. What could it be?

noisome odor

Colorful choice of words.

A MeFi v MeCha competition of some sort is a swimmingly wondrous idea. I've got $5 says seanyboy takes out Balisong in syrup wrestling in under five minutes.
