Would you rather...?

I would rather be bald for a day. I've always wondered how that lightness felt!

Would you rather pierce your tongue or chop off a finger?

Ouch! Pierce my tongue, I guess. I like my fingers right where they are.


Would you rather eat bland food for the rest of your life or endure bland books and movies for the rest of your life?

Bland food. At least I can survive on that, being vegetarian as I am.

Would you rather dress in the opposite gender for a day, or be naked for a day?

I'll take being in drag for a day.


Would you rather dress up in fine clothes all the time or dress up in rags all the time?

Fine clothes. Then I can sell whatever I don't need!

Would you rather live in a ratty little apartment, or a giant mansion---but have no servants to help keep the house clean (you'll need to do it yourself)

Well, if I can't keep it clean, I would still rather live in a ratty giant mansion than a ratty little apartment.


Would you rather be confined to a chair all day or be forced to stay on your feet all day?

Confined to a chair. Comfort come first.

Would you rather walk out of a public bathroom with toilet paper hanging out your pants or with your fly unzipped?

People may not notice the unzipped fly right away, and once you realize it's open it is easy to remedy. I'll take that.


Would you rather be confined to your house for a week or spend a week anywhere but at home?

Confined to my house, thanks. My city is pretty boring, and that's the most likely place I will ever be 'outside'. At least my computer provides me with a link to the outside world.


Would you rather get beaten or watch, powerless, as someone else got beaten?

I'll take the beating, especially if the other person was someone I cared about.


Would you rather see a circus or go to an amusement park?

Amusement park. I don't like clowns very much.

Would you rather see a clown or an angry bear?

It depends on whether or not the bear can see me and if it's hungry or not.

Would you rather live in a place where it's always raining or always in a drought?

Always raining. There's something more depressing about drought than water for me.

Would you rather be an insufferable know-it-all or a twit?

Insufferable know-it-all. I've been called a know-it-all before, so I might as well stick with what I'm familiar with.

Would you rather speak Latin or Chinese?

Latin. Most languages I'd come in contact with are Latin-based. Though Chinese would be useful.

Would you rather wear flip-flops or sandals?

I am not fond of either type of footwear, but I guess I would choose sandals as the lesser of two evils.


Would you rather have the ability to heal bodies or heal minds?

Heal bodies, I suppose. My own mind isn't healed, so I don't see how I could fix anybody else's mind.

Would you rather die unexpectedly or know in advance your death date?

That's an interesting one. If I knew my death date I would probably fight against its inevitable coming and drive myself insane. I guess I'll stick with not knowing.


Would you rather have command of all languages or the power to transport yourself anywhere at will?

Oh, I like this one. I think I would actually prefer to have command of all languages. Having the ability to go anywhere at a whim sounds nice, but what would I do when I got to Mexico and I couldn't parle espagnol?

Would you rather have enormous feet or a hairy mole on your cheek?

(Sorry, out of ideas here. )

I know the feeling about being out of ideas.

I already have big feet (size 12), so I guess I will stick with that.

Would you rather (um, let's see...) be stuck in a room with a rotting garbage bag or someone smoking a big cigar?

Ick, I think I'll take the garbage. I really dislike the smell of cigarette/cigar smoke. It lingers, too; all over your clothes.

Would you rather be addicted to cigarettes or addicted to alcohol?

Hmmm... Cigarettes, I suppose. At least then I could live a semi-normal life and quit without professional help.

Would you rather be out of ideas or have never had them in the first place?

I would like to give myself the credit of having ideas at one point or another, so I'll say running out of them.

Would you rather bargain with an enemy for a minor gain or ignore him/her for a moderate loss?

I would bargain with that enemy for a minor gain.

Would you rather live in fear or fear living?

If I live in fear I still have the chance of conquering that fear. If I fear living it is like giving up. I'll take the former.


Would you rather meet your favorite author or your favorite band?
