Would you rather...?

The latter.

Would you rather live in an eternally smelly and small apartment with annoying nosy neighbors or not have a house at all?

The former, I guess.

Would you rather never drink water again or never drink milk again?

Tough, but I'll take the milk. Water is far more important.

Would you rather live with a hobo or have someone stalk you with bad intentions?

The stalker, only because, for me, the situation would be temporary. I would confront the stalker and put an end to it, one way or another. I would not want to live with someone who would drive me nuts for any protracted period of time.

Would you rather live a life of contemplation and solitude or a life full of crowds and overwhelming work that rewards you well but drives you nuts?

The former. I love having a life like that.

Would you rather be unlucky in love, constantly trying to find "the one," or unlucky when it comes to making friends?

It has been my experience that "life-long" friends really do not exist. You may be friends with someone for many years, but over time, as your life and that person's life inevitably changes, you will drift apart and you will each make new friends that better suits your life at that time. I guess that makes my answer the latter, for I would rather have "the one", as it is put.

Would you rather live in a house with a view of a mountain range or a view of the sea?

I love the sea, hate the mountains. So I guess I'll go with the sea. I love dolphins and my auntie's house in Florida has a view of the sea and if you come outside early in the morning, you can see the dolphins. It was amazing.

(You're right about that, Paul, about the "drifting apart" thing. It's already happening to me.)

Would you rather bathe in pancake syrup or melted ice cream?

Talk about being sticky afterward! I guess I will take the melted ice cream, if I can wash it off before it starts to stink. I don't think that will be quite as sticky.

Would you rather, after you have discovered it, have a star named after you or a species of animal named after you?

Both can die out, but I'll take the star. I love stars, and besides, it's pretty easy to make animals become endangered or extinct. Stars would probably take years before burning out.

Would you rather live during the "The Black Death" or "The Great Depression?"

The Great Depression. I would rather be destitute for a while, with a good chance of getting back on my feet in the future, than face almost certain death from a rampaging disease.

Would you rather have the ability to talk to animals or the ability to transport yourself from one place to another instantaneously?

Teleport. My life would be so much easier.

Would you rather have a big mansion with no TV and computer or a simple house with TV and comp?

I'll take the latter (which I already have!).

Would you rather not age but gain no more knowledge, or be able to understand everything and age twice as fast?

Understand everything and age twice as fast. Who cares about wrinkles when you've got brains?!

Would you rather be estranged from your parents or suffer from a painful and incurable disease?

I'll be estranged, as much as it would hurt me, because there is always a chance of reconciliation. There is no cure for "incurable".

Would you rather work as a chef or a chauffeur?

Chauffer. Cooking sounds fun, but I'm not good around sharp knives.

Would you rather marry someone twenty years younger than you (after they're born, if you're under twenty) or twenty years older than you?

Both are really creepy, but I'd take the younger. He'd still be good-looking while I rot in wrinkles, but what the hell!

Would you rather take 10 long math quizzes consecutively or drink beer nonstop for the next 1 hour?

I am perhaps the wrong one to answer that question...I'll leave it to you to discern my answer.

Would you rather have free reign to do whatever you wanted for an entire day or have a moderate dream realized over the course of a year?

Free reign. That would be so cool.

Would you rather work for Apple or Microsoft?

I don't know. It would depend on job security, a good benefits package, and decent pay.

Would you rather have front-row tickets to see your favorite performer in concert or be on hand to see your favorite actors shoot a scene for a movie?

I'd like the actors bit. I'm not much of a fan of concerts because most of the time you'd be standing up and the music is SO loud. Also, better chances of getting an autograph when you can see your favorite actor/actress shooting a scene.

Would you rather be betrayed by someone you trusted or be the one to betray?

Betrayed by someone I trust, because then I would still feel good about myself.

Would you rather live in a luxurious penthouse apartment in the city or a big, roomy house in the country?

Luxurious penthouse in the city. I dislike the countryside.

Would you rather give a speech in front of one million people or perform in America's Got Talent?

Give a speech in front of one million. I would rather mess up in front of one million than in front of a televised audience of several million.

Would you rather travel to distant worlds or invent something that makes you millions?

Hm, considering that both have consequences that could kill me, yet also have wonderful perks, I decided to choose to travel to distant worlds. I love traveling and it'd be interesting to see all those wonders out there.

Would you rather live an inhumanly boring and unexcited life or a life filled with never-ending drama?

I have no patience for drama. I'll take boring and try to make it interesting.

Would you rather learn how to pilot a plane or sail a sailboat?
