The Nate Gatsby  (macenro) | 97 comments My college friends and I would sometimes fill our time with asking crazy hypothetical questions to each other. It was usually a pretty good time.

Example questions:

How many first graders to you think you could take on in a fight the death?

How many cavemen do you think it would take to defeat a single tank?

Or we would ask the patented "would you rather...?" questions.

Examples:

Would you be rather be on a desert island with someone you hate or alone?

I thought it might be fun to start a thread like this. Either answer a question or ask your own.

I'll even ask a question that is made just for you.

Would you rather live in a world without Harry Potter (books/movies/anything) or live in a world in which you were the only person alive?


The Nate Gatsby  (macenro) | 97 comments Would you rather only be able to read the same book (can be your favorite) over and over again, or be able to read any book you want but not able to read the ending?

April | 35 comments Would you rather live in the city or the country?


The Nate Gatsby  (macenro) | 97 comments April wrote: "Would you rather live in the city or the country?"

The city because I've lived in the country most of my life and it can get so dull.

If you had to marry a zombie, what dead celebrity/historical figure would you choose?


message 9: by Rachel (new)

Rachel I love these random questions.

- Read a new book every time, so I can create my own endings.
- Never speak
- Live in the city


Would you rather live in a place permanently cold or permanently hot

I grew up outside so I can stand both, but I hate the bees mainly 'cause I'm allergic so I'd go with permanently cold.

Ick to both, if I was stuck anywhere with an actor or singer I would prefer Eoin Macklin.

Definitely ick to those 2 choices. I'd happily be stranded with Adrian Paul or Sean Connery though (swoons)

Worst enemy, you'd have no choice but to work through your differences & could actually become friends after the issues were worked out.

I've lived in both, grew up on a farm in DE, & have been stationed in big cities. Give me the country any day, I can drive to the city if I wanted to see it, LOL

Different books, sometimes you can predict the endings anyway, or you have the choice to make up your own endings :)

I would say definately someplace that is always cold, since I can't stand hot weather! :)

Oooh, this is a good one too! As much fun as it would be to be stuck on an island with your best friend, I think is would be much more interesting/exciting to be stuck on one with your secret crush! :) *sighs dreamily* Just think of all the possibilities! :P

Permanently cold (although I already live in a place where is cold 10 months of the year xD). I can't stand temperatures beyond 22ºC. I become a useless puppet lying in the floor asking for mercy. No kidding, I hate it.
I'm fit to live in places like Winterfell :D (from A song of ice and fire)

Sarah (electrahearts) Nathan wrote: "Would you rather be young forever, or be forever reborn whenever you die?"

young forever. it would be extremely dull to live the same life over and over, even if you can choose to do things differently each time around. if you're young forever, sure you have to deal with the people around you getting old and dying, but you have all the time in the world to do everything you could ever want which you might not have been capable of if you aged. that, and i don't want to get any older, haha.

I think I rather get to keep being reborn. You could do a bunch of different things. Plus it would get really awkward to marry if you were forever young. After awhile they get old and since you are still young you are going to want to do young things still.

Would you rather not be able to taste or not be able to hear?

As much as I love reading; I say go without reading. Books eventually become movies or TV series.

The Pirate Ghost (Formerly known as the Curmudgeon) (pirateghost) Fly like a bird! (You kiddin... Fly like an Eagle... to the sea... time keeps on slippin slippin slippin)

If you contracted an incurable condition or disease, and it was posible, would you rather be frozen until a cure is available or have your brain (personality/memories) transfered into a robot/android? (Technically a Cyborg I think)

shorter than a mouse... there are times when I need not to be seen...

Would you rather be rich for 23 hours or live forever but never amassing a wealth greater than one dollar each day? (and no they don't "rollover") Each day always begin at 1.
