Would you rather...

hauntingfamiliar

It's usually more fun with PJ/music people.

WYR... *both happened to me this week

Be under a water advisory where you are not allowed to drink, cook or even boil your water
Or
Have a hot water heater that is broken, needs a replacement and spews water when it's turned on.

oftenreading

How about option C, moving?

(sorry to hear about your sucky week)

Would you rather receive a brand new electric vehicle or a vintage sports car as a gift? 

brianlux

Electric vehicle.

Would you rather have one 200 Watt amp or four 50 Watt amps?

hedonist

I don't know from amps, so I'm guessing the ultimate wattage is the same but distributed differently?  If so, I would take the latter.

WYR have wildflowers or a manicured yard around your home space?

(B, I admit to selfishness and sweet indulgence - give me the vintage car any day!  Leno, Seinfeld and the Velocity channel have convinced me.)

*and PS to HF - holler if you need a case or two of bottled water sent

brianlux

^^^ Gotta admit, the vintage car was tempting.  Now if that vintage car were a 1964 Riley 1.5 (one of which I once owned and will forever regret selling dirt cheap in 1972)  it would be this vintage pregnant roller skate:

hauntingfamiliar

^ That's a neat looking pregnant rollerskate!

Ha ha thanks for condolences and water offer I now have a brand new hot water heater and the no drinking/cooking advisory has been lifted as the water treatment plant flushed the excess fluoride out of the water. Hey at least we got a free flouride treatment!   

Hedo I like the idea of yard full of wildflowers!! When my daughter was younger I used to point out the wildflowers to her when we passed them on the road. One day when we were driving past them she pointed them out to me for a change and said "Mommy, look at those craaaazzzy flowers!" I laughed so hard. We still tease her about that and wildflowers have forever been renamed craaazzzy flowers in my family.

If you wouldn't be charged for it....WYR raid the mini bar in your hotel room or have first dibs on your kids Halloween candy?

hedonist

Sweet memories, HF

I would totally hit up the mini-bar (plus they probably have candy in there too).

WYR, for a day, be a bird or a fish?

SmallestOceans

Bird. You’d be living the life flying around, attacking for food in flocks at the beach, and shitting all over the people from above. 

If something happened to Matt Cameron and he couldn’t continue drumming for PJ, who would you rather have as the new drummer... Barrett Martin, Carter Beauford, or Dave Grohl?

My sister sent us (via a friend) Thanksgiving dinner for two last week.  It was WAY more the we would want to eat at one meal so we had Thanksgiving dinner for two... three nights in a row.  My wife is over it.  I love it.

So I asked her, "If you could only have traditional Thanksgiving dinner (you know, turkey, stuffing, gravy, yams, salad, pie) to eat every day for a year,  or you could only have Spam, prepared anyway you like, and vegetables every day for a year, which would you choose?"

I couldn't believe her answer.  Yes, SPAM!!! 

I looked at her in shock and said, "Really?" 

She said, "Oh yeah, hands down."

"OK, ah huh."

So there's the challenge, folks.  What will it be- Thanksgiving dinner only for one year, or Spam and veggies only for one year?

P.S.  I love my kooky wife, but oh my gawd- SPAM?

That's tough, but I'd go spam too.  I couldn't eat the se thing every day...spam sucks, but you could still do asian, mexican, and italian style meals...

WYR look like a magazine cover and be so weak you could barely walk around and tie your shoes, or look like a sack of garbage and feel like an elite athlete?

I’ll go with feel over look, every time!

Being as I just backspaced over a rather morbid question, would you rather be subjected to only dark humor for life, or the frivolous, nonthinking and lighter variety?

ConorKavanagh

Dark humor is the only humor!

Would you rather eat eggshells every day for a month and nothing else, or smell like eggs for 6 months?

Well that's an easy one, eating egg shells would be like torture and fresh eggs don't have a smell at all lol

WYR be blind or deaf? 

rgambs

I think that one definitely has a right and wrong answer lol

deaf. i think being blind would be scary

It would, and life would be so different and hard.  So, so many things that you don't realize you need sight for, beyond just moving around the world. 
I know music lovers (like my father) who say they'd rather be blind than live without music and I think the answer to this one separates realists from idealists...

you can still "feel" the music. that's the difference to me.

I wish I could find the tumblr I read through one day of people asking family members how blind people do everyday tasks...there were hundreds of things you'd never think of that become impossible.  The one that I remember is when someone asked, when you wipe your ass, how do you know when it's clean? 
The answer was that you never do know, you just overuse toilet paper or buy a bidet...that stuck with me.

Get paid $500/day to play video games for 12 hours or get paid $500/day to bale hay for 6 hours?
