    I was thinking about this one. I think I would go with the baling hay. Sitting on my ass for 12 hours a day playing video games would not be good for my physical health or my eyesight. I think I would prefer the 6 hours of exercise baling hay. I would get used to it after a while and could listen to music the whole time.

    It's a tough one though isn't it?  
    I mean, I guess if you've never done the job it's a no-brainer but...fuck that's a shitty job.  It's miserably hot, hard, and dusty.  Physically exhausting and wrecks your hands, arms get all rashy even if you aren't allergic.  There's spiders everywhere, crawling up your arms and down your neck...I don't miss those days.

    What if I specify, no kicker, no elevator, and you are all-time ground guy?  Give me the video games, I'll work 4-12's and enjoy my other three days to the fullest.

    I worked as a laborer on a construction crew for a summer while in college.  
    I never wanted to go back to school so badly - leading into that summer I was bored. My father had a friend that owned a construction company and I found out later that he asked that I be put on a crew and made their dog.  Asked his friend to be sure I did the worst shit jobs all day, every day.
    At that time I weighed 135 pounds and for a week I carried forms that weighed damn near what I did.
    Went to bed as soon as I finished eating dinner every night 

    A lesson in humility and respect.



    Would you rather work bottom rung on a construction crew or eat a piece of shit for lunch, every day for a month?

    Bottom rung, baby!

    Now every question of mine involves shit :angry:

    Would you rather have the runs for a week or be backed up for the same duration?

    (damn you, F Me!) =)

    12 hours of fun or 6 hours of grinding labour is tough for you people? #weirdos

    I probably spent 12 hours with my friends in front of our nintendos by CHOICE back in our teens. when we'd rent a game for the weekend, there was almost no choice in the matter.

    We clearly had very different experiences growing up.  12 hours in front of a video game?  Sports, girls, work, family, etc...I likely maxed at an hour or two.  12 hours sounds like a gigantic waste of time, plus I don't think I could just sit there for 12 hours and not turn into a zombie.  I can do a lot of different shit in 6 hours I am not working, in this scenario.

    this was only for a brief period when we were too young to party and it was winter when it was too fucking cold to do anything else.
