We all know this game. I don't feel like explaining the rules. Pretty much you ask, "Would you rather do this or that?". Except, for our purposes, we should attempt to keep the questions kind of serious. Not serious but not incredibly off the wall.
I'll start with something I've been thinking about.
Would you rather know that God does not exist and continue to go to a church only for the comfort of having somewhere to go or live in ignorance? This assumes that you are a Christian and already go to church. Also, new research comes out disproving the existence of God and you have no choice but to believe it.
First person should answer the question and then repost another question.
-
So.... only Christian church goers can answer this question?
-
You gain 50 experience.
You've leveled up.
+50 to health.
+2 to Needless Asshole ability.
-
The OP is still kind of confusing, regardless of assholery.
-
I pick dare.
-

No, I'm seriously not entirely sure what he wants.
-
See that depends on the specifics for me. I would be fine with killing I just don't have that much free time to run around murdering shit. If someone would bring a cow to my door and say "Here, pop a cap in this motherfucker and I'll cut you some steak" I'd be down but otherwise it might just be a prohibitive amount of work so I'd go to vegetarianism out of convenience.
WOULD YOU Rather win $500 off a lottery ticket or earn $50,000 for investing in dirty energy for the future?
-
guys I think we might be overthinking this game
-
I would prefer to be responsible for killing my meat. It would both cut down on how much meat I would eat by greatly increasing the time it would take to do prepare it, save me money and quite honestly probably be better quality! Of course I have no problem with the concept of where my meat comes from, so I have a one up over a few folks I know.
That's just we have a clear cut answer.
$500 Ticket because goddamn if $500 won't help me out anyways.
Would you rather make good and important decisions that will end up being good long term but will be hated for during your life time, or make terrible short term decisions that will be great and celebrated initially but have terrible consequences long term.
-
This is running on the assumption that I will be at some point acknowledged after death, I would take the long-term goodness.
As a musician, would you rather live comfortably (a lá Sven) writing bad songs and living comfortably, or writing music you truly feel good about and being a starving artist?
-
Yes.
Would you rather get drunk on a Friday night, or stay home on the forums?
-
Tommy, thank you. He has the right idea. I'm sorry for the confusing OP. It all made sense in my head. The last few posts have been doing it right. Pretty much, you go to the last post in the thread with an unanswered question beginning with, "Would you rather..." and you answer it, preferably in detail. And then in the same post, you ask a new question in the same form.
As most of us, when we are not being assholes, are intelligent and open minded, we should try to avoid simple questions such as, "Would you rather have anal intercourse with Tommy or Jimmy?" Rather, we should post questions that might make the answerer think.
If you don't understand the question, simply don't answer the question.
Stay home on the forums.
Because I'm cool.
Would you rather know that your significant other is having sex with people other than just you or have a peaceful relationship only to find out about his other partners later?
-
Tommy.
I'm fine with my s/o being with other people as long as there is openness and honesty to the relationship.
Yes.
Would you rather get drunk on a Friday night, or stay home on the forums?
I can't do both?
Would you rather...erm, lose a hand or lose a leg?
-
A leg! I am pretty sure that it would be easier to get used to not walking or using a prosthetic leg than it would to only doing things with one hand/using a prosthetic hand-hook thingy.
Would you rather have anal intercourse with Tommy or Jimmy?
-
A leg! I am pretty sure that it would be easier to get used to not walking or using a prosthetic leg than it would to only doing things with one hand/using a prosthetic hand-hook thingy.
Would you rather have anal intercourse with Tommy or Jimmy?
Tommy
Also, fuck you.
Classic question: Would you rather be blind or deaf?
-
Blind. I can still operate instruments by feel alone.
Erm. Hm.
Would you rather listen to Creed or Attack Attack! all day?
-
I watched my great-grandmother slaughter a chicken when I was wee! It was super gross and I don't remember it that clearly, but dinner was fried chicken. (It was really good.) Also I remember being completely fascinated by the pig-slaughtering process described in Little House in the Big Woods. Also my uncle used to hunt deer using the archery method. So I think I could manage my own meat!
I like that one.
-
There is a giant penis in your signature.
-
attack attack!, there is much more to make fun of and i like to think maybe i could use the overwhelming hatred to be productive, like a renewable energy source.
would you rather be completely healthy for the rest of your life, or never pay taxes again for the rest of your life?
-
I want to be healthy, tax ain't so bad.
Would you rather have sex with Miley Cyrus or Taylor Swift?
-
would you rather be completely healthy for the rest of your life, or never pay taxes again for the rest of your life?
Is this a commentary on socialized medicine?
-
could be! it was an actual question from a "would you rather" board game i played with my friends a few months ago.
i said healthy but everybody else said taxes. i think taxes are pretty okay, but maybe when i am older and have more responsibilities and life becomes difficult forever i might change my mind.
-
I'd rather be healthy and pay taxes. But I'd also rather more of that tax money went towards making sure other people could stay healthy rather than, say, shooting at people in foreign deserts. I'd also rather live in a country and society where "We're going to lower taxes more than the other lot!" wasn't the go-to position for both major political parties.
But I digress.
-
Taylor Swift.
Also I am vegetarian anyway, so the meat choice is quite obvious for me :)
Would you rather spend the next 30 years of your life wearing nothing but a potato sack and living on the streets where people will feel pity on you and give you just enough money to live relatively comfortably, or living in a billion pound/dollar house with everybody hating you for your whole existence?
-
Rich hated people usually end up dead. That said, I'd rather be rich than a dependent. If I was actually outright liked, grudgingly admired or considered notorious for my lifestyle ala Diogenes, it'd be a closer call, but being pitied isn't far enough away from being treated with contempt for my liking.
Would you rather find love or accomplish something that bettered mankind?
-
Probably betterment of mankind right now, though I think I'd rather just find a way to better myself than take your options there.
Would you rather ride your bike through the snow in the winter or drive a hummer with no AC or open-able windows in the summer?
-
"find" love
snnrrk
I think walking would probably be better than either. Also, is it a Hum-V, or one of those horrible H2s or H3s that serve no purpose other than for a soccer mom driving something that looks badass but is actually completely not and is also pointless?
-
bike! i walk everywhere, so owning a bike would actually be a big improvement.
would you rather walk in on your parents having sex or have your parents walk in on you having sex?
-
Walk in on my parents, just to know that maybe they're still happy together.
Would you rather never have to wash dishes ever again or never have to clean your room ever again?
-
i like cleaning my room more than i like washing dishes, and it doesn't involve mold nearly as often, so probably washing dishes.
would you rather dedicate the next five years of your life to an important cause and make a massive difference yet never be able to take any credit for it, or keep living exactly the same life you have right now?
-
Honestly those sound a bit like the same option to me, not because I'm dedicating myself to a cause right now, but rather because both of them seem to imply that the next 5 years will all be the same. I'll take whatever option allows me to do a bunch of different stuff.
Would you rather have a reputation for throwing amazing parties or a reputation for being a guest who reliably makes parties awesome?
-
The first by far. First of all I work for a stupid bank and I can't help out people who truly need it, so right now I'm an asshole, plus my most rewarding experience before was when I interned at a non profit (http://movies.msn.com/movies/article.aspx?news=415257>1=28101) that served underserved youth in the area. I interviewed the kids, took them on trips, treated them like normal kids the age they actually are, stopped fights between former child soldiers and kind of served as a go between for the two neighborhoods that were served (dramatically different populations, I worked in each one about equally)
Would you rather! Eat only one thing for the rest of your life, but you love, or eat something different every day that you don't really like?
PS f u Joe sneakin in there
I would rather be the guest, because going to parties and making them awesome is way better than having to clean up after your own party.
-
I am the lame guy and I would probably eat spaghetti in meat sauce with grated cheddar cheese on top and garlic toast on the side for the rest of my life.
I would much rather be the guy throwing excellent parties. My happiest parties are when my living room is full of people having a good time and I am bustling back and forth between the crowd and the kitchen and/or barbecue and maybe there are one or two people hanging out with me doing the food work. It makes me ultra happy to be the host. I am still kind of anti-social but I like when I can bring people together for a good time and feed them.
Would you rather become totally colour-blind (talking old-school grayscale monitor or maybe sepia-toned life) or hear everything below a certain frequency (say, the A string on a bass) as muffled, indistinct noise?
-
Maybe Achewood is my alter ego? Living how I want to live? Maybe I never get it because the other me has drilled into me an innate fear of it so I never discover who I am and what I've done?
-

I was standing in my backyard today as the sun set, watching the colours fade from the world and admiring the leaves and grass in a grayscale, and actually rather wished that I could live my life seeing only whites, blacks, and shades of grey.
And I am obsessed with music.
This one was so very easy.
Would you rather spent the rest of your life having great sex with someone you don't like, or unsatisfying sex with someone you like?
-
Disregarding the weirdness of "great sex with someone I don't like," that's probably the option I'd choose. I can appreciate the people I really love in any number of ways, and good sex is important to me because it relieves tension that would otherwise make it hard for me to be as generous to my friends as possible.
Would you rather perform oral sex on a member of the sex you are least attracted towards, or engage in sex that is kinkier than you would prefer with a member of the sex you're more attracted towards? (Assume both people are attractive.)
-
when you say kinkier than you prefer do you mean similar to what your own preferences are, but taken to an extreme or just a kink that does nothing for you?
-
Considering my sexual tendencies, kinkier than I prefer would be probably disturbing and illegal.
And I like both genders about equally, so, I'll go with that one.
Eurgh. Would you rather only answer these questions or ask them? (Sorry, I can't think of many good ones)
-
Ask them.
Would you rather have sexual intercourse with Margaret Thatcher, or Halle Berry after she's been dead for 48 hours?
-
How well preserved is the body?
(Either of them)
-
Halle's been left in Tommy's bedroom for all 48 hours.
-
i like my sexual intercourse to be consensual, so i'd have to go with margaret thatcher.
would you rather slap every member of attack attack! on the face or single out just one to kick in the genitals as hard as you can? (no more questions about attack attack! after this, i promise)
-
As I don't Know Attack Attack, I would try to follow the tennants they set out in their title and attack all of them.
Would you rather: Punch clean through the chest of Paris Hilton or Hadouken the entirety of the pussy cat dolls of a high rise building?
-
I think it would be far more satisfying watching the Pussycat Dolls flail to their demise.
Would you rather: eat a gram of my poop or drink 4 litres of my piss?
-
although both are pretty smelly activities, drinking urine is actually far safer and cleaner than eating poop, which is riddled with bacteria like e. coli that even in tiny quantities can make you extremely ill and sometimes kill you! i'll go with the pee. tasty, tasty pee.
would you rather be missing a finger on each hand or have an extra finger on each hand?
if it factors into the decision process at all, polydactyly is a dominant trait so your future kids are probably going to have an extra finger too.
-
If I had an extra finger, I'd learn to play guitar and out-play everyone.
Would you rather shoot a girl scout that tries to sell you cookies at the door in the head (boom, instant death), or run over her entire 15-girl scout group/platoon/whatever (death and dismemberment count unknown)?
-
Just the one, to see the look in her eyes as he head explodes, sweeet.
Would you rather be raped by one 20 inch penis or two 10 inch penises?
-
One at a time or a gangbang? Be clear about the raping.
-
Both at once, however they see fit.
-
One at a time or a gangbang? Be clear about the raping.
New sig.
Considering I have not spent my life stretching certain orifices, I'm gonna have to go with two 10-inchers, as I could take them in different holes. I'm pretty sure forcing a 20-inch anywhere would do permanent damage?
Would you rather be able to view the entire internet at less-than-56k speeds, or only be able to pick 5 pages for the rest of your life that would load instantly? (Maybe make that 10 if that's too ridiculous...)
-
Definitely the second one, I don't venture out my usual internet haunts that much.
Boxers or Briefs, give your reasons.
-
can i answer the question even though i am a lady?
i wear briefs because i hate almost every other form of lady underwear, and i guess i like briefs better than boxers on dudes too. boxers may be more comfortable but briefs do wonderful things to butts everywhere.
would you rather be caught having sex with a horse and have it make newspaper headlines all over the town you live in, or be sexually assaulted by a horse in privacy and be able to choose whether or not to let anyone know about it?
oh my god this is a terrible question i really need to work on making posts that aren't about sex with horses
-
I would fuck the shit out of that horse and let everybody know what's what.
I'd release it as a sex tape called Brokeback Mountain 2.
Would you rather be responsible for the deaths of 100 orphans or 1000 puppies?
-
The puppies. Fuck off, PETA.
Would you rather have a sword thrust through your stomach or through your chest (right side)?
-
Stomach. Seems like it would hurt less.
Would you rather hurt someone to keep from being hurt, or hurt yourself to spare someone else pain?
-
Ehhh, I'd hurt myself.
Would you rather be a vegetarian or a carnivore?
-
Carnivore. Try harder.
Would you rather spend the rest of your life having your mother buy your clothing, with no input from you, or your significant other?
edit: I mean, or have your SO buy your clothing, same condition. Yeah...
-
Significant Other. Actually, her clothes make me look skinnier.
Would you rather be able to talk but you can't hear others talk, or hear others talk but you can't reply?
-
Carnivore. Try harder.
Would you rather spend the rest of your life having your mother buy your clothing, with no input from you, or your significant other?
edit: I mean, or have your SO buy your clothing, same condition. Yeah...
No question, my SO. The only problem would be squeezing into the impossibly tight jeans she'd buy.
-
Would you rather be able to talk but you can't hear others talk, or hear others talk but you can't reply?
ASL is not verbal, so I don't have to count that, right.
-
ASL doesn't count.
-
Ok I would pick the hear others one, because I am creative enough to make up my own means of speech-less communication and also already know sign language anyway, so woo. My linguistics studies might be a little bit interrupted, though, because I couldn't learn the native sounds as well anymore (you have to make them properly to really understand them).
Also I would probably learn shorthand, just because. Maybe I should do that anyway.
Ok here is a question: Would you rather have uni classes (or some other equivalent obligation) 4 days per week, with the amount of outside work [at home] averaging around 5 to 6 hours per night, and have work for 10-12 hours per day the other three days, so basically absolutely no free time or social life to speak of; OR have the same uni schedule with the same workload but not have the job and thus have no income?
Student loans is not an acceptable answer.
-
I'd not work, and sell drugs for income. If I couldn't do that, though, I'd probably work. Income is important.
If you broke up with your SO and they started dating your sibling, would you rather it be an older or younger sibling?
-
I would fuck the shit out of that horse and let everybody know what's what.
I'd release it as a sex tape called Brokeback Mountain 2.
This. A similar question surfaced around my high school; someone asked me and the other jokers/wastemen what we would do if we were in jail and a burly man came up to us and said we either had to give, or take.
Everyone said give. One said he'd turn him backways and give him the @#$% of his life.
-
I'd not work, and sell drugs for income. If I couldn't do that, though, I'd probably work. Income is important.
If you broke up with your SO and they started dating your sibling, would you rather it be an older or younger sibling?
By default, the younger sibling. (I'm the youngest).
Would you rather only be able to drink your favourite drink or never the drink the same drink? (And by never, I really mean, never)
-
The latter portion of your question confuses me.
-
Explanation: By never drink the same drink, I mean that everytime you wanted to drink something it would always be different. You can never drink the same drink twice.
So the choice is: A) Always drink the same beverage. B) The beverage you're drinking will always be different. Which means that at one time, you won't be able to drink the things you like.
-
I would much rather drink the same beverage over and over. Most likely, it would be milk.
-
Would you rather have an unshavable, but magnificent mustache, or be forever hairless?
-
Hairless if you talk only about facial and body hair.
(this only works if you are straight) Would you rather have sexual relationship with a man who used to be a woman or a woman who used to be a man.
-
Probably a woman who used to be a man? I'm not really clear on how the anatomy works in all situations there.
Kinda similar. Would you rather learn that your Significant Other had left you for a heterosexual partner or a homosexual one? (Or, if you're already homosexual... yeah you get the idea.)
-
It wouldn't make much difference to me. But I guess my ego would take less of beating if my SO left me for a homosexual partner. Just a "oh, that's what you prefer? I understand, guys are awesome. Enjoy!"
Would you rather have sex in a library or on top of a muon detector?
-
Just a "oh, that's what you prefer? I understand, guys are awesome. Enjoy!"
That way you'd also know what they have that you don't.
-
Library, as that seems to be where everyone is predicting for me anyway.
Would you rather live on your knees or die on your feet?
-
Die on my feet.
Would you rather have sex with a stranger and get an uncurable STD or get them pregnant (or get pregnant)? If you get them pregnant (or get pregnant), you have to take care of the baby and stay with the stranger until the child is grown and able to buy a house of his/her own.
