1. you have to choose your life as it is right now. nothing will get any better, nothing will get any worse. you will maintain the current level of quality in your life for the remainder of your life. or you can choose to become president of the united states of america, but you will be assassinated one year before your term ends. which do you choose? I would choose my life as it is right now, duh. Why would I want all the pressure of being a president to be the highlight of my few last years of life?
2. would you rather be the greatest genius on earth, but never appreciated in your own lifetime or considered a genius within your own lifetime, but thought of as a mediocre hack after you died? I would choose option 1. If I indeed was the greatest genius on earth, I bet I could benefit from it one way or the other without risking my legacy.
3. would you rather have a sexual partner who was great in bed, but was so ugly that they were somewhat of a social embarrasment, or would you rather have a lovely sexual partner who happened to be completely terrible in bed, but made people terribly envious of you? I would choose option 2. My partner would be lovely and the other stuff can be learned.
4. would you rather be the lead singer of an extremely popular but mediocre rock band, or would you rather be the greatest poet who ever lived with a small but dedicated fanbase? I would choose option 2. I imagine being that much popular must be too intrusive and I wouldn't like that. Besides, being the greatest poet and have a few people know it is good enough.
5. you are presented with two doors, but three options. option number one is to open the first door, option number two is to open the second door, option number three is to walk away. behind one door, there is fame, fortune, and fulfillment of all your dreams, and behind the other door is an axe wielding maniac who will chop you to pieces the second you open the door. you dont know which of these things is behind which door. do you choose to open one of these doors or do you choose to walk away? I would choose option 3. Having a chance of fulfilling all my dreams sounds great, but having a chance of dying right there is worse, IMO. At least, if I walk away I still have the opportunity of fulfilling my dreams.
6. if by killing yourself, all your enemies will be destroyed as well, would you kill yourself? No... Like... I don't have any enemies, but even if I did, I would still love myself more than I'd hate them... duh.
7. if you had to take a long road trip with either a vietnam vet with a bad temper who had a gun on his person at all times, or a sociopath who quietly judged everything you did, what would you choose and why? Well, it depends what kind of sociopath the sociopath is... But I would go with the sociopath. The overwhelming majority of sociopaths aren't criminals, and it actually might be fun if I go all sarcastic on him/her. A vet with a bad temper and a gun on him sounds like too much trauma and instability.
8. if you could obtain immortality by stomping a little girl's pet kitten to death before her crying eyes every christmas eve, would you do it?
A hard one, finally. But yes, I would. Just crush the kitten's head first so s/he won't suffer. I could also get very drunk to do it so I don't remember it the next day. The little girl is probably irresponsible and would get the kitten to die anyways. If you put me to test , though, I wouldn't, lol. I'd rather live my decent amount of years with a clean conscience and no regrets such as killing kittens and traumatizing little girls. 9. if you loved someone with all of your heart and they hated everything about you, would you take ten years off of their life if it meant that they would love you in return? No. How pathetic would that be? Have some selfesteem...
10. if you died and went to hell, and found that it is every bit as horrible as christians make it out to be, eternal fire, eternal suffering, eternal pain; but the devil offered you a deal - he said that for every soul on earth that you could tempt towards damnation, you will experience a one year reprieve from the agony of eternal hellfire, would you take his deal? I bet I would. I mean, if I'm eternally in hell, I must get corrupted to the core at some point that I won't even care anymore.
