Would you Rather?
Toilet bowl. They can't possibly be as dirty as we think, and I LOVE p.b.Dinner out-Formal or fast food?
Kandice, that's hilarious! formal, I like to dress up and I hate fast food
have a new car or a new boat?
Streak naked. It would be quick, and I could wear a bag on my head!Run into someone you dumped, or someone that dumped you!
if I was looking fabulous I'd say someone who dumped me, if I'd just run out and hadn't showered or anything, some I'd dumped, they'd feel goodclean a public toilet or spend a week with your inlaws without your spouse (significant other, etc.)?
so totally cleaning that toilet!
Swallow a goldfish alive, or have red ants crawl on you (and bite you) for 10 minutes.
Swallow a goldfish alive, or have red ants crawl on you (and bite you) for 10 minutes.
How big is the goldfish?! I'd swallow a goldfish... I am not sure sure how I feel about biting ants craweling all over me.. Would you rather.. run from a hippo or an elephant?
I'd have such a hard time, if I could, swallowing a live animal I guess I'd have to take those lousy darn red ants! Crap.join a boy scout troop at whatever age you are now and whatever your sex, or join an evangelical prayer group?
I would never be able to get the goldfish down (I am a gagger!) So I guess the Ants!Be Beautiful and dumb or ugly and smart?
I AM happy with no money, lol!Would you rather die or be a quadrapalegic (I probably butchered the spelling on that, and for that, I apologize)? This topic recently came up after my husband's boss broke his back.
oops Sorry I must have been on the wrong page I will answer Val and use Mel's ?I will join a boy/girl scout!
Would you rather die or be a quadrapalegic ?
If the medical people wanted to go through heroic measures in order to keep me alive to be a quad, then I have instructed that they are to LET ME GO!! I'm not afraid of dying and this life is not the one that is precious to me. watch 8 hours of Foxx News or 8 hours of HGTV?
Erg, neither, but I suppose HGTV.Would you rather be incredibly beautiful, rich and famous, but a complete idiot, or horrifically ugly, poor and unknown and a genius?
The former are a dime a dozen and their impact often lasts as long as a fart in a windstorm and they are so full of themselves; the latter have more of an impact on the world for things that REALLY matter and they aren't so self-involved. So, that said, I'd pick the latter any day!! Would you rather run a marathon or swim a mile?
Whichever I could recover from fastest!btw I would really rather be incredibly beautiful, rich and famous, if only for a minute!
Would you rather have a Chinese or Indian meal?
I love both but I could eat Chinese food every day! Yum, yum!Would you rather lose your sight or your hearing?
I would have to say Hearing. I dont want to live in darkness.... no way!
To answer Squiggles, i would pick the rich and famous and beautiful! I could work hard at being smart.... but if i was horribly ugly, well, there would be no hope of changing that!
Would you rather be stuck out in a snowstorm overnight, or stranded out at sea?

Would you rather be stuck out in a snowstorm overnight, or stranded out at sea?
Stuck in a snowstorm. I have sailed oceans in a small yacht and I cannot think of anything more truly frightening than being stranded at sea. The chances are that no one would ever find you.Would you rather train to run a marathon or study calculus for a year?
mute, I talk too much anyway, and always get my foot in my mouth!Would you rather be reincarnated as an animal or a human?
Animal!!!!!! I am so ashamed of being human.Do you prefer having a leading position at work or having a colleague who does the leading? I mean do you prefer to tell and arange what others do at work or being told what you have to do? (I prefer not to have a leading position at work)
Personally I prefer NOT to have the stress of being in charge so I will have to go for having a colleauge do the leading.Would you rather sit through a straight play or a musical?
I love theatre and wouldn't mind either but if it was some big show like Oklahoma that I don't like, I'd choose not the musical and hope it was a comedy.have 5 children or no children?
hmm...none, I think.Would you rather get your feet removed from frostbite in the snow or burnt off in a fire? (what a horrible question, I have no idea where that came from)
Frostbite- I think it would be less painful since the nerves would be frozen.Would you rather die quickly when young, or die slowly when old?
Oh my gosh!!!! Frostbite. My dad's a firefighter, and I know burns are so terribly painful!Would you rather lose just the thumb of your dominant hand, or your entire other hand?
(This is getting gross!)
"Would you rather die quickly when young, or die slowly when old?"Quickly when young. (if quickly means a mere few hours tops (as in an accident) and not spending a few months trying to battle cancer.)
"Would you rather lose just the thumb of your dominant hand, or your entire other hand?"
My thumb, though I'm sure I would only realise how much I use it once I wouldn't have it anymore..
Would you rather have coffee or tea?
Debbie, debbie, debbie...
I would sooo rather be stranded with BOOKS!
Would you rather be 3 foot tall, or 8 foot tall?
I would sooo rather be stranded with BOOKS!
Would you rather be 3 foot tall, or 8 foot tall?
3...at least I could shop in the kids section. (Have a 6'-9" nephew...and it's not easy for him to find things)...and ouch! bumping the headWould you rather...watch today's inauguration coverage in US with sound or without (ok...except for Mr. Obama's speech)
Couldn't I just have an extra 6 inches? I guess 8ft tall, at least I could reach the top shelves.Would you rather be stranded on an island with a group of friends, or your family?
well considering I was sort of stranded on an island this week I would say family.Would you rather be hot or cold?

Cold, for sure! You can always put on more layers, but naked is as far as you can go!!!
Would you rather eat cold cereal or oatmeal?
Debbie, I'd rather watch it with the sound offDebbie, 3 days on a boat sounds fun, I hope it's not a teeny tiny boat in stormy weather
would you rather be president or rock star?
Rock star...now way I want that other job! Of course it's starting to sound like the new pres is being treated like a rock star...so he's getting both?Eat 30 olives one after another or 30 hershey's kisses?
drown, i think it may hurt less.would you rather be safe and secure with no friends or scared/fearful with friends?
scared and fearful with friends....but this is hard to imagine because I think a lot of feeling safe is knowing that you do have people around you to count on. For me, friendship is always worth the risk.would you rather own a house on the beach or a cabin in the mountains?
house on the beach I don't like lying in the sun but I love walking on the beach, I don't care if it's sandy or rocky or windy I just like it and besides I live close enough to the mountains to go whenever I want.would you rather have gone to an inaugural ball or stay in and go to sleep early
gone to the inaugural ball!!!would you rather sleep in and stay up late or get up early and go to bed early?
Sleep in and stay up lateWould you rather read a fiction book or a non fiction book (where you enjoy the subjects of both)?
Would you rather play tennis or badminton
happy, although it is fleetingfiction book over nonfiction
would you rather have a job where you help others or that is very creative?
neither because I'd have no privacy but if I had to choose, I'd rather be famousbe an excellent painter or an excellent singer
