oh god. Well, I like chocolate, so lets hope those crickets taste good in it!

Would you rather scratch your nails down a chalkboard for an hour or lick peanut butter off a public toilet bowl for 5 minutes?


message 602: by Kandice (new)

Kandice Toilet bowl. They can't possibly be as dirty as we think, and I LOVE p.b.

Dinner out-Formal or fast food?


message 603: by Val (new)

Val (valz) | 367 comments Kandice, that's hilarious!

Cook or clean?


message 605: by Kandice (new)

Kandice 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!


message 606: by Val (new)

Val (valz) | 367 comments 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 good

clean a public toilet or spend a week with your inlaws without your spouse (significant other, etc.)?


message 607: by Lori, Super Mod (new)

Lori (tnbbc) | 10631 comments Mod
so totally cleaning that toilet!

Swallow a goldfish alive, or have red ants crawl on you (and bite you) for 10 minutes.


message 608: by Monica (new)

Monica (monnieh722) 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?


message 609: by Val (new)

Val (valz) | 367 comments 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?


message 610: by Donna (new)

Donna (dfiggz) | 1626 comments 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?


message 611: by Melissa (new)

Melissa (melitious) 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.


message 612: by Donna (new)

Donna (dfiggz) | 1626 comments 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 ?



message 613: by Debby (last edited Jan 16, 2009 08:31PM) (new)

Debby | 3804 comments 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?


message 614: by Squiggles{Kelly} (new)

Squiggles{Kelly} (squiggles) | 61 comments 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?


message 615: by Debby (new)

Debby | 3804 comments 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?


message 616: by Petra X (new)

Petra X (petra-x) 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?


message 617: by Leshawn (new)

Leshawn | 73 comments I love both but I could eat Chinese food every day! Yum, yum!
Would you rather lose your sight or your hearing?


message 618: by Lori, Super Mod (new)

Lori (tnbbc) | 10631 comments Mod
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?


message 619: by Petra X (new)

Petra X (petra-x) 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?




message 620: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments would prefer to not be able to look in the mirror

rebecca j (technophobe) | 6029 comments 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?


message 622: by Jeane (new)

Jeane (icegini) | 4891 comments 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)


message 623: by Leanne (new)

Leanne (Leanne1986) | 500 comments 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?


message 624: by Val (new)

Val (valz) | 367 comments 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?


message 625: by Allison (new)

Allison (inconceivably) 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)


message 626: by rebecca j (new)

rebecca j (technophobe) | 6029 comments 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?


message 627: by Kandice (new)

Kandice 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!)


message 628: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments "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..

Drown or die in a fire?


message 640: by Lauren (new)

Lauren drown, i think it may hurt less.
would you rather be safe and secure with no friends or scared/fearful with friends?


message 641: by Gina (new)

Gina (g1n3) | 103 comments 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?


message 642: by Val (new)

Val (valz) | 367 comments 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.
