Would you rather - -

[S~V~S]

Terrier, tenacity ftw.

90 degrees or 80 degrees?

[Marmot]

80 degrees. I would have said 90 if I still lived in Cincinnati, but my preference has changed over the last few years.

Mets or Yankees?

[S~V~S]

METS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Silly Marmot.

Squirrels or Hamsters?

[Marmot]

Squirrels are my awesome cousins from the country. Hamsters are my awful cousins who live down the street and won't leave me alone. (Took you guys long enough to answer that one :P)

IPA or Stout?

[S~V~S]

IPA; much as I tried I never got a taste for stout. (who did you expect to answer a NY baseball question but me ha ha?? And I was afk)

Beer trip; Belgium or Germany?

[Epignosis]

Belgium.

Mild salsa or hot salsa?

[Marmot]

Hot salsa (my mouth is watering thinking about it).

Yoga or Kung Fu?

[Epignosis]

Kung Fu.

The shine of your japan or the sparkle of your china?

[S~V~S]

Japan. Their culture seems less about turning endangered species into aphrodisiacs & eating dogs than does Chinas.

If you could bring one of these back:

Mammoth or Tasmanian Tiger?

[Epignosis]

Mammoths.

Own a mule or a goat?

[S~V~S]

Oh a goat, I LOVE goats, I had goats for years.

Short trip, less the 500 miles. Car or plane?

[Epignosis]

Car. I've never been on an airplane, and I think I would hate airports.

Be tickled until you count to a thousand or visit North Korea for three days?

[S~V~S]

Oooo that's hard. I hate being tickled, it's a total loss of control. But Kim Jong Un just executed someone for slouching (during the Korean National Anthem? No just a Cabinet meeting) so as a sloucher, I will have to pick the tickling.

Jello or Pudding?

[Epignosis]

Pudding.

Learn Korean or C++?

[Marmot]

Toughie, but I'll go C++ since it would be more useful to me.

[S~V~S]

Speaking in Tongues

Wish You Were Here or Animals?

[Marmot]

Wish You Were Her

Low or Aladdin Sane?

[S~V~S]

Alladin Sane

Dalai Lama or the Pope?

[Epignosis]

The latest pope man seems to have led a pretty interesting life.

Clean baseboards or wash windows?

[S~V~S]

Windows. I washed my windows last month, I am not even sure when I washed my baseboards, unless you count sweeping them when I sweep the floor.

Time travel; if you could travel to an unknown point in either the past or the future, would you choose past or future?

[Epignosis]

The future.

If I go back to the past to any significant degree, then I will be carrying strains of bacteria and the like that the inhabitants of the past will be unable to fight off and their immune systems will not be able to protect them. I would cause a series of plagues that would set off a chronological calamity.

The bitches in the future should be able to handle whatever I've got.

Would you rather have an extra hour everyday in which you could retreat and do whatever you felt like during that stoppage of time for everybody else, or would you rather have a stretch of fifteen days every year?

[S~V~S]

Fifteen days, stuff could get done in 15 days.

The spice police are coming! Would you rather they take the salt or the pepper?

[Ricochet]

Damn tricky one. Pepper, I think. Ultimately, there need to be salt for me to add a frakton of it on everything.

Djokovic or Wawrinka?

[Epignosis]

Gesundheit.

Be allergic to peanuts or cats?

[Marmot]

Peanuts. They're are many other good things to eat out there, and I could easily live without peanuts.

Fried polenta or grits?

[Epignosis]

I love fried polenta but grits have the edge.

Speaking of grits, Al Green or Marvin Gaye?

[G-Man]

Marvin Gaye

Sit behind home plate at a ball game or in the outfield stands?

[Epignosis]

Home plate I guess. Whichever has the more comfortable seats for a nap.

Drive a Ford or a Chevy?

[Marmot]

Ford has a respectable and innovative business model, so I go with them. I don't know if their cars are very reliable these days but what cars are? :P

Road biking or mountain biking?

[juliets]

Road biking - I don't live near any mountains.

Steak, lobster or tofu?

[Epignosis]

Steak. Had a giant T-bone last night.

Have a little more money or get a little more sleep?

[S~V~S]

A little more money. I would sleep better if I worried less.

Real books or e-books?

[Epignosis]

The real deal, every time.

Own the Playboy mansion or the Reba McEntire horse farm?

[S~V~S]

Horse farm; I love horses! Why would I want to live in a house full of people who make me feel fat,old & inadequate, lol?

Feeling good about yourself in a boring life, or feeling bad about yourself in a fantasy life?

[G-Man]

Feeling good about yourself in a boring life. I'm already doing that one!

Attend the Super Bowl for free or watch it on TV?

[Epignosis]

Watch it on TV. The beer is already paid for, there's no line to the bathroom, no crowds, and I cook amazing things.

Meet your favorite baseball player or your favorite football player?

[S~V~S]

Tom Seaver pwns any football guy ever. So baseball.

V for Vendetta: roll your eyes or true believer?

[a2thezebra]

Roll my eyes. I think Zizek nailed it by simply asking what happens the following day.

Fight Club - postmodernist garbage or visceral masterpiece? No moderate third option allowed, this is would you rather.

EDIT: I should add that I am a fan of V for Vendetta as a film, just not as a movement or inspiration for a movement.

[Vompatti]

Masterpiece if it's meant to be ironic, garbage if it's not.

Which pretentious celebrity philosopher do you prefer, Zizek or Sartre?

[Epignosis]

Hell is other people.

Butter Pecan or Vanilla?

[nutella]

Butter pecan.


Dracula's Blood Pudding or Essence of Ghost?

[Epignosis]

Essence of Ghost sounds tastier.

Golden State or Toronto Raptors for the NBA preseason opener?

[S~V~S]

Raptors sound like more fun, in a gory kinda way.

Dripping with sarcasm or dripping with butter?

[Epignosis]

Butter. Sarcasm is bitter.

Own a luxury yacht or RV?

[S~V~S]

RV. I love driving, and while I know how to boat and operate a basic cabin cruiser, I think a yacht would be too much for one me to handle, and for me getting there is half the fun.

Would you rather go to a small venue and have your favorite band play just for you, or would you rather be in the same small venue and you play for them?

[Epignosis]

RV. I love driving, and while I know how to boat and operate a basic cabin cruiser, I think a yacht would be too much for one me to handle, and for me getting there is half the fun.

Would you rather go to a small venue and have your favorite band play just for you, or would you rather be in the same small venue and you play for them?

I'd rather be entertained. If I were on stage in front of them, I would probably be a wreck.

Be on The Voice or Dancing with the Stars?

[S~V~S]

I would be horrid on either, but I guess Dancing with the Stars; the hosts seem a tad less vicious, lol. Plus those pro dancers can make almost anyone look less atrocious.

Which is worse; Your workplace is always too hot, or your workplace is always too cold?

[Epignosis]

Too hot. I hate heat, and you can always wear a sweater.

Ginger or crushed red pepper?

[S~V~S]

Red Pepper; I never really got a taste for Ginger, but I DO love pepper.

Onion or Garlic?

[Epignosis]

Onions- favorite vegetable.
