Would You Rather: Questions 191 - 200


191. Would you rather have the ability to see minutes into the future or years into the future?

This is interesting...I think minutes in the future would be too much at some point. However, years in the future can be really daunting. Especially so for the psyche. I'll go with minutes into the future, especially in moments of angst or danger. Can there be a limit per year? Maybe, like replay challenges in sports? 

I'd like to use my challenge, please - can I see what will happen in the next few minutes?

192. Would you rather have telekinesis (the ability to move things with your mind) or telepathy (the ability to read minds)?

I want no part of reading other people's minds. Nah uh! Nope! While I often ponder what exactly happens in the minds of others, it's likely one of those thoughts that needs to be left to the imagination. 

Moving things with my mind can be pretty cool. The remote control immediately comes to mind. 

193. Would you rather be forced to sing along or dance to every single song you hear?

Sing. I sort of do this already - I'm a lyrics guy. 

Dancing is reserved only for those songs that evoke an individual's emotions. Just my opinion. 

194. Would you rather find true love today or win the lottery next year?

What if I already have true love? Can I win the lottery next year - and have both?!

195. Would you rather be in jail for five years or be in a coma for a decade?

Hmmm, not sure I want to do jail. Give me the coma. I'll jump ahead ten years and figure it out. 

196. Would you rather be chronically under-dressed or overdressed?

Over-dressed. You can play it off as fashionable. Or, I'm just a thorough person. Underdressed can be sen as disrespectful and leads to too many stigmatizing slippery slopes. 

197. Would you rather have everyone you know be able to read your thoughts or for everyone you know to have access to your Internet history?

I can argue that it likely will be one of the same, especially these days. The number of random things I Google or search. What was that actor's name from that movie...?

My thoughts are mine. You don't need to get in there (as I mentioned above with me with others). Have free rein to judge me through my browser. 

198. Would you rather lose your sight or your memories?

This is a low-key good one. 

Oddly, I think I would choose memories. What are we without our lived experiences?!

199. Would you rather have universal respect or unlimited power?

Respect is what I want to say. But as a human being, unlimited power is VERY tempting. 

So, I give in - give me the POWEERRRRRRRRRR!!!!

200. Would you rather give up air conditioning & heating for the rest of your life or give up the Internet for the rest of your life?

Internet. At one point in my life, this was actually a reality. Weird, but true.

Dome Pondering Move Review: Say You Will (2017)

What is it about? A recent high school graduate cares for his mother while attempting to navigate his first relationship following his father's suicide.  Who is in it? Travis Tope - Sam Nimitz Katherine Hughes - Ellie Vaughn Favorite Scene: [spoiler alert] Sam plays his song for his mom. Favorite Quote: Ellie: "I wish we could have met down the road, maybe when we were like 27." Sam: "I think we needed each other now." Review:  Say You Will was an absolutely pleasant surprise of a watch from the Amazon Prime offerings.  I wasn't exactly sure what to expect with this one, but after the credits rolled, it was a movie that provided authentic characters and a great lesson on life. We don't always have to have everything figured out, and it's okay if you don't.  What makes Say You Will so beautiful is that all of the characters are carrying some inner struggle that connects them in the moment and time that helps them through whatever it is. The unlike...

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 2/11/19

3 Up 1. Eva Ramon Gallegos Cure HPV - Could Cervical Cancer be a thing of the past? It very much looks like it as after twenty years of work, Gallegos has found a cure that completely eliminates the cancer. This is remarkable work, and it's pretty awesome to see the Mexican Medical community come together proudly in this achievement. 2. "This is America" Grammy - Finally!! Childish Gambino got some national love for the work he did on this great song, and even more so, on the overall art/video that was "This is America". Of course, he wasn't there to pick it up as the Grammys and their long standing issue with the hip-hop community continues... 3. Women at SOTU - Women continue to be bad ass in the current age. Their solidarity within the Capitol for the President's SOTU was a great sight to see. 3 Down 1. Venezuela Crisis - The country of Venezuela is in absolute shambles right now as they tussle over leadership, and really, a move toward d...

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 4/3/22

3 Up 1. Bill Limiting Cost of Insulin - Kudos to the House of Reps who passed a bill to cap the price of insulin under private health insurance and Medicare. I just don't think a drug that is relatively cheap everywhere else in the world should be at insane levels here so Big Pharma can make a bigger profit. Just my opinion... 2. Jon Batiste - I didn't see the Grammys (It's Wrestlemania Weekend, sorry!), but my guy Batiste cleaned up with some hardware tonight, including album of the year. Awesome stuff and well deserved.  3. Wrestlemania Weekend - Ah yes, it was a great show. And for any older millennial or Gen X individual, there was a lot of nostalgia to enjoy. Check out my review of both nights.  3a. The Undertaker's HOF Speech - Much love to Mark Calloway, the man behind The Undertaker persona. Over 30 years of entertaining us all, he's got his rightful place in the Hall of Fame. Also, a tremendous speech on Friday night during the induction.  3 Down 1. Sacram...
