Would You Rather Questions: 221-230


221. Would you rather forget your partner's birthday or your anniversary every year? 

I would rather forget the birthday. The anniversary is number one, you can't forget that. Either way, you're pretty much in trouble. 

222. Would you rather lose the ability to read or lose the ability to speak?

The older I get, the more I realize that people talk too much. Losing the ability to read is a power lost. I choose to continue to read and will say less. I can write what I want to say...

223. Would you rather have seven fingers on each hand or seven toes on each foot?

Seven fingers can be very beneficial. Who knows what other kinds of pitches can be created with additional fingers? At the same time, seven fingers on both hands...yeahhhhhh, that's a red flag for insecurity. I can hide (try to at least) my seven toes. Also, I'm not sure what extra ability that would give me. 

So ummm, yeah. Seven toes.

224. Would you rather work the job you have now for a year at double your current rate of pay or have one year off with what you are making now?

Double my pay for the year. I'm not sure what the year off would present me with at this stage in my life. My kids are still in school, and my wife will be at work... A year off and then going back to work would be so difficult. 

225. Would you rather be always stuck in traffic but find a perfect parking spot, or never hit traffic but always take forever to park?

I am a born and raised New Yorker. I still live in the NYC metro area. There is nothing like getting to your destination and instantly finding valid (and free) parking. Traffic is par for the course around these parts...

226. Would you rather have super-sensitive taste buds or super-sensitive hearing?

Tastebuds. I'm not sure what super-sensitive or detailed hearing would provide me. 

227 Would you rather eat only pizza for a year or not eat any pizza for five years?

A year off from pizza is fine. I love pizza, but every day?! Oooff.

228 Would you rather be able to speak any language or be able to communicate with animals?

No interest in communicating with animals. Sorry, animal lovers. The multiple languages would be awesome. 

229. Would you rather run at 100 mph or fly at 20 mph?

As a very slow person, running fast at any speed is a dream. However, the ability to fly - FLY! - like a super hero would be the ultimate. I'm definitely flying. 

230. Would you rather have Adele’s voice or Normani’s dance moves?

Hello from the other siiiiiiiideeeeeee!!!!

Would You Rather: Questions 121-130

This edition of "Would You Rather" is credited to the NBA Would You Rather NBA Account on Instagram ( See Here ). Adding to the fun, this edition (and possibly future ones) are all NBA basketball questions.  121. Who would you rather have on your favorite NBA team - Giannis Antetokounpo or James Harden?  Seeing how I'm a lifelong suffering Knicks fan, the thought of any of these guys in blue and orange is hard to believe. With that said, I'm taking the Greek Freak for this reason - I enjoy watching him play a bit more. Nothing against Harden who is amazing as well, but at times, the ball sticks and that isn't always fun. Plus, I feel like we haven't yet seen a finished Giannis. 122. Would you rather have Giannis Antetokounpo with no driving ability or James Harden with no Three-Point shooting ability?  This is definitely a weird and unique one, but I'll take Harden. Giannis without his strength doesn't offer much. However, if Harden's d...

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 9/13/26

The Sunday Sundown Rundown (formerly in the format of "3 Up and 3 Down") is where I share thoughts on three topics that piqued my interest, along with my favorite photo from the week. 25th Anniversary of 9/11 It is sort of hard to imagine that it has been twenty-five years since that awful day. It's been fifteen years since I've shared my experience as a High Schooler in Brooklyn, NY , and everything that came with that day (and the many to follow afterwards).  The world changed, and to this day, it still feels hard to grasp what happened (and what transpired with the health of so many afterwards). The lives lost, and the damage done. My son learned about 9/11, and his questions around it ignite some of that struggle with thought around it.  Daddy, how did they get the planes?  Did the building just, like, fall over?  On this 25th anniversary, it is even more concerning to see how the day is also politicized and sometimes weaponized in culture wars. I remember Americ...

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 9/6/26

The Sunday Sundown Rundown (formerly in the format of "3 Up and 3 Down") is where I share thoughts on three topics that piqued my interest, along with my favorite photo from the week. Chandika Shrestha I found so much of this story this week to be fascinating. Chandika Shrestha, a 64-year-old woman, was found alive - ALIVE! - after ten days below a collapsed house among the Nepal flood wreckage. The human spirit element and the sheer will to survive, combined with what can only be divine intervention. So much there to the spirit of life and an unexplainable reasoning.  Western Michigan vs. Michigan Ending Look, I'm as casual as they come when it comes to the college football space, culture, and fandom.  Nonetheless, somehow, I found myself (with my wife - who has about 3,485 things she would rather do before watching football) watching the final five minutes of this game on Saturday night. Little did we realize what we would witness.  I have no dog in the fight. But I fe...
