Would You Rather: Questions 181-190


It's been a while since I've done one of these - three years in fact. Yes, three years! Jumping back into the wacky world of these questions, and stimulating some ponders along the way...

181. Would you rather the aliens that make first contact be robotic or organic? 

Well, this is a weird one. I'll go organic as it feels there would be more of an opportunity to connect as living beings. Robots just sound evil at the core - showing no compassion or empathy one what would likely be an awkward initial encounter. 

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

Easily lose the ability to speak. I'm not sure I even want to talk to people all that much anymore - I'm kidding, sort of. Losing the ability to read gives up too much of yourself, and the ability to function independently. 

183. Would you rather have a golden voice or a silver tongue?

Golden voice. Give me the ability to sing, perform, and be a rock star. A silver tongue is nice, and likely practical, but I'm dreaming big. 

184. Would you rather be covered in fur or covered in scales?

Ahhhh, covered in fur? Yeah, fur. Scales are for reptiles, and while it's cool, those are definitely not my thing. 

185. Would you rather be in jail for a year or lose a year off your life?

Take a year off my life. Just take it...

186. Would you rather always be 10 minutes late or always be 20 minutes early?

20 minutes early. Because I typically find myself running right on time, or likely, ten minutes late. 

Being on time in a big way is fine. No big deal. 

187. Would you rather have one real get-out-of-jail-free card or a key that opens any door?

Now this is going to sound really bad, but the get-out-of-jail-free card sounds useful. I'm not sure I would care to open doors...or that it sounds all that useful. 

188. Would you rather know the history of every object you touch or be able to talk to animals?

Wikipedia exists. I rather go down a rabbit hole of research with my extra twenty minutes of showing up early. 

Talking to animals? That'll be cool. 

189. Would you rather have all traffic lights you approach be green or never have to stand in line again?

Give me green lights all the way. Anyone who understands driving in the NYC Metro area would appreciate that. I'm cool with standing in line. 

But green lights all the way - that's just a miracle. 

190. Would you rather spend the rest of your life with a sailboat as your home or an RV as your home?

Life on a sailboat won't be my thing. At sea, forever? Nope. 

Life on the road in a badass RV - that's just not only an easy decision on this question, but sounds like a really cool life to live.

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...

Thoughts on TNA on AMC Debut: "Yup, TNA is back. It is so back."

TNA is back.  And I know that because it is heavily under scrutiny by the internet. But that criticism comes with being back on a major platform like the AMC Network, and of course, taking the next step after a super successful 2025.  So, what did I think?  The show was...ummmm okay, at best. Some of the challenges the company faced heading into this weekend were well documented among the rumor mill, which didn't bode well for the company. In balancing reported visa issues with talent, pivoting after losing core talent to free agency, and attempting to build and manage talent workload with a premium live event on Saturday, TNA found themselves in the usual TNA stuff. The most peculiar - and strangest - of situations to be in going into a big network premiere. This company, man! All in all, again, the show was okay. It had its flaws. It had some cool moments. It didn't live up to the hype (or the expectations we each had for such a premiere). But it's one show. TNA has put...

Dome Pondering Movie Review: In a Relationship (2018)

What is it about?  Following the progression of two couples over the course of a summer.  Who is in it? Emma Roberts - Hallie Michael Ambrano - Owen Dree Hemingway - Willa Patrick Gibson - Matt Favorite Scene:  [Spoiler Alert] Matt and Villa sit on the stairs, and he admits to not wanting to introduce Willa to his parents.  Favorite Quote:  I don't... I don't think you ever find someone... you don't resent. And that's part of it. It's just... find the person you *want* to resent, you know. Review:  This was a weird film. The opener had much promise, but as the film continued, it felt like it was just getting longer.  My biggest gripe with the film is that I liked each of the characters less as I got to know them. I understand that the film attempted to highlight the modern relationship for a specific generation, and in certain ways, it succeeded in doing so. However, the characters never grew or became better people from their relationships...they just...
