The Neverending Hypotheticals Thread

[Psilosopher?]

So, here's how it works. You answer the hypothetical asked by the Nexian above you. And you follow up with a hypothetical of your own. Let's see how far this rabbit hole goes...



99% of all humans are dead. You are one of the last few people on earth. You're in a library, alone. There's a blizzard outside, and you need to burn books for warmth. Which section do you burn first, and why?

 

[AcidShard]

I would burn all the books relating to the justice system, crime and punishment, laws, police training manuals, etc.
They will be a lot different in the new world we will start.


If you could have only one drug for the rest of your life, and have a never ending supply of the highest quality,
What would you choose?

 

[strtman]

Definitely free base DMT.

Just imagine you would be offered the opportunity to spent one full day (twenty-four hours contiguous) in another time period. The rule is that you can only observe and that you are invincible for the people around you. What is your choice? Old Egypt, Dinosaurs, or what ever?

 

[espurrr]

if i can visit anywhere in time it would be anywhere beyond 33 thousand years ago, probably where egypt is now, when the gods ruled

if you had the opportunity to leave your current life, regular relations and job, and your home, in the quest for enlightenment, where would you go and how would you approach your quest?

If you were being chased by the federal government and had to hide out in a foreign country where would you go and what would you do?

I think i would just do what bruce wayne did in 'the dark knight rises'. I would simply stage my own death in the form of a plane crash caused by a hydrogen bomb that terrorists made from a fusion reactor, and then live the good life in italy with some athletic lady burglar.

So, what if you'd find out that your father is satan and you are destined to become the antichrist.....would you kill yourself or rather try to make the best of it?

 

[Wolfnippletip]

I'd make the best of it, run for President on a "Yeah, so what if I'm the Antichrist?" platform...no, wait. It's been done.

Choose:

Spend the rest of your life in prison, but you'd be the Boss Dog, in no danger and have all kinds of creature comforts snuck in to you.

or

Spend the rest of your life alone on a Space Ship exploring the Solar System, and you'd never talk to another human being.

 

[roninsina]

While space exploration was a childhood dream mine, I must bow to John Donne's, "no man is an island". I imagine there would be a broad enough spectrum of liberties for a Boss Dogg, to minimize the unpleasantries of incarceration. I've spent some considerable time backpacking through deep wildernesses and found the solo time rather bittersweet. I would imagine, the "bitter" would be greatly amplified in the case of a life sentence of solitary space exploration.
