I have always thought blind. Both are going to be very hard. Dreadful.

Look up the book "I Shot Daddy" to see how far a person can be pushed until they snap- and reasons why.

Woman was sexually abused for years by her father (still didnt kill him for that) only shot him while he slept because she realised he turned on her younger sister. She spent about 8 years in jail iirc before the morons finally overturned it and set her free.

Stuff like this actually creeps me out, especially if it's real. I feel sick even thinking about it . Sounds interesting , but also like something I should avoid.

Kill or be killed.

Home intruder is in your room and you're in bed.

You somehow struggle and knock them unconscious.

You tie him up and about to call the cops.

He wakes up and rants that when he gets out of custody/jail whatever he'll hunt you down and kill you.

Do you continue to call the cops amd live your life in fear or finish him off nobody ever knowing he was there & you get away with it.

Call the cops for sure

Deaf or blind?

Would rather be deaf. Being blind would affect my ability to be independent far more than being deaf. Besides, hearing aids /cochlear implants are far from perfect, but they're better than a bionic eye which is (for the most part) not a realistic prospect.

I just found a good one....

Would you rather say every single thing that entererd your brain or never say anything again.

Think about it, this is a TOUGH one.

Definitely the former. I tend to be overly honest/blunt anyway, and eventually, I'd learn to control my thoughts. Never being able to say anything again would be tough.

I pretty much say everything that enters my brain on here (not irl tho) so would have to go with that

Think about it a bit more. Surely you have thoughts that cannot be shared with others.

I think i would choose to say nothing and write a manifesto

.

I read alot of books like that (and other stuff on true crime)- sometimes all in one go. I honestly dont think its a good thing and i need a long break from them. A few books on child abuse i threw in the bin, just didnt want them near me anymore.

Write a manifesto anyway. I will read it.

I have thought about this before, and my answer is still the same. Never being able to say anything again for the rest of my life would be worse than saying every thought that came to my head .

As above- hearing aids. Sure, they only amplify sound (so it would sound more like a radio with muffled noise) but at least I'd be able to hear *something*
But even failing that - I'd rather keep my ability to drive (and the independence that goes with it) and sacrifice music, as much as I love music .

I would be murdered if i verbalised every thought. Earlier this year i went through a phase of having extremely bitchy thoughts. Like mentally calling innocent people "fat arse" etc. I pretty much did a 10 day silent meditation to stop having such bitchy thoughts.

I was annoying myself with them.

Bahahahah im the opposite- i ignore/have no thoughts on fat people- unless theyre in my personal space like on a plane then gtfo.

When i see them in the gym, i honestly thing "good on them for having the courage to come in here when 98% of gymgoers look pretty good"



Pls. Write it, seriously. You cannot offend me.

If you explained your condition, you wouldn't be murdered, and eventually, you'd find a way to control your thoughts or rather compartmentalise them.
I'm more worried about my own thoughts about myself, than any thoughts I might have about others, but even then- yeah, I have my secrets, but I'd rather share them with the world (the world is unlikely to care anyway) than never be able to speak ever again.
Not being able to speak ever again, on the other hand- it's not a fate that's worse than death, but it's still an awful prospect.

Fat was just an example. My mind was on offensive auto pilot. I would not want to subject society to this. I dont normally puck on fat people.

Think about how awful it is to have laryngitis or whatever and lose your voice for a week! Let alone forever.. its ****ing annoying.

Would you rather spend 4 years in jail or marry your ex?

I'd go with ex, cause he is a lovely guy. I'd just divorce him after a year

Marry my ex , but for me , that question is far too easy

 

[CheapCharlie]

Would you murder someone?

If a. you got away with it and b. you got paid for it and c. they were an arseh*le.

Would u murder someone for 1 million $?

 

[Shell]

Depends who.


/Nah seriously probably not, no.

If THEY were going to kill me, then yes.

You have to live with him for four years.
