Would you rather forget everything that happened more than 24 hours ago but otherwise live your dream life, or have a normal memory but experience suffering often in your life? You’d retain all the memories you have up to this point, either way, but if you chose to have a short memory, you’d forget anything that happened from hereon.

Shit, that’s a hard one, since your memories define you so much. What kind of suffering are we talking about?

If it’s painless, I’ll go right now. Regardless of the other option.

I have no family. Put my boy in the ground yesterday.
So, Fingers crossed.

Are you sure you’re doing alright, man?

Related: Would you rather die right now, or live forever, but completely isolated from anyone, living off the land?

I wouldn’t know what to do if I had to live off the land, so either choice has the same result. Better to get it done sooner and I assume painlessly.

The Room, at least it’s hilariously bad.

The way I see it, everything that’s in the Expanded Universe and happens before the prequels is true until proven untrue, since I doubt they’re ever going to explore that time period again in the new canon.

Untrue, swords exist separately from lightsabers.

YHWH, you seem really invested in other peoples’ opinions of Chinese cartoons, are you alright?

I think I would pick playing every instrument, too. I’m probably not gonna go to any non-English speaking countries anyway, and playing instruments is impressive if you can even play one.

Would you rather be famous or know someone who would become famous?

I’d rather know someone who would be famous. Being famous sucks, you’re constantly being harassed by paparazzi, and every detail of your life is now a public matter to be scrutinized by everyone.

Post scenarios and discuss your answers.

I’ll start off with;

Would you rather be fluent in every language or be able to play every instrument?

Also, no werewolf would-you-rathers.

The ‘Would You Rather’ thread. Post scenarios and discuss your answers.

Absolutely atrocious.

Finally bit the bullet and am trying out the original Fallout. I’ve only ever played the newer ones, so the gameplay took a lot of adjusting to. But I’m glad to say that I’m having fun with it, and I’ll probably pick up the 2nd if it goes sale on Steam any time soon.

I think it opened on July 15th. I’m hearing that it’s having relatively good box office projections, but given its budget and Sony’s (somewhat unrealistic to begin with) plans of this becoming a giant franchise, it isn’t quite what they had hoped.

Shit, did it?

Huh, I guess it did. That’s not too bad for opening day earnings, but the rate at which it makes money is only gonna get slower, so maybe it’s not so good. Only time will tell.

That doublepost is either top-tier satire or an amazing coincidence.

Simpsonwave is pretty cool

Hey, I know that song!

I’ve been huge into Outrun music (and some Vaporwave) for awhile now. It’s just so good.

Yeah, Outrun is my jam. I started listening to Vaporwave ‘ironically’, but it grew on me eventually. I’m not big into it, but there’s some of it I can definitely enjoy enjoy.

I hope you’re doing okay, man. Losing a pet can be really hard.

That’s mainly a difference of definition, then. Christian; in my mind, just means you believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ and worship him.

Copy-pasted from Wikipedia;

In 1933, prior to the annexation of Austria into Germany, the population of Germany was approximately 67% Protestant and 33% Catholic; Jews made up less than 1% of the population.[1] A census in May 1939, six years into the Nazi era[2] and incorporating the annexation of mostly Catholic Austria into Germany, indicates that 54% considered themselves Protestant, 40% Catholic, 3.5% self-identified as “gottgläubig” (lit. “believers in god”, often described as predominately creationist and deistic),[3] and 1.5% as non-religious.

So by your definition of Christian, it’s still the case that most Nazi soldiers were Christian. So I would say my original statement still applies, and there were Christians that didn’t believe “in loving everyone, even their enemies.”

Haven’t heard that quote before, but I’m skeptical of it’s legitimacy. I value things like this;

more than a single quote that he may or may not have said.

Here’s one of the many quotes that contradict the one you’ve posted; “We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity … in fact our movement is Christian.”

Look at this with an open mind, please.

Even if Hitler wasn’t a Christian, the overwhelming majority of people who committed his atrocities for him were. And if that’s the case, then I could have just as easily said;

Do you? The homogenous group of Christians known as we believes in loving everyone, even their enemies? Maybe you personally do, but these guys don’t;

On the topic of sabers, I’ve got a replica Anakin saber that I got from Comic-Con. It’s alright, but I really wish they figured out a way to emulate the glowing white core rather than being a solid color.

I will pay you a hefty sum of money to make that your profile picture.
