Five For Friday

[ER]

6.  Allow yourself to be shot with a .45 in a non-crippling, non-lethal location on your body, and under medical observation?
7.  Profoundly insult every adult you meet in a regular 24 hours, and you cannot explain the reason until two days AFTER the 24 hours are up?
8.  Give up access to any technology created after 1965 for six months, and that does include medicine/medical procedures?

See if any of those are worthy of being added, ER.

6. NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I've been to Texas, therefore I've seen what a .45 does to things!
7. Hmm, in Canada or among Mormons maybe, but if I did that in most places in daily life, surely there'd be a serial batterer among the mix someplace, so also no.
8. Nah, but I'm sure there's a price that'd make me go all-in.

Good questions!

[ER]

 9. Would you cut down the oldest tree on the planet for $10,000? (No, I love trees.)

10. Would you pull the plug on a complete stranger on life support in exchange for all your financial debts being canceled? (No.)

11. Would you rather swallow ten live goldfish, or drink a pint of grain alcohol? (The alcohol since it'd be a brief visitor.)

12. Would you rather stand on a Texas flag while urinating on the long barracks of the Alamo in broad daylight, or punch an on-duty cop in the face? (The cop, no question, since that would be survivable.)

13. Spend a week living with Marilyn Monroe's skeletal remains, or spend a week living with David Letterman. (Honestly, Marilyn's remains.)

And one for the road: 14. Walk for one minute into a crowded supermarket naked, or star in a reality show about your life, for one year? (The supermarket.)

9.   No. though I do like trees, especially a living relic, the "tree huggers" would kill me and my family. Those people are nuts!
10.  well, little billy is on life support, so he's probably not going to make it anyway. Im just saying, the needs of the many vs the few. His family is suffering right now. I mean, the brain damage is irreversible. He's technically not even alive right now. What?!!!
11. Goldfish. I eat fish from a can all the time, this isnt much of a stretch.
12. No. I would actually like to do both of these things, but i dont think they are survivable.
13. Marilyn. She may still be hot if she was enbalmed properly.

[ER]

1. Would you rather save your best friend from drowning, or save a plane filled with people from crashing? (Screw the people...)

2. Would you wax off all the hair on your body for ten-grand? (No...)

3. Which would you like better, a pint of chilled chocolate milk on a hot day, or seeing your enemy trip and fall in public? (The milk.)

4. Would you move to inner-Detroit if it meant you could live there for free? (No.)

5. If you were given the chance to keep your memories and personality and the wisdom of your life experience, and go back and relive kindergarten til the end of the highest educational level you achieved, then at the end zap back to yourself right now, would you? (Absolutely.)

1. Would you rather save your best friend from drowning, or save a plane filled with people from crashing? (Sorry, I'd have to save my friend.)

2. Would you wax off all the hair on your body for ten-grand? (That I would do. My hair grows back really fast.)

3. Which would you like better, a pint of chilled chocolate milk on a hot day, or seeing your enemy trip and fall in public? (Not that fond of chocolate milk, and I don't have any real enemies.  I wouldn't mind seeing Donald Trump do a face-plant, though.)

4. Would you move to inner-Detroit if it meant you could live there for free? (NEVER!)

5. If you were given the chance to keep your memories and personality and the wisdom of your life experience, and go back and relive kindergarten til the end of the highest educational level you achieved, then at the end zap back to yourself right now, would you? (Yup - except for the zapping back part.  I'd want a COMPLETE do-over.)
