rationing, because i am statist scum

would you rather be infamous or not notable?
Avatar of Drake
no, because the overwhelming majority of revolutions do not result in anything resembling the intended society

would you rather be a professional pianist or a professional trumpeter?

well timed and powerful, not least because the former implies a child to take care of

would you rather that there be a heaven and hell (assume that: exactly equal numbers of people go to each, the level suffering felt in hell is exactly equivalent to the amount of pleasure felt in heaven), or that there be neither?

twilight movies, because i read alicorn's luminosity fic a while back and context would be marginally useful. also allegedly the acting is amusingly over-the-top.

would you rather look precisely like nic cage for a month, or have nic cage possess your body for a week?

the average person on earth has less than half the expected qalys remaining in their life than the average 16-year-old 1st-world kid. not even considering the probability of various solipsistic scenarios, save myself

would you rather be paraplegic for two years (followed by your death) or have a terminal illness that will kill you in three months, but does not reduce functionality?

anarchist, because mild preferences in a specific game are unlikely to correlate heavily with any particular characteristic irl

would you rather press a button that kills a single arbitrary person on the planet, or kill yourself?

wealth, obviously, because fame is an instrumental goal to wealth's terminal.

would you rather one-box or two-box on newcomb's problem? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

since i'm the only person who's picked 'neutral religion, negative spirituality" i think i should explain. obviously in my own worldview both are provably false, so truth doesn't really come into it; rather religion is a far more attractive meme, so intelligent people are more likely to get drawn to it. spirituality is almost always indicative of ignorance, as far as my experience goes. to state more succinctly: the fact "person X believes in organized religion" is far less evidence for the conclusion "person X is someone who i would dislike" than "person X is spiritual".
