Zema Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 (I totally didn't steal this idea from somewhere else ) So this is pretty similar to the would you rather thread, but it's not quite the same. Essentially, you present a hypothetical scenario to the person below which involves them receiving a million dollars (or any large sum of money) but they also receive a negative consequence. They then have to decide whether they would take the money or not, and then present a new scenario for the next person. For example: Person 1: You get a million dollars but your hands are replaced by dog paws. Person 2: No way! You get a million dollars but for an hour everyday you forget how to speak. And so on in this fashion. Be as creative as you like! It doesn't have to be physically possible or even make much sense. (If you're lazy you can just type MDB instead of "million dollars but") I'll start: You get a million dollars but every time you see a cat you vomit a little bit in your mouth.

paporomantic Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 The million would be gone too fast this way and I'd remain broker than now, so nope. On a side note, can I haz $50K on a bit lighter conditions? You get a million dollars but have to live in a marriage with a person you hate (not a criminal, though) for N years (specify the maximum N where it's still a bargain for you). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swablu Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Haha no way, they'd spend my million faster than I could count it If I could keep it though... 6 years I'd say :v 50k, but you dye all the hair on your body to your least favourite colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starry Sky Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 My hair already is my least favorite color. Yes You get a million dollars but you can only eat baby food for the rest of your life. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArodynamicallyFavored Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 a watch...A wallet...A walrus...A walnut.... In Wal-Mart you can get 2million dollars but you have to give everything you buy to charity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paporomantic Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Sure, I'd just ship that to AVEN, Asexual Outreach and Arocalypse so that they put me on a lifetime pension and buy everything that I need for me (and, formally, I'd never buy anything myself). They'd become very influential, help all the latent aces and aros in the world come out and eventually find a bunch of companions for me You get $1M as a consolation prize in a lottery whose main prize is $100M because the vendor made a misprint in the numbers that you told them to pick, and the sequence that you wanted them to print would have won the $100M. You get a unique kind of PTSD as a result and the only shrink in the world who can fix it charges $450K and their services aren't covered by insurance, plus you pay $500K in tax. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-TheTimelordsCompanion Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Ummmm, so I basically get 50k and PTSD? Thanks for the wonderful offer, however I must respectfully decline. You get $1m but every purchase you make for the next 5 years must be approved by a particularly judgmental uncle, who will constantly demand that you justify your life choices.

deltaX Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I have that particularly judgmental uncle. No thanks D: You get 1 million dollars, but you are not allowed to buy food for the next year, and must constantly mooch food off your friends to feed yourself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassiopeia Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Not a problem, I'll just buy a huge piece of land and grow some food together with my friends. I'd take it. :is a goddamn hippy at heart: You get 1 millon dollars, but you can only shop online? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgypotato Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Yes! Means I never have to leave my house until I run out of money!!! You get 1 million dollars, but you lose your current sexual and romantic orientations, and get random new ones (based on real probabilities of what you were assigned with to begin with)! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltaX Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 No. I don't think there's anything wrong with having a different orientation, but I don't feel like I'd be me anymore if something so important were to change. You get 1 million dollars, but you cannot leave your house without wearing a bright T-shirt that says "I'm rich; please mug or rob me!" 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zema Posted June 21, 2016 Author Share Posted June 21, 2016 Yes. I'll just put a jumper over the top You get 1 million dollars but for every $100 you spend, you have to pick your nose and eat it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis On Air Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Cool cool $1m but you must participate in a Japanese Game Show every week! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zema Posted June 21, 2016 Author Share Posted June 21, 2016 Are there prizes involved with that? If yes, I probably would take the money. If no, then I probably wouldn't take the money. A million dollars but for 5 minutes every hour, a random, non-vital body part of yours disappears. It will return after the 5 minutes is up, and it won't be painful or cause any damage at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis On Air Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Yeah why not? $1m but you must dig a 10km tunnel with your bare hands! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltaX Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Nope, not worth it You get 1 million dollars, but your appearance changes so that you permanently look like a 10 year-old kid 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zema Posted June 22, 2016 Author Share Posted June 22, 2016 Yeah, why not? I'm planning on becoming a physicist so that wouldn't effect me too much.

Cassiopeia Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Nah. Bad hygiene is yuck. You get a million dollars, but you have to live in the poorest country in the world, you have to keep all of it in the local currency and you can only shop locally?
