Would you rather?

At work on Friday, I asked a few “Would you rather” questions. 

Would you rather have the ability to fly or the ability to be invisible?

Would you rather be blind or deaf?

Would you rather have popcorn stuck in the back of your mouth, or have a fly keep buzzing around when you’re trying to sleep?

It’s now almost 1am, and I’ve spent the better part of 15 20 minutes hunting a fly that’s been buzzing around.  I’d like to retract my original answer to the question;  I’d rather the popcorn.

Update: 1:23AM – Fly is dead.

    Would you rather spend a day with a herd of sheep or have children touch your knees all day?

    Steph,

    This is hands down the most personalized “would you rather” question I’ve ever been asked.

    Now that i’m done laughing intrusively loud (LIL?), and i’ve thought about it – I’m gonna go with the sheep.

    Just thinking about the kids touching me knees is making me all woobly inside.

    The thoughts of children touching my knees all day is very very strange. I’d go with the sheep too.

    Would you rather have the ability to fly or the ability to be invisible?
    To be invisible I think. You’d still be able to fly on planes ;)

    Would you rather be blind or deaf?
    Deaf. I think it would be harder to adjust to being blind.

    Would you rather have popcorn stuck in the back of your mouth, or have a fly keep buzzing around when you’re trying to sleep?
    Depends how big the fly is, but I’d say popcorn.

    Nice blog, I’ll visit again :)
