Rules of the game are simple: Ask the person below you if they would take a million dollars, even if it means they have to go through a goofy scenario as part of the deal. Repetition of the questions are allowed.
Original thread here. (http://www.soopergrape.com/RAF/index.php/topic,92.0.html)
Quote from: PerifaenYep.
If you could only talk in questions for the next two and a half years.
Well, I think I ought to take that deal, don't you think? One million for one temporary annoying quirk is a fair tradeoff, isn't it?
If the bugs on this forum never got fixed?
Sure. We could still use this forum, and the back up forum. Besides, I would put money into fixing this forum.
If you had massive, feathered wings on your back but you could never use them?
Course, I'd just get them removed.
If you were reduced to just a head.
Nope!
If you had to adopt ten young children and be the only one looking after them :P
(You'd have your wings cut off? ;o; )
Yes, because I could use the money to hire someone else to do that.
If it was Monopoly money.
(Well, I can't use them, so they'd just be in the way. Besides, I could buy a jetpack with my money :D)
Sure. I'll find a use for it ;D
If you had your gender changed
(This game's cool)
NO WAY!!!!
If you had to play a million dollars game with everything that is said coming true if you accept it.
Is this change retroactive to your birth, or are other people aware that you were at one time different? If the former, do you keep your old memories, the memories from your "new" past, or both?
While I think the answers to those questions are important, it's all ultimately moot, though; I couldn't do it in any case. Not because I would personally find it undesirable, mind you; I actually think it'd be very interesting to experience what life was like on the "other side". But my religious beliefs state that I am the way I am for a reason, and I wouldn't want to disrupt that purpose.
Edit: Interesting; apparently the forum no longer has a warning message for when somebody posts before you.
To Del's question: I think I'll pass.
If, from every midnight to six AM, for the rest of your life, you were transformed into a domestic cat?
That might be helpful actually...
If you became Jar-Jar for the rest of your life.
No.
...if you could never leave your house without being inside of a space suit?
yep.
If you never got to visit this website again (or contact anyone from it, or go on the temp forum, etc).
I'd answered one like this one before, so part of this will retread my old answer.
To never visit this website again... I'd thought I was going to do it before, and came pretty close to three years. So, I could do that.
I can't make any promise that would involve me never contacting anyone from here again, though, particularly if one of them tried to get in touch with me. If someone thinks enough of me to go to lengths to seek me out, I don't want to not be available for them. A tax-free million dollars would be nice, but I trust my monetary needs can be met without it. So I have to say no.
...if you would have an extra near-death experience added to your life? You don't know when or how it will happen, only that, at some point in your life, it will. It could be something as short and simple as nearly getting hit by a speeding train, or as protracted and complicated as getting a deadly disease and struggling with it for years before finally going into remission. Also, you will never know when the extra near-death experience has already happened (so if you do have a near-death experience, you won't know whether it was a normal one that wasn't caused by your acceptance of these conditions, or the one).
Well, if it's a near-death experience, I won't die, so...maybe.
If your age was instantly advanced to 80 years old.
If I could choose the type of experience, I would say it. However, since I can't choose the type of the experience, I'd deny.
(Reading some of the responses has been pretty surprising. A million dollars isn't much once you have it, people.)
... If you had to be afflicted with either therianthropy or vampirism.

Uhh...I think you were just ninja'd.
Quote from: Me
Definitely! (If it was therianthropy. Immortality is cool an all, but SHAPESHIFITNG!!!1!!1!!1!!!!1!one!)
If your age was instantly advanced to 80 years old.
No no no no no no no! I'd rather die than live to be 80 years old!
If you had to eat nothing but soggy bread for a year. (The kind that squishes when you bite into it)
Soggy bread was one of my favorite foods when I was little, but I don't think I could handle it now :P I'll pass.
If you couldn't use your left foot for eight months?
That sounds like it'd be really annoying... but it's only for eight months, and think of all the good that could be done with the money.
I think in this case I'd have to take one for the team.
...if the cause or organization you detest the most would also get an extra million dollars?
Absolutely not.
If you had to ride the Titan (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titan_(roller_coaster)) once every hour for two days straight?
Sounds fun, I would agree to that.
If you had to live in a tent in the middle of a forest and couldn't use your money to buy a house.
I'd be totally down for that. That sounds like a lot of fun.
If the only currency you were allowed to use was pennies?
heheh... people would hate me ;D I don't think I could do it, so no.
If you had to kill a baby bunny and make a chicken eat it? (I'm running out of ideas :P )
That's really sick. No.
...if you had to live your life as a musical, periodically composing and singing songs, on the spot, relevant to what's going on in your life? (And any time the song wasn't good enough, or wasn't loud enough, twenty thousand invisible people that nobody but you could hear would jeer you.)
Um... I can't sing so save my life, so no.
If you had to do nothing but travel your entire life. (You wouldn't be able to stay at one place for more than a month, and you wouldn't be able to buy any houses)
(@James: really glad you said no to that one :P )
Absolutely yes.
If you could only eat off of the McDonald's dollar menu for the next fifteen months?
No, because they say McDonalds is going to be getting rid of the dollar menu, and I don't want to starve. ;)
...if you had to always introduce yourself, to anyone that you're meeting for the first time, as "Darth Felicia, the Dark Lord of the Sith"? (You would have to say this in fully serious tones, and not correct yourself until no less than five minutes had passed.)
Not on your life.
If you lost 1000 dollars a day for the rest of your life.
No, it would take less than two weeks to lose the million you just received.
If you could eat only baby food, the kind in the jars, for a month.
Sure; delicious and nutritious!
...if you had to faithfully support and vote for the political party you disagree with every election for the rest of your life (doing things like placing signs supporting their candidates in your front yard, putting their bumper stickers on your car(s), and wearing their campaign hats/T-shirts/etc.)?
No.
If you could only take your garbage out every three weeks.
From now on?
Sure; get a bigger trash can.
...if you had to change your name to "Jamie Jesse Jones". This name could never be changed again in your life, with the sole exception of if you get married and want to change your last name.
Absolutely I would, because that name sounds not unlike mine, and I could keep my nickname, as it works for "Jamie" as well.
...if you had to take on a part-time unpaid position as a mascot in a large, bulky, hot, ridiculous costume that reveals your face and hand out fliers for a year?
Sure! Why not?
If you had to do exactly what Banya said, but for two years.
Um. . . I guess.
If there was slime on your feet every time you put something on.
No! Heck no! Slime on my feet? That would drive my sensory issues insane!
If your hands and feet switched places.
No.
If you couldn't sleep for the next 20 years?
Pretty sure I would die, so no.
If the money wasn't valid for 50 years.
Yes, definitely.
If you could eat only broccoli for six months?
Definitely!
If you had to live with absolutely no money or anything of monetary worth except for what you have on you're wearing and food for a week.
Live without money (except for food) for a week? And I get a million dollars afterwards? OF COURSE!
If you could only spend the money on groceries.
Sure! Why not? Never have to spend any money that is being made on groceries for a very long time! ;D
I think my last one was misunderstood.
If you lost everything that was worth money, except for your food and what you were wearing, and couldn't get anything else until a week had gone by.
No problem. The only things of significant monetary value I own are textbooks, and you can have 'em.
If you had to keep your head shaved for the rest of your life?
I could look like my dad.
If you could do nothing but sit in a chair for the next 15 years?
No.
If you had to live in the Arctic for three years.
Of course.
If you had to watch little kid shows for one year.
Sure! They make me fall asleep anyway.
If you had to walk everywhere, no cars, boats, or planes.
Absolutely!
If you had to give up all sweet things for the rest of your life?
I'd try it, but I have some blood sugar issues so I need sugar every once in a while. . .
If you had to wear flannel or plaid only for the rest of your life. (Personally, I would go with a Scottish kilt. . . better than plaid pants.)
Definitely!
@Vilu, that sounds fun! Veggietales and Winne the Pooh here I come! ;D
If you would die if you spent more than one hundred dollars a month.
Nope!
If you could only spend it on buying kittens and paying for their needs.
Absolutely. :P
If you had to walk on your tiptoes for the rest of your life?
Um, I don't think so.
If you had to wear summer clothes in winter and winter clothes in summer for the rest of your life.
No
If you had to be caught in a real life situation that plays out like the mafia game.
Sure. Sounds fun :P
If you lost your sense of smell.
No, because then you couldn't taste anything!
If you couldn't taste for the rest of your life.
No, food is yummy :D
If you couldn't see or have contact with the person you feel closest to for a year.
I'm not sure who that is, but if it's just a year, I'd have to think about it. Everywhere on Earth people have been forced to do close to the same for much less gain.
...if you would be caused to believe, after accepting the money, that you had deprived needy people of a larger sum of money?
Nope.
If you could only wear flip flops.
No.
If you became afraid of the ground once you got it?
No.
If you could read nothing but math books for a year?
Nope, that would make my head cringe in pain.
If you'd lost your sense of hearing?
I'd have to think about it, but I'm pretty sure I'd have to decline.
... if you could never vote in any government election (for your country, state or city) again?
No. The million dollars would probably do more than my single vote, but it feels like being bought out and that would be hard to live with.
If you had to spend an hour a day upright on a treadmill.
Yes, I wouldn't turn it on.
If you always had to do what I say?
No.
Recycled question:
...if all of your siblings (older and younger) were put in charge over you? (So if you have a six-year-old little sister, you have to obey them now, or you'll get in trouble.)
If you're an only child, then your parents adopt a sibling of the opposite gender significantly younger than you. The same conditions apply.
If you're of age and living on your own, you still have to do it whenever it comes up, or you get written out of the will.
No.
If you could only drink lemonade?
If I could survive on it, I guess. I would just eat no other sugar.
If you (only you) could never use.
Do you mean the million dollars? Ya sure why not, I'd be like the world's best friend if I started handing out a million dollars. It would suck that I couldn't use any of it, but it would be selfish to decline just because I couldn't use it myself.
If that million was only usable in a country hostile to your homeland?
Is it a million USD? If so, yes.
If you had to live on a boat with all of the facilities you need and more?
Would you take a million dollars, even if there was a catch?
Rules of the game are simple: Ask the person below you if they would take a million dollars, even if it means they have to go through a goofy scenario as part of the deal. Repetition of the questions are allowed.
MDB: You need to crawl on the ground on your hands and knees every time you go into a library.
Yes.
If you had to do the "Gollum" cough every time you laughed.
. . . Yeah, I probably would.
If, for an entire year, you ate nothing but burritos.
No...
If you had to die and then be brought back every other Wednesday.
I can get the money converted so YEAH. So long as I was guaranteed to come back to life every time. I'd probably try to control all my deaths and make them different to keep things interesting.
If you could never eat again but still lived a natural lifespan?
Depends, would I become hungry or be completely satisfied throughout life? If the latter yes, if the former, no.
If you had to be tased once every six months.
Oh yes, definitely.
If you had to eat your headphones every time they broke.
I'd consider it, but only now while my headphones are still working (so I can give them up in advance). Eating a set of headphones would probably make me very sick. A million dollars is a lot of money, but I'm not sure it's worth that kind of risk.
If you lost the ability to have romantic relationships and feelings, for the rest of your life? (You could still like or love people, but they would all be permanently friend-zoned to you, and you would never desire anything more.)
. . . Nope.
If for an entire year you had to carry a rock like a baby everywhere you went.
No.
If you had to shave your head bald and wear cooked spaghetti noodles instead of your hair for six months.
Yes, possibly. But I would wear a hat every time I had to go somewhere.
If you couldn't have a shower for a year.
Yes.
If you had to spend five hours of each day brushing your hair.
No...I don't spend 5 minutes brushing my hair! Maybe ten seconds!
If you ran away from home by a river using a raft and you left that on the island that you run away to and everyone in your town thinks that you are dead and starts mourning. Only to have you burst into your funeral service to the shock of everyone there. (Anyone want to guess what I am reading currently?) ;D ;D
Probably would. :P (I have no idea what you're reading.)
If you had to clip your toenails with your teeth every time it needed to be done.
How's that possible? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventures_of_Tom_Sawyer)
No.
If you were placed in solitary confinement for a year?
(Very good Gryphon!) ;D ;D
Probably not, lose track of time and all that.
If you had to eat your favorite stuffed animal.
What's with this focus on eating things? No.
If you had to become illiterate for the rest of your life?
No again. :P
If every time you saw a dog you had to lick it.
We have a dog. No.
If, for the rest of your life, you could only use computers that are fifteen years obsolete (behind whatever time you're in)? This includes phones, consoles, etc.
No.
If you had to destroy all of your favorite Video Games.
If I got a million dollars, I'd be able to purchase some more. So yeah. :P
Quote from: Skarzs on December 20, 2015, 12:46:06 AM
If every time you hear a dog's bark you had to lick it.
No, we have three dogs in our neighborhood that are aggressive breeds, (Pit Bull for one.) and they bark extensively.
If you had to eat your sisters hair at every dinner.
Nerp.
If you can only listen to music on speakers on not earbuds nor headphones.
Yes. I don't usually listen to music on headphones.
If you had to own a monkey that repeated exactly what you said in a squeaky voice.
No, cus I already have an annoying little brother. A monkey would make me homicidal.
If you had to say everything in screamo style for the rest of your life.
Nah. . .
Quote from: rachel25 on December 20, 2015, 02:29:35 PM
No, cus I already have an annoying little brother. A monkey would make me homicidal.
How about genocidal? Toward monkeys?
(Kill them allll. . .)If your ears wiggled every time you saw something you liked.
Sure.
If you could only eat soemthing besides brussel sprouts on a leap year.
No.
If your whole family has to live in a house for several months that has mold infesting the bedrooms that causes you to have headaches, so then you're forced to sleep in the living room on mattresses laid out on the floor. And when the cold and terrible winter comes you can only use piles of blankets and space heaters because the furnace will blow mold spores out the vents. Also, every time you get a headache once every week or so, you have to snort this horrible oregano rinse up your nose that about burns your nasal passages off.
Sounds good to me.
If you would instantly gain a huge unrequited crush on a random person that you know (of the opposite gender)? It will last a year, upon which time you'll get another crush under the same conditions. This will happen every year for the rest of your life. It is possible to crush on the same person more than once.
Sure. It would be a nice change of pace.
If you had to sing every thing you said for the rest of your life?
No because I'd probably end up regretting it :P
If you had to sleep during the day and be active at night?
(Cool game btw)
Sure, I do that anyway.
If you became completely colorblind for the rest of your life?
No.
If you were not allowed to ever read another book again.
Nah.
If your life span was decreased by ten years?
Definitely not.
If you had to eat dog food after every meal.
I could do that. I do like musicals after all.
You'd never get to see the end of the tv series your currently watching and no one would ever tell you either. So you'd never find out.
That usually happens anyway so...
If you couldn't wash your clothes for a year and weren't aloud to buy new ones to wear instead.
Can someone else wash them?
If so, definitely; if not, no.
If you had to permanently change your name to "Filter Headquarters Robot"?
If I could go by a nickname I might.
@James, no one can wash them for you.
If you would't be able to talk to your forum friends again.
No.
If you were changed to the Borg Queen and began assimilating all life on Earth. ;D ;D
You know, I'd pass.
If you forgot all memories (Except stuff you learned and basic things like walking).
No way!
If you had to eat 40 horseradishes without pause or method to cool thy mouth. And then not cool thy mouth for 10 minutes.
Gosh no!
You had to be buried at an unmarked grave with no funeral or mourning when you die.
Maybe not...
If you had to sleep curled up lengthwise in an air-duct for one night, without moving.
I would have definitely taken the 1M for the unmarked grave. What should I care where and how I'm buried after I die?
I'm not sure there's an air duct in the world that's big enough to fit me, but if there was, that sounds fair to me.
If you could never wear shirts, coats, jackets, vests, scarves, and any other clothing meant for the upper body (not counting hats or headgear) in any color but pink for the rest of your life.
Nuuu.... Sure, there are lots of shades of pink, so I could potentially mix it up, but still. O_O
If you had to destroy all files you have created on your computer in the past two weeks. Oh, and without creating backups, and if you have any, you have to delete them.
Does this include modifications of files that were created before that time?
Either way... I think I'd have to bite the bullet and say yes. The same mind that created those files will still (hopefuilly) be around to create anything that needs to be created again, or better. Nothing I've ever made has sold for a million dollars yet, so this would be trading up.
(If you count files on other servers, this does mean that the new forum gets destroyed, though.)
In return for agreeing to an arranged marriage? (Your parents will make the decision for you who you're to get married to, with that person or their family's approval. If you're not eligible to marry yet, it will happen as soon as you turn that age.)
Considering I'm not Oliver Queen-ripped, then no.
You had to leave the forum and never return?
I did it before. I'd hate to leave y'all, but I don't think I've been worth a million dollars to you, and that kind of money could make a big difference for my family, the church, etc.
If you had to go back through this topic and agree to all of the things that people didn't agree to that you think they should have?
I'll pass.
You'd be able to think of nothing but the song you hate most in the world for a year.
No.
If you became 12 years old for the rest of your life? Your body would be reverted to its state at that time, but you would keep the memories you've acquired since then. Rather than aging, you would just die suddenly of natural causes at the same time you would have otherwise.
One hundred percent no.
Have to work stacking selves for the rest of your life.
No.
If you had to eat a worm once a month for one year.
Worms are supposed to have nutritional value. All the same, I'l pass.
If you had to be constantly cleaning your house? It's not that it would be dirty, you just can't stand it if it's not perfectly clean. And trust me, things only stay perfectly clean for ten minutes. If that. (I know from my own Saturday chores.)
Why would you pass that one up, Amber?

You have not seen my house. You have not seen how futile it is. I am constantly cleaning anyways.
If you had to live in a house with ten people you didn't know for two years.
If they would either leave me alone or I got to know them better.
If you would have to go through high school for six years rather than four.
Yes.
If you could never say the words "the" or "and".
Sure!
If you had to destroy all of methods to access the internet.
Nope.
If you had to live in isolation with no form of human interaction for three years (meaning no internet, no phones, no going outside, no letters, etc.)
No way!
If you were never allowed to talk, and had to use sign language to communicate for the rest of your life.

What, you mean the one where you have to stock shelves for the rest of your life? I dunno, it just sounded super boring to do every day.
Me? Seriously? Do you think that I would ever agree to that? ;D ;D No.
If you had to talk nonstop for three days. No pauses, none whatsoever.
Sounds tiring but I'd give it a go.
Have to burn all your favourite books and films.
No.
If you had to live for two weeks in the wilderness with no food water or shelter and you had to secure all of those things yourself.
Yup.
If you had to stay in school 3 extra years.
Yep.
If you could only talk in questions for the next two and a half years.
I could probably swing that.
Everyone would also be in a bad mood with you.
For how long? If it is for my entire life then no but otherwise I might.
If you could only wear beautiful gowns with long trains (if you are a female) or tailored tailcoats and tuxedo pants (if you are a male) no matter the weather or conditions.
Probably not...
If you had to go without looking at anything with a screen except for a window for a year.
For a million dollars?
... I guess I'd take that challenge. I made it five months once.
If the old forum went down and never came back?
Yes.
If both forums went down and never came back, but another forum is formed in their places.
Yeah.
If you could never make contact in any way with anyone from the forum again.
No.
If you couldn't leave your house for a year
No way!!!!
If you had to eat your favorite food for every meal of every day for a year.
No. I don't have a definite favourite anyway.
If you had to start a new hobby you have never heard about and do it for three years.
So long as it doesn't conflict with my beliefs, that sounds reasonable.
If you had to sport several nasty scratches on your face (on both sides and on the forehead) for the next three years.
Ok.
If you could use electronic devices for a total of only an hour a day.
No.
If you could never, ever drive an automobile on public roads?
Um...No.
You'd have to suffer an eye infection twice a year.
Yes.
If you couldn't talk for the rest of your life?
No and you're brave. ;)
You'd have to eat nothing but salad for the rest of your life.
That sounds dull, but fair. At least I'd be healthy.
If you forgot everything that happened within the past year of your life?
Tempting, but no.
If you could never eat your favorite food again?
I'd have to take one for the team. There are other foods out there.
If you had to compose your own theme song, and sing it, in its entirety, loudly, every time that you get out of bed?
Definitely!!! ;D
Quote from: Cornflower MM on January 02, 2016, 05:14:11 PM
Tempting, but no.
If you could never eat your favorite food again?
Why not? It's only the second day of the year!!! ;D
If you had to use :-* in every post on every forum that you are a member of.
Good-bye forums.
If all of your siblings (older and younger) were put in charge over you? (So if you have a six-year-old little sister, you have to obey them now, or you'll get in trouble.)
If you're an only child, then your parents adopt a sibling of the opposite gender much younger than you. The same conditions apply.
(If you're of age and living on your own, you still have to do it, or you get written out of the will.)
Nope. No, no way.
If you had listen to your least favorite song until it was your favorite?
Nope. I'm pretty sure that there's nothing that could make me like listening to Madonna, but I don't want to take that chance.
If you had to wear garments (like a burqa) that cover you, from head to toe, whenever you're outside of your house, for the rest of your life?
(It doesn't have to be an actual burqa, just any garment, costume or uniform that completely covers your body (including eyes, hands, etc.) Stormtrooper armor, for instance, would qualify as well.)
Hmm, I'll pass. How could I dance like that?
If you had to get a picture of a fish tattooed on your forehead?
Nope; against my beliefs. Anyway, it would be a shame to alter something so perfect. I couldn't deprive humanity of that. ;)
If there would be an assassination attempt on you, once a year, for the rest of your life? You would get 24 hours' advance warning before each attempt.
Oh yes. Definitely. I love mind games, no matter how deadly. Woe to the assassin. ;)
If every time you started something significant (like a company, or a new career) it was doomed to fail?
No.
If you could never read another Redwall book until you spend every single dollar.
Yes!
If you turned invisible for the rest of your life? Any clothing you're wearing or objects you carry would also become invisible.
Yes.
If you would spend the rest of your life without a high-paying job.
Nah.
If you had to repeat everything you said to be understood, for the rest of your life? (This only applies to vocal communication.)
Yup, I do that enough already.
If you could only see each movie ten years after it came out.
Sure. Don't typically watch them, don't care.
If you were never able to see the sun or sunlight again? (Pictures of sunlit areas don't count; we're talking only genuine sunlight.)
No. Never.
If you could only write and ytpe to communicate for the rest of you life?
I don't think so... but honestly, I'd have to think about that. I seem to do a better job that way than with my voice.
If you were permanently in your ten-year-old body? You would never age, but you would die at the same time that you would have died normally. If your body, brain, etc. were damaged or injured in any way, they would slowly regenerate until they were back to normal state.
No thank you, I was quite short.
If you had to sing one song everyday - In a public place?
I don't think that I could. I'd like to, a million dollars is a lot of money... but I'm not sure that's in me.
If there would always be a problem with anything you do for a public audience, that you wouldn't find out about until after they had seen it?
Well, I want to be a costume designer for the theatre so no.
Have to burn your favourite books.
Nah.
If you had to be the prisoner in The Pit and the Pendulum, or for those who don't know what I'm talking about, contract the Red Death, and if people still don't know what I am talking about, they had to be buried alive on your 70th birthday.
I still don't know what you're talking about.
No.
If you developed an intense, lifelong crush on whichever person that you're currently most inclined to like anyway?
Sure! Already pretty much doing that already! Not sure if it will be lifelong but we shall see!
If you had to eat whatever thing is in your username unless it's already a food, such as if you are James Gryphon, you would have to eat a Gryphon, if you are Cornflower MM you would have to eat a flower.
Eating a sword, whether it's from the sky or not, may kill me. No.
If you had to burn down your room.
Sure. It's almost empty right now, I think. There'd probably still be some stuff I would miss, but for a million bucks, well -- at the risk of sounding like a broken record, take one for the team.
If you could only eat fruit for the rest of your life?
No. Firstly, that'd probably be bad for the body. Secondly...I like food.
If you had to get three random fingers removed.
No; they might be thumbs.
If you had to lose an eye? It doesn't have to be literally gone from your body; it can just go blind, if that's how you want it. You can choose which eye.
Yes. It'd be nerve-wracking to know that if my other eye goes blind as well, I'll lose my vision (which wasn't good to start with). Also, having one eye reduces depth perception and range of vision. Still...as James has said, "Think of all the good that could be done with that money" and "Take one for the team." Also, I have a character with one eye, and it'd be pretty cool to wear an eye patch just like him ;D
If you could never drive a car for the rest of your life.
I don't drive now. $1M would go a long way towards assuaging my annoyance with that. You can be successful in life without driving yourself around.
If you could never allow anyone to see your face outside of your house again?
Sure! Plastic surgery by a drone! But if that isn't allowed, maybe, I don't think so though.
If you could never hear any music ever again. Upon pain of death.
No.
If you couldn't see or talk to your crush again.
Yes. I don't have a crush, so I'd have nothing to worry about.
If, approximately a year after your payment, you were rendered incapable of speaking English or any English-hybrid language.
Sure. There are other ways of communication, and Latin is an option.
If there was no other way of transportation for you except for using a segway for six months.
Hmmmm.... sure.
If you had to gain a mental disability (it wouldn't leave you unable to function, but it would affect your daily life).
(And who speaks Latin anymore? It's a dead language :P )
No.
If you had to gain my personality that I show on the forums, in real life, once a year, for a day.
Sure.
If you could wear only neon colours for a year.
No.
If you had to begin a three year journey of the world on the same day you got the money.
Definitely! That is a good thing! Awesome!!!
If every time you took a step, you were placed two steps in the opposite direction, until you figured out how to beat this by walking in the opposite direction of the way you wanted to go, and then it switches.
No that would be quire frustrating.
If you couldn't sleep with a pillow.
Yes.
If you became color blind?
No.
If after every sentence you had to put this face ???
Sure.
If you could only get "just passing" grades in school from now on?
No.
If you couldn't own an electronic device for the rest of your life.
Can I rent?
Nah.
...if, from now on, you had green skin (also, this would be a hereditary trait; that is, it could be passed down to your children)? It would be the same shade (darkness) as your current skin color.
Need more money.
No.
If you couldn't live in civilization.
What's the point of the money then?
If you had to wear a big coat all year round?
I said "LIVE." You can still go in very quickly to buy stuff, or use Ebay or something.
Yes, I would just carry around an air conditioner.
If you could only spend it at discount stores.
Sure! Why not?
If you had to be trapped in a room with Groddil VV for 24 hours.
If I have my gryphon powers, sure. Otherwise, no.
If, for the rest of your life, you could never get any result from rolling a die or drawing cards other than the worst possible outcome for you. If other people roll or draw for you, it will turn out the same way. If you play any games that rely on RNGs, the RNG will always generate numbers contrary to your desired result.
I don't see why not!
If you would have to eat three pies every holiday. But only holidays that are celebrated where you live.
No. Three pies in one day? That's sickening :P one slice is more than enough
If you had to tell the person you hate the most all of your worst secrets and fears?
Since I don't hate anyone, yes.
If you could only spend it on worthless stuff?
Quote from: Lord Daskar on January 25, 2016, 05:30:58 PM
Since I don't hate anyone, yes.
:)
"Worthless" is subjective ;) Sure - I've got nothing to lose, and I might be able to do something with that stuff (selling or trading).
If you had to give up your favorite hobby.
Yes. With a million bucks I could take up a new hobby.
If you could only go to sleep every three days?
No. That sounds unhealthy and risky. My current sleep schedule is thankfully way better than that, and yet I'm still tired :P ;D
If you became physically unable to walk.
Yes, I could buy something to ride on.
If you could never spend more than 100 dollars at a time?
Sure, why not? It's still a million.
If you became unable to speak.
Sure, I could still dance. I can write. Teaching would be a pain, and so would other things. . . But meh.
If all your toes got chopped off. (You could still balance, and walk after the wounds were healed.)
I'm fine with that.
If all your fingers got chopped off.
Yes. Imagine how I could scare people. "Hey, look at my fingers!" Although it would make typing and drawing blasted inconvenient...
If you became immortal. As in, nothing could kill you. You drink poison, you suffer agonies but don't die; you age, but don't die; you get cancer, but don't die; you get chopped into tiny little pieces, you still don't die...
Yep, why not.
If you could never see another person ever again.
No.
If you could never come on this forum (or the actual Redwall forum) ever again.
Nope.
If you were blinded with no way to recover your sight ever again.
No.
If your mind would contain multiple, conflicting personalities. These personalities can't control your physical form, but they can influence you.
Fun, yep.
If you BECAME one of the personalities that couldn't control your physical form, but can influence you.
...it depends on who gets to run me. But if I like them, I'd consider it.
...if you were hired by the federal government, for your full-time job, to sneak around at night (from 9 PM to 6 AM) scaring people? You also would receive $60,000 a year, with complete health insurance, and a bonus for every extra person that gets scared. If you ever got arrested by unknowing police officers, your friends in the government would make sure you were freed.
Don't see how that's a bad thing. Deal.
If you had to live in the middle of the Sahara Desert and could never leave. You could purchase everything you needed over the internet.
For just a million, I think I'd have to pass.
...if, every day for the rest of your life, you were required to personally go to a store, ask them if they had a (real) product that you know they don't have, and then not buy anything from that store? The product you must ask for from that store must always be the same item, and the store must always be the same store. If you get barred from the premises, or the store permanently closes its doors, you are required to select a new store (and product, if you want). If the store is temporarily closed (such as on weekends), you may be excused for that day. If you're sick, injured or otherwise unable to appear that day, you may call the store on the phone instead.
If the store ever actually does have the product (whether because they got it specially for you, or they started selling it without your knowledge), you must turn it down. You must then switch to asking for a new product they don't have.
No. It would be very annoying.
All your clothes, furniture, and books turned to different shades of pink.
If I were a girl, I'd say absolutely yes. Given that I'm not, I have to decline. I'm not quite secure enough to live with that.
...if you had to carry around Monopoly (or some other game's) money with you, and always try to use it to buy products before using your actual method of payment?
Sure, that would be funny :P
If you had to move to a country with a very different culture and language, then never be able to go back to your own home even if you're just visiting family?
Huge change and possible risk, ergh, but for a million? I think I would do it. Besides, I have experience with that.
If every morning you woke up in a different, random place in your city.
I would get to know the city really well. ;D So yeah I would do that.
If your required to join a EOD Team in the Army (Explosive Ordinance Disposal [Defusing active bombs]) Which requires basic military training, EOD training, and Infantry training.
There are some things about basic training (like the bathroom situations) which I'm afraid are untenable for me. Maybe I could do it someday, but at the point I'm at in my life, I don't think I'm up to that.
... if you had to sleep on the floor for the next seven years?
Yeah, I'd just have my bedroom floor be a giant mattress ;D
If you had to have a limb of your choice surgically removed, then struggle with medical problems for the rest of your life.
Hades no. Definitely not.
If you had to hear a shrill screeching for the rest of your life that no one else can hear.
I think I already have that XD. Sure.
If you had to change houses every month for the rest of your life. You wouldn't have to pay, but still.
Definitely :P
If you had to re-do Elementary school?
Eeeeeeeasy Money.
If you could only communicate for three years using emoji. When your face to face with someone you would have a piece of paper with the emoji on it which you would have to point to.
I would devise a chart:
A = :)
B = ;)
C = :D
etc.
So, yeah.
If you could not communicate in any way for a year.
Sure, I could really nail some dance techniques.
If you could only hop
Why not?
If you couldn't read books, watch TV, or access the internet for three years.
I'd miss my books and you all. . . . But again - Dance! Dancey dancey dancey!
If you had to do a perfect set of fouettes every hour on the hour for a year. (If you mess up, your year resets. And if you don't know what a fouette is, go look it up.)
I'd create and new fouette. Yes.
If you couldn't read any books you liked more than once and you couldn't own them or listen to someone else read it.
It would suck, but I would take a million for it.
If it was an inheritance from a Nigerian Prince who had just died and all you just had to give the lawyer your bank account number so he could give you the money...?
I don't understand, but it sounds fine...
If you had to submerge your head completely in water for two minutes a day, you would have a friend with a watch to pull you out on the two minute mark if you passed out.
Sure.
Quote from: Delthion on February 05, 2016, 03:25:43 AM
I don't understand, but it sounds fine...
The Nigerian Prince thing is a pretty famous scam.
If you had to speak in Indrick Boreale's accent every day for the rest of your life. (If you don't know what it is, look up Boreale)
Sure...?
If you had to keep at least twenty-five cats in your place of residence for the next year.
Sure. As long as food and stuff was provided for them by someone who's not me.
If, out of all of the members of the opposite sex on the forum, you had to pick one and then marry them. And you aren't allowed to get a divorce.
Sure.
If you had to anger everyone on this forum.
. . . . . . . . Well I've done it at different time sin the past, and am going to have to do it again sooner or later, so yeah why not. It would give me a good reason to spit it out.
If you had an arranged marriage and didn't even see a picture of the other person until you're actually getting married.
...No. He might be a murderer or something...
(Going to have to do it again?)
If you could only wash your hair once a month for a year.
No. That's. . . No. *Shudders*
If you couldn't use a penny of it for yourself
Sure! You give it all to your Uncle, on a condition that he change his will to give all his money to you on his death, murder the uncle, problem solved! ;D
If you had to murder someone to get it.
No, never.
If you had to assign a song to every major event in your life and change it every year.
I don't fully understand, but if I'm interpreting that correctly, it's something I kind of do already. So sure.
If you had to choose one letter and start all your sentences with that letter (speech only).
Sure I'd do that. Kinda hard to pick which letter though. I'd say probably 'I'
If you had to suffer pain like a cactus thorn in the bottom of your big toe, and in your right index finger for the rest of your life.
No.
If you had to eat pasta at every meal.
Sure. Three noodles a day is manageable.
If you could only take cold showers from now on.
Sure. I'll take warm baths. ;D Or just shower very quickly. :P
If the only things you could wear on your feet were sandals. . . with socks.
For just a million. No not worth it.
If no matter what happened you had to be negative about it, in speech or life.
Nope.
If you had to have a musical instrument (inside its case) with you at all times. This instrument would randomly change every day. So one day you may carry around something small like a flute or violin; another, you may have a tuba, double bass, or piano.
Oh man no, can you imagine trying to lug around a tuba, piano, or organ all day? :D
If no matter what happened you had to act happy about it? Think about this one. ;)
Certainly not. Firstly, I believe in honesty; secondly, there are some things in life that should never appear to be approved of.
...if somebody came over to your house right now and burned it down? You and anything alive inside gets out safely, but all of the property (except for any fire-proof safes and their contents that you might have) is melted and/or burned to a crisp.
Give me a minute to put everything into a fireproof container then sure! ;D
If you were set on fire right now. You could put it out, but you would be set on fire.
You don't get any extra time or fireproof containers you don't already have.
If I was home, I might take you up on that, since the shower would be right there, but I'm at the barber's. I don't know that "Stop, drop and roll" helps when your whole body is on fire. I have to pass.
... if you were turned into a cat for a year?
Nope.
If you had to eat a can of cat food every day.
No
If you couldn't read anything for the rest of your life.
HECK NO!
If you couldn't watch TV for the rest of your life.
I would say yes except for the fact The Walking Dead exists?
(on a related note)If you had to face the zombie apocalypse alone.
ninja'd: Yes, in a second.
No.
...if you had to express support for Donald Trump? You could qualify or explain your statement, but only after the election is over.
No, I don't like lying.
If you had to start and finish all school assignments the day before they were due, including major projects that are supposed to take weeks/months/years.
I already come close to doing that, but I don't want to be forced into it -- there are some projects that are too big to do in that amount of time.
...if you had to kill at least one insect every day. If you kill one unintentionally or unknowingly, it doesn't count.
No.
If you could only wear socks and sandals together when you had to go somewhere.
yes
If you had to spend it on cats.
That would be a lot of cats.
If you couldn't eat chocolate anymore.
No!
If you had to live in poverty.
Spoiler
You'd be the wealthiest hobo ever :P
Considering what passes as poverty in America nowadays, sure. That's a workable budget.
If you had to grin every waking moment for a month straight.
No.
If it was in 1¢ coins, and was delivered to your house by trucks and dumped off at the front porch?
Heck no. 1¢ coins aren't used in Australia anymore, so they would be worthless.
If you had to chop off a finger for every 100,000 dollars you used.
No.
If you had to ride a horse to every single place you go.
No.
If you couldn't eat your favourite food again.
Nooooooo Mac'n'cheese for life!!!
If you were magicaly changed where you would hear through your nose and smell/breath through your ears
That'd be a little too odd for me, and it'd mean I couldn't use headphones either. I'll pass.
...if, for the next year, you turned invisible? Your clothes would turn invisible after you put them on, along with anything in their pockets, but items you're holding or carrying wouldn't.
For a billion, I would consider it, but a million dollars is far too low.
If you could only listen to your least favourite music genre for a year?
Take one for the team.
If you couldn't play a game involving technology (video game, computer, phone and tablet app) for the rest of your life.
If you mean any game involving technology? Such as certain board games, and things like the Forum Games and RPGs then no, I couldn't do it. But if you just mean video games, it would be totally worth it.
If your house, valuables, and everything you owned/lived in, burned down along with any pets you have at the time. The only thing you'd have is the clothes on your back, and a million dollars.
No.
If an annoying person were to follow you around, interrupting everything you say, for the next five years.
That depends on if this annoying person were an adult or a child. Honestly, I'd probably say no either way, but I'd give it a second's more thought if it was the latter.
If you had to do 1,000,000 push-ups over the next 15 years?
Hades yeah. Core strength.
If you could only spend a hundred of it on your hobby?
Why not? Money is money (that would kinda stink, though. Flutes and piccolos cost a fortune).
If every time you spent it, you experienced an injury of deep physical pain.
Ooooooh. Define "deep". I've been to a 7 on this scale (http://salonpas.us/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/painscale.jpg) for a day or two at a time before; if that's what you're talking about, then okay; I'd just not dig into the million except for big purchases. Anything more... I'd have to give it some thought.
If you had to go skydiving, bungee jumping, ride both the tallest and fastest rollercoasters in the world (which actually might be the same ride, I'm not sure), and eat a haberno pepper. All twice.
YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS! ;D
If you had no permanent home and had to move to a new place once a month.
No.
...if you always had debilitating anxiety whenever anything you were supposed to do had a deadline?
Ahahahahahahahaha, I already do. So you'd be giving it to me for free! ;D
....If you had to say out loud whatever you typed, ever.
I would have to get off my computer AND I would be rich. I'll take it.
... If you had to marry an ugly person forever. (And they stay ugly! - No loopholes :) )
Probably not. I don't care if they're ugly or beautiful - if they're not the right one, I won't marry them. They could be, but the chance is small given the number of people in the world.
....If you had to show your grandparents each new meme or trend that came out and try to explain it to them.
Heh... heheheh.... hehehahahehaw.... Heheheh! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Nope ;D
If you had Asperger's Syndrome (curious to see what people think about having it).
Already do; free money!
...if you had one extra nightmare a week?
I lifeguard a lot, and thus at night sometimes see people going underwater. The worst ones are when I see huge crowds in the pool, and in the dream I just can't keep an eye on all of them and one goes missing. So one more a week wouldn't hurt at all! :)
... If you had to kill someone to get it.
I'd need more than a million for that.
...If the only way to get the money was to be slapped in the face by a large trout. You would get one dollar for every slap, until eventually you had a million.
Nope, I would give up after two slaps
... if the only thing you could eat for a year was ice cream.
Nope, I'd get a major brain freeze and I would never be fully satisfied.
If you had to do the Ice Bucket Challenge every Wednesday for two years.
Sure.
@Mhera: 1,000,000,000 push-ups in 15 years is 182648.401826 push-ups a day. Have fun.
If you could only eat cheap frozen food for five years.
@Lord Ashenwyte: she said 1,000,000 not 1,000,000,000 so it is more like 1000 something a day
No because I am obsessed with Food and homemade non-allergenic thing I make at home, so doing that would completely defeat half the purpose.
If you had to live off of hot dogs from now on
Eww! No no no no no no.
If you bungee jumped off the highest building in the world
That sounds like fun! Yes!
If you couldn't leave your town... For the rest of your life.
NO.
If you had to sit in a Brazen Bull without the fire.
For how long? Sure.
If you had to either start college next year, or restart college if you have already started.
If I didn't have to pay for it. Who says I have to succeed?
If you had to either start college next year, or restart college if you have already started and get good grades?
For a million dollars? Absolutely.
...if you would be embarrassed in front of a national audience (think like the Super Bowl), in an event that would be remembered and talked about for many years to come, and merit its own Wikipedia entry.
Why not? I am not normally peeved by that kind of stuff
If you were forced to live in the wilderness with nothing but your clothes and an axe for 10 years
Not a chance.
...if your skin color turned emoticon yellow? This would be a genetic trait that any natural children you might have could inherit.
Hm, If it was for 1 Billion probably, But I dont know about a million...
...if your voice was Chipmunkized, for the rest of your life?
Isn't it already?
If you had to go into a room with three thousand scorpions for ten minutes.
Not worth it.
If you had to eat a cooked plate of insects of your choice before every meal.
How large a plate? I don't want to spoil my appetite by eating too much. ;)
Sure!
...if, for shoes, you could only wear boots, for the rest of your life?
Ffft, yeah, why not?
If you had to wrestle a chicken?
Yes! (Don't tell corn)
If you had to work as the President of the US for a week?
Absolutely.
...if you could never eat solid food again?
You mean I would have to eat stuff like soup and oatmeal? If so, no. That stuff is horrible.
If you had to die young?
It depends, how young and what would I be able to accomplish within the time period?
If you had to undergo your worst nonfatal fear once a day for 10 minutes, until a week was passed before claiming it.
Nah.
...if, whatever you did for the next year (whether a big decision, or something small, like what type of oatmeal to eat or what color shirt to wear) you would always seriously doubt whether it was the right decision?
That's me on a daily basis, but still no. That's just too much.
You had to give up drinking water and only drink soda.
No, couldn't fence very well with that! ;D
If you could only eat and drink real things, no artificial foods or ingredients. All food has to be completely natural.
Of course! :D
If you couldn't use technology for a month
Well, what kind of technology are we talking here? Just electronics? Things powered by electricity (including water heaters)? Plumbing?
If it's just electronic gadgets, I'd say yes, but for electricity, I'd have to think about that. No plumbing is a no-go.
... if you had to refer to and think of yourself exclusively in the third person for the rest of your life.
No.
If you had to live in Australia for the rest of your life. (I mean come on, who's going to accept this?! ;D ;D)
/me snatches the money.
If you had to spend the rest of your life with Delthion as a roommate.
A million isn't worth having any one person as a roommate for the rest of your life (unless you're both in love and are getting married, of course, but who really wants to put a price tag on that?).
If you couldn't drive a car for ten years. You can hitch-hike and get rides, but no driving yourself.
Already have. What's ten more?
...if you had to marry someone much older than you (say 20+ years) someday? It can be anybody you want (that's also willing to marry you), just so long as there's that age gap.
Why not? My parents are fifteen years apart and they're fine.
If you had to work every day at a job you don't like or need?
I guess is what they do, fine.
You have to dismiss years of study on some discipline?
Well, it depends on how many years. If it's one or two, I might think about it; if we're talking 5+, that's different.
If you could never see the color blue again?
Absolutely not.
If you couldn't play your favorite video game again?
I did it before, without getting paid.
Though I'm not sure which one it would be now; there's quite a few I like pretty evenly.
...if you had cold symptoms constantly for the next eight years? How bad they would be would fluctuate. The symptoms could be treated/mitigated with medication, but they would always be at least a little there.
Depends if the cold includes a sore throat then no, but if it's a stuffy nose and all that I could deal with it. But sore throats, don't think so.
If you had severe nacrolepsy (extreme daytime drowsiness), literally falling asleep everywhere?
Nah, I don't think so.
...if, instead of meat, you ate bugs? You could choose any bugs and any kind of prep that you want. Instead of having to pay an exorbitant amount for imports, you would be able to buy them for the market price in countries where bugs are commonly sold.
If you're a vegetarian, answer this challenge instead:
...if you could never eat anything green or containing green ingredients again?
Well they do say everything tastes like chicken... So I guess yes, I'd probably end up regretting it though. I love fried chicken, and bacon, and hamburgers...
...If you lost the use of your legs?
No, I don't think that'd be a good trade.
...if everything on both the old forum and the new forum was 100% beyond a shadow of a doubt lost forever, and everybody knew that you caused it to happen so you could get money?
No! No no no no no no no!
...if you were given the million dollars in quarters
Sure, it's still money. That'd be a hassle to take care of, but worth it ;D
If you couldn't use English, in any manner, for the next five years.
NO.
If you had to put mustard on all your food for the next year?
It doesn't have to be a lot, it just has to be there.
Sure.
If, for the next year, everyone in real life outside of your immediate family, teachers, and people who are being paid to perform a service for you (doctors, barbers, waiters, etc.) pretended you weren't there?
Well, my family's pretty much all I talk to anyway and when I go out I usually don't have to deal with these people anyway because the're automatically like "Oh look, a young'n!"
So, sure. :P
If you had a pet goldfish you had to keep alive for a year before getting the money.
For the goldfish dies, no money.
Sure.
If you were bald for the rest of your life.
I don't think I could.
If everyone else in the world became smarter than you. You would still be as smart as you are now; just, everyone else would be more so.
Bump.
Er... I already feel like that now :P
If you were forced to sit in a tarantula cage for an hour.
I seem to be developing arachnophobia,
If you had to reenact the whole song of "We Are Number One." in front of a unenthusiastic audience
What do you mean by "re-enact"?
A million dollars is a lot of money. I hope I could go through with it.
... if, from now on, whenever you tried to do a certain (randomly selected) thing that you liked, you would always fail, and also waste a lot of time trying to do it.
depends on how many times i'd do it...
If you could only speak in emojis... even in real life.
Nope.
If you had to go to every Justin Bieber concert.
Do I have to pay all the costs of getting to them?
If yes, then no.
If I don't have to pay, I'd take the money, show up, then immediately leave and sell my ticket to someone else and do something better.
Would you take a million dollars if you could never access the internet again? Would you do it for a billion?
Can I pay someone else to access it for me and tell me what's on it?
I probably couldn't bring myself to do it for a million, but at a billion I'd be inclined to pull the trigger.
...if you forgot your native language? It would be replaced by comparable knowledge of a random other language spoken by a significant group of people in the world (at least a full-fledged country, not tribal islanders or something). If you know one or more additional languages besides your native language, you would retain that knowledge.
Yeah I would. I could always hire a translator who can also re-teach me English.
... if you had to face your biggest fear? (as in, holding a tarantula if you're afraid of spider or giving a speech if you're afraid of public speaking)
No.
...if you could never listen to music again.
no.
If you had to walk on 10 meters of burning coals to get it.
Sure. I'd wear shoes. ;)
...if you could never use a shower again? Bathtubs are fine, but you can't use the showerhead.
Bump.
I hate showers, but baths are gross. Could I just not bathe at all and wash my hair in the sink? *takes the money*
Million dollars, but you have to sleep on a park bench for the rest of your life.
No.
...if for shoes you always had to wear roller blades? (With one exception -- you can wear ice skates on ice.)

I'd consider it, but only now while my headphones are still working (so I can give them up in advance). Eating a set of headphones would probably make me very sick. A million dollars is a lot of money, but I'm not sure it's worth that kind of risk.
If you lost the ability to have romantic relationships and feelings, for the rest of your life? (You could still like or love people, but they would all be permanently friend-zoned to you, and you would never desire anything more.)
Sounds like a benefit to me!
Already don't. Ahahah. Trust me, it is!

MDB you have to live on your own in the Everglades for the rest of your life while never coming into contact with humans.
No

MDB you have to write essays on taxonomy for the rest of your life as your full-time employment. You are not allowed to quit this job or have any other during your lifetime. The essays must be at least 4 pages in length. ;D

MDB you have to move to a country whose language you don't speak
Definitely.
MDB you have to choose one thing to which you must devote 80% of your time, the other 20% will be taken up by eating and sleeping.

That is a tough one... I don't think the money is worth it, I love fruit too much.
MDB from now on you are never allowed to watch any movies or TV shows you haven't seen, only re-watching is allowed.
I'd be good with that I think.
MDB you must eat the same species as whatever your pet is, you needn't eat your actual pet, but said pet is a dog, then you would need to eat a random dog.
I don't have a pet. So that means I would have to eat nothing, in which case I get a million dollars free. Sounds like a good deal to me.
MDB every night when you sleep you are watched by someone sitting in a chair in your room. They aren't going to do anything but watch you as you sleep, but they're there, and you know they are.
I guess...
MDB you have to lose one of your ears.
Nah. My little sister is going to be a billionaire and we're going to run a commune together so money isn't really worth that much.
MDB you have to feed and take care of two thousand ducks for a year.
No. That might cost a lot anyway, so I wouldn't be left with much money, or time.
MDB you have to listen to somebody singing the demon pox song all day.
no?? I don't know that song...
MDB You can only live underground
Demon pox, oh demon pox,
Just how is it acquired?

Demon pox, oh demon pox,

MDB you're blind and deaf.
No.
MDB you have to watch the teletubbies for 1,000,000 hours.
No...
MDB you can never get married.
Hmm... possibly. A million dollars would allow me to adopt children and I can open jars by bashing the lids on the side of the bench... It would be fairly difficult to take care of children without a husband but I do have a couple of sisters so...ye-ah, nah. My little sister is still going to be a billionaire.
MDB you don't have any siblings and any ones you do have die tragic deaths.
I'd think about it...

MDB you can never receive another kind of income for the rest of your life.

MDB you can only ever wear black.
Done. Where's my money?
Million Dollars but someone follows you whenever you leave your domicile.
Nope.
MDB you are never allowed to leave the town/city you currently live in.
No.
MDB you always have to be wearing long pants and long sleeves and they have to be black.
By pants you mean trousers, I'm guessing? If so, that's fine by me. I'm in Britain, where it's cold (but doesn't snow) and wet.
MDB you are never allowed to use a phone. A computer, yes, but never a phone.
hmmm... I'm 50/50 on this one.
MDB someone dies.
So I get a million dollars, and somebody who is going to die anyway a second later dies? Sounds fine to me. As long as it's somebody who will die anyway within a week, I will take the million dollars.
MDB you have to give $1,000,100 to charity.
Since I wasn't given a time-frame, sure. I'll put it into a safe stock that gradually rises, and include in my will to give it and one-hundred dollars more to charity.
You get a million dollars, but you have to move to a different country entirely.
No. I love Australia. Though New Zealand is an option...

No.
MDB you are never allowed to read a book again.
Absolutely not!
MDB the only songs you can ever listen to are from Frozen.
I could use my million dollars to remake Frozen, but with all my favourite songs. Besides, I don't listen to music much anyway. So yes.
MDB you can't watch any films or anything on TV.
Hmmm... yes. Books are so much better.
MDB you can only read books aloud.
Ooh! That would be annoying, but yes.
MDB you have to spend a week at the North Pole first.

MDB you have to give up writing.
Heck no.
MDB you can't drive or pilot any vehicle.

MDB you have to give up fictional writing. (you can still do journalism, et cetera)
Quote from: shisteer of nothing much on November 12, 2019, 08:57:42 PM
Hmmm... yes. Books are so much better.
I know, who would ever want movies or TV when there are books?
But I refuse to give up writing, not even for a million dollars.
MDB you have to go to school for five more years (if you are currently at school, then it's five extra years on top of the amount you still have left).
Hmmm... my school is at home so yes. (If I had to go to proper school, no)

MDB you have to become a butcher.
I already am. >:D >:D >:D
MDB day no longer exists.
Done.
You get a million dollars, but you can never use abbreviations.
Totes!
MDB you can never use a laptop. (But you can use a phone)
........Yes. I'll get a desktop.
You get a million dollars but you must communicate via letters. (You can still use the forums, and talk to people face to face.)
Hmm... No.
MDB you can never read a book again.
Absolutely not!
MDB you lose your thumbs.
No. That would make so many things a lot harder. Playing violin, for example.
MDB you have to listen to a drummer who doesn't know the meaning of anything quieter than fortissimo all day for the rest of your life.
No.
You would get a million dollars, but you have to listen to a violinist who is intentionally out of tune.
Yes. Easy enough, I just play a short piece, intentionally out of tune, and as you didn't specify how long it would be for, that will (why does it keep giving will a capital letter?) be fine.

I've decided you can have your million dollars.
Thanks!
MDB you have to write two thousand words a day for a year and, if you don't, certain doom will follow.
I mean, it would motivate me to write. But chances are there would be one day that I was unable to write. So no.
MDB you are never allowed to read the last chapter of a book.
Sure. I'll just get somebody in my family to read it to me aloud, or I'll find it on YouTube.

No. 1p coins are only legal tender up to twenty of them.
MDB you have to watch all the episodes of the TV programme that wrote the book that I got that fact from.
Nah.
MDB you will never again get a shiny coin.
But I get a million dollars and can still get notes and coins that aren't shiny, so that's a good deal for me.
MDB you have to leave it in a bank until you die and can't use any of it.
Yes. I'd put it in a trust or something for my sisters.
