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
Dreams, dreams are untapped and writhing. How much more real are dreams than that paltry existence which we now call reality? How shall we ascend to that which humanity is destined? By mastering the dreamworld of course. That is how, my pupils, that is how.

Gonff the Mousethief

You know, I'd pass.


If you forgot all memories (Except stuff you learned and basic things like walking).
I want the world of Tolkien,
The message of Lewis;
The adventure of Jacques,
And the heart of Milne.
But I want the originality of me.



Delthion

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.

Delthion

Maybe not...

If you had to sleep curled up lengthwise in an air-duct for one night, without moving.

James Gryphon

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.
"The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater." ~J.R.R. Tolkien

James Gryphon

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.)

Søren

Considering I'm not Oliver Queen-ripped, then no.
You had to leave the forum and never return?


I'm retired from the forum

James Gryphon

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.

James Gryphon

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.
