Would you rather?

Do you mean: What age would you rather your antiques be? Old.

Would you rather people keep coming up to you and asking a question you don't know the answer to, or that you can't explain the answer to.

I mean, the first one keeps happening and I'm dealing quite well with it...

Be able to stay in bed forever without any consequences, or never feel tired or have to sleep?

If literally no consequences - including that the ageing process stops while I'm in bed - then the former, immortalise sounds nice. If just no social consequences, then the latter.

Would you rather get all your choices from "Would you rather" come true, or the ability to conjure up any noun you've ever played in Word Association? :)
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

Caradìlis

(Wow, really? Immortality?)

The noun, cause I'm pretty sure that so far  I have mentioned dragons a couple of times... :)

Would you rather be allergic to sunlight or never be able to hug a cat ever again?

Jubal

(I wasn't being serious - I think I'm feeling overly fretful about mortality recently for a variety of reasons and overcompensating!)

That's difficult, but probably the cat thing, since other fluffles exist and becoming a ferret aficionado seems less of a problem than becoming wholly nocturnal...
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

Tusky

I would rather choose the absence of a question, since the other absence of a question might be considered to be nothingness - which as we have learned from the never ending story can be very dangerous

Would you rather be called Mary and have a small lamb with white fur follow you everywhere so insistently that you kept tripping over it or a relentlessly altruistic sheep with black fur that was constantly forcing your parents and neighbours to accept a bag filled with it's wool?

I have a soft spot for black sheep (being one myself), so I'll go with that...

Fox or tortoise?

Eff oh ex.

Hound or turtle?

Tusky

Turtle!

Spades or Pick axes

Spade, blunt force trauma makes for less of a mess than a pickaxe...

Painful truth or beautiful lie?

comrade_general

Painful truth.

Would you rather be the best player on a losing team or the worst player on a winning team?

Caradìlis

The real question is "what team is it?", because if it's anythinh like the ones I'm in atm, it doesn't matter who's best, who's worst and whether or not we're winning. What matters is the team, being a team. :)

Ignorance or bliss?
"Those who don't beieve in magic will never find it." - Roald Dahl

Jubal

Um, bliss, bliss sounds quite nice and I can't see much upside to ignorance?

Wolverines or Hog Badgers?

Caradìlis

Wolverine! I love the X-Men... ;D

X-Men or Avengers?
"Those who don't beieve in magic will never find it." - Roald Dahl

Jubal

Uh... X Men? I guess? I honestly don't know enough about either superhero team, but the X-Men seem pretty cool, and more like they have actual team dynamics/plots which I like whereas the Avengers are more "let's stick a bunch of separate superheroes together because that sounds cool".

A hero team mashup of fantasy heroes: Gandalf, Arya Stark, Kvothe, Archmage Ged, and Puddleglum
Or one of sci-fi heroes: the 13th Doctor, Captain Picard, Luke Skywalker, River Tam, and Marvin
