Hm, I think the fresh spring water. At least I can't think of anything to use a large amount of salt water for, except maybe fill a pool and pretend it's the sea?

Would you rather have the ability to change your voice to megaphone-volume at will, or to perfectly imitate any voice or sound?

Making large amounts of concrete? Being like that Dwarf from Klagenfurt and vengefully flooding the homes of the sinful? Making a salllamaer ocean on Mars just because you can? Driving around in a constantly waterwheel powered vehicle? Various options :)

Ooh, both of those are useful, but I think perfect imitation is too good to pass up. Especially as I can do other sounds: I could do multitrack instrumentals for my songs just by singing the violin lines or whatever, that'd be amazing! And I could voice-act a whole cast for something if I wanted to which would solve a bunch of issues.

Would you rather red shift or blue shift?

The Seamstress

Okay I can see it now.  :)  Waterwheel power wouldn't be that bad actually!


Red shift? Just because I like red shades of colour a little more than blue...

A great-great-great-uncle you never knew makes you his heir surprisingly, but you have to choose one of the following, the other goes to animal welfare: Accept the mysterious 400 years old mansion in a remote forest area, or the locked storage unit which hadn't been opened in decades so no one knows what's in there?

Jubal

I think I go for the mansion? Higher guaranteed value, and when else am I going to get on the property ladder?

Would you rather have to wear an eyepatch at least three days a week despite not needing one, or have slightly poorer eyesight requiring thick glasses but be able to use both eyes?

The Seamstress

I already wear glasses 99% of the time, so I wouldn't mind the slightly poorer eyesight, I guess. The patch would probably be more irritating.

Cold pizza at midnight or cold pizza for breakfast?

Jubal

Ooft, difficult and probably depends on timings of alcohol consumption, which I think I just assume is involved if I'm making cold pizza choices of this kind. I guess breakfast hangover cold pizza somehow feels better in my head, I don't know.

Graptolites or belemnites?

The Seamstress

So I googled pictures and... eww, I'd rather not. But the thread demands an answer, so: belemnites. They look less creepy.

Hang out with a troll or with a goat?

Jubal

A troll, in that if I want to hang out with goats that's more likely to happen some other time. Unless it's like an internet troll in which case I pick the goat.

Water purifier or air purifier?

The Seamstress

Luckily we have good quality tap water here, so the air purifier. Air purifiers everywhere! (If only.)

Brown bread or bread rolls?

Jubal

Bread rolls

Guitar string or silly string?

The Seamstress

Silly string is that foamy stuff from a spraying can, right? Well, nope. I hated those even as a kid. So the guitar string it is.

Mint or fruit bubble gum?

Jubal

Ew, neither, bubble gum makes me feel profoundly ill, though mint if I'm forced to choose.

Ham or salami?

The Seamstress

Depends on the type, but generally, salami.

Thunderstorm or blizzard?

Jubal

Blizzard. Snow day potential afterwards!

Mug or teacup?
