Would you rather?

[Jubal]

I'll take the limestone fungus, at least it doesn't want my brain.

Would you rather employ the BRAIN MOLES as couriers or as accountants?

[The Seamstress]

Accountants. If they'd be couriers, they'd eat* the brains of everyone they meet? Probably? So keeping them in an office somewhere would be the safer option.

(*Do they eat people's brains? Or people's BRAIN WORMS? Eww. What do they do? Do I actually want to know?)

Would you rather be a care-free blob of candyfloss or a care-less blob of pasta carbonara?

[Jubal]

I think I'm just not a very candyfloss person, I'd be uncomfortable being that sugary. So I'll go carbonara.

Would you rather have three days where you're not allowed to lie down (you can sit but not lie on your side/back) or three days where you're not allowed to get out of bed?

[The Seamstress]

I think I'll stay in bed.

Would you rather jump into a huge pile of snow or into a huge pile of leaves?

[Jubal]

Hm, leaves I think

Would you rather marmalade or nutella?

[The Seamstress]

I'd be fine with either, but at the moment I'm in nutella mood.

Would you rather be the first human to try some newly discovered kind of tea or the first human to try some dubious new concoction of pastry?

[Jubal]

Given the tea is not dubious I'll go for that

Would you rather befriend a very large cockroach or a very large stink bug?

[The Seamstress]

Oh my gosh, neither? Or maybe the stink bug? If they leave my food alone, that is.

Would you rather be responsible for keeping a single snowflake from thawing, or for keeping glass Christmas tree baubles from breaking in a room with 45 cats?

[Jubal]

I think I can deal with the snowflake as long as nobody minds me just putting it in the freezer. It might end up with too much ice to still count as a snowflake, but it won't thaw!

Would you rather a president with poor spelling skills accidentally declared marital law instead of martial law, or accidentally passed a budgie instead of a budget?

[The Seamstress]

Okay, I got a plan, hear me out: If the budgie is trained to steal money from the rich and drop it everywhere it is needed more (fairly), it could set an example for lots of other budgies to be trained, thus starting a social revolution and large-scale redistribution of wealth. Ultimately this would, of course, lead to a state of utopia, with the budgies being revered as saviours of humanity.

Would you rather be a budgie trainer in this coming utopia or a tour guide in the Museum of Budgie Revolution?

[Jubal]

Tour guide!

Would you rather a chevron or fleur-de-lys as the core of a coat of arms?

[The Seamstress]

Fleur-de-lys I think, looks a little fancier than a chevron.

Would you rather be a pigeon or a seagull?

[Jubal]

Seagull. I've seen a seagull literally murder a pigeon in front of a group of horrified tourists in Venice: I'll put myself a step higher up the food chain I think!

Would you rather lace or velvet?

[The Seamstress]

Ideally, both. But I'll say lace wins this round. It's quite versatile. And velvet produces an annoying amount of fuzzy lint while cutting & sewing.

Would you rather tweed or tartan?

[Jubal]

Tartan!

Would you rather Klimt or Hundertwasser?
