Would you rather

[Sour Masher]

I think these are fun, so I wanted to start a would you rather thread. We can answer existing ones and/or also add new ones we can respond to. I'll start us off.

Would you rather live 10 more years in your peak physical and mental condition with assurances that you will not get ill or deteriorate in any way during those 10 years (so 10 years at whatever age you consider your very best) or 30 more years aging naturally from the point you are at now, with all the natural risks of disease and deterioration?

Since my kids are only 6 1/2 and almost 4, I would take the 30 years. Even getting 10 more years at peak physical and mental condition would only have them as teenagers. So, that's kind of a no-brainer for me.

Would you rather fight ten duck-sized horses or one horse-sized duck?

No, I would not.

Same for me.

Yup, same for me (5/7 instead of 4/6)

Mine are 2 and almost 5, so same for me. B8t i f8gured some older folks here might choose illness free youth.

It depends if I am in my peak physical condition or the condition I am in now

Don't you mean beak condition?!

Taking this very serious matter on its face, it is not even close. I can take down 10 duck sized horses, but I do not want to run afowl of a horse sized duck.

True, The drake is great.

Wait, what kind of fowl? https://www.iflscience.com/plants-an...ved-described/

It seems like you are ducking an important issue here, which quacks me up.

Can I get my peak physical and mental condition from separate time periods? Because I would love to have my body from 20 years ago, but man was I a fool back then.

Honestly, I'd take 30 years, come what may. I want to see my children grow up and see them have families, even if I can't contribute as much directly to the world.

Wow, definitely 30 more years with natural aging, and even that doesn't get me to 80, so I'm hoping to shoot past that. Being there to love, support and enjoy my kids and someday grandkids is priority #1.

Probably ten duck-sized horses.

Right?!?! Can I get 10 years of when I was 20, or do I just have 10 more years of this shit?!?!

Oh, and I'll take the 10 duck sized horses... Ducks are nasty fucks as it is, I'm not taking on a horse sized one. I think I could punt most of the little ones.
