Game Would You Rather? 🎃 [In Honor Of Nurse Ratched]

[SoCalShordie]

1. Would you rather live in a world where nobody ever offered you your substance of choice again OR a world where it was everywhere, and saying "no" was 100% up to your daily willpower?

2. Would you prefer instant emotional healing but forget your resilience OR continue healing gradually while gaining wisdom?

3. Would you rather have everyone in your life know every single detail of your lowest rock-bottom moment OR never be able to talk about your past with anyone again?

4. Would you rather always know exactly what is going to happen next but lose the ability to be pleasantly surprised OR live with uncertainty but have total confidence in your ability to handle whatever comes?

5. If you could view a complete, objective data visualization of your entire life's impact on others, would you want to see it?

6. If you could strip away your name, your past, your occupation, and your relationships, what is the core element that remains?

7. Do you think we are drawn to specific people because of who they are, or because of the version of ourselves we become when we are around them?

8. If you could know the absolute, objective answer to one cosmic mystery (e.g. the origin of the universe, what happens after death) but you could never share that knowledge with another living soul, would you want to know?

9. Do you feel like you are running toward the person you want to become OR running away from the person you used to be?

10. If you could experience one day through the exact consciousness of someone who views the world in the complete opposite way that you do, would you take the offer, knowing it might permanently shatter your current belief system?

3. Have everyone know the details of my lowest rock bottom moment

8. No.

9. Running away from the person I used to be.

Excellent questions, Shordie. I’ll ruminate and return

1. Would you rather live in a world where nobody ever offered you your substance of choice again OR a world where it was everywhere, and saying "no" was 100% up to your daily willpower?

I believe in legalisation (with strict regulation) of all drugs so willpower it is for me!

2. Would you prefer instant emotional healing but forget your resilience OR continue healing gradually while gaining wisdom?

Oh definitely the latter. Instant healing would’ve saved me soooo many problems, but I’d never have the pleasure of gradually growing and gaining insight on my past experiences and actions.

3. Would you rather have everyone in your life know every single detail of your lowest rock-bottom moment OR never be able to talk about your past with anyone again?

Trickier one, but I think I’d go with letting it all hang out. I’ve been very open about the fukked up shit I’ve done over the years and honestly feel being able to talk through certain events is of great healing benefit.

4. Would you rather always know exactly what is going to happen next but lose the ability to be pleasantly surprised OR live with uncertainty but have total confidence in your ability to handle whatever comes?

Oh definitely the latter. Surprises can definitely be a mixed bag, but uncertainty is an intrinsic aspect of the human condition imo.

5. If you could view a complete, objective data visualization of your entire life's impact on others, would you want to see it?

I wouldn’t. There would be far too many cases of ne negatively impacting others with little or no chance of making meaningful reparations. Too depressing with little upside imo.

6. If you could strip away your name, your past, your occupation, and your relationships, what is the core element that remains?

A curious chap. Curious in both senses of the world. Surprisingly content to observe and just be.

7. Do you think we are drawn to specific people because of who they are, or because of the version of ourselves we become when we are around them?

Little from column a, little from column b ime. Initially I’d say it’s all about them, but as the relationship deepens it becomes obvious we become better versions of ourselves when around the right people.

8. If you could know the absolute, objective answer to one cosmic mystery (e.g. the origin of the universe, what happens after death) but you could never share that knowledge with another living soul, would you want to know?

Absolutely. Having no realistic chance of ever knowing why existence exists is maddening to me. I JUST WANT TO KNOW DAMMIT!!’

9. Do you feel like you are running toward the person you want to become OR running away from the person you used to be?

The latter. I was a broken, bitter and honestly deeply unpleasant individual until I finally started getting my shit together. I have no idea where I’m headed, but it has to be better than where I started.

10. If you could experience one day through the exact consciousness of someone who views the world in the complete opposite way that you do, would you take the offer, knowing it might permanently shatter your current belief system?

100% - I’d absolutely jump at the chance. I don’t think it would do much to change my belief system, but it would certainly help greatly with empathising with those antipodal to me in their beliefs.

Great questions!!!
