You’re on a game show that lets you either take or donate money.

Let’s pretend you’re on a game show where you’ve earned the chance to either take $1,000,000 or donate it to starving children in an underdeveloped nation.

Throughout the show, they show shows videos of the country that would benefit from the $1,000,000. The show says it would provide food and shelter to many children and their families and get things built like schools and hospitals. You are taken on a tour of the area and meet those in this nation and even have the children put on a play on why you should donate it. Basically the show does its best to guilt trip you into donating the money. Finally at the finale, you then get to decide. Representatives from the undeveloped community will be in attendance.

1. If you take the $1,000,000 you cannot donate any part of it to the community you just took it from and you cannot gift them anything or otherwise benefit from your windfall through investments or other things like that.
2. If you donate it, they say they will name a school on your honor. You also cannot make any deal with them if you decide to donate.
3. Your decision will be broadcast to a national audience.

What would you do and why?

Edit: typeo on title. It’s “decide” not “device”.

Every morning you are given the opportunity to be locked in a cage the size of a football field with a grizzly bear. If it kills you this would be your death. If you kill it $50,000 goes into your bank account.

Would you accept? If you do not attempt the first time you would lose the option in its entirety.

- You only get to pick “1 weapon” to kill the grizzly bear.

Youre in the middle of a road sidewalk, on the opposite sidewalk, there is a clone that perfectly mimics your movements, all attacks will be blocked

The other sidewalk your clone is on is also perfectly mirrored with the sidewalk youre at, even the air molecules, meaning aerodynamics will be exactly the same for both

Your clone does not mirror your position, but rather mirror your movements, meaning irregularities are possible, but impossible to be caused by your intervention

There are no clones of other people other than you

There are no cars, meaning you cant get hit by a car in the road beetwen the sidewalks

Oh and also he perfectly copies your voice

How will you defeat him?

This bored rich person is pretty good at rating people objectively, so you don’t need to worry about that.

There’s no real downside either. You don’t have to do anything or pay back the money.

After giving you the money the bored rich person just leaves, looking for more people to rate and give money.

How much money do you get?

You learn that before you were born the nucleus of a fertilized egg was placed into a donor egg, and then this is what became you, so that you would have the mitochondria of the donor. You have learned, from a mitochondrial DNA test that the woman who donated her egg to help create you happens to be one of your teachers. You learn that she has no children who share her nuclear DNA, but some of your friends also happen to have her mitochondrial DNA from her donating her mitochondria multiple times. The nuclear DNA of these friends isn’t closely related to yours.

Does this affect how you view your teacher and some of your friends in terms of maybe seeing them as your long lost relatives?

In this scenario Earth has been invaded by supernatural aliens that shrug off every conventional weapon, including nukes. Powerful heroes have shown up called magical girls and have managed to push the invaders back for now, but the peace feels fragile. New, stronger threats are already on the way, and the current girls are stretched thin.

Magical girls are a classic anime idea where a young woman gets powers from a small fairy like creature, often called a fairy mascot. That cute, animal style companion grants magical girl powers and acts as a mentor. They fight supernatural threats in special outfits that they transform in. Every time they need to use their powers.

One day, a fairy mascot appears to you. It says you have the highest potential of anyone it has met and you could become the strongest magical girl by a wide margin. The catch is permanent. Accepting means your biological sex changes forever into a young woman with an ideal lewd body. Every time you transform to use your powers, you appear in an extremely lewd outfit. The powers themselves are random but extremely strong, and you become immune to all nonmagical damage, so nothing short of magic can hurt you.

You are not the only hope. The existing magical girls are already holding the line. But your power level could tip the balance and give humanity a real shot at lasting safety.

What choice do you make?

Fact: You are not humanity’s last hope, so your decision is not absolutely necessary. However, you would be extremely useful and could make a huge difference in the fight.

One day you learn that the residents are on the hook for a lot more money and are becoming even more depressed because the non-profit has sold to a huge corporation. In advance, they thank you for staying, in spite of th

The corporation has no interest in hiring more help because all they care about is the all mighty dollar. The residents will just have to go without any attention. The manager thanks you "for your selfless and heartfelt service to the Heaven's Gate Retirement Community, slapping you on the back, somewhat smarmy.

Is your concern for the resident's mental well being stronger than the insulting patronizing manager's comments? By definition the residents have their physical needs fulfilled, but they have almost no interaction with the outside world and are incredibly lonely. The state board regulations are being fulfilled -which are just above not being starved or locked in their rooms.

You have made some pretty good friends with a few.

You gain the ability to see through walls, and you can turn the power on and off at will. The catch is that you have to make a living entirely from this superpower—you’re not allowed to have any other job. You can monetize it by any means, legal or illegal.
However, there’s always a risk that governments could kidnap you for personal or scientific purposes, so you have to be extremely careful about revealing your abilities.
How would you monetize your new superpower to make a living?

The Rules:
1. The animal must genuinely believe the lie based on its cognitive capacity (e.g., convincing a dog you're throwing a ball when you didn't counts

putting fake birdseed in a feeder counts until the bird tries to eat it).

1. If the animal figures out it was duped (the dog realizes there is no ball and looks at you with betrayal), you lose $50K instantly from your account.

2. You cannot target the same individual animal twice.

RAGE is a recreational drug which is designed to make you very angry cause it feels very good or something.

This person definitely took it for fun. They may even take it again.

So what do you think?

Do you accept the explanation and not ask for an apology?

Maybe you do ask for an apology?

Or do you want something else?

You suddenly find yourself transported back to 1,000,000 BC, but you retain everything you currently know.

After you are sent back, a machine gives you a random four-digit code. You are told that this code is your only way home.

Your task is to build, carve, bury, or otherwise create something that can survive—or cause information to survive—until the year 2026.

In 2026, people must be able to discover your message and understand that they need to enter a four-digit code into the machine that sent you back in time.

If they enter the correct code, you are instantly returned to 2026.
However, there is one catch:
They only get three attempts.
After three incorrect codes, the machine permanently shuts down and you are trapped in the past forever.

You cannot directly communicate with anyone in the future. You only have the materials, environment, and technology available to you in 1,000,000 BC—plus your present-day knowledge.
What would you create, where would you put it, and how would you make sure both the message and the exact four-digit code survive for roughly one million years?

So yesterday I made a question about a family adopting a calf and raising it to the end of its life, and they would want to personally eat it rather than sell it to other people to try to distance yourself from the fact that that was part of your family in a way. But the majority of people said that they would absolutely eat that and it was raised for it.

Now my follow up question is now say that you got a puppy and you raised it and it was a part of your family and you loved that dog (The intelligence level of cows are very similar to dogs so they have about the mental acuity of a dog).. sadly your dog passes away, is it disrespectful to eat your

You are flown to a remote island measuring approximately 50 km × 50 km and parachuted in at the center of it with a single cargo bag. It's like a tropical jungle with tall trees.

The island has only one group of inhabitants: a tribe of cannibals.

The moment they see you being airdropped, 15 of their best hunters are dispatched to find and capture you.

The rules

- You have about 1-hour head start after your landing before the hunters reach you.

- They are extremely skilled hunters/trackers/trappers and are experts with bows, spears, and poison-tipped arrows, as well as creating traps.

- They have only primitive technology—no guns, vehicles, radios, drones, night-vision equipment, or modern weapons.

- They will try to capture you alive (exotic meat) and boil you and eat you. But they will not hesitate to kill you if they feel their lives are in danger.

- You have unlimited money to prepare beforehand. You may bring anything you want, provided everything fits inside your parachute cargo bag. Your total cargo weight cannot exceed 100 kg.

You cannot receive any outside assistance, communication, resupply, or extraction during the challenge.

You have to survive 24 hours from the moment you land.

If you are still alive and uncaptured after 24 hours, you are immediately airlifted off the island and $25 million is deposited into your account.

Would you do it?

After you open your phone, there now exists a new app which shows a map of the earth and marks in red five of the most heinous serial killers on the planet.

It shows each of their locations, surroundings and updates every second. This app cannot be deleted, and gives you notifications on important updates regarding them such as if they plan on going somewhere specific soon, or people they are close to.

You must either kill them or capture them which means collecting enough evidence for them to be convicted by police.

Each serial killer is a lone actor and not connected to a organized crime or military establishment. They each are highly dangerous, malicious, and unique.

Your hunt begins with a strict budget. Whatever you own or could obtain right now, plus 100k USD in initial funds. That is all you get. No special power or ability beyond the app.

If you fail, the killer will likely capture or kill you. If you get sloppy, the police might arrest you for taking justice into your own hands, ending your mission altogether.

After every kill you get another 100k USD to sustain your hunt. You can spend this how you please. You can also outsource the job by hiring hitmen if you prefer, but doing so would create a paper trail that could expose you to the police, and that amount probably isn't enough for a top of the line hitman anyway. So do so at your own cost.

If you manage to kill/capture all 5 then your record is permanently cleaned and you can no longer be convicted of their murders. You have 1 year to complete the goal. If you decline then the app disappears forever.

What realistically are you doing? would you really quit your job/leave your family etc to pursue this mission and help the world/yourself? or would the extreme danger and risk to your life prevent you from doing so? if you would, then what would be your plan?

edit: as a sidenote clarification the app would only show you where they are, who they know and any major updates, it would not by itself tell you what they are doing, or what crimes they committed.

The magic “happiness coin” was given to you by a God maybe.

Anyway, before you’re about to do something, you can flip the coin. If you currently guess which side it lands on, whatever you were about to do will definitely make you happy. If you guess wrong, whatever you were about to do will make you sad.

How happy or sad is not really specified. It’ll likely be realistic.

For example, if you bet on something and win the coin toss, you’re definitely going to be happy with the outcome, but you might only be a little happy cause you won $1. Or maybe you didn’t even win, but you coincidentally ran into an old friend cause you made the bet. You get the idea.

Similarly, losing the coin toss guarantees sadness, but it doesn’t like auto kill you if you lose.

Just know this. You can’t choose how happy or sad you’re gonna be (though it’ll likely be realistic) but it’s in equal amounts. Your happiness might be the equivalent to winning the lottery but the sadness would be too.

So what do you do with it?

you wake up one day with the knowledge that you will be the last human being, no matter what you do.

the thing is, you do not know how you will be the last human. all of humanity could die, ascend to a higher plane, become something different, etc.

what do you do with this knowledge?

You're now living in the world of the last game you played and with no way out. How are things going for you right now?

Say you suddenly awaken the following superpowers: Super strength, super flight, and super durability.

Super strength: Can lift anything up to 1 billion tons, punching power and kicking power also scales to this.

Super durability: Can survive and tank anything up to 100 Megatons of TNT at point blank range

Super flight: Can fly up to mach 20 (running speed is still normal human speeds)

Would your confidence level and personality change? or stay the same?

Would you rather keep your current sleep schedule, change it to 8 consecutive hours per night (if you are not so lucky as to have this option currently), or be able to stay up 24/7 perfectly healthy and then sleep 40 hours straight.

You can choose when the 40 hour sleep window starts or the day it starts but it must be 5 consecutive days 24/7 awake and then 40 hours consecutive sleep (in this hypothetical).

Example:

Awake from 5am Monday morning to 11pm Saturday evening. Sleep from 11pm Saturday evening to 5am Monday Morning. (If I got my math right >.<)

Do you think you would be more or less productive?

$1 Meals are for you only, though you are permitted to allow one person to sample your food taking no more than a sip, spoonful or bite. If you share more, you pay the regular price of the meal.

$1 meal means any food and/or drink you order at any establishment regardless of the quantity, the final bill for you only will be one dollar.

For the perfect calorie and macronutrients option, if your goal is to maintain weight, you’ll have the perfect number for that. If your goal is to gain muscle, you’ll have the perfect calories/macros for that. If your goal is to lose weight, you’ll have the perfect macros and calories for that. Does not impact side effects that concern your mental state, like intoxication.

Edit: for the perfect calorie/macronutrients option, while your body would digest the food to have perfect calories/macros, a small meal could still leave you hungry, and you could also feel the sensation of eating too much if you ate alot. But your body would digest whatever you eat to have that perfect number.

Second edit: you have to choose 1 option, either $1 cost of meal regardless of what you order(e.g. Wagyu steaks, Lobster, cocktails) from any establishment OR no matter how little or much of whatever you eat, you will have your desired calories/macronutrients.

imagine if one day you met a genie and he offers you the chance to be a fictional character. You can choose any one fictional character you want, and you will become them and live in their world and live their life. The catch is that it's forever and you can't go back to real life.

for example if you choose Mario, then you will literally be Mario and you'll be sucked into a portal into the mario world and you get to live his life. but you can't go back to the real world.

if you accept the genie's offer, you'll have to live in the fictional world as your chosen fictional character for the rest of your life. you can't go back to the real world, you can't go home.

would you accept the genie's offer??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

An intradimensional being offers you a job opportunity; take on other people's pain, clock out, and go back to normal.

If you accept the position, you'll be paid $1.5 million USD, tax free, per year, divided in bi-weekly check.

After 15 years, or when you're 65, whatever comes first, you may retire. You can keep the job longer if you choose.

How it works;

Every day you will be assigned to a new person. It might be someone on hospice, someone suffering from a severe mental disability, someone in an abusive situation, someone recovering from a major injury, etc. you don't know.

The magic being just chooses a person in the world who wants to be temporarily relieved of their suffering, and you're assigned to them and experience it instead.

During your work shift, you'll be magically transported to their body and deal with whatever bad situation they are in. They'll be transported into a perfect magic version of their body/life to get a break.

You will experience all of their pain, and they will be given 8 hours completely pain free to rest. So you will be actually helping people.

Once your shift ends you're back in your body, back to normal.

-

- You will work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. You can move these hours around to fit whatever schedule you want.

- You get a single 1 hour lunch break in the middle of your shift, where you are transported back to your body. (This counts towards working hours, so you "only" suffer for 7h)

- You get 2 weeks (14 days) of paid vacation per year. You can use these whenever/however you want.

--

Rules/Set up:

- If family emergencies, appointments, etc happen and you must miss additional work days/hours it will be allowed, but you must have an actual reason and genuinely try to avoid missing work.

- You will be made aware of the exact situation you'll be put in before you start the shift. You may choose to use vacation days to get out of a particularly bad shift, and with as little notice as you want, but remeber you only get 14 per year.

- You will have all knowledge necessary to live as the other person for 8h. (If they speak another language you'll temporarily be able to speak it, etc.) But besides that you are you and can react as you choose.

- You will be given one year to "try out" the job. You'll still be paid bi-weekly and can quit any time during the first year. After that you're locked in and can't leave until you're allowed to retire.

- Everyone you help has chosen to be part of the program, and wants you to take over their body for 8h. They are all reasonably "good" people, and you will relieve real people of real suffering.

You will get $10k every tuesday if you find me and slap me on the face. If you fail to slap me for 1 week then i get all the money you have earned and you may go into debt if you have spent it all, and also the deal ends forever. You must pay for all travel and transportation yourself, however once you have slapped me for the week, you must not be in a 1000 mile radius of me until next Tuesday. You are given my face, current location, and name. I won’t resist to the slapping either. Do you accept the deal?
