10 Impossibly Thought-Provoking 'Would You Rather' Questions

Ah, Would You Rather? the game played at slumber parties and awkward middle school parties everywhere. Normally, the options that contextualize the “would you rather" question are not particularly thought-provoking. Which, I guess, one could consider fun depending on how you define it.

That doesn't cut it for me though and if, like me, you've been in search of a game of Would You Rather that will stimulate some deep thinking, look no further. I have scoured the deep, depths of the Internet and arisen victoriously, discovering a few questions that made me contemplate life and existence. So, without further ado, here are 10 of the hardest to answer Would You Rather? questions.

1. Would you rather, only be able to see 10 minutes into your own future anytime you want or be able to see anyone's entire future but, not you're own, 10 times throughout your life?

In one case, you will, literally, always be prepared for anything and everything, but in the other case, you would, pretty much, be a genie and people would probably think you were a prophet or something. Could be cool.

2. Would you rather, have the entire world think you're a horrible person but have your family be proud of you; or have the entire world think highly of you but your family thinks you're a horrible person?

This one wasn't that hard for me to consider because I don't think I could live without my family, however, I felt it was worth including because it could absolutely produce contemplation in someone else.

3. Would you rather, have true love and be poor but be incredibly happy or be a billionaire, married to someone you don't love but still be sort-of happy?

This question speaks to what makes you happy I guess.

4. Would you rather, relive the same day, repeatedly, for a year or lose a year of your life?

Upon first glance, this question seems pretty basic but if you think a little deeper about it, in both options you lose a year of your life. Reliving the same day over and over again you wouldn't make any new progressions. At least in the second option, you don't have to drive yourself insane doing the same, exact, thing every day.

5. Would you rather find out for certain that there is a God but, He's judging us according to the Bible or that we were created by aliens and they're just observing us like zoo animals?

I couldn't think about this one for too long…

6. Would you rather have magical powers in the normal world and not be able to tell anyone or live in a magical world of your creation but there's nothing magical about you?

I sat, staring at my computer and thinking about this question for at least a half-hour and still haven't decided.

7. Would you rather be able to forget any of your past memories at any time or be able to make someone forget their memory but when they do, you acquire it as your own?

I know I have some things I would love to forget but to have other people's memories might get complicated.

8. Would you rather have to say EXACTLY what you're thinking all the time or be able to read minds but only the bad things people are thinking about you?

I mean, there are serious pros and cons to both options here. I mean in one case you'd probably be considered the worst secret keeper in the world but also the most honest person, which, if you're nice about it, can be a great quality. In the other case though, you would know exactly what people thought of you all the time, which could be a great advantage but could also be really hurtful.

9. Would you rather know all the mysteries of the Universe or know every outcome of every choice you make?

So. Much. Knowledge. Too much knowledge? Also, knowing the outcome of every choice you make takes away from a lot of learning experiences and life surprises.

10. Would you rather know, without being able to change it, when you're going to die or how you're going to die?

Ugh. Either way, you'd be living your life anticipating your death. Am I allowed to say neither?

Life is full of choices and hopefully, we won't have to choose between any of these situations because honestly, I don't know if I could. On the plus side, next time you find yourself caught in a game of Would You Rather, you'll definitely be the player with the best questions.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
