Would you rather...

Growing up I loved this children's book; Would You Rather...  Apparently it is not in print anymore, but if your library has it I suggest checking it out.  You get to choose between a bunch of gross options, some scary options and some really cool options.  It was a favorite read aloud at our house and we would all get to say what we would rather doing and why.  Lots of games and new books, some of them VERY adult (too adult for me) are on the market that let you do the same thing, but Juan isn't a fan of choosing between all good or all bad options unless he's forced into it so no games for us and I didn't really even know about the books until I did this search. Anyway, I like would you rather stuff and hope some of you do too.  Here is a little list to think about and my personal answers, please comment if you would choose something different :).

1.Would you rather be blind or deaf?
Deaf, a loss of any sense is hard, but I am SUCH a visual person I think sight would be the hardest sense for me to loose.

2.Would you rather loose and arm or a leg?
A leg because a prosthetic leg is a better replacement that a prosthetic arm.

3. Would you rather be beautiful, but dumb or ugly, but smart?
This depends on degrees for me, as long a your are smart enough to live independently I would choose beautiful, but dumb because I think it offers a greater chance for happiness than ugly but smart.  If you were so disabled you couldn't live independently I'd choose ugly, but smart.

4. Would you rather be more rich or more attractive?
If the "new me" started now I would choose rich because although I am decidedly average looking, Juan likes how I look and money would be more useful.  If I were single I might choose differently.  If this was starting when I was born I would choose more rich because money issues can cause SO much stress in a family, more rich benefits far more people than one person being more attractive. 

5. Would you rather it be winter forever or summer forever? 
I would take a nice northern style or tropical summer forever any day, but I do like changing seasons.  I think I'd choose having a Texas winter over a Texas summer all the time, but I don't know, neither are my ideal weather. 

What are some other good would you rather questions?
