Oh yes, definately.
Would you consider doing 'adventure tourism' in say... Iraq?

Well, I'd consider it at least, if it were presented with full accommodation...
You've found a 20 dollar bill on the ground! Would you look around for the owner before pocketing?
There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written or badly written. ~Oscar Wilde.
I probably wouldn't pick it up. I'd just leave it for the next person who came along. Someone once told me to consider what if it'd been the last money of a poor mother or tramp and they came back to trace their steps and it was gone. I sound awfully self-righteous, don't I. I don't mean to though.
Would you have an affair with a married man/woman?or
?
"...You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?..." E. A. Poe
No I wouldn't because I deserve better than:
a) A person who wants the best of both worlds without any responsibility for their actions
or
b) A person who is unhappy in their marriage and uses other people to escape.
Would you turn in a drug addicted friend to the police if you knew it would get them the help they needed?
Before sunlight can shine through a window, the blinds must be raised - American Proverb
If I knew? Hmm... I don't think so. Because I don't think I could really know it would get them the help they need.
But, if I'm humouring you and assuming that I do know anything, let alone this, for certain, I probably would.
I was the kid on the playground that tattled on other kids when I thought what they were doing was wrong, and if I thought that tattling was the right thing to do. I didn't have any friends for that reason. I was too honest. Social ineptitude for the win.
If you witnessed a man or woman in a grocery store with their child, being rough and, in your opinion at least, borderline abusive (Grabbing, dragging, etc) , would you intervene with their parenting methods?

No, it's not my place to do so. Though if they were severely beating the child, I would have to at least say something.
Would you?
"All gods are homemade, and it is we who pull their strings, and so, give them the power to pull ours." -Aldous Huxley
"Sooner murder an infant in its cradle than nurse unacted desires." -William Blake
If I thought they were being borderline abusive, I'd call them out on it, yeah. They may continue, or because they've been given a public spotlight, maybe they would re-evaluate their choices.
Sometimes we do the wrong thing without knowing it before we're shown. A recent study shows that people who do unethical behaviour only do so because they are not shown disapproval by people in public.
I'd likely approach them and say something along the lines of, ''I'm really very sorry to bother you, sir or madame, and I don't wish to push my beliefs on you or to be rude, but I think that the way you're treating junior is disturbing the customers as well as the employees.''
At worst, I could be insulted, or attacked verbally for speaking out and going into another person's business. If attacked physically, then that would prove the justification of my speaking. In either scenario, the perceived consequences of my actions don't bother me.
Would you be dishonest everyday in order to live forever, or tell the truth and die tomorrow?

be dishonest for a while and then when I would get very old and all the people close to me would die I'd tell the truth.
Would you bath in someone's blood in order to look young and live forever?

I have never thought of it, but in a word or more - No, I doubt it. Plus it is too hypothetical for my way of thinking.
Would you write a book without an advance?
Sure, if royalty percentage was decent, or if the publisher was female and was at a time wearing a blouse that allowed her bra shoulder strap to show. (I'm cheap. In reality, I'll write for jar of olives.)Originally Posted by tonywalt
Would you eat a can of dog food if there was nothing else in the cupboard (and the dog had already eaten)?
Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine...
No, or I'd have to be extremely hungry but I once tasted dog food and it's gross so I'd rather not eat it ever again.
Would you like to travel back to the past? Before answering, remember that anything you do there might effect the course of history.
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past - The Great Gatsby
Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice - Polonius (Hamlet)
I once wrote a story called Corridors Past about that very same thing. I would say yes because human nature could not help itself if it developed the technology to do so.
If you found $20 just lying on the ground and there was homeless person right in front of you, would you give it to them, or put it in your pocket?

I would give it to them. And if I was inclined to take it I would never really admit it.
If you could change your University or College degree or if you do not have one and could choose now - what degree would you pick?
I would like to keep the one i already have.
Would you like to start over your education if you ever get the chance ?
No. If I'd get a chance to relive the past I'd rather travel all over the world.
Would you like to go on a world tour while someone dear to you would be in the hospital?
I must create a system, or be enslaved by another man's. ~ William Blake
Captivity is consciousness,
So's liberty. ~ Emily Dickinson
