Would You??

[Lykren]

If they were cooked and spiced.

Would you rather permanently erase all punctuation or all emoticons from the human mind and imagination?

[Pompey Bum]

Emoticons, although I fear we need them to prevent misunderstandings. But what is that next to dangling modifiers?

Would you cry in front of someone you were really angry at?

[Lykren]

Ooh toughie. Realistically no, but I'd regret stopping myself afterwards.

Would you like to meet your heroes, or not disillusion yourself?

[NikolaiI]

Meet my heroes. I know everyone is human.

Would you stay with a friend if they were struggling with addiction? I suppose, also, would you have the strength to be able to?

[Lykren]

I don't have a sense for how hard that would be! So I don't know but of course I hope so.

Would you categorically leave if your spouse cheated?

[NikolaiI]

Nope, definitely wouldn't. . hard to imagine that happening but I would definitely stay and try to work it out.

Would you chase a storm for fun?

[bounty]

yes...im a sort of danger/thrill seeker...

would you play a really evil character in a movie?

[Pike Bishop]

Absolutely, the bad/evil characters are the most interesting:

Goeth in Schindler's List
Hannibal Lecter
The Joker in The Dark Knight
Rev. Harry Powell in Night of the Hunter...and many more

Could you listen to music you despised if the woman or man you were courting loved it?...and pretended you liked it?...and for how long?

[bounty]

they are interesting yes...but for me, id fear some damage to my soul somehow in the process. I think it would hurt to play evil and take a great toll.

i wouldn't do that. I would listen and give an honest appraisal of my dislike, while at the same time seeking to explore why my girlfriend loved it so much...and perhaps if I couldn't grow appreciative of it, I might grow at least more accepting.

[Pompey Bum]

What's the next question, Bounty?

[bounty]

ack! sorry!

well, a good follow-up then. knowing it might take some toll on you, would you play an evil character, for "art's sake?"

[Pompey Bum]

Yes: the show must go on.

If you were the judge, would you throw the book at that Oklahoma deputy who shot the suspect instead of tasing him?

[Lykren]

Yes.

Would you?

[Pompey Bum]

Well, I'd take his age into consideration in the sentence. Still he's only charged with Man 2, so I wouldn't shorten it too much. He's going to be out on parole by Christmas anyway.

Would you keep calm and play dead if you were approached by a threatening grizzly bear?

[Lykren]

Probably not.

Would you read all of In Search of Lost Time in one go (breaks for sleeping but you have to read while eating) if you knew that if you said no, you could never read it again?
