A genie curses you to veganism. This will make you literally unable to eat anything that you reasonably believe to have been made with animal products. He takes pity on you though and allows you to keep eating one type of food.

  • I will retain the ability to eat meat, (including fish)
  • I will retain the ability to eat dairy
  • I will retain the ability to eat eggs
  • I choose not to take the genie’s offer. Full veganism for me.

You are a voter in Nazi Germany during the 1940s. Amazingly, it still holds democratic elections during this time.

Candidate A, if elected, will exterminate 12 million people in death camps. Candidate B, if elected, will exterminate 11 million people in death camps. There are third parties that advocate that there be no genocide at all, but they stand no chance of winning the election due to their tiny size and voter base.

You are anti-genocide. You are repeatedly told by people and media that you must vote for Candidate B because “if you dislike genocide, then how could it be better to vote for Candidate A? Candidate A would only do even more genocide. And if you vote third party or abstain from voting, then that’s a de facto vote for Candidate A. The only morally correct choice is to vote for Candidate B.”

  • vote for Candidate A (12 million)
  • vote for Candidate B (11 million)
  • vote third party
  • abstain from voting

Another darn genie shows up, before it opens it’s mouth, do you:

  • Whip out your de-atomizer / pistol / rocket launcher and start blasting!
  • Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters (any era) and trap it forever!
  • Rip out your own vocal cords before you can be forced to agree with any of it’s insanity!
  • Trap it in a Seal of Solomon and bury it deep in the desert in accordance with historical norms.
  • Join in a mob of angry, torch and pitchfork wielding comrades and tear it to shreds in righteous vengeance!
  • Attempt to engage it in reasonable discourse about how it’s efforts are counterproductive to the evolution of rational, ethical beings rather than the random workings of fate and higher powers.
  • Refuse to deal with it as much as possible, and then when it finally turns away, nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
  • Stick fingers in your ears and sing “lalalalalala” as loudly as possible until it leaves or finds another sucker.
  • Try to reason with it until it’s parents finally realize that their precious baby is tormenting the mortals again.
  • Regardless of successful chances or weapons, leap forth to defeat the genie with your bare hands, secure in the knowledge that death is better than dealing with it!
  • Have a major breakdown, right then are there as your SAN stat drops to zero. That’ll learn them!
  • Confronted by proof of the supernatural, develop the True Faith perk and banish it back to the nether realms.
  • Confronted by proof of the supernatural, demand the Genie instead awaken the Old Ones and let the whole world burn!
  • Become a Bacon Hindu Athiest!

You see a lavish mansion that is for sale at a strangely cheap price. You ask the owner why they’re selling so low and it turns out the house is infested with thousands of big spiders. Not wanting to “nuke it from orbit,” the owner is selling instead. The spiders are all of the Nephila, Argiope, Sparassidae or Lycosidae variety - scary but harmless.

Assuming you have the funds to purchase and you cannot use an exterminating service or anyone else (you must get all the spiders out of the house manually by yourself,) do you purchase the house to live in or sell for profit?

  • yes
  • no

For reasons, you are offered ownership of a fabulously famous and priceless artwork, the caveats being you must take physical ownership of it, and are not allowed to sell it, lease it, or lend it. Do you accept?
  • Absolutely. I will be a responsible and trustworthy steward of this irreplaceable treasure. And it will look great hanging on my wall!
  • I’m flattered, but I’m really not prepared for that kind of responsibility. No thank you!
  • Maybe. I’ll have to see it first.
