Water is the rational choice. Spend a night in jail or a night fighting with your SO? ---

Fighting. At least, after we kiss and make up, I get to sleep in my own bed. Wordsworth or Byron? ---

While it might be nice to make sure Hell is as bad as they say, spending one day in Heaven would be like Super Spa day, so I’ll take that. I will eat as much cake and ice cream as I want (since it is all calorie-free in Heaven.) Spend one day in the dystopian future of _1984_, or one day in the dystopian future of _Brave New World_? ---

The _Brave New World_ society is more pleasant, as I remember it, so I’ll go with that. Spend a week on the world or aboard the ship of your choice in _Star Wars_ or _Star Trek_? ---

Star Trek, as long as we spend a couple months at Deep Space Nine. Work with Scotty or Geordi? ---

Hmm. Never had a massage that long. I’ll try that. Hang out with Sherlock Holmes c. 1895 or c. 2017? ---

Snoopy. I prefer my snark quietly meditative. You are sitting down to a feast. It would be rude not to eat a great deal of food. Would you prefer Italian, French or English cuisine?
