You need to commit a small crime like jaywalking first. Batman will give you the worst beating of your life. You'll be in a coma for one month, then spend 10 years slowly recovering from severe injuries and brain damage.

During recovery, you'll be paralyzed but gradually regain the ability to walk. After 10 years, you'll be completely healed and magically become 18 years old again with a perfect healthy healed body. A billionaire of the name Bruce Wayne will pay all your medical bills and give you $250 million. (This is an offer you can refuse)

Batman would become real and all of DC basically if you accept this deal.

You have unlimited money, but it only exists as $1 bills.

All the bills are stacked at the top of a local mountain.

You can only haul them down with non-motorized methods (wagon, backpack, cart, sled, whatever you can pull or carry).

You cannot put them in a bank, exchange them for larger bills, convert them to gold or other valuable tradeable commodities, or digitize them.

You must spend them as single $1 bills.

And this is the only money you’re allowed to use.

So you’re infinitely rich on paper, but every dollar costs you time, strength, and logistics to move and spend.

How do you live your life under these rules?

• You would still have to go about your normal life, you can’t lock yourself inside all day.
• You cannot take a shower or bath of any kind, this also includes using baby wipes to wipe your yourself.
• You cannot use environmental substitutes such as washing yourself with the rain.

Once you accept this challenge, it starts the next day, and when you quit the money immediately gets transferred to your bank.

For the sake of argument, you can answer pretending "I wait until my child is old enough to choose by themselves" is or is not an option, but I think the second is a more interesting thought exercise.

The tail will always be roughly your child's arm's length and a finger's width, fully prehensible and controlled by them. It will be covered by skin that matches the rest of the body's skin. It will cause no health problems. It will start right at the end of your child's spine. For the sake of argument, you can pretend you know all of this beforehand.

If you agree to have the procedure done, only a small scar will be visible and there will be no complications down the line.

Do you choose to amputate your hypothetical child's tail at birth? Why/why not?

You have been contacted by a serial killer for a job offer. This particular serial-killer is a multi millionaire and he can set you up for the life.

Your job is to decide the target for your new Boss. That's it.

Boss likes the challenge. Tougher the task, more he enjoys it. More powerful the target more he will like it. He does not much care about the right and wrong but is smart enough to know that he can't just kill anyone at anytime. He is not trigger happy or loose canon. Act of killing is not important to him. It is managing to do it against all the odds.

You realize that your Boss is hyper competent. He has not failed any his kill yet. He is methodical about it and often makes his kills look like accidents.

So will you take this job?
Will you be able to make the nerve to decide the target knowing that you will be sending someone to early grave?

Conditions :
- Your Boss won't ever kill you so you don't have to live in fear of that (unless of course you decided to turn him to police). You will infact become BFFs after 10 successful hits.
- He will not kill anyone unless you decide for him.
- He requires at least one target in every 6 month from you.
- You must give him targets that are infact doable. It is expected that you do some initial research on the target before giving to Boss. It is not just about giving a name.

You are presented this deal. You get to choose one of several things that will cost at most $250. Things can still be less, but if you go to buy or pay for something, you have a special discount that will be applied so the price is $250. The catch is, if you buy something that costs way more, you cannot resell it. It is for your use only or for your immediate family, but they cannot own it. Here are the choices:

Medical care. Your current insurance, if you have it, is still in place. But if you develop cancer, or something else serious, all of the treatment for it would cost no more than $250. If you need long term care, $250. If you need a really expensive medication for a long period of time, $250. If you need extensive rehab, $250. This extends to your immediate family, children, spouse, parents.

Traveling. You can fly anywhere you want, or travel any way you want, and it will cost $250. First class ticket to Dubai? $250. However, this applies to just your travel. Your hotel, activities, food, etc are not part of this. But your travel from point A to point B is not going to cost more than $250.

Vacation. Just the reverse of above. Anywhere you travel to, your accomodations cannot cost more than $250. That doesn't mean you can be permanently on vacation. It is reasonable and the entity granting this will know what is and isn't reasonable. Luxury 5 star hotel? $250 total. This also applies to any Airbnb or anything like that. This doesn't count towards other costs of your vacation. If there are things included with your stay, like if it's all inclusive, that's fine.

Car. You can purchase any car you like and it will cost no more than $250. If you are married or something, you can gift one car to your spouse or SO. However you cannot own more than one car at a time. You cannot resell it or gift it to anyone but your SO. You are responsible for all gas, insurance, repairs, etc. If you want to get a new car, you have to wait 6 months before you can. Same rules apply for your SO, but you have to do it, they can't go buy it. If it breaks down in those 6 months, you have to pay for repairs.

Food. Any restaurant, grocery store, etc. You can go to the nicest, fanciest most exclusive restaurants, and your check will never exceed $250. You cannot host more than 3 other people. You have to pay and cannot accept money from your party of up to 3. It has to come from you. If you go to the grocery store, you can buy anything you want, but pay no more than $250. You can't resell anything you buy though. Or accept compensation in any other way.

This choice lasts for life and you get one chance at it. You cannot use your discount to profit or anyone close to you in any way. There's no loophole that allows you to. What is your choice?

like its not real but it will feel like real life. but its just a simulation

You’re given an option between 2 ways of making money. Which would you rather?

Option 1 - The Sin Tax: Every day at the end of the day you get $1 million deposited into your bank account, however, every time you break one of 7 deadly sins (pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony or sloth), no matter the severity, the amount deposited into your bank account halves. This tax stacks with each time you sin during the day with no limit. A sin counts as anything you consciously act upon and choose to disobey, unconscious and passing thoughts don’t count unless you act upon them. Every day it resets and you start with the potential to earn $1,000,000 again.

Option 2 - The Evil List: Every day you are given 8 new tasks on a todo list that get progressively more and more evil. Every task completed increases the money you receive by tenfold with a limit up to $10 million a day. The $1 task starts off simple with something like telling a lie to someone and the final $10 million task is something like killing an innocent family of 4. A more moderate task around $10,000 would be something like convincing someone to do something that will actively harm them or stealing an item of high value. After completing the task, the money is deposited immediately into your bank account. If an item is not completed or completed partially, you do not receive the reward for completing the task. Every day at 12 AM according to your time zone, the todo list refreshed and you are given 8 new tasks.

With this hypothetical, you will stop aging from where you are right now. You will also never be able to die. You're basically immortal. Now instead of you watching everything you know die do you have a Time Machine you can go back in time to anytime and basically do You want cause you cannot die.

What are you doing with this?

You must pick one non-human animal to compete in an Olympic shooting-related event (i.e. the Rapid Fire Pistol event).

Assume your country provides you with the funding to train an animal and to hire a gunsmith to make an appropriate firearm for them to compete with.

The animal must not be enhanced whether it is through chemical, electronics, mechanical etc. means, though non-electronic soft earplugs for hearing protection are allowed.

You, as the animal's coach, are allowed to be physically present and to guide them through the event.

If the animal shoots you (accidentally or otherwise) that is considered a DNC.

Which animal would you pick to train? How would you make them a gun to compete with?

it was even in your tenancy agreement that you would not touch the paprika. any contact you have with the landlord at some point he will always mention the paprika, reminding you NOT to touch the paprika. not to EAT the paprika. not to go anywhere near the paprika.

he even implies he will know if you touch it.

... do you succumb to the curiosity and try the paprika anyway? do you do anything else?

If you walk past it on the street, you have to walk in and buy some food/goods/services from it. If you're driving on the freeway and you see it at the next exit, you need to pull off and head over. If you walk by at the airport, I hope your flight isn't leaving that soon.

It has to be a business that you are likely to pass by frequently (so you can't look up a sandwich shop on the other side of the world that you'll never go to). It can be a specific place (Taco Bell) or a category of business (card shop).

What do you choose?

Aliens show up and announce that will grant us knowledge of nuclear fusion and cancer cures, but only if we are able to reduce the population on Earth by 1 billion in one year's time. If we are not able to accomplish the task, all human life will cease to exist. You have been put in charge of deciding the best course of action.

You have been given an army of drones that will protect you as well as give you access to any electric system in the world. Foreign languages will be translated as needed. The drones can kill, but there are not enough of them to fulfill the task in the time allotted. They are mainly the enforcers to your directives.

They provide a location tracker for every human on the planet as a way of knowing what the current population is in real time as well as a way to see who might be hiding. Once the reduced number is reached, the information will be shared. For example, if the starting population is 9 billion, the instant the population reaches 8 billion, the task is over even is 10 children are born a second later.

As a show of their power and as extra incentive, they move Ceres into orbit around Mars.

EDIT: Reduce the human population by 1 billion. You are the one to oversee the project, so you are the one who approves who dies and how. The drones can be used to force governments to implement your decision either by killing the leaders, or falsifying orders/failsafes on weapons.

Surprised I haven't seen what proposals there are for what to do with a billion dead bodies that would occur in a year.

For some economic reason, the world is redistributing wealth.

Everyone gets 1 chance to ‘own’ a thing (e.g rubber bands/roads/tea) and get a royalty every time that item is used, bought, or referenced.

The royalty is a micro amount, like $0.00008 cents, so you want to choose something with a high return.

Something that’s used daily, by millions (if not billions) of people globally.

Here’s the catch though - on the day everybody casts a vote on what they want to ‘own’ they get 1 vote ONLY, and if somebody else around the world votes for that item, the dividends are split, becoming worthless quickly.

For example, 1 million people vote to own ‘Tractors’ so the $0.00008 dividend suddenly becomes $0.00000000008.

Additional rule: Niche/overly specific categories by adding adjectives get combined with the broader category (e.g you couldn’t say you wanted to own Purple Tractors). A committee oversees what’s reasonable categorisation. You cannot own people, animals, words, places. It has to be a consumable.

What would you vote to ‘own’ and profit off dividends for usage, in hopes that nobody else (or as few people in the world) also vote to own?

I would choose a specific spice like Paprika.

Depending on what laws you consider unjust and what is illegal where you live the charges the defendant is facing could be just about anything. For instance the defendant might be facing criminal charges for possessing weed, or the defendant might be someone who stole medicine that they couldn’t afford in order to save a loved one, or the defendant might be a doctor who performed an abortion in a place where abortions are banned, or the defendant might be charged with breaking another law that you think is unjust.

During the time that the trial is set for you don’t have any plans, and if you don’t tell the person interviewing you that you think that the law the defendant is being charged with breaking is unjust then they will have no way of knowing. You also have no association with the defendant nor the prosecution, and you’ve never been in the defendants shoes nor have you been in the shoes of the one pressing charges.

Do you tell the person who’s interviewing you that you believe that the law the defendant is being charged with breaking is unjust in order to get out of jury duty or do you keep your mouth shut in order to try to interfere with the law being enforced through sentencing?

When you accept, you will be sent back to when you celebrated your 3rd birthday and would relive your life until the final day you were 18

You would be given $10M once you relived that timespan 10,000 times, as you’ll be sent back to your current life with the money

You can totally do anything that you haven’t done during the actual yearspan of your life, but it would all be erased and everything would go back to normal

Would you accept?

Edit: If you die during any of these times, you would be sent back for 24 hours before your death which has been reversed, forgot to mention the possibility of death

Ok so I got kinda existential with this one

Here are the rules and details:

You will be placed in a chamber without internet connection or windows. The chamber is roughly 30square meters (foughly 100ft) in size. With a 3meter (roughly 10 feet) tall roof. There's a bathroom, and a robot vacuum that keeps the floors clean. In front of you, a huge screen that covers a whole wall, and the most beautiful hi fi sound system you've ever heard. A table with a pause button. You have a clock which tells you the time, a bed, and there are different measures that will help you manage your circadian rythm. Such as adaptive lighting; not only on the space but also on the screen; and background noise if requested.

You may hit the pause button if you want but... it is just a pause button, it won't skip media, it'll just interrupt the play ack

All the media (movies,series,youtube videos,streams,tiktok,instagram posts, reddit posts,music) are stored and ready to play. The playback doesn't have any particular order and you can't see how much playback time is left Media that is music focused is treated different (as explained later in the post) except for music videos, which will be treated like regular media.

Every weekend you are allowed to recieve and send letters from loved ones, with the purpose of not completely isolating you and keep you and your family updated. With a limit of 4 recieved and 4 sent letters per month. Safe to say, you cannot recieve any items outside of letters you can read. You may only write or read letters while music is playing (except music videos as mentioned previously) or while the playback is paused.

If you want you dont have to look at the media, but you can't make time go on faster. On top of that, if you're not looking, you're not allowed to mute, and viceversa. In this case, trying to cover your ears if you're not watching will result in a loud, debilitating phantom ringing induced by your brain implant. And as i've said, goes both ways, preventing you from avoiding the playback.

A device has been implanted in your brain to detect when you're asleep, and also to help induce your sleep. This device also allows individuals without hearing to be able to hear again until the playback is up.

You are barely allowed contact with other human beings. You will get visited by staff, which will serve you with your basic needs, like food, water, maintaining hygiene of the space and also nurses/doctors will come to check on you: however they are not allowed to communicate with you in any humanly or meaningful way. You are allowed tools like razors, tweezers or whatever BASIC products you might need to keep your image if you need to. Clothes, bed sheets, towels, shampoo, conditioner, etc. Are all provided, no need to worry. In case you have any disabilities or health issues and/or you depend on certain medications or special needs, those will be provided to keep you fit, if so you choose.

-You get three meals a day, and you get to pick the food! however: portions will be controlled, as your diet must be balanced. This means calories will be counted to adjust for your body's daily needs. This is all in efforts to keep you from getting sick... -You may opt out from the controlled diet but in doing so you're voiding any guarantee to get medical attention for conditions that MAY be attained to your own choice, for example: if you picked dietary freedom and get diabetes, it might be assumed by the staff that it was because of your dietary decisions without any further analisis. So be careful with that.

-Necessary dietary supplements (vitamins,minerals,etc...) will be provided aswell.

-You may exercise while you watch everything go by: a threadmill is provided, otherwise you can excersise using your own body and the ground if you wish. Excersising will obviously elevate the amount lf calories you can take in a day. However you are not forced to exercise if you dont want to!

-You can't sleep through the content. The moment you fall asleep, your brain implant detects it and stops the playback. Resuming it only when you wake up.

-In case the media requires you to read, it will be read by a text to speech bot (which you can mute) that reads at about 200 wpm. Making skipping long posts, E-books or other content you've read before impossible to skip through quickly.

• Music content will only play in a fixed specific time window that you can customize (eg: from 2pm to 5pm) this is so that if you wish, you can read through books, comics or manga of your choice, though this won't change the amount of time you'll spend in there. When it comes to live shows you aren't forced to be watching, and you can read if you want. But this isn't the case for music videos, even life performance-esque music videos (like radiohead - creep), which you can't read through and aren't part of the fixed customizable schedule. When it comes to music there will be NO repeats. Meaning it doesn't matter if you have streamed the song thousands of times, you will only hear it only that one time. Music will merge with music videos if available, but this doesn't count for live performances which will be treated differently. If youre starting to run out of music or visual media, these schedules will be accomodated to fit, making it so that, if you're running out of any type of media, you might get music outside the regular fixed schedule to fill the space and vice-versa.

For media you have never finished watching , like for example, a 40 hour video essay that only watched 5 minutes of it, you will only have to re watch those 5 minutes. This goes for all forms of media, you only have to re-consume what you've consumed. No more, no less.

Any attempt of you escaping will result in frustration or simply execution. You can choose to get euthanized or simply die with the tools you have at disposal, like asking for a poor, but tasty diet that will slowly kill you for example!

How cooked are you? Or how comfortable are you? How long do you think it will take for you to get out? You think you could bear it? -> You can pick between taking your own life or someone else's. -> if you chose to pick to kill a loved one, you can pick it or you may ask for the pick to be at random

A genie offers you to make 3 wishes. However, after you make your third wish, he will randomly pick 2 of them and grant them to you. The third wish you made will be granted to the next person he gives that offer to, while you will be granted the ungranted wish from the previous person he met.

The catch is that you don't know what the previous person's wish was, and the genie isn't going to tell you until after you made your wishes. If you are concerned it could be something that will mess up your life, you can leave without making any wishes and get nothing. If you try to "loophole" things to ensure you will be the only benefittor from everything while the next person doesn't benefit from any of your wishes, the genie gets mad for you cheating and revokes the offer, cursing you with eternal bad luck on his way out.

Do you take the wishes, and if so - what do you wish for? If not, why not?

You cant have both. Id pick animals can understand me.

Pretty much you've got too much money to have to worry about anything, what is the big thing you do with the excess money and your life.

The genie is GENUINELY on your side, there will be no tricks. The only stipulations are the wishes must seem plausibly real to your new self (so no superpowers or anything physically impossible, but you could wish to be a rich ultra-attractive super genius or something).

Any negative consequences from the wishes will still happen, for example if you wish for your new family to be rich, they may end up leaving you with nothing. You could also grow to be a worse person. For any unused wishes the genie will pick for you and use his own judgement to better your life, and you WILL be starting over no matter what you do.

If you try to use any loopholes to get more wishes, seemingly impossible things, or even keep your memories, it MIGHT work depending on the method... but then the genie will switch to malicious compliance mode and try to ruin your new life, so tread carefully!

What wishes do you make?

There are some constraints:

1/ Your books cannot involve mass violence or apocalyptic events. They also cannot remove or delete key components of our infrastructure (politically or mechanically) to cause mass harm (e.g. cannot delete petroleum deposits starting tomorrow).

2/ Your books cannot bring anyone already dead back to life or specifically target an existing person or group for death.

3/ Your books cannot enrich or benefit you personally in a direct manner. If what comes as a result from the scenario of your book turns out to help you financially or otherwise, that is fine.

4/ Finally, what you write will only impact what occurs going forward and will not/cannot re-write history that has already occurred.

The scope of your books transcend well beyond the Earth, our Galaxy and is inclusive of the entire Universe as we know it.

What are your three book titles?

However one of those favors is that you can't be released from jail.
