Would You Rather...

after I wake up (or some time in the morning). When I swim @ the gym, I do it in the morning, and take a shower right after that.

WYR take a bath or shower?
Shower, we had the bath taken out when renovating and don't miss it.

WYR (were either possible) travel through space or through time?
 
Shower but I also love bath, however where I live real bathtubs are not that common and what is more common in houses/apartments is almost like an oversized bucket that you can’t even stretch your legs and really relax, it’s so uncomfortable, therefore we never use it. But going overseas and even some more nicer local hotels I am always happy to find real bathtubs in the bathroom and always take relaxing bath while staying at these hotels.

It’s sleep time! Would you rather have many pillows, cushions and stuffed animals in your bed and sleep making yourself comfortable with all of this or just one pillow, the sheets and the blanket?

Bath, decidedly. (Bubbles, please.) Grew up in a house built in the 1920s with only tubs in the bathrooms. Never learned how to use showers without getting half-drowned and still hate it when that's the only option.

Would you rather vacation in a big busy city or go camping in the woods?
 
Oh I don't do camping, I *hate* sleeping on the floor, I require a nice mattress full of pillows and cushions, a nice blanket on a nice bed frame very away from the floor and to me camping and woods equal insects which I am very very terrified/panic about. If the camping you mention doesn't involve sleeping outside in a tent on the floor during hot weather, which I refuse, and can be in a heated wooden chalet located remotely in very, very snowy mountains in the middle of the Winter and middle of nowhere, only accessible by a snow vehicle, then YES, love it very much and my husband and I did it last in the Winter of 2022. Opening the door to gorgeous snow mountain view and instead of walking outside we skied outside. Maximum fun.

I already live in the biggest metropolitan area in the world, so nowhere I go can be busier than my living location.

Would you rather live in a big home but you have to clean it yourself or live in a smaller home but someone comes to clean it often?
 
attend to a football game

would you rather live on the city or a outside the city?
In a big city. Always have, never wanted to move to a small town or a rural area.

Provided you could afford to, would you rather live in a large old home full of antique furniture and artworks, or in a modern penthouse apartment with expensive minimalist furniture?
 
large old home full of antique furniture and artworks that I should convert to a smart home using modern technology like I did with the old apartment we live in 😂

You're not a figure skater any longer. Would you rather be a ballerina or a gymnast?
 
I did become a tech “wizard” (put in quotations since it’s a field I highly doubt anyone is a true wizard since the landscape is continually changing and what was a skill yesterday, it’s obsolete today, it requires continuous study/upgrading skills) after being forced to retire ballet, I went to study engineering (cyber security) trying to fill the gap of total dedication to a single one highly specialized skill. It didn’t, so I went into figure skating. Still an engineer, $$ is great, great work/skating balance (90% skating 10% engineering 😂). No to language, I’ve lived in so many countries since early age, forced to learn the local languages and consider I have zero talent (or interest) for languages (except the 01001011 language 😂)

You must relocate countries now. Would you rather live in a country which language you know (either know or native), or go elsewhere with an unknown language?

Go elsewhere where I don't yet know the language. I like challenges.

Would you rather perform as part of an ensemble (in general, no specific type) or as a soloist?
 
Soloist 100% having to spend months in the corps de ballet upon joining a company was enough to last a lifetime of not wanting it and and work hard nonstop to be promoted to soloist ASAP😂

You must be outdoors for something. Would you rather have the very hot weather with strong sun or below zero temperature snowing?

Below zero temperature and snowing. (Skin allergy to direct sunlight. Also can't tolerate heat indoors or out due to Systemic Sjogren's Syndrome. People with that don't perspire, or not enough.)

Would you rather see skating costumes where the sparkle comes from bright coloured fabric alone or from the addition of a lot of sequins and beading?
 
I feel like there is a place for both kinds of costumes. ;)

Would you rather be a famous top chef or a famous online influencer?

(Never tripped on someone else's dropped sequin? I have. Give me dazzling fabric anytime!)

Chef, as long as I can just prepare the food for others and don't have to eat it. Never been a food fancier.

Would you rather work on a cruise ship (any occupation) or as a flight attendant on an international airline?

Yes, tripped on many sequins, pieces of live flowers (when they were allowed to throw them). Nothing like just about breaking an ankle AND ruining a blade.

Flight attendant.

Would you rather live on a tropical island, or somewhere very cold?

Anywhere very cold. Do. Not. Like. Heat.

Whoa! I just came back to Games, and I saw that @TallyT 's question inadvertently got skipped! And such a good one too :)

Through time. Although I time travel when I'm writing -- I find it thrilling and easy to put myself back in my own shoes as a fourth-grader, for one example. Also, I am ambivalent and/or contradictory ... I like Lisa Kudrow's answer when asked if she'd want to travel back in time. "No," she said, "I like our plumbing."

Now, back to @Diana Delafield 's question:

Would you rather be a guest at a formal, traditional wedding locally or spend the money and your vacation time to attend a destination wedding?
 
Local 100% I don’t like this kind of gathering (people we knew gave us a wedding party since we didn’t even bother having one when we married 😂) , would do my best to avoid going to even a local one, but would tolerate depending on who it was but travel to it? No.

It’s your birthday! Would you rather have a big party with a lot of people or spend the day going and doing many fun things with your spouse or boyfriend/girlfriend?
