Would You Rather...

[Diana Delafield]

Buy. Our current car is at least 15 years old and we are still happy with it and hope to get some more years (it may not have the bells and whistles, but it feels so right when driving)

WYR read paper books or ebooks?

Even if I didn't already much prefer paper, that would have to be my choice because ebooks give me instant migraines.

WYR take the stairs or use an elevator/escalator?

I have dodgy arthriticky knees, I have to do elevator or escalator (especially going down). WYR ride a pushbike or motorbike?

Paper books. I'm old school when it comes to this.

WYR buy a "practical" car or an "exotic" car (assuming you had unlimited funds)?

(I don't know how to combine this and TallyT's simultaneous response in one screen)

I still have a bicycle (motor bikes are too noisy) but it's not too practical in our rainy climate here, so I almost always use my little unobtrusive practical car. Everybody looks at the fancy expensive cars and I'm not a good driver or parker in lots. I don't want to attract attention beyond being seen by larger vehicles and not squashed like a bug.

WYR do freelance work (if you could make a living at it) or work at a job for an employer?

[See reply to iluvtodd, since I didn't know how to put both questions on one screen ]

a pushbike (I'm assuming you mean a plain, regular bike here)

WYR learn to play a musical instrument or a contact sport?

I guess pairs skating doesn't count as a contact sport, although it feels like it quite often . Otherwise, no one my size wants to play contact sports! I already play several musical instruments but am always happy to try another one out of curiosity.

WYR take artistic photographs of scenic views/historical landmarks, or have someone else take your picture/take selfies of yourself visiting those places?

 

[iluvtodd]

I let my husband take most of the pictures, including selfies & the scenic views. He does it really well. When I had the pleasure of meeting Kaori Sakamoto up close & personal @ 2025 Boston Worlds, I had her take the selfie (she's much better @ it than I am)!

WYR see a new musical or a revival of a personal favorite musical?

WYR see a new musical or a revival of a personal favorite musical?

A revival, as long as it hasn't been changed from the original. I haven't been too impressed by new musicals for years, and never like revised new versions of old ones, especially ones I've sung in myself. (She grumps, thumping her cane on the porch )

WYR peel, slice and put together your own fruit salad, or buy one readymade in a store because that's less work? (I made that fruit, since everyone I know is regarding veggie salads with great suspicion these days, especially with lettuce)
