Both have oppressive governments, both have dangerous roving troublemakers, but last I checked Firefly didn't have planet-buster weapons in the hands of the morally questionable, so definitely that one.

Would you rather be chased by a horde of Reavers or Magog?

WYR be a werewolf who can't control outward changes or one who can't control mental changes (I.e, becoming a feral wolf in mind but not in body).

Historically, removing starwars is relatively insignificant; we loose the introduction of the energy blade, a couple of game developers languish in obscurity, and a frankly overrated special effects company never exists, that's about it. Removing startrek on the other hand would undermine the entire scifi genre, and several key points in history. It's the reason Scifi productions are given proper budgets outside of theaters, the reason convention culture is a thing, it inspired the shuttle, and it repeatedly served as a vessel to drive home the value of accepting people regardless of race. and that's just the original series' accomplishments.

WYR experience being blind or deaf.

That's...really tough. I think maybe being blind. I hate the idea of anything creeping up from behind me, and though that would be a problem for both of them, with blindness I'd probably have a cane to beat them with. Plus, I can't go without music.
WYR only listen to an annoying song for the rest of your life, or never again hear your favorite song?

Never hear my favorite song again. My favorite song seems to change every couple of months, so I'll be over the loss soon anyways.

WYE have to binge every piece of media from the Star Trek Franchise in less than a month, or the entirety of the web serial Worm in less than a day?

(have fun not sleeping for that whole month then roo. he said media, not episodes or movies. that means the licensed works probably count too, and they've been going non-stop since the 70s.)

Snails have better defenses. also, if it's the right kind of snail, i can get as big as a lunchbox. a worm cant do that.

WYR be launched into space to explore the stars for the rest of your days, or be dropped in a mini-sub to explore the deepest ocean depths for the rest of your days?

Drink coke.

Would you rather :

Option A: At the first of every month, you are magically teleported onto an airplane and you aren't sure exactly where its headed. Regardless of the destination, you must stay in the state or country for a month before the cycle repeats itself again.

Option B: At the first of every month, you are given a random animal to keep as a pet. The animal can range from a cat or dog to a tiger or cape buffalo. By the end of the month, the animal magically disappears and the cycle repeats itself for the next month.

Both options are for the rest of your life.

Since I don't own a dog, I have no choice but to choose the second option. Explaining it to my work would be easier said than done, though.

Would you rather:

Option A: You open up Google Maps and drop the little man on Street View. A "teleport" option pops up with a Yes/No box. Click yes and you instantly teleport to that place for free and are safely placed on a sidewalk away from traffic. You can easily explore the world this way as long as the place has street view. However, you'll need to walk to the nearest place with free Wifi to teleport back home. Also, if you get too adventurous, you could wind up in a dangerous ghetto or a desolate highway miles from civilization. You'll have to be careful with this gift.

Option B: You can breathe and walk underwater as if its air. You're immune to drowning and crushing pressure so you can freely explore the bottom of lakes and oceans. However, you still get tired and need to eat. Also, you can still be attacked or killed by the wildlife that lives underwater like gators, sharks or anything with a venomous stinger.

A, definitely A. I'd love to be able to teleport around and visit people IRL with just a mouseclick. I don't think it'd be too inconvenient to fine some internet connection to get back home. It would be even better if I could use my own data for the connection. xD

Exploring the sea wouldbe nice, but it's pretty dark down under water... xD And I really don't want to be eaten by whatever if waiting there.


WYR have a free and fast mobile internet connection that you can't use at home or a free and fast connection at home while the other one is expensive and slow on both options?

I almost never use the Internet on anything but my PCs, so mobile connections are worthless to me either way. make that wifi, though and it'd be option b.

would you rather be a shark or a falcon?

being able to breathe under water has more practical uses, does not rely on a skill that takes regular exercise to maintain, and is easier to conceal.

would you rather be thrown back in time and trapped in ancient rome or ancient china?

my laptop is a 9 year old budget model that already has a chunk missing out of it's screen, a bad fan, broken onboard camera, a processor that can't seem to go above half power anymore, broken hinges, and several sections where the paint has worn off. i doubt i'd notice even more damage.

WYR cause the world to go back to using those brick shaped 'mobile' phones the size of briefcases?

or, cause the world to go back to using 5.25in floppy disks as their main storage media?
