Here's a dilemma:
Would you rather be rich, or stupid?
(, Tue 5 Jul 2005, 10:46, archived)
Stupidly rich?
Yay.

Rich people are almost invariably stupid,
and ugly to boot. Not much of a choice, really.

I'd like to see the statistics
to back that claim up.

Everyone who drives an expensive car,
looks like they were hit in the face by the shovel of ugliness. Feel free to test this out for yourself.
I've yet to test my theory that monied sorts couldn't find their way out of an empty, darkened room with a glow in the dark door, but I'd put money on the results.

This is true
I used to drive expensive cars, and I am considered ugly even by b3tan standards.

rich obviously :P

Of course
but perhaps that's the wrong answer, and we're all too stupid to see it?

Stupid.
Or rich.
Either way I'd like to have the ability to turn invisible or turn my poo invisible.

You win
although I hope you never get that ability.

I used to be rich
now I am just plain stupid.
I was happier in some ways rich, but have found happiness with a family and friends (when the money no longer filled the second swimming pool) that I never had or think I could have had while rich.

I think there's a message for us all there.

Somewhere.

(You kept your money in a second swimming pool like Scrooge McDuck?)

did you mean that
or "rich and stupid, or clever and poor?"

... if you did, I think I'll be rich cheers.. otherwise clever and poor.

How is that a dilemma?

(, Tue 5 Jul 2005, 10:52, archived)
I'm questioning the very foundations
of your value system.
(, Tue 5 Jul 2005, 10:57, archived)
I'd rather be rich.
Being rich is a good thing, being stupid is a bad thing.

Being rich can lead to bad things for yourself and other people, but only if you're stupid as well.

Rich
I couldn't part with my intellect for anything ;)

Here's another one:

Would you like to be an evil criminal mastermind or dead?
