Would you rather:

(A) Agree to an arranged marriage with someone you know?

OR

(B) Agree to a marry someone based on just a photograph; never having met or spoken to them?

Neither, both are against my definition of marriage. :)

In my humble opinion, marriage means love, a special bond between soul-mates, it is not an agreement nor a deal to be made, that's a contract. :)

Given the choices, I'd pick A.

If those are my only choices and the person I know seems ok, I'd marry the one I know.

The old saying goes, the devil you know is better than the devil you don't know.

Would you rather never being able to lie or never be able to tell the truth?

Wow, neither one is good! Never able to lie I guess. But there are times when lying, or rather the absence of truth, is a better way to go. Case in point: My mother has a terminal illness. Whenever I talk to some members of my family about it I have to use either very general terms or make things seem less drastic than they are, otherwise arguments ensue. If all I could do is tell the absolute truth... well it would not be good.

Truth, assuming you can embellish it if necessary, is always the best way to go. Lying almost always leads to disaster in the long run.

Perhaps you haven't seen this:


I believe that movie's message was that in today's society lying is so accepted and/or common that it became intertwined with many people's lives and being unable to lie would ruin one's life. :)

The way I get it, don't depend on lying so you don't become like him. :D


Maybe its because I really hate lying, but in my humble opinion, even if there are some downsides to not being able to tell a lie, it is still far better than not be able to say the truth. :)

Maybe I did, it was a long, long time since I watched that movie! :eek:

But that is what came to my mind after watching the clip. :)

B - I hate everyone I know and I think I would feel less guilty about strangling a hot stranger if she burnt the dinner one too many times.:p

Just kidding, A - definitely, you never know what kind of nut job is smiling at you in that photo!

Would you rather never being able to lie or never be able to tell the truth?

Never be able to lie, I can tell the truth in very imaginative ways. I don't think you have to lie to people, you can tell the truth and still be tactful so as not to completely destroy peoples feelings.

Would you stick your head in a bucket of pig sh*t or smoke Bill Clinton cigar while banging Nancy Pelosi.

I would take the bucket.

^Haha, as both as so appealing sounding, I'd also opt for the bucket of Nancy Pelosi :rolleyes:

Okay, if I have to pick one or the other....

Arranged marriage to someone I know. At least I know something to build on, other than how they look.

Never lie. I agree that it can be presented in a multitude of ways that doesn't have to be brutal. I despise lying. Better to say nothing than deceive someone.

And the last one...wow....I guess the bucket sounds like the "best" choice.

All of a sudden, I'm not hungry for lunch.:rolleyes:
