You have a magic button that will deposit $10,000 into your checking account but there is a 5% chance that an elevator cable snaps somewhere in the world. Are you pressing the button? If so, how many times?

Rules:

  • The $10,000 is not taxed.
  • No one ever comes looking for it or audits you.
  • The magic button cannot be traded to someone else or destroyed if you chose to accept this offer. You are free to press it as often or as little as you want though, but it's yours for life afterwards.
  • If you press it there is a 5% chance that a random elevator somewhere in the world suddenly fails, the support cable(s) snaps, and it falls.
  • The people inside can survive if the fall is short enough and walk away with minor bumps, cuts, bruises, etc. The fall may also occur from 30 floors up. It's 100% random.
  • I don't know how many types of elevators their are in the world but I'm talking strictly building elevators that people ride.

Are you using the button?

If so - how many times?

Is $10,000 worth the risk and potential guilt to follow?

You get $1,000 extra a day deposited into your checking account for life but Rob Schneider has to narrate everything you do all day long.

The rules:

  • $1,000 deposited into your checking account every single day for the rest of your life once you accept the deal.
  • It is not taxed and no one ever audits you or comes asking about the money.
  • Once you accept the deal you CANNOT back out.
  • You CANNOT mute Rob Schneider.
  • No one else hears Rob Schneider - it's only you.
  • He narrates EVERYTHING including showers, bathroom breaks, love making, etc.
  • You do not get any breaks throughout the day.
  • The narration is inside your head so you can't use headphones or ear plugs to mute him out as a work around.
  • You can choose to have him do one of his character impressions, or just normal Rob Schneider. That part is completely up to you.

Are you taking the money?

$365,000 extra a year would solve a lot of problems.

Took six tries but I finally beat the E4 on Brilliant Diamond

I absolutely hate the move Earthquake. It's a one shot KO for four of the six Pokémon on my team. Took me SIX different tries but I finally finished the E4 on Brilliant Diamond.

I loaded up Honchkrow on X-special defense, X-speeds, X-attcks, and used all six double teams and screech on Cynthia and was able to beat all six of them without an issue. Adding double team on my last start over made the difference this time as nothing was able to land anything after that.

Is the post game any good?

Would you rather wake up tomorrow with your IQ 60-points higher but you're now 100% broke OR you wake up with $10 million in your bank account but your IQ is 40-points lower?

You wake up tomorrow and your IQ is 60 points higher but you're now flat broke. Your bank account and savings are zero. Your retirement, pension, Roth IRA, etc. are zero. If you have a wife or significant other then they're also now broke as well. Even your wallet or purse are void of cash if it was there yesterday.

Everything else about your life is the same though.

Your job, significant other, kids, etc.

It's up to you to get out of your current situation.

OR ....

You're waking up tomorrow with $10 million in your bank account. The money is not taxed and no one ever comes looking for it or audits you, but your IQ is now 40-points lower.

You receive a bonus check in the mail of $5,000 every week but you HAVE to give up either wearing underwear or deodorant to collect the money. What are you picking?

Rules:

  • The money is free. No taxes are paid.
  • No one ever comes asking for it or audits you.
  • $5,000 check in the mail every week on Friday.
  • Whatever route you pick is binding for life.
  • You CANNOT switch routes later after you pick one.

  • You CANNOT apply anything to your arm pits outside of the shower where you would just wash them with soap.

EDIT: Touching on this so it's not asked a hundred times. You CANNOT give up both for $10,000. I'm going to leave the other discovered loopholes alone though.

Please read over the rules.

Maybe a dumb place to post this but I'm in need of an anniversary weekend get away idea.

Wife and I are local to Columbus and have our ten year anniversary in October.

Brother is taking our kids for a weekend to let us get away.

I'm looking for some ideas of places to go within a 2-3 hour drive.

Would like to stay some place super nice, ideally with a private hot tub or inside jacuzzi tub, and would like it to be some place with a lot of good bars, restaurants and shopping around.

We ARE NOT really interested in a cabin.

We've done cabins a bunch of times over the last ten years. (at least 6-7 times already).

Cleveland is possible, Cincinnati is possible, Indianapolis is possible, and hell even somewhere around central Columbus might be fine, but I'm just wondering if perhaps anyone has any "under the radar" suggestions of some spots that maybe I've never heard of before to check out.

Thanks in advance.

What are three dream games you would love to see for week zero if you were in charge of making college football schedules?

Previous years playoff teams CANNOT be included.

What are three games you would book to see in week zero to get the new season kicked off the right way? The three timeslots are:

  • 12:00pm slot on FOX
  • 4:00pm slot on ABC
  • 8:00pm slot on ESPN/ABC

Here are mine.

  • Utah at Penn State in the 12:00pm slot.
  • USC vs. Clemson in the 4:00pm slot. (Neutral site game).
  • Notre Dame at Tennessee in the 8:00pm slot.

Utah at Penn State just feels like a random and fun defensive slug fest. I'm interested in seeing how the team looks under Matt Campbell. This would be a fun matchup.

USC and Clemson are two "desperate to win now and right the ship" teams, and watching them do battle with each other could be a lot of fun. They haven't played each other since 1966 either, which is wild. This feels like a great game to have at Jerry World in Dallas.

I love the Tennessee stadium when it's full and rocking. There would be no better way to kickoff the college season than to see it bumping against a big time opponent.

Previous years playoff teams CANNOT be included.

What three games would YOU want?

Gritty and well paced crime dramas with a touch of modern day western elements sprinkled in.

The Wife and I are looking for some well paced, well acted, gritty crime dramas and bonus points if it looks and feels like a modern day western to any extent.

Here are some examples of movies we've already seen that I'm referring to.

  • No Country for Old Men
  • Nocturnal Animals
  • Hell or High Water
  • The Last Stop in Yuma County
  • Sicario
  • Traffic
  • Blue Ruin
  • Eddington
  • The Counselor

Is there anything not mentioned here that is a must watch?

No old time wild wild west style suggestions please.

I'm a big fan of 3:10 to Yuma, Tombstone, and Djanjo Unchained but I think my wife prefers something that feels more present day than an old wild wild west movie.

Thanks in advance everyone. Much appreciated.

You get $50 every time you go to the bathroom but you aren't allowed to wash your hands for at least TWO HOURS afterwards. This applies to EVERY bathroom visit once you start. Is the money worth it to you?

Rules:

  1. The money is free and untaxed and no one ever asks you about it or comes looking for it.
  2. You CANNOT FAKE bathroom visits for extra money. You have to go #1 or #2. If you have to go into the bathroom to vomit that counts as well. Trips to the bathroom to adjust your makeup, do drugs, or just fart DO NOT count.
  3. Showers and baths at home or at public places DO NOT get you money.
  4. No matter what you do in the bathroom you cannot wash your hands for at least two hours afterwards.
  5. If you're at home you CAN take a shower after going #1 or #2 as a loophole, but the rule still applies, you cannot just simply wash your hands for at least two hours.
  6. You CANNOT use cloths, towels, clothes, hand sanitizer or wipes of ANY KIND to clean your hands after using the bathroom for at least two hours.
  7. If you accidently get #2 on your hands during a bathroom visit you're stuck. You cannot clean it off for at least two hours no matter where you are.
  8. Once you accept this deal it applies to EVERY future bathroom visit. You don't get to pick and choose based on your location or situation.
  9. You can use a bidet at home but you CANNOT have a portable one that you take with you. If you visit a place with a bidet already installed, then you're okay, but no mini-ones or portable ones are allowed at all in this scenario.
  10. This deal is binding for life. You CANNOT opt out at any point.

Are you making this deal?

Is the $50 a visit worth it?

Could you do this for the rest of your life?

Loopholes are encouraged but please read the rules carefully.

Rules:

  • Your current significant other now looks like Andy Dick in the face. The rest of their body looks the exact same. Gender and other physical features DO NOT change.
  • This includes current and all future significant others. All future relationships will result in your significant other looking and sounding like Andy Dick.
  • Your significant other now audibly sounds like Andy Dick as well.
  • Their personality, thoughts, feelings, memories, emotions, etc. DO NOT change. It's only their face, hair and voice to emulate Andy Dick.
  • You are free to make love with the lights off if you wish.
  • Everyone else in the world still sees and hears your significant other normally. It's only you who sees and hears Andy Dick.
  • It has to be a real and emotional/physical relationship. Not a handshake agreement with someone to split the money while just living together. Kissing, dates, intimacy has to be involved at least to some extent here.
  • If you split up with your significant other their looks return to normal.
  • The $1,000 per day is free, untaxed, and no one ever audits you or comes looking for it. You can save and spend it however you want.
  • If you split up from the significant other you stop getting the free money until you start dating someone else again. Same rule goes for if your significant other leaves you, passes away, etc. You stop getting the money until you're in a new relationship.
  • One off dates with random's you meet post relationship will look normal until the second you kiss them or get physical with them in any capacity and then they look and sound like Andy Dick immediately.
  • You CANNOT purposely divorce your significant other as a loophole to get them looking normal again only to get back together later. If you do this the free money STOPS and the significant other still goes back to looking like Andy Dick again.

Could you handle this change for the rest of your life for $7,000 extra a week?

That's $365,000 extra a year.*

Could you kiss and be intimate with Andy Dick for the rest of your life?

Loopholes are encouraged here, though I feel pretty good about the bases I've covered.

Your current salary gets tripled but you HAVE to take a 90 minute bath EVERY SINGLE WORKDAY MORNING in a bathtub full of cottage cheese while watching Legally Blonde the movie on a nearby television. Are you taking this deal?

Rules are simple:

  • Your current salary gets tripled if you agree to this.
  • No sleeping in the bathtub.
  • No eating the cottage cheese.
  • No playing on your phone.
  • You have to watch the movie.
  • You have to be naked as if it's a real bath.
  • The rest of your day is normal.
  • The day is still 24-hours, this isn't a magic extra 90-minutes, you have to plan for this bath every single morning.
  • If you work second shift, or night shift, you still have to take the bath before work.
  • You get the weekends off and DO NOT have to bathe.
  • The cottage cheese magically appears, and vanishes afterwards. No buying cottage cheese or cleaning it up afterwards. Sorry for not specifying this originally.
  • Future raises are also tripled.

I think I've covered all my bases here with questions and loopholes.

Could you stomach it?

Would you be able to keep your sanity doing this every day for months, years or even decades?

Rules:

  1. You just have to touch a book with one finger and your brain automatically absorbs everything in the book seamlessly.
  2. You understand the content, can explain it back to someone, and retain it forever.
  3. New books do not push out other knowledge you have already.
  4. Your brain has infinite learning space.
  5. However for each book you touch you lose 2-hours off your life.
  6. Also for each book you touch a random person at a random fast food restaurant gets their order completely screwed up and it ruins their day. Can you live with that guilt?

EDIT NEW RULE: .... you can use an e-Reader to read a book for fun and keep the 2-hours, but if you physically touch ANY book at all, you absorb the knowledge and lose the 2-hours and screw up someone's food order.

The food order thing has nothing to do with the books and the learning, I just thought this would be a funny quip to add into the game. If you laughed while reading this then it did its job.

How many books would you read?

Any specific ones?

The Kingdom - 2007.

This movie is great from start to finish IMO.

Tense, well paced, well acted, great cast, and the final 20-25 minutes of the movie are just hold your breath incredible. One of the better finales to a movie I've ever seen.

I feel like this one doesn't get the roses it deserves.

Anyone else agree?

Very specific discussion here revolving around three specific action movies.

I have a friend who likes John Wick and Polar, but did not like Sisu cause he claims it was too over the top and way too unrealistic.

I argue that all three of them are the same exact movies.

  • Cheesy action.
  • Classic revenge element(s) to each movie.
  • Complete suspension of realism and common sense.
  • One man army doing ridiculous things.
  • Worthless henchmen and police everywhere.
  • Over the top blood and gore.

I've seen the first three John Wick movies, I've seen Sisu, and yesterday I watched Polar for the very first time. I really enjoyed it. To me it felt like John Wick and Smokin' Aces had a baby and it was Polar. Fun action, over the top kills and gore, and *chefs kiss* on the completely unnecessary and irrelevant yet fun nudity.

I enjoy all three of them, but will argue that they're all basically the same movie.

What does everyone else think?

I feel like these three movies are the exact same thing.
