How would you spend 10 years in a cellar with a 10 million dollar reward

Wow, you're all taking so good care of your well-being with all the medical cares, sunlight, hygiene products etc..

That's 29. I tried to squeeze the internet in, but I had to sacrifice too much. I suppose I should throw in the Pool Table since it's the only thing worth 1 point.

The somewhat sad part... is that I don't think my life would be that much different under those conditions.

Cool! My list was pretty similar, except that I picked the tv with cable channels instead of the pc without internet. Only problem would be taking notes, to make sure all the time spent reading books would serve a purpose. But I could improvise, I guess.

I think that puts you over your allotted points.


If I were a guy I'd take the 18 year old too. Why was a female the only option???? I want to go back and trade back for that, subbing in a male. That way I can have babies.

It puts me right at forty. Who needs ten million dollars when I have that?


Though it raises questions.... do I get a new eighteen year old yearly? On their birthday, by some magic, are they disintegrated and I am warped a new one?


Or will they some day be twenty-eight?

 

[AphroditeGoneAwry]

It would say if you get upgrades, as in the computer system.


Too bad.


But think of the babies you will have!!!

 

[WALMART]

No condoms D:


Fuck that, then. Give me three sets of unlimited drugs and three sets of unlimited booze.

 

[AphroditeGoneAwry]

I thought you'd say just have them installed with a copper IUD first.

 

[WALMART]

I thought about it, and it would be quite nice. But I don't see it on the list, and since we are being so stringent regarding the rules....


Throw in the IUD and we're back on.

I hate IUD's. But I'm down with not having any more bio children, if that's God's Plan.


I think foster mother would be cool, however.

You could construct a contraceptive in the workshop

I noticed that, too. However, even if I wasn't in a committed monogamous relationship, I would not want an eighteen year old guy. Not only would he be less than half my age, and younger than some of my kids (which to me would be skeevy) but I assume he'd be hanging around *all* the time, because he's a person and all. So in addition to sex that would most likely involve a lack of skill and premature ejaculation, I'd have to listen to him whine about being bored. That would upgrade the situation from prison to a circle of hell.

Perhaps you girls should pick Barry Bonds - he's quite affordable.

Give it 3 months without seeing any male and he'll start looking very attractive.

Other than "gun", "booze & drugs" and "Barry Bonds" (?!?), I think that most of these have at least some appeal... but would I do this? Absolutely. Even after taxes, I'd come out of this in 10 years, age 51, with more than enough to retire. And I'd do it without having to work/answer to anyone. Sure, I'd probably come out of it a little screwed up, but I'm that anyway . Here's my list:

Full Kitchen w/top-of-the-line ingredients (6 points - I have a TON of time on my hands... why not cook for myself?)
Desktop Computer (6 points)
Video Game Library (4 points)
Book Library (4 points)
Movie / TV Library (4 points)
Cell Phone (3 points)

and

Mayo Clinic (3 points)

or

Garden/Greenhouse (2 points) + Pool Table (1 point)

Total = 30 points


The only thing here that's an obvious miss is "internet". But without streaming/downloading, 16 points is *way* too big a sacrifice. If it were 10 points (more reasonable), I'd have taken it. I don't really want to spend points on the cell phone, but it's the only other way (other than the internet) to communicate, and even a shut-in like me would go mad without that. Chatting with family/friends once a week would be a sanity-saver. Having absolutely no medical care at all would suck - bad. So I picked "Mayo Clinic doctors" -- but if basic medical care is included, I'd swap that out for the greenhouse/pool table (who needs a skylight when you can go hang out with a book in your greenhouse?). The workout center was also a last-minute cancel - I could have worked it in with a little playing around (ditch the pool table, etc.) to fit into 35 points, but 5 million is a lot. You can give yourself a fantastic workout without equipment... so I'd just do that instead.

It occurs to me that I have taken this far too seriously...

 

[Lexicon]

I don't think that'd be worth it.

^^ That.

My time/freedom are more valuable, by far.

I had to wiki him. It doesn't mention much about his educational background and it mentions steroid use. Considering the side effects of steroids, he might very well be the worst of both worlds.

Does it help that he was infamous for being a world-class jerk even before the steroids?
