Tuesday is Chooseday

1. Would you rather: find out that elvis presley really is alive OR find out that the apollo moon landing was a hoax?
Elvis lives!

2. unknowingly eat a roach, but find out later OR knowingly eat dog meat?
Dog meat. I don't want to think about what I could get from a roach or what it would do to my allergies.

3. be able to read people's minds OR change people's minds to the complete opposite of their current beliefs?
As long as I can turn the mind-reading on & off I'll take it. Otherwise I'd take the change ability and never use it.

4. have incriminating photos of you and a goat be circulated around the internet OR get severe acne around your face and neck?
I'll take the goat, thank you.

It's confirmed!
