2, 6 and 9.
9 would go towards building affordable housing in my area, which would make 6 happen.
2 just 'cause.
#2 is straight up torture. No matter how much you eat, you cannot stop losing weight. Your body no longer retains nutrients as it passes right through you
Depends on if the descriptions are jackass genie rules or not. If it's being genuine, it means you won't gain any excess weight beyond what's healthy. 1 and 3 seem like descriptions ripe for abuse as well.
1: Thinner!
3: You can no longer get things you need because you are unable to shop.
Excess weight is literally fat. That is how the body stores excess energy.
Not sure if you can live without any fat or not. Would have to look into it.
Yes I read it the first time. It's such a wild undefineable description that differs from person to person, even from environment to environment.
But you interpret the magical pill how you want. And I'll interpret it how I see fit. Deal?
Yes, that's why it's a magic pill. I already interpreted it two different ways - if it's granting the "wish" in the spirit of the clear intent from the phrasing, it won't be harmful, but if it's being literal, you're gonna die.
How is "no more gain weight" clear with intent
Okay, not just phrasing, but the overall presentation. Because these pills are presented as desirable things that you can only pick 3 of, it would make no sense for any of them to be negative.
Desirable is another incredibly subjective thing don't you think?
Most of these doesn't sound desirable at all to me.
You consider them desirable because you imagine their effect as something positive.
So I wouldn't say they're presented as desirable and positive as much as you want them to be.
If the effects aren't intended to be positive, why is it asking you to choose "only 3"? You can decide they're not positive to you, but they're clearly intended to be.
Why do people play "would you rather?" Why do people play "marry, fuck, kill"?
It's fun to mix and pick options and see what others would do.
If the game was "you get all positive and negative things ever in existence" well, that just wouldn't be very interesting now would it?
It says you can't gain weight. I'm already overweight, and about max for what I can be to keep my job (military) and not totally break down. So if "can't gain weight" means this is my max weight and no matter what I do I can't go past it, that makes a comfortable hard stop for future efforts toward dieting.
I see it from a biological perspective. Weight gain is derived from absorption of nutrients. You gain and lose weight all the time. As soon as your intestines no longer hold food you are no longer absorbing nutrients and therefore are losing weight from just existing.
I cannot argue with your interpretation of a made up magical pill. I just see it from another perspective.
Perhaps you would enjoy the no fat pill more since that's how the body store excess energy.
2 is slow death. Body always losing weight and you will no longer get it
You loved one dies, you feel happy. You are in logical despair but can't feel it.
I'll pass
You can be happy and sad at the same time. It doesn't say you can't be sad.
What number is that?
