if i chose six, i wouldnt need any of the others.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

2,5 & 9. Plus money always makes me happy so I get 6 for free.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

2, 5, and 9 for me

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I choose 5 and 9. I really have no interest in any of the others.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

After 9 you can just buy all the others or the process described

#4 three times. The rest seem fleeting (money) or attainable through hard work (strength). Unlike others in these comments, I think being happy constantly would be its own type of hell.

But being tall is like being attractive. It is life on easy mode. As a slightly-less-than-average-height person an extra 6 inches would probably be the most permanent, positive impact any of these would have.

5, 6, 9. I would take 5 as "emotional/mentally"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

My issue with 6 is that it feels like a monkey paw. There are times we shouldn't be happy, like tragedies happening to others, deaths ,etc. While being overall happy in life sounds great, always happy sounds like a cognitive issue.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You could do that with any of them. Super strong? Crushes friends when trying to hug them, etc.

9,9,6 with lots of money causes sadness

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

2, 5, 9

I would be so happy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Noy choosing 5 and 6 is plain stupid. While always being happy probably means some social issues, these can be mitigated by learning to fake sadness. And super strength is obviously super useful.

I'm assuming this isn't a genie moment where super strength means you destroy everything because you don't control it or whatever.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

4, 5, 9.

4 because while the process might be painful, aside from the process it's not an extreme change. And because I needed to pick 3 and only 3 options.

5 because that super strength would certainly come in handy if it's controllable. It would suck if everything gets absolutely crushed by accident the moment you attempt to interact with it.

9 because why the hell not. You can't be happy all the time, and the rest of the options seem to be a net negative. So at least being able to live comfortably or account for #5 would be okay

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

2, 6, 9. Health, happiness, comfortable life.

1 is the monkey's paw answer and a trap. Fat is necessary for survival. Fats literally make up the outside of every cell in your body.

2 is still dangerous, because it might just be tapeworm eggs.

Is 3 just a servant who shops for you? Or is it just that you are no longer addicted to compulsive shopping?

4 Will cause you the most agonizing pain of your life as virtually every bone and muscle gets ripped apart and re-knit, and as someone who's 6'4, it has its upsides, but having literally everything made for people shorter than you REALLY sucks, from doorways and light fixtures, even to rollercoasters which nearly remove your legs because of awful design (or just won't close over your shoulders)

5 is nice. Go with 5. It'll be painful, but potentially worth it in a pinch, as long as it also grants you control of that strength.

6 is another trap, since small amounts of stress are actually really important, and in order to be constantly happy, your brain would lose the ability to feel it unless it continually increased the dopamine drip. Eventually, you would kill for the ability to stop.

7 I mean, sure, if that's what you want. Would be nice to know what kind of followers? Are they going to be religious and try to pull a Life of Brian on you?

8 is the worst, because you have no control over the extent of the memory wipe. This is existentially terrifying

9 is the safest, but then you go and read that post about why winning the lottery means you're fucked.

The surefire safest calls are probably 9, 7, and 3, since they wouldn't actually affect your body, unless you're the kind of person who likes playing roulette with the sort of pills you get for free on the street.

2 would eventually kill you, just more slowly than 1. Unless you never forget to eat and are always able to.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How. Two is just don’t gain weight. It doesn’t say anything about losing weight or about healthy nutrition. For those of us with a tendency to gain, this is all positive.

My most pressing health concern under my control is my weight. As an adult already overweight, I would be very happy to at least never weigh more than I do now

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Check your weight in the morning then later in the day. It always fluctuates, with your overnight fast/ not drinking water making you lose some weight if you couldn't gain any but could still lose weight, you'd eventually wither away.

Umm well i didn't need the 1 and 2 and 3 so i was about to take 7 9 5 but after seeing that i am scared to even choices anything

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

1 already covers 2, and I have enough of 6. Happy all the time would probably turn me into an even lazier person. A little concern now and then keeps me engaged with the world.

1, 5, 9. Health, strength, $$$$$.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

1 kills you because you need some fat to live

5, 6, 9. Come on now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

All you need is 6, the rest are just things you hope will make you happy.

5,6,9 only ones that really make a big difference in the grand scheme of things.

Being super strong would mean you’d likely end up doing a lot of physical activity for yourself and others, but it would also mean that your resting metabolism is significantly higher than baseline which handily takes care of the fat/weight problem.

Being taller would be fine I guess but, and I say this as a woman in the bottom 25% in height, it wouldn’t actually make any substantial difference in life, beyond being able to touch the floor in a standard chair.

Having a lot of money takes care of shopping without stopping it, As well as the followers thing (rich people are often famous, and if not they can dump some money into something to make them famous if they want) and I feel being happy over-rides forgetting your ex, cuz you wouldn’t feel bad about it.

Number six when something bad happens:

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well, 6 is just learning disability and 9 is a missing moral compass.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Depression is a learning disability?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Happiness is. Edit: Just accept being sad is fine or fix this shitty society.

I'll take the 6th, 3 times, intravenous
