What would you not do even if offered 1 Million
July 17, 2012 at 6:08 am
Just a fun thread about things that scare the shit out of you that you would never do even if offered 1 million bucks. For me.

1. Bungee jumping
2. Sky diving
3. Walking down that narrow path at the Grand Canyon
4.Tightrope walking

Stuff like that.

Things I would do,

1. Shark cage, ONLY in a cage, not open water.
2. Wear a dog attack training suit
3. Eat a roasted insect of some sort

I think any sane compassionate person isn't going to hurt/murder someone for money. That should go into the category of DUH.

But I just though of another one.

I think there is some needle type building in Vegas that has a roller coaster at the top, HELL FUCKING NO! I love roller coasters, but not that high.

well, i'm scared of heights (bungee and skydive is fun, i'm talking standing on the edge of people's condo balcony kinda heights that freak me out). so, anything related to that would be huge to try to overcome for a mil. also, night cave diving scuba is likely outta the question. i don't want to have to follow the line or my air bubbles to know which way is up. jealous of anyone who does that tho b/c i love personal challenges.

btw, a million dollars isn't what it was 20yrs ago. so if we're talking about me disregarding person boundaries of mine, it would take a lot more than 1 mil.

I love how you draw the line at necrophilia.
My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true.
Man, in so far as he is not subject to natural forces, is free to work out his own destiny. The responsibility is his, and so is the opportunity.

I hate balconies above the 5th floor. But more than the balcony is the absurd height of the rail, which you could sit on or trip and flip over. My mom had an 8th floor condo one time, I went out on the balcony once, and never again. If I go to a hotel that is tall, I will pick one with no balconies just windows.

1. Kill someone

2. Kill an animal that is not meant and designated for food

3. You know what? Amend both of the above to physically harm.

4. Have sex with someone I didn't want to sleep with

5. Abandon my family

There are probably a lot more.

So far I've only heard one thing I definitely wouldn't do and two things I probably wouldn't do...unless there were other circumstances that made them less repulsive to me.

I would totally give someone a million dollars for a million dollars. I'm no worse off, and now I have a friend who is a millionaire.
