Yuna_Firerose 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2003 I saw this on PWSF so I thought I'd post it here. Question 1: If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion? Read the next question before looking at the answer for this one. Question 2: It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three leading candidates: Candidate A - Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologists. He's had two Mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day. Candidate B - He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening. Candidate C - He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife. Which of these candidates would be your choice? Decide first for the two questions, no peeking, then scroll down for the answer... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Candidate B is Winston Churchill. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Candidate C is Adolph Hitler. And, by the way, the answer to the abortion question: If you said yes, you just killed Beethoven. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest IDrinkRatsMilk Report post Posted May 4, 2003 See, it's always something. No politician in the world is good. Not one of them, anywhere, ever. You've got to go with the guy that's bad, but openly, cause at least you know what he's about and can deal with him. Don't go with the guy that looks good, cause you don't know what he's hiding.

Guest hardyz1 Report post Posted May 5, 2003 I'm having a flashback to four years ago when I first saw this. Man, have I really been on the Internet for six years? Time flies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest DrTom Report post Posted May 5, 2003 I elected Churchill and advised Beethoven's mother to be rid of him. Questionnaires like this are inherently silly and pointless, since the "bad" choices always end up good, and vice versa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted May 5, 2003 I think people who say these are silly are just bitter at being fooled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted May 5, 2003 ::bans Kotz:: No, I pretty much expected the SWERVE~! and still thought it was silly at the end. One of the reasons I elected Churchill (without knowing who it was when I made the choice) was because I knew the "perfect" candidate would turn out to be a jackass. Option B also seemed like a real person with flaws I could live with. In short, this questionnaire is ghey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JHawk Report post Posted May 5, 2003 Dr. Tom's using "ghey" now? Does that mean I'm the only one who isn't? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest My Eyebrow is on fire Report post Posted May 5, 2003 Dr. Tom's using "ghey" now? Does that mean I'm the only one who isn't? No you aren't. Ghey and gay are the same thing no matter how long and boring of an explanation they give. You spell it "ghey" or "gay" - you're still using an expression rooted in homophobia. I'm quite comfortable with offending people and see no need to justify it through gay spelling variations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ShooterJay Report post Posted May 5, 2003 Re: Hitler It's sort of a trick question on the last description because he didn't get married until the week before he died. I was thinking Candidate C was Bob Dole Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted May 5, 2003 I killed off Beethoven (bah he wasn't that great anyways ) and I elected Winston Churchill because I can relate to him. He was also manic depressive like I am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
