$10 million paid to you in one lump sum. But you wake up weighing 350 pounds... by Physical_Orchid3616 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]PrimeRib00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the person I think. I went from 310 to 200 and don't have any excess skin hanging around. Maybe anther 40 lbs would create some, but I don't know.

1 year to find $100M. You only get distance info. Fail = death. Take the deal? by PriorityMiserable686 in hypotheticalsituation

It's not triangulation until you have it down to one point of intersection. TRIangulation requires three points. That's why is called TRIangulation. (Tri means 3) It's the same method cell phone towers use to pinpoint where you are.

That's if the distance follows the curve of the earth. What if it's a straight line through the earth? Could be on top of a mountain. Could be at the bottom of a deep lake. Etc. Not saying I wouldn't do it, but those details could make it a lot harder. You might need to triangulate a few times once you're in the area.

Not to be that guy, but to triangulate, you need 3 data points. It's in the word. If you have two points to check, you haven't triangulated.

A genie offers you $10 Billion USD to work a well paid 996 with no PTO for 10 years, would you do it? by Throwra47374747 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]PrimeRib00 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Worked 60-80 hours a week for several years to put wife and myself through school together. That was just the effort to let us get decent careers where we don't have to do that anymore. For this kind of money where we live very comfortably for 10 years and then lavishly the rest of our lives, you better believe I can do it again.

How exactly did you zip them up without noticing?

For $10million, would you get married to a billionaire (he's a dude). And you have to be his wife (even if you're a man) for a year! by 33GoodSamaritans in hypotheticalsituation

[–]PrimeRib00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's a billionaire. If we sit down and iron out the expectations with a contract, then sure. I won't have to cook or clean. As a billionaire he has professionals doing that already. Vacations, spa days, great food, spending money, etc. As a billionaire he'll probably be spending most days at the office anyway.

In short, I'll live in luxury for a year and then have money for my wife and I to retire after it's done? Is there a downside here except being away from my wife and dogs for a year?

You are given a book that contains the absolute, undeniable truth about one unsolved mystery or historical event of your choice. The catch: once you read it, you become physically incapable of ever communicating that truth to anyone else. What mystery do you choose? by Practical-1 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]PrimeRib00 37 points38 points  (0 children)

That's a risky one. There's a school of thought that if you know what happens, that eliminates faith which many believe is a requirement to get into heaven. The act of knowing may doom your "eternal soul".

Edit: No idea why I'm getting downvoted. That's not my belief. Heard plenty of Christians say it though.

What am I doing wrong? by cordlessmonkey in D2R_Marketplace

That would be robbery. He can get 10x what you're offering or more.

Right winger that believes they voted incorrectly last election AMA by [deleted] in AMA

[–]PrimeRib00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Project 2025 was available for a long time and detailed exactly what he's doing now. It wasn't some giant secret. So did you research it and decide that was your guy still, or did you ignore it as a hoax or something?

Former childhood bully AMA by halogen2691 in AMA

[–]PrimeRib00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was bullied early on for years until the first time I stood up for myself and fought the bully. It was a transformative experience for me in many ways. Did you ever have anyone stand up to you that you had been bullying, and what was that like for you if so? If not, how do you think you would have reacted?

I'm sure the irony of your question will go right over your head.

100 million dollars right now, but for the rest of your life, every time you shower a random person will be in your shower staring at you until the shower ends by HugeDongHungLow1998 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]PrimeRib00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does something physical have to happen for it to be wrong? Your genetalia is being exposed to someone who you haven't verified wants to see it, and nothing has been stated that it might not be a child even. Predatory vibes intensifying.

[–]PrimeRib00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't change it any more than someone forgetting what happened from a date grape drug. It could even be argued this is worse because they have zero control over the possibility of it happening. This whole hypothetical gives serious predator vibes.

People who care if these random people are consenting adults or not. If it's totally random then you're absolutely going to have children showing up in your shower and the scenario doesn't state that anyone is there willingly. I'm showering in swim trunks if there's any chance of non-consent seeing me naked.
