Hyper-theticals.

So my friend had picked up this game the other day and it's pretty funny. It's just really random, out there scenarios that you will *hopefully* never find yourself in, but a kind of WWYD sorta thing.

One of my favorites was this one...

You are the editor of the NY Times. Coincidentally, 3 extraordinary things happen in one day. First, Sasquatch is taken into captivity in the Pacific Northwest. Second, there is definitive scientific proof that the Loch Ness monster does in fact exist. Third, the President of the US discovers that he may possibly have cancer and will be going in for a biopsy that afternoon. Keeping in mind your audience, which would be the front page, above the fold headline?

Re: Hyper-theticals.

Maybe you need to be a little drunk to play.

You should've seen the intense debate this started in my living room.

I thought two people were going to throw down.

ETA: Personally, I said Sasquatch. He's like a pseudo-human. He might possibly be from the same evolutionary chain. Maybe there's more of him! Eff the president's biopsy, that's not news. And he probably wouldn't tell us if he was about to have one.

Re: Hyper-theticals.

I went with the Lochness Monster - would be cool to put all the myths to rest. But sasquatch is good too! I could see how a drunken debate could break out with this game - and could be quite comical to watch and recap the next day.

Re: Hyper-theticals.

The serious side of me votes biopsy. Above-the-fold in the NYT is no joke!

But the @sshole side of me would be tempted to put either of the other two on there, and if I had that kind of power...I just might!

Re: Hyper-theticals.

I said the president thing because it's the NY Times.

If it was the post or daily news, probably Loch Ness.

Re: Hyper-theticals.

I picked Sasquatch...only because they have him in custody and its a for sure thing! The presidents cancer is not proven...Yet!

Re: Hyper-theticals.

i said sasquach too ... sorry but a biopsy is not that interesting ... you can't even put pictures or anything (everyone already knows what the pres looks like!)

a very close second choice was loch ness but i think more people would care to SEE bigfoot
