<p>Music</p>
<p>Lifelong torture or instant death?</p>
<p>Instant death (obviously..).</p>
<p>And on a less dire note: turkey or beef gravy?</p>
<p>music (especially music written while existentially depressed)</p>
<p>books, or books on tape</p>
<p>books, paperback for easy transportation.</p>
<p>da vinci code or rule of four? (a no brainer for the pton forum, but anyway)</p>
<p>da vinci code but I preferred angels & demons</p>
<p>cd & book or dvd on mini dvd player while on commuter train to work?</p>
<p>wow. I drive to work, so I don't think I'm qualified for answering this. But if I had to choose, I'd go with the CD and book, because a DVD on a train to work would be a hassle.</p>
<p>Integration by parts or integration by substitution?</p>
<p>Depends on the problem, but Integration by substitution, because Integration by parts can often include substitution.</p>
<p>Roller coasters that drop straight down or conventional ones on tracks that flip upside down?</p>
<p>ModestMouse: Yeah, and they had the Killers on last night. I don't really know what to think of it...</p>
<p>The conventional ones that flip upside down.</p>
<p>lowered drinking age or lowered voting age?</p>
<p>Lowered voting age for sure! The ones who care enough to take the initiative to vote are mature enough to make sound decisions. Then the outcome of a few presidential elections could have been quite different. Lower drinking age really isn't as wonderful as it's cracked up to be. Ask any European kid.</p>
<p>Sitting next to somebody on the airplane/in the movie theater/in any public place with seats close together and having that person be a nervous twitcher who takes up your arm rest or an incessant cougher/hocker.</p>
<p>Taking up arm rest. Coughing is one of my biggest pet peeves ever. I know that's really unreasonable, but nothing is more annoying than a hacking cough.</p>
<p>If you someone offered you $1,000 to quit CC FOREVER would you take it or not because you're too addicted?</p>
<p>Oh easy. I'd take it. </p>
<p>Although 1,000 is kind of LOW. ;)</p>
<p>Would you rather travel the world on a shoestring (like, having so little money you have to wait tables in Argentina) or make 150,000/year in a city at a desk job?</p>
<p>Travelling the world in any way sounds so romantic! Then again, if the desk job had a significant, positive impact, then the desktop job. I guess, just for fun, I'd go with the world. Then I could write a book about all my adventures, which would translate into desk job.</p>
<p>Second-hand cigarette smoke, or that screeching, excruciating nails on chalkboard combined with scraping styrofoam noise?</p>
<p>Second-hand cigarette smoke.</p>
<p>Sylvia Plath or Anne Sexton?</p>
<p>Sylvia Plath
Keats or Yeats?</p>
<p>Keats</p>
<p>a lot of stress or a lot of unhappiness?</p>
<p>lot of stress- unhappiness just sucks</p>
<p>moldy cheese or moldy salami</p>
<p>moldy cheese...don't they sell that?
Coffee or tea?</p>
<p>coffee</p>
<p>bricks or sand</p>
<p>Uh...sand? </p>
<p>Bungeejumping or skydiving?</p>
<p>skydiving</p>
<p>feathers or fur</p>
