Synopsis

In an hysterical blend of absurdity, wit, and pop culture comes Would You Rather..., a collection of laugh-out-loud funny, irreverent and irresistibly thought-provoking dilemmas. Readers are stumped with questions like:

-Would you rather watch a porn movie with your parents, or watch a porn movie starring your parents?
-Would you rather fight Mike Tyson, or talk like him?
-Would you rather live in a world where at the end of a rainbow, there really was a pot of gold, or where at the end of a rainbow there were 500 cases of Pabst Blue Ribbon?

The over 200 hilarious questions ask readers to look deep within themselves and choose between two equally undesirable—or desirable—options. Filled with twisted insights and hip pop culture references, Would You Rather... is brain candy to tempt the most finicky palate.

About this title

Review

Would you rather give blood or read Hamlet? Fight Mike Tyson or talk like him? For fans of juvenile humor, Would You Rather...? is the ne plus ultra of ridiculous dilemmas. Created by toy developer David Gomberg and "functional performance artist" Justin Heimberg, this collection of more than 200 preposterous predicaments covers everything from sex and supernatural powers to utopian worlds and nasty curses. Whether read alone or with a group of friends, Would You Rather...? will have you laughing out loud as you debate the eternal questions of life, like: "Would you rather live in a world where Afros were mandatory for members of Congress or where it was legal, in fact encouraged, to crucify mimes?" --Rebekah Warren
