Hi, I'm Melody and I'm Kandi, and you're listening to Quirks, Bumps and Bruises. So on this edition of Quirks, Bumps and Bruises, Kandi and I absolutely love the game. Would you Rather? Because, first of all, it's fun. Second of all, it makes you think.
Speaker 2:Because both questions of would you rather, are pretty equal and horrible.
Speaker 1:That's a great way to put it, yes. So I'm going to ask you one, candy Would you rather it be hot all the time or cold all the time? Cold all the time? I could have guessed that for you. How about you? I may? Would say hot, yeah, because when you're cold it's just to the bone. But when you're hot, you're hot. That's what they usually say about me. When you're not, you're not. So this is a fun one for you, especially, candy. Would you rather not be able to stop dancing, or not?
Speaker 2:stop singing, dancing, because I would lose so much weight.
Speaker 1:But the singing part of it. You know, we just have a song in our heart all the time, candy, we do All right, this is going to put the test to you right here, candy. Would you rather be poor, with a lot of great, great friends, or rich and have no friends?
Speaker 2:How poor are we talking?
Speaker 1:I don't know, but you've got a lot of friends around you, but you just don't have any money. Are they poor Candy? Answer the question.
Speaker 2:I don't have any money. Are they poor? I can't answer the question, I don't know. I mean, I I don't want to be poor. But okay, melody, would you rather have constant dry eyes or a constant runny nose?
Speaker 1:well, I already have constant dry eyes, so there you go with that.
Speaker 2:Would you rather have super sensitive taste or super sensitive hearing?
Speaker 1:Oh, taste. That means that I could just taste lots of great stuff, right, look at me. I think you know the answer to that question.
Speaker 2:Would you rather never lose your phone again, or never lose your keys again?
Speaker 1:Oh, I don't want to lose my keys, because then I can't go anywhere. Can?
Speaker 2:we almost drive with our phones. Now, I mean, really, you're probably gonna be able to start your car and drive it with your phone sometimes I want my phone to be lost forever.
Speaker 1:Amen, you know what I'm saying. So, yes, so, candy, would you rather have a song of your choice play repeatedly 24 hours a day, but it's your choice of the song. Or have songs that you have no control over play 24 hours a day, but it's your choice of the song. Or have songs that you have no control over play 24 hours a day? Number one, so you would like to have just one song, if I could choose it, and what?
Speaker 2:would that redeem legacy five just over and over 24 hours a day?
Speaker 1:I just don't think I could deal with that. But you never know what you're gonna get now, I know, but variety is the spice of life. So, candy, would you rather be completely alone for five years? No, I don't know. You better think about that. It sounds good sometimes. Or constantly be surrounded by people and never alone for five years. You have somebody around you constantly. For five years, for the next five years years, there's somebody attached to you, I think.
Speaker 2:I'd have to do that. I'm not a loner. I don't work well by myself.
Speaker 1:I believe I'd do the alone thing, would you? And I'm a people person, I know, but here lately, the peopling I'm about out of peopling, would you rather lose all of your money and valuables, or all the pictures that you've ever?
Speaker 1:taken Money and valuables. I don't want to lose my pictures. Yeah, I have a plan. If there's ever a fire or anything, I know like what I'm grabbing. I mean I know because, look back, I'm older, so I still have photo albums. It isn't like I can go to my computer and find them all day, although for the last what 10 years I've got tons of pictures. Oh right, but I had photo albums of my kids when they and I haven't put them digitally on anything. You need to do it, I do need to do it, but as for now, if there's a fire, I'm grabbing my pictures before I grab my husband. I'm just saying so, candy, would you rather eat your favorite meal for every meal? Okay, let me, let me do it this way. What's your favorite meal? If you could choose a favorite meal right now, what would it be good, a really good spaghetti, okay. So would you rather eat spaghetti every single meal breakfast, lunch and dinner for the rest of your life, or never be able to eat it again for as long as you live?
Speaker 2:I'm gonna get tired of it, so I'm gonna have to go with, never eat it again.
Speaker 1:I would do that too, like I love shrimp and pasta probably my favorite meal, right man but I don't want to eat that every day.
Speaker 2:Three meals no would you rather be locked in a room for a week that is constantly dark or a room for a week that is constantly bright?
Speaker 1:I don't like the dark. Yeah, the dark is dark, can't see the spiders. But the light you're not going to be able to sleep. I would still say light, definitely light. Okay.
Speaker 2:Would you rather know when you're going to die oh my goodness. Or would you rather know how you're going to die? Oh my goodness.
Speaker 1:Okay, rather know how you're gonna die, oh my goodness. Okay, let's talk through this. So would you rather know when the like the exact day? Yeah, you would know like you're going, I don't want to know that.
Speaker 2:Or, but would you rather know how you're going to die?
Speaker 1:I think if I had to choose, I would like to know how. Really, yeah, I mean because if you know the exact day, like what if it's next tuesday?
Speaker 2:and what if it's in like 60 years?
Speaker 1:you know, I'm ready to see jesus and I this world yeah, I think I would read yeah, the second one for sure. So, candy, you are always talking about getting older and stuff like that. So would you rather wake up with wrinkles that straighten out throughout the day, kind of like the wrinkles on my CPAP they straighten out throughout the day, yeah. Or would you rather wake up with really good skin that gets wrinkly as the day goes on? So either you wake up with wrinkles and they get better throughout the day, or you wake up with great skin and the wrinkles get worse throughout the day I think I would like to wake up with really good skin and then just be in by the time my wrinkles set in I knew you were gonna say that yeah, I know you so well that I knew that was gonna be your reasoning.
Speaker 2:I knew that like cinderella had to be a certain time before you know. Turn back into a pumpkin.
Speaker 1:Would you rather never have to get a haircut again or never have to do laundry again, because your clothes are always clean, no matter laundry? Well, you have a thing about laundry anyway, y'all, I know. Let's just do a little time out. Let's just do a little side rabbit trail right here. So candy loves to do laundry and I have been on vacations with candy. I have been on vacations with Candy. I have been on work trips with Candy. And when you go on these trips with Candy, I don't care if you're at a hotel, on a cruise ship or at a theme park. She is going to find where the laundromat is before she goes and does anything. Or you got to have clean clothes. I've never seen anything like it, I know.
Speaker 2:I have a problem.
Speaker 1:So, kendi, would you rather receive $100,000 today? Yes, yes, I don't know, you may like this alternative, okay, or $1 million 10 years from now. So $100,000 right now in your pocket, or in 10 years you're going to get a million. You better say the second, because you've got a child going to college. It's going to cost about a million dollars for your child to go to college in 10 years.
Speaker 2:We'll say the 10 million, 10 years.
Speaker 1:Okay, this is a great one and we can like spend a little time talking about this. Would you rather be able to fast forward your life or rewind it? Rewind it Totally. What would you do? I would say rewind it because I'd like to do some things differently, but if I fast forward, it.
Speaker 2:I'm going to be in heaven Because I'm very close. How fast will you?
Speaker 1:forward it. So I do love these would you rathers. But every time I hear the would you rather, I think about Would you like to swing on a star, carry moonbeams home in a jar and be better off than you are?
Speaker 2:Would you rather be a mule? So many questions.
Speaker 1:What was that? That is an old Bing Crosby song, really. So every time I hear would you rather? Because it has the would you rather at the end, I think about that. But I would say, if you need something fun to do at a party, you learn about people that way and it's so much fun.
Speaker 2:It is always fun. It takes the awkward out of any event. If you're just sitting there, nobody's talking. Yeah, you know what?
Speaker 1:Just bring out a would you rather question, and then you can decide do I really want this person as as a friend or not?
Speaker 2:by their answer. You'll always know.
Speaker 1:Would you like to swing?
