Would You Rather: 155 Extreme Dilemmas
Redacted by Adrien Blanc
Ever had that awkward moment at a party? You know, when the conversation totally dries up, everyone starts doom-scrolling on their phones, and the silence gets deafening. Yeah, we’ve all been there. It’s the worst.
But don't worry, I’ve got the fix. The good ol' game of "Would You Rather," but the hardcore version.
We aren't talking about boring questions like "Would you rather have chocolate or vanilla?" No, we're talking Extreme Would You Rather. The kind of questions that make you seriously overthink, gross you out a little, or spark three-hour debates about whether you could take a giant teddy bear in a fight.
Honestly, it's the best way to see who your friends really are (and who has the most twisted mind). Ready to torture your brain? Alright, let's get into it.
