Directions

Get together with a group of friends and take turns asking each other the questions above. If you have extra time try to come up with your own questions.

Alternatives

• Have everyone answer secretly and show the tally. (Example 2 said... and 3 said...). Then try to guess who answered which way.
• If you don't want to come up with your own list, or you don't like the ones above, you can find a lot more questions with a Google search for "would you rather".(WARNING: many of those sites are full of adult-themed and often gross scenarios).
• There are some boardgames based on this activity: e.g. Zobmondo - Classic Would You Rather and Justin & Dave's Awesome Would You Rather.
• Terrible Choices is a social gaming approach with only bad choices (WARNING: this site is full of adult-themed and often gross scenarios).
• Would You Rather Jokes is a social gaming approach using Twitter.
• For those of you in the U.K. try "Would you prefer".
