Saturday Silliness



Okay...it's time for another
Would You Rather....Question!!
"Would you rather laugh when you should cry and cry when you should laugh
OR
never be able to do either?"
I know when I've done these in the past, some of you can't seem to decide which sounds like a good option...ahem, that is the point!!! Neither one is a good option! So, just try to pick the one you would RATHER live with!!
I would probably choose the second because it would offend less.

YEAH! I love the would you rather questions! We need another slumber party so we can do these more often! ;)
Since it seems that if you cry when you should laugh that means you will never laugh and I enjoy laughing and dont typically enjoy crying so I would choose "never be able to do either"

Fun, Rebekah!

Hmmm - this is hard. I have been in a few "serious" situations that are bad AND so sad and couldn't stop smiling (heard it's a defense mechanism. Anyway, it's a TERRIBLE feeling...I feel so terrible!!

So, my answer? Rather CRY when I should be LAUGHING!

i think i would rather cry when i should laugh and laugh when i should cry...simply because i think i would have too much pent up emotion if i wasn't able to do either and eventually, mostly likely go insane.

I just realized that I misunderstood the question. I was thinking there were three options:
1. laugh when you should cry
2. cry when you should laugh
3. never be able to do either
Anyway, I am not changing my answer but I noticed my comment didnt really make sense since you would laugh sometimes and I said you would never laugh...ok, I am tired it is 11:01, I need to go to bed :) night night!

I think I would rather cry when I should be laughing. You see...this has already happened to me a few times. In my defense the few times this has happened to me I was PREGNANT and it involved ICE CREAM. All I have to say is don't mess with a prego and her ice cream and she will not CRY (even if you think it is funny)!

Crying is very healing to my soul. :)

I would rather cry when I should laugh because people might just think I am a very emotional person or I was laughing so hard I was crying, which would be more acceptable than the reverse, I think. To not be able to do either is a terrible thing. There are people who live like that, due to serious emotional illness. It is very healing to be able to both laugh and cry - even if not always at the appropriate times! :-)

I too would rather cry when I should be laughing. To laugh when I should be crying sounds like it would create too many awkward occasions of offense.

Although, crying when I should be laughing would also create awkward situations, but at least they would be less offensive.

I would rather not be able to do either. How creapy would that be if everyone was laughing and I was blubbering in the corner. And when I heard that someone was hurt, I would laugh histerically...even creapier. I don't cry all that much anyway, and when people were laughing really hard, I could just smile. I would look rude, but at least not creapy. - Heidi R.

I would have to say the first. I would hate to not be able to laugh or cry again.

I actually laugh at all the wrong times anyway, so option number is not a departure from my ordinary life. I'll take it.

Jami said...

I'm with you Rebekah. The least offensive of the two. The thought of not being able to do either almost panics me! I love to laugh and I NEED to cry! :)

Jami said...

okay I just realized that like Jess - I misread the question. I too am tired - though it's only 3pm here. :)

sarah.flyingkites said...

Wow, I also misread the question. Oh, brother! :)

I would rather laugh when I should cry and cry when I should laugh that not being able to do either!

I pick option one....(like the majority of the people commenting)....I, too, can't imagine being unable to laugh or cry!
