    Would you rather have a small schlong that can perform at the drop of a hat, multiple times a night, or a huge schlong that needs to warm up for a once a night performance?

    Wow, that's a great question. Tough one, though. What does one gage his response on ?

    Physical prowess ? Keen detection skills ?

    The ability to banter well with super villains ?

    Super intelligence and peak physical condition does not automatically mean you'll be a good athlete. Far from it.

    I would choose the athlete option. I'd rather be Tracy McGrady than Stephen Hawking.

    OoOooOo... I see another good one...

    AMERICAN FOOTBALL player, or SOCCER PLAYER? ;) nice!

    I, of course, can't tackle a 200lb. guy. :) But I can score on a 7' by 13' goal from midfield.

    Would you rather have nunchuk skills or computer hacking skills?

    intelligent. After about 35 years you do not have any use for the athletic abilitys.

    I'll take the superior athletic abilities. I've done the superior intellect thing for nearly 30 years and it isn't what it's cracked up to be.

    I thought Mango had a big pit instead of a heart.

    And, I'll take the haxor skillz over the nunchuks -- I can get a job (or be "self-employed") with hacking skills, what can you get for nunchuk skills?

    Being a nerd doesn't get you the chicks and I would much rather be balling and getting paid then nerding and getting paid. Even if you only play for 10 years you are set for life.

    The way the world is set up, being too smart for your own good will make you miserable. I'd rather be super athletic and rich and let someone else clean up the mess. More people would get your jokes at parties, and you'd have the satisfaction of knowing that you can take almost anyone on if a random fight happens.

    I'll have to go with super athletic, most notably with basketball skillz. I mean, what better job would you have than being a NBA Baller or being in the MLB? You get frickin paid big time to play a game and you get to retire and a real early early. With superior intellect, comes greater responsibility...so sorry uncle ben, I rather be a top level baller.

    What if you didn't get to choose which sport you excelled at? (ie: you are blessed with the best curling skills ever.) Would you still take the athletic endowment, or would you rather be a genius?

    eating right and exercising and supplements wouldn't help 99% of the population to freak athlete condition. you gotta be born with the body and skills to get there and help it along with such things.


    i'd take athlete all the way. i'll take all the money i make and pay people to be smart for me. i get to play sports for my life instead of having to think, i make tons of money, you get women, you are famous, you are in great condition and can do whatever you want with that. being amazingly smart would get you money as well and possibly fame but none of the other things.

    and who cares if it fades after 10 or 15 years and i can be smart for life. am i trying to write doctoral dissertations for the rest of my life or something. as long as you're allowed some moderate intelligence, you'll enjoy your retirement years quite well playing golf and hanging out with famous people.

    So, what you are saying is that you'd make a lot, but you'd spend a lot, right?

    It surprises me what choice people are making. Most of you, I suspect, are a lot closer in real life to being a super intellect than being a super athlete. So you would choose the other option... makes me just wonder if the "grass is always greener". Or is it just for the money they make?

    If so, hope you wouldn't make the money and be too dumb to know how to handle it. :)
