Let's play a game....

[Forestghost]

Ok everyone, I don't know if this is something that anyone will enjoy, but here we go...

I like to play what some writers describe as "What If?" It's a game to get those creative juices flowing

Ask a question with the words "What if" as the first two words...

Then simply try to imagine a world where that "what if" actually was. I guess it's how all good stories/movies/shows are made. (Like someone thought up the question "What if apes were smarter than humans?" and came up with the Planet of the Apes)

So I propose that we all provide eachother with a little entertainment by coming up with "what if" statements.
Here are a few of mine to get the ball rolling:

What if water was a commodity more precious than gold or oil?

What if having sex outside of marriage were considered a bigger crime than first degree murder?

What if canniballism was a normal part of everyday life? (imagine the signs at a butcher shop..."toe bones, great for stews, 10 for $2.00"...would we use those who died of natural causes? would there be people farms?)

Yeah, that last one is kinda sick, but you get the idea...so let's see what you've got!

[KilLAtomiK]

what if hitler won world war two?

what if martin luther king was never killed?

[MistressJennifer]

But having sex outside of marriage IS considered a bigger crime than first degree murder, at least in the USA. Look at the tabloids!!!

The US has gotten ULTRA conservative lately.

[Forestghost]

Yeah, I suppose...
I'm from Canada though, we don't quite follow the whole USA taboo thing
at least most of us don't!

What if the earth would spin into the opposite direction?

What if water was a commodity more precious than gold or oil?

They'd probably sell it on the streets.

"Psst, I got water and if you want it called I got ice motherfucka"

What if we had lost world war 1?
What if we had never gone to war in iraq?
What if JFK hadn't been murdered?
What if my job was a wonderful place and not a horrible soul sucking place?

well i got no sources to back this up but i had a professor who had a doctorite of chemistry and a few other degrees etc tell me that the human body would normally live to be 215-250 years old if our body wasn't polluted from any and all toxins from the world. he explained that it had something to do with the number of times a cell can divide itself before finally dieing off.
