Kristie | 5895 comments Thank you to Groovy for starting this game.

The question is, what would you do if something happened to you? You answer the question then ask a different question for the next reader starting with--what would you do if?

Let's start with Melissa's last question in the old thread:

What would you do if you never had to work ever again? (school, job, housework.) (You still CAN do it you just don't HAVE to, your laundry will do itself, etc)

Ooh, tough one. ;) I think I'd lay down and muse on how my life's purpose was unfulfilled while dying. Also, I'd see how long a Kindle Paperwhite could survive flames. Why not make Kindles fireproof as well as waterproof?

Okay, what would you do if your family caught the Flare but you were immune? (As in the Flare virus from "The Maze Runner")


message 26: by Laura (new)

Laura H | 151 comments Run!

message 28: by Papaphilly (new)

Papaphilly | 134 comments I do not think I would ever try and change the story line because it would ruin my favorite book.

WWYD if you were offered a chance for a do over once in your life.


message 29: by Daphne (new)

Had to google what Caraval is, looks like an interesting story! Added to my wishlist :D I would watch first to see what it's all about, but if I got intrigued, I would participate (despite it probably being dangerous, from the sounds of it).

What would you do if, whilst comfortably laying in bed in the evening, upon opening your book, suddenly, a dried spider fell out of it.... (based on a true story, poor spider)


message 31: by τα (new)

τα Nothing, I would throw it in the trash. Rip the poor spider.

What would you do if someone returned your borrowed book but with a damaged cover?


message 32: by Laura (new)

Laura H | 151 comments I would not loan them any more books. At least they are reading something I assume I recommended to them and they did return it. As long as the text of the book is okay, no big whoop, but never again.

What would you do if you were loaned a robot for one week?


message 33: by Papaphilly (new)

Papaphilly | 134 comments Not use it. I am a Luddite,

WWYD if you were the last of your blood line?


message 34: by Anna (new)

Anna Faversham (annafaversham) | 141 comments Start tracing my ancestors until I find a close match that's carrying on. I might even leave them something in my Will!

WWYD if you were asked to give a talk to Parliament/The Senate?


message 35: by Jen (new)

Jen | 28 comments I would buy a new outfit....and then I would prepare a speech to remind them they should treat their role in public service as a privilege and appeal to their conscious when making decisions that will affect those they represent. Too deep?

WWYD if you had a chance to go for lunch with your all time favourite author (living or deceased)?


message 36: by Tasha (new)

Tasha | 14 comments That would be so cool. I would have coffee with them and ask a few questions and listen to them.

What would you do if you had a choice to travel in the future or the past for one day?


message 37: by MauQ (last edited Nov 11, 2022 04:12PM) (new)

MauQ | 13 comments I would travel to the past to my childhood home and hug my cats and my dog, enjoy spending time with my younger parents, sit at my desk and look through a window, which overlooked a big tree, always full of birds and bird shenanigans. I think it would be a great day 🥰 I'm not sure if it would be a school day or a weekend, but I would go out too, maybe play with friends, go for a walk, visit my grandma's flat, which was just around the corner. I would take in every part of the day, the weather, the people, the pets, look around and try and hold on to every memory as hard as I could before being tucked into bed, perhaps with a book read by my dad or a story being told by my mum, knowing that I would wake up the next morning 20 years later...

You find yourself in a forest on a warm late afternoon. The tree cover makes it seem a bit dark though. You don't know how you got here and, on the path, you notice a lost velvet glove? What colour is it? What do you do?


message 38: by lisa crosby (new)

lisa crosby | 1 comments ...look up. panic. inquire of my first personality what the heck did you do? I would search the area for a second person then use my phone to determine my location. I would take the purple glove with me..muttering and cursing to myself as I walked toward the entrance of the park.

what would you do if on a morning walk with your dog a truck slowly passes by then stops a few paces in front of you. the window on the drivers side rolls down and a gloved hand motions at you?
