So I was asked this by my friends kid. Would you rather live in the most boring place in the world, or be a hat? So to spice it up a little here are some rules.

If you live in the most boring place in the world: you can never leave, everything you do there and everyone else there is boring, you all live in a perpetual state of boredom.

If you choose to be a hat: you are not magical and can not talk, to anyone not a hat you are just a regular hat. If other hat people are around you can talk with them, but you don't know if there are other hat people until you are a hat so you might be alone. You can be any kind of hay you want

So lemmy I ask again, would you rather live in the most boring place in the world, or be a hat? And if you are really feeling spicy why?

If you live in the boring place, can't you at least have hobbies? I have more fun at home than I have going out, anyway.

Exactly. Just create something. A world where everything is boring is paradox, because we have creativity and can produce our own, interesting ideas.

If we go by OP’s rules of living in perpetual boredom, then I’d say no? No fun activities, if there’s no chores to be done, you just sit there. Still better than a hat tho
