Happily Ever After Cafe discussion

I saw this game on another forum and thought it was fun to play. What would you do if something happened to you? Answer the question then ask a different question for the next reader. I'll start:

What would you do if a million dollars fell out of the sky into your back yard?

First I'd call the authorities to let them know so that the owners of the money could claim it. If not claimed then after tithing I'd take about 1/4 and put it in a savings account, use the rest to pay off a few bills, buy me a nice hot tub and go on vacation and do some repairs around the house. New kitchen and bath.

What would you do if a bear knocked on your front door?

Well, I had a possum in my lounge room at 1am the other night so I'm used to wildlife.

Maybe ask him inside for some honey on toast... seriously we don't have bears in Australia so it must have escaped from the zoo so I'd phone them to come and get him/her.

What would you do if an escaped prisoner was known to be in your neighbourhood?

I would lock all the doors and pull all the shades!!

What would you do if someone hacked your GoodReads account?

Wow, I didn't know that was possible. But if they did, I'd give myself time to calm down, then I'd contact the Goodreads' team. What else could I do?

What would you do if Brad Pitt showed up at your door?

After I'd picked myself up from the floor, invite him in a for a cuppa and a chat, of course.

What would you do if a long lost relative knocked on your door?

Can't think of any relatives that are lost but I'd invite them to dinner and catch up on their life. Make plans to keep in touch before they head off to being lost again.

Who would you do if you were invited on a world cruise but only if you worked?

Work it!

What would you do if you had a Secret Admirer?

Be flattered as long as they weren't too stalkerish!

What would you do if when at the hairdressers your hair colour turned out green?

Think I was back in my youth as the school pool always had too much chlorine and every summer my hair went a delightful pale green.

What would you do if you didn't have a car?

borrow my mom or hubby to take me where I have to go but otherwise I'd stay home and hope I could afford a car soon. I'm rural so no where to walk to unless I want to visit the cows or something.

What would you do if you got a $2,000 phone bill?

I contact the phone company and try not to use any profanity.

What would you do if there was a family raccoons in your attic?

I'd go into fright mode for a good ten minutes (frozen stiff, eyes wide, listening to them walk around) then I'd go to the attic and blow those mothers to Kingdom come--Just Kidding:) I'd telephone the critter removal people.

What would you do if the world ran out of coffee?

Have a cup of tea.

What would you do if your teenaged child crashed your car while you were teaching them to drive?

Well... since they are a "newbie," I wouldn't make them work it off. I'd just remind them that driving is a privilege, not a right.

What would you do if your house was T-pee'ed?

If the toilet paper is still in good condition, I'd fold every last bit of it up and T-pee the house next door, "cause I know you did it, Phillip. O.k.? I know you did it" :)

What would you do if you could go back in time for just one hour?

Buy clothes... a lot of clothes that would be considered vintage now.

What would you do if your internet didn't work for a year?

Cry! Really! Then I'd go somewhere with free WiFi and take a laptop with me on a regular basis.

What would you do if you saw a real ghost?

Scream and try not to think of Stir of Echoes...

If you could only read one book for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Nah, couldn't do it. Doesn't matter how good the book was it would soon lose it's appeal. I guess something like the Bible, a big, fat history book or the Guinness Book of Records would at least take you a while to get through.

If you could only eat one food group for a year what would it be?

Meat

what would you do if gnomes came alive and played in your garden?

Ask them to pull the weeds.

What would you do if you dog or cat suddenly started talking?

Have a good hard look at what I was drinking at the time.

What would you do if you had a snake come and make a home in your garden?

I'd bring it a house-warming gift--a cat.

What would you do if you woke up and found that you were the last person alive on earth?

Sigh and go forth to survive. Trying to remember all those survival shows I've watched.

What would you do if Peter Pan showed up in your house looking for Tinker Bell.

I'd help him search! I ♥ Tink.

What would you do if you were offered $100,000 if you proof-read 10 books in 10 day?

Drink a lot of energy drinks and start going crazy around book #3.

What would you do if you got invited to join a secret spy ring?

I'd really be tempted. I'd make the perfect spy because I'm an invisible person. People just don't see me. (I'm okay with that). But I would ultimately have to refuse due to my age and family.

What would you do if Chris Hemsworth and his family were staying in the same Hotel as you and you find them at the pool?

I'd try not to get trampled over by his fans and Mobarazzi.

What would you do if you were offered a million dollars to forget what you just witnessed?

Nah, you'd be looking over your shoulder from that time on.

What would you do if you found out your best friend's husband was having an affair?

That's a hard one. I'm not one to get in people's business but I think I might have to make hints or something to my friend.

What would you do if you stumbled into a hidden cave and found a bunch of skeletons?

If they were recent, I'd call the police. If they were old, I'd call an anthropologist. Of course, the problem is, how could I tell the difference, so I'd probably call the anthropologist first.

What would you do if you could eat whatever you want and never gain an ounce?

Continue to eat as I do, but hope that that doesn't mean I can't lose an ounce anymore.

What would you do if the police came to your house and told you you need a bodyguard for 24 hours?

I'd hope I got a really good looking eye candy one so I could drool as I wait out the 24 hours.

What would you do if you came home and it wasn't there?

That's a good one:

First, I'd call my daughter and make sure she wasn't in it at the time it disappeared.

Then, I'd watch the news to see whether it fell on the wicked witch of the west.

What would you do if you went to sleep in your bed, but woke up in the Serengeti Plains of Africa?

Pinch myself because I obviously am dreaming.

What would you do if you won a mystery raffle prize which turned out to be a flight on Virgin Galactic to space?

I'd see if they had two tickets because my husband would be upset if I went and he didn't go along as well.

What would you do if you were offered the chance to live forever?

I would only consider it if my body wouldn't age any further, and even then I would probably say no (I don't want to outlive everyone I love)

If you could have one material thing (without worrying about its cost) what would it be?

Swimming Pool

What would you do if someone you knew started a rumor about you that wasn't true in any way, shape, or manner?

Find out who started it and go to that person and ask them why and talk things out and hope they retract what they said. If that doesn't work I will hope that people would ask me about it so I can let them know the truth.

What would you do if you woke up and found you went back in time one year?

I'd avoid all the mistakes I made and leave myself a letter on what things worked, and what didn't. I'd hug my daughter more and tell her it's going to be okay, see you this time next year.

What would you do if you were given the power to end world hunger, but you'd age twenty years in the process?

I'd do it! But I'd want to live long enough to see it happen everywhere.

What would you do if you woke up one morning as president of the United States?

Well, that would be impossible seeing I was born in Australia. Again, must be a dream. But World Peace would have to be on the Agenda, wouldn't it?

What would you do if you woke up to find you were a finalist in the Miss Universe Pageant?

Faint! But really I'd be humble and hope someone else wins because I don't like the limelight.


What would you do if you discovered a hidden passage in your yard to an underground compound that was obviously not of this world? (Aliens from space)

I'm a wuss, so I doubt I'd enter. I guess pray they were friendly!

What would you do if you were give an all expense paid trip around the world, but it would take a year and you'd have to go alone? (You'd be safe, though.)

I'd pack my bags and tell my family I would see them in a year.

What would you do if you were given a book that outlined your future?

I would only read it if I was able to change the parts of my future I didn't like.

What would you do if you woke up naked in the middle of a forest?

Look for the nearest fig leaf!

What would you do if you woke up naked in the middle of a forest with your current favourite book boyfriend who also was naked?

Drool for a while and then look for fig leaves. lol

What would you do if you stumbled upon a pot of gold and a leprechaun that looked like one of the Hemsworth brothers?

Take both the pot of gold and leprechaun home with me, and lock the door....

What would you do if you had the ability to read people's minds?
