Alrighty, getting back into the swing of things I’ll kick it off with a brand spanking new Would You Rather.
I spent a large portion of my winter holiday with a badass stomach flu which left me on the couch puking for 2 days straight. I was talking to long time reader, Kater, and she said she would rather have a broken bone than puke for days straight. I told her she was batshit crazy, but thought maybe 1 other person in the world might agree with her for once?
So what do you think?
Would you rather puke for 3 days non stop? I’m not talking hangover puke. I am talking your stomach is dry heaving constantly once it’s empty. Everything you eat / drink comes right back up, etc.

Have a broken bone, let’s say your big toe. The pain would subside after 4-5 hours (I have no idea how long the pain actually lasts). But you’d have to wear some sort of splint on it for a month.
Well?

I’ll taking the broken toe. Dry heaving feels like i’m gonna die, and it’s so unsatisfying when you go through all that trouble to not really puke.
score one for katerrrrr
No question. I would easily take the broken toe over one day of non-stop puking. I had a virus once that made me puke non-stop for two days. I had to sleep next to the toilet. Screw that. Break my whole damn foot.
You guys are NUTSO. 2 days of puking and then its over…no cast and crap
I believe I’d take the puking. It would suck so much but as long as I had some Star Trek or terrible AMC movies to watch I think I’d be ok.
I had a dislocated big toe and that shit was painful. It actually didn’t hurt until they re-located it but I don’t think I left the apartment for two days (because of the pain). Also, if you break a bone you may end up puking anyway because of shock, infection, or internal bleeding. And although I don’t notice it at all my toe still doesn’t curl as much as the other one.
And just to follow-up. Broken toe=no big deal? How about all those athletes that are held out for weeks because of broken toes or even “turf toe.” You’d walk on it way sooner than you’re supposed to and probably never get it back to 100%.
