    A mad scientist has a shrink/grow ray and you will be hit with it. You will either be 100 times larger (200 m tall) or 100 times smaller (2 cm tall) for one week.

    Because of movie logic you will not die or suffer any huge health impacts, but you must make it through the week.

    Do you go big? Or do you go small?

    How will you spend your week?

    @futurebird if you're not some galaxy devouring immortal, or something, being bigger sucks, because you'll have less space and therefore less fun. And I'm also considering the grocery bill.

          @futurebird I regret choosing before reading your awesome descriptions of being small.

          However...Imagine just stomping on these losers. Like just being up there, absolutely stunting on all these little ants and not even noticing they're in awe of you. I would absolutely terrorise these miniature peasants for 7 solid days before I shrunk back down and pretended I didn't know what I was doing. Real talk fuck all these people, you all know I deserve it.

              @futurebird smaller! Because no one will see me, an I could get everywhere I want in my garden. I could eat one strawberry a week or collect seeds for food...

                @futurebird at 200m tall I’ll die of dehydration before the week is out, unless I’m willing to create an environmental disaster by draining the local lake and converting it to an equivalent volume of urine.

                  @futurebird Still deciding.

                  I want to say "big" and do a kaiju attack on the forces of evil but I think bullets would kill a giant me pretty quickly if I didn't have godzilla's regeneration and damage reduction powers. I guess I could maybe dig a big hole somewhere instead, that might be fun.

                  I could say "small" and just try to hang out eating giant fruits, but then I'd probably spend my day battling giant bugs like the protagonist of a 50s adventure magazine.

                    @futurebird 100 times larger would have me terrified of doing some Clifford the Big Red Dog shit, except it's a realistic world, so people I accidentally step on would be capable of dying. I'd also be worried about running into the same fate as every other film with creatures taller than most buildings. (I know you said we won't die but I can't imagine a military wouldn't be on my ass if I started stepping on people's homes, whether I wanted to or not.)

                    Meanwhile, 100 times smaller means I can effectively disappear from society for a week and my bed becomes the size of a city block from my perspective. I usually have snacks in the room, so I can just subsist on junk food for the week. Water might be difficult unless I was able to prepare ahead of time, but the most unpleasant thing that could happen to me still sounds no worse than if the inverse happened.

                      A few dozen boxes of cereal mixed with sticks of butter should be enough calories to keep the tummy from rumbling for a bit.

                      Water might mean popping a hydrant, unless you live near some nice clean lakes.

                        @futurebird I mean smaller is the only one that makes sense really. Couldn't afford the food bill to go big. Also, while I think I could trust my spouse to leave me in a habitrail for a week, I don't think the US military could go a full 10 minutes without murdering a giant trans person.

                          @futurebird @GreenSkyOverMe Cool, thanks a lot! I‘ll let you know about the surface tension problem as soon as I‘ve solved the issue with my power plug and the oversized receptacle I didn‘t think about.

                          This plan sounded better when I was bigger.

                              Either of these options will kill me.

                              Too big: there's nowhere in my city where I could bed down. Square-cube law says I'd break if I tried to stand, too. (Also, my required medication dosage would increase extremely alarmingly.)

                              Too small: my cat would eat me.

                                  @futurebird 100 x smaller every time. I can literally just stay inside all week, which is my ideal week. Otherwise I’d be forced to stay outside for the whole week, which is a nightmare scenario!

                                      At 200m tall I don't think a bullet would kill you. It'd hurt, but who would be brave enough to get close enough to try? You could pick them up by the shirt and pluck their gun away.

                                      @futurebird You really believe the army would stop at bullets to get rid of a giant?

                                        A mad scientist has a shrink/grow ray and you will be hit with it. You will either be 100 times larger (200 m tall) or 100 times smaller (2 cm tall) for one week.

                                        Because of movie logic you will not die or suffer any huge health impacts, but you must make it through the week.

                                        Do you go big? Or do you go small?

                                        How will you spend your week?

                                          @futurebird small. Big would be shot dead so fast, small I could hide and not be killed. Though the thought of encountering bugs while small is absolutely terrifying, I would need some help.
