    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 I chose smaller, largely because I would prefer the science to lean that way. I'd rather we have to fight bugs to survive than be afraid we'd be faced with massive soldiers or something. Either way we'd be useless to those who depend on us for that week.

      @futurebird I'm trying to figure out what my calorie and water requirements will be at the different sizes. I mean, assuming I can even digest matter made from "normal" sized stuff... Like if I'm small, can I even drink water? Would my body be able to make use of the 100 time too large molecules? 😰

        @futurebird
        I would hide and sleep for the entire week. Sounds lovely.

          @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.

              @futurebird The Human League taught me that I should want to be tall tall tall as big as a wall wall wall and if I'm not tall tall tall then I should grow grow grow.

                @futurebird If I go larger I could eat….basically any and everything I could ever want... (yessss!)

                -while- smashing a bunch of billionaire bunkers by "mistake" ???

                What a week!

                I feel the need to say: the smashing wouldn't be just revenge based "mistakes" I'm generally opposed to violence except against real threats.

                  @futurebird I wanna be bigger; I am afraid of getting hungry but I am even more afraid of getting eaten

                  I can casually walk a mile in 20 minutes so being able to casually walk 100 miles in 20 minutes, ie waking 300 mph, sounds pretty cool... I'm going to assume movie logic also applies to standing on the ground and we don't start sinking into soil like a concrete dam settling. I could go visit some national parks or something.

                    @futurebird I think my main concern would be loneliness. so smaller for sure, I'd have lots of company down there

                          @futurebird
                          My thought process…
                          Big would be nice, but I could become the target of unwanted attention.
                          Small will be difficult, but I could get around without being noticed.
                          Small it is.
                          I'll hitch a ride, board a plane to somewhere interesting, and explore. I'll pick a destination where I would want to be full size when the shrink ray wears off.

                                @futurebird huh, if I went big, I'd be 160 meters tall! Taller than Godzilla! But, actually, "not die" doesn't sound very good. "you must make it through the week" ... huh, not sure I could meet that requirement. I'm guessing building-stomping kaiju funtimes isn't really in the physics. So, no giant week for me. I am going small, though perhaps a little reluctantly.

                                  @futurebird If I went small, I'd be cat-food within 48 hours. I'd have to go big, and starve for a week. Plenty of water in the lakes around here.

                                    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 I would shrink and feast on the most expensive and delicious food, as I would only need the tiniest of bites. Preferable to having to eat 40 million kcal per day by growing big.

                                      @futurebird if I'm tiny, I could have adventures with my cats... if they didn't eat me first.

                                      If my spouse finds me first we could maybe make that happen!

                                        @futurebird is this another one of those introvert/extravert questions? 🤔
