Would you rather get stuck on a hostile alien world, or have hostile aliens invade our world?
Hmm. This is a tough question. On the one hand, if I am stuck on a hostile alien world, is it just until I can figure out a way off? Or am I stuck there for good? I'd be worried that I'd be dumped on some kind of alien planet without technology - the aliens that picked me up, that presumably have space travel, don't have to take me back to their home planet. They could just dump me on some primitive world with no sentient life, but lots of ferocious predators. I'd have to figure out how they work, how to hide, what I can eat and drink, and most of all, how to get home. Or if it is technological, how I can steal a ship, stow away, or convince someone to take me home somehow.
I guess I would choose hostile aliens invading our world, because we have the home team advantage, and we could potentially beat them and drive them off. Give them a kind of Vietnam-like scenario. Only trouble with that is, they could just come back again since they know where we are, and our tech isn't good enough that we could go to another planet.
Ah balls, sorry. My question's out of order.

Would you rather have a good friend you can open up to completely for thirty years and know nothing goes further or your mortgage paid off?
What do you mean by "know nothing goes further"?
I think, since I already have good friends, I would choose to have the mortgage paid off and have one less major issue to worry about. Plus all that money can go to a sweet car instead. Or two. Or three
Would you rather live in a futuristic sci fi world, or a medieval-themed fantasy world (with magic and dragons and stuff)?
