Cure for cancer.

That is all.

This sentimental movie marathon has taught us one thing.
The opposite of true love is as follows:
REALITY

I would choose to be extremely talented at an art form, namely drawing. My inability to draw has always frustrated me immensely. I have a lot of creative images in my head at any given time, and I feel that if I had the ability to draw, I could make some really original pieces and it would be an effective way to express emotion. There are certain times in which writing just doesn't cut it.

I would pick an art form.  If I could play a musical instrument really well, that would be amazing enough for me.  My backup choice would be if I could sing.

Something about the idea of being in a band and just singing and hitting a tambourine (or something more ridiculous... shaking maracas) seems extremely appealing to me.  However, only if I could actually sing.

I am not 100% sure exactly what type of art form I would choose (I am still a little iffy on exactly which area), but it most certainly wouldn't be anything logical.  I do enjoy logic to a certain extent, but I think I am more interested in the arts and probably should spend more time looking into some of my interests.

Sure, I could save the world and find the cure for cancer, but I think I would live a happier life if I was extremely talented in something that I enjoy doing.

This is an unintentionally hilarious sentence :x

If I'm going to be selfish, I'd say to be fantastically creative at music and guitar. From my few experiences of playing live, it's pretty fucking awesome, and I honestly couldn't see myself getting bored of it. To be in a successful rock band, to be playing arena/stadium tours, huge festivals... I'd basically be doing something I'd pay a lot of money to be able to do, only I'd be actually be paid quite a lot of money to do it instead.

Sure, doing something worthy of a Nobel prize would be nice and fulfilling, but I'd imagine that the self-satisfaction would sort of wear off after a while, and unless you've created something directly useful and patentable (which is fairly rare I'd expect) then you're not going to have a huge amount to show for it financially either.

I'd go with logical.  I would love to be able to go as far as I could as an engineer or scientist.  Those fields have always fascinated me more than creative abilities ever have.  I love music and drawing and other creative facets, but I've never wanted to center my life around them.  I'd be happier going with the logical.

I'm reviving this topic because it's awesome.

New question: You have to choose between saving your family and close friends vs. the rest of the world, who do you save?

Well, if all I had was my family and friends and no world to share with them, I'd save the world and proceed to commit suicide unless I made more awesome friends.

Because I'm selfish like that. :x

I agree with Snoggums, it would be really painful but we're talking about 6.7 billion people versus your own personal circle here.
The most logical option would be save the rest of the world.

Well, I don't care much for the rest of the people so much as all the people I love.

Actually, since my circle of loved ones is kinda large, might as well kill everyone else (world peace!) and we can either breed or die amongst ourselves. Either way, that'd be kinda awesome. :x

I actually have a response to this, and I'm not sure too many people will get it.

With the mating thing... You are limited to friends and family.  You probably shouldn't mate with family.  Would you be willing to mate with your friends?

I'm not sure if I would.  Although, I suppose there isn't any other choice (assuming you already picked the family/friends option).

Just hope that you picked out some hot friends over the years.

And there's the fact that your friends would likely have to mate with your family! :x Would you be willing to go through the mental scarring?
