Honestly, I would do it in the first 5 minutes.
I’d wait until they’re out of the room just to be polite, but that’s it
Screw that. I’d shock myself while they explained it just to make sure they weren’t lying.
The best part is “at least one”. What’s the breakdown of more than one shock?
Bored people give themselves a bunch of painful shocks and when that isn’t enough to feel alive they increase the amperage of the shocks. Really the perfect metaphor of all of us using doomscrolling on social media.
Oh yeah I definitely would have been curious.
You gotta be sure, you know? Does it actually shock you? How bad does it hurt? Cant be too dangerous, right? Maybe you’ll even like it, you won’t know for sure unless you hit the button.
It’s not like they were going to apply a shock that would do damage. Fuck it.
Right? People who are like ‘lol men r dumb’ are the dumb ones. It’s a social experiment, now a Saw puzzle.
Yeah its a low risk experiment. On par with poking an animal corpse with a stick, it makes sense that a solid number of men would immediately go with poke it with a stick. Also it kinda makes sense from an evolutionary point of view that men would be more prone to checking things that are low risk out, one man can make a lot of babies at a time while one woman can only make one baby at a time.
I am now curious if the rate is similar for tans folks.
I would like to see a study done with several groups:
- People who read multiple books each year
- People who watch lots of video essays
- People who listen to podcasts
- People who prefer short-form content such as TikTok
- Veterans
- Educators, such as teachers or professors
- Librarians
- A control group composed of people who either do not fit into the other categories
I’ve heard a lot of people claiming some of these groups are better than others of these groups, but I’m rooting for a null result.
