WouldYouRather goes like this - OP posts a list of options that are either similarly good or similarly bad and people in the comments discuss how they would answer.

A Would You Rather question must be difficult to answer. If your question is easy to answer or just silly, it is probably more suited for r/pollgames. For regular poll-type questions, see r/polls. Offensive posts will be removed from r/wouldyourather

If you choose to make your WYR into a poll using Reddit’s poll feature you must put the entire question with both options in the submission title.

Example WYRs:

WYR have x-ray vision or bionic hearing?
WYR find true love or 1 million dollars?
WYR be an astronaut or a deep sea diver?

Please try to be creative with your would-you-rathers. The crux of a good WYR is that the full implications of each choice are easy to understand and fun to debate. Low-effort gross-out posts like "would you rather ingest [bodily fluid] or have sexual relations with [family member]" will be removed and repeat offenders will be banned.

If you're just looking to get people's opinions on less consequential things like ice cream flavors, please post to in a different subreddit.
