Alright, we were playing a new game at Rachel's called "would you rather." Basically a prompt to that the infamous, gruesome game you play when very bored. It sounded good at first, but it seemed to argument focused. Anyway, a question (player devised) came up of "Would you rather be knowledgeable and miserable or ignorant and happy?" Now, to me, this is a no-brainer. Being an existentialist, I know the price of knowledge. I also have little, if any, pride. So happiness trumped everything. But the other four players chose knowledge and misery. Is that a sign of bad priorities? Or what? I don't know. What would you have chosen (and why)?
