How much?

July 31, 2006 at 1:38 pm (Uncategorized)

Okay, so due to the caffeine I’m currently consuming, I actually have some ideas.  They may not be interesting, but at least they are something.  Hurray for Dr. Pepper!

 

Our family has recently come up with a new survey question.  The answer is very telling (though what exactly it tells you is kind of hard to determine). 

 

How much money would it take for you to eat a level tablespoon of human feces from an unknown source?

 

Here are the answers below:

 

Toby:  $200,000

Heather:  No price

Rachel:  $1,000,000

Gus:  $1,000

Kate:  $1,000,000

Magnus:  $200,000

Phyllis:  No price

Mike:  No price

Philip:  No price

Corinna:  No price

 

What does this say about the Miller value system vs. the Wells value system.  It seems that the Wells are less mercenary than the Millers.  And Gus, well, it says something about him, but I don’t think it says anything good.  So readers (both of you), how much would it take?

    And I came here for a baby update?!

    Um, no price. If it was desease-free, $999,999,999,999 (USD), cash delivered up front.

    Before I answer, did those who stated “no price” mean that they flat out refused to do it, or that they’d do it for free? Just wanted to clarify…

    Also, I have one key word for you to consider:
    MUSHROOMS.

    I think carrots and corn go better with pricey poo.

    Yeah, I had carrots and corn the other day and my poo was SUPER colorful. It was almost too pretty to flush! Almost.

  5. katenmw said,

    Yeah, “no price” means that they won’t do it for any amount of money.

    No comment on Magnus’s comment. Ack.

    Hey, I didn’t go anywhere Sam hadn’t already gone! :-D

    I would have saved it, Magnus. Or at least photograph it next time! We could have a contest.

    We could upload it, too!

    It was like a colorful snake resting at the bottom of the bowl!

    …a bowl of worms Kate likely wishes she hadn’t uncovered.

    What! $1000 is the lowest? I’ll go $999 no problem. I could see myself going as low as $499 in a pinch… hehe, loaf. I can think of quite a few things I don’t own, but should own, that cost $499 or less.

    Mel rocks.

    Ok, what’s going on up there? You kids quiet down!

    May I say that Heather is probably no telling the honest truth about the pooh-eating. I know she’s got her price!

  13. Samantha Tengelitsch said,

    Yeah, I have my doubts about a few of the “no pricers.” :-)

    Ok…so I was full already!

    We know you really have your price, Mom.
