Cross Country Road Trip- USA

Travel time: August 2007  |  by Christina E.

Colorado

Driving through Colorado had its moments. Some of the scenery were of stretches of depleted and barren land; others, had gorgeous views of the mountains and other state treasures.

While driving, Jen and I kept ourselves amused with our all-time favorite game: Who could come up with the more disgusting hypothetical question?

On this leg of the trip, we asked each other:
WOULD YOUR RATHER...?

  • Have smelly, thick pube hair on the top of your head OR be bald, but have slight peach fuzz

  • Be extremely fat on top OR grotesquely fat on the bottom

  • Eat a raisin that's been inside someone's bottom for 2 weeks OR a prune that's been inside a girl's vagina for a year (even throughout the period cycles)

  • Have a penis for a nose OR a vagina for a mouth

  • Eat a small live fetus OR a cooked 1-year old baby

  • Pop someone's pimples spread all over their body with your teeth while sucking the pus out OR have leprosy?


Pretty much, this went on for hours...

WORST Chinese food Jen and I have EVER eaten in our entire lives.

WORST Chinese food Jen and I have EVER eaten in our entire lives.

Jen and I stopped at this Chinese restaurant for lunch because we missed Asian food so much, thereby making a really bad decision in doing so.

I have never in my entire life seen red fried rice or a ketchup bottle at a Chinese restaurant, but here in the middle of Colorado, that's what we saw. We were so hungry at this point, we decided $5.95 for all-you-can-eat would be worth it, but midway through the second plate, we just couldn't stop laughing at how miserable the food was.

Sadly, our favorite item at the Chinese Buffet

Adding to our 'hypothetical game', we asked:

  • Would you rather eat this Chinese buffet everyday for the rest of your life OR McDonald's Sausage McMuffin w/ Egg?


It was a no brainer:
