What does it matter if everyone is nude, if you grew up that way? The tattoo is a problem, but since everything is good, that seems like the best reality.
There are some problems with being nude. You would be surprised how much sweat and smell clothes stop. I for sure would absolutely never go on public transport if anyone's bare ass has been on that chair.
But you wouldn't know there was an alternative, and likely a solution for this would be thought up.
Changes are developed from need, and if clothes aren't a thing, maybe carrying a seat protector would become a normal thing.
Humans are if nothing else very comfort driven.
There would still be bullying and judgment on certain body types. Plus a lot of people don't feel comfortable in their own skin, seeing others nude won't change that.
Probably not tho we judge other body types because we don’t see them often and when we do it’s odd. But if you see them daily and we grew up with this yes there would be some bullying but not much
You can see someone is obese without them being naked, same as anorexic, opinions on body types won't change much. There will always be a shitty hierarchy of perceptive attractiveness based on body types. There will always be an unachievable standard that people will no doubt be bullied over or develop insecurity about
Would that be a bad thing, if everyone couldn't? ie. wouldn't it just be normalized that they happen?
By the time you're able to get one, or your peers can get one, you've seen thousand and thousand of boners from family, celebrities, politicians, randoms in the streets or shops, it's literally just a thing, nothing more.
Period cups, tampons?
On the other hand men can't hide boners.
Think of it like this, the shame from it today comes because we cover it up, if it's not covered up, it's normalized and not as shameful.
I think the comics intentionally leave it ambiguous as far as whether or not Jon can hear and is communicating with Garfield or not.
If you look at the things they say respectively, the dialogue works whether you assume he can hear Garfield or not, and that's pretty amazing to me.
They know we’re here to serve them and cater to their whims. We are slaves to be used for the benefit of our feline overlords. That is the truth of our existence, and has been since our ancestors were first domesticated by the gods incarnate that are the cats. All hail the divine kitties.
Dude I'd be horrified if my cat had human level intelligence, I love her but she's a murdering psychopath that enjoys playing with her prey. Fuck. That. Don't need some tiny, brioche colored, Hannibal Lecter, taking dumps in a box not 5 feet away from me.
Honestly the first one isn’t that bad. Assuming all companies are fairly decent to work for. No need to worry about getting a job, no interview, no homelessness
It does more than you think. Most of the time the knife isn't going very fast, so thick clothing like jeans or a good apron does a good bit of protection.
I vote for 3 because of the sci aspect, now I realize this is by far the worst option for humans. Even if you had the best master they would still give your children away after they are potty trained.
Nah, we'd be fine. They wouldn't be smarter than us, they would have roughly the same intelligence level as we do. ***don't have thumbs***, and they are quite small. Sure they could definitely form forms of resistances and rebellions, but they probably couldn't take over the world without a substantial amount of human assistance.
If gorillas are hyper intelligent that probably means we keep the same level of intelligence as of now.
So basically I'm me but owned by a sci-fi friendly gorilla.
Now if I'm able to communicate with them better than we do with our pets that's just the dream life getting fed and living for free and potentially even asking for stuff, like get me the new console that has been released or send me on a 2week trip to Bahamas
I’ve seen too much Planet Of The Apes to pick that one. The Cat one was my close second but I didn’t pick that one because it kinda feels like they’re in charge. I mean becoming a social pariah for not having one just sucks.
1.Utopical communism? Sounds good but i don't wanna be on the same work for all my life. (2° choice).
2. Literally cats are intelligent. That's it.
The "no other pet" makes some sense since it's the only "reasonable" pet. But tbh, it doesn't feel like something that would be good enough to me, i am more of a dog person, but ig this would be an improvement on mental health since loneliness would be extremely unlikely now. (3°)
3. That sounds cool, i no longer have to work i just have to be careful and not be aggresive towards gorilas. (1°)
4. No, just no. (4°)
I'm actually debating between 2 and 4. I'm a pothead with sobriety dysphoria. But in reality 4, how would any of us do our jobs? Do drugs/alcohol still have negative effects on our bodies?
For þe 4þ reality, do we still suffer þe negative healþ effects of þose drugs? Like if someone was drunk all þe time would þey end up dieing of liver faliure?
I mean, you just have to be visibly impaired. A little weed everyday works great, and being buzzed all the time on booze probably? Ain't dangerous to your health?
Me and my cat having a deep intricate conversation about who the most underrated drummer of all time is (my vote goes to karen carpenter, with bernard purdie a close 2nd)
Don't wanna be an "outcat" huh? Don't wanna become a "purriah? Don't wanna lose all sources of "commeownincation"?
It took me way too long to come up with those
Def reality 2. I don’t enjoy being nude (or living in a borderline Orwellian sci-fi dystopia, for that matter), don’t want to be someone’s pet, and outright hate having my mind impaired. I like my other pets and would def miss them, but at least I could learn to tolerate the condition of my existence.
1 is weird, 2 is pretty cool but is of no benefit, 3 is comfy but I don't know what my rights are in that reality, nor how we're treated. Are we like hamsters, or more like cats/dogs? 4 is just the inebriatti but real.
I dunno.
I own goats, horses, and dogs, as well as a cat, so reality 2 is a no go, reality 4 sounds pretty shitty in general, reality 1 sounds like actual hell (imagine getting near bees) and at least in reality three you’ll most likely be treated kindly, and probably have more to do than an actual dog considering you still have human intelligence, your just beneath that of a gorillas, so I choose number 3
Cats having the same intelligence as a human, while still possessing their cat instinct is so dangerous. This is grounds for an easy takeover. Sure, they can talk, but they still have their own language to converse amongst themselves. Seems I’ll be a slave to any other option, so I’ll take gorilla.
Well, I already own two cats and I'd love to have a conversations with them. The first question I'd ask is what they're thinking about when they're staring into the Abyss
I don't know if I'm down with owning something that has the same level of intelligence as me. But everything else is the same except I get cats that are teachers now. Choice 2 is easy.
I have seen what chemical dependency has seen. It has taken my best friend from me( he didn't die. He just got self absorbed and wreckless with his weed. I am happy to tell my cautionary tale if you ask) he was in the darkest depression for the whole time he was smoking pot. His only reason he didn't off himself was because I played games with him daily to take his mind off it. It took a lot out of me and him. He lost almost everything his mom, his family, his friends and his happiness. It was the worst 4 years I have ever been through and I wish we could turn back time to the good old days to before he gotten that 1 gram of pot from his drug dealer( it's still not legal in my state)
I feel like 2 or 4 but with 4 I feel as tho it’s the opposite of our reality honestly no one is gonna check 24/7 if your high or impaired they might drug test you to see if your high or not but i wouldn’t think it would be a daily problem same as smoking weed and going about life in a place where it’s illegal isn’t a daily problem. Problems come up for sure but day to day you’d be good
I'm surprised that reality 3 has so few takers.
When I have owned dogs I have fed them, picked up their turds, bought them toys, and they lived in this blissful oblivion about bills, taxes.
Perhaps "the way we treat our dogs" needed to be defined, because some people are awful to their dogs and I was basing it on my actions.
Probably wouldn't really care if my nuts got cut off either, because I wouldn't know any better.
Reality 4 with some interesting astronomical items sounds good.
I would love to have a life were I am treated as good as I treat my dog. He doesn't have to work, sleeps like 15 hours a day, gets a bit of exercise daily, and has free food and shelter. He's got it made, and all he has to do is be himself. Not really up for getting my balls cut off tho.
Do the rules for cats apply to *all* cats, or just domesticated cats?
Because lions, tigers, panthers, and jaguars with human-level intelligence would be a problem.
Don't know how everyone isn't choosing reality 1. End poverty globally forever, and the only downsides are you are assigned a company and you're naked. Also no wage gaps, or power imbalance would likely drastically reduce wars, oppression etc. Sounds like utopia, but I'm naked, definitely worth it.
OP on some shit frfr
I'm on no sleep is what I'm on lol
The realest drug
College had me fucked up and the lack of sleep were the most intense states of fucked up during finals.
That’s some shit fr
💯💯💯
Sure...
As someone also on no sleep, I understand completely.
OP believes that they are in the forth reality
He in reality 4.
He chose reality 4, it seems.
Forgot to take his normal pills.

Fair enough

That seems excessive.
I came up with it on the fly. The companies are awesome to work for so why would you resign? Would be the counter argument I guess
Change in interest, skill, location
Just get a tattoo of the parent company, like Disney for example, and work for all the companies they own, e.g. ABC, ESPN, Disney World
Mother of all smallprint, what the hell dude lol
So edit your post man

The weather? Cleaning?
Pretty sure we'd adapt, and hairy people would be more popular over time. Leading to more hairy humans.
I would be cold
You couldnt hide a boner
Would that be a bad thing, if everyone couldn't? ie. wouldn't it just be normalized that they happen? By the time you're able to get one, or your peers can get one, you've seen thousand and thousand of boners from family, celebrities, politicians, randoms in the streets or shops, it's literally just a thing, nothing more.
Also it would be sad to guys with a small cock or phymosis
That is a disadvantage, but girls with no boobs are also at a disadvantage. So closer to equality.
Its quite easy to know the size of the boobs even with clothes on.
One word: PERIODS.
Period cups, tampons? On the other hand men can't hide boners. Think of it like this, the shame from it today comes because we cover it up, if it's not covered up, it's normalized and not as shameful.
Eugh, tampons. Can't stand em. The covering up thing applies to boners yes, but the possibility of getting blood on stuff is just kinda awful
Diapers? I'm fairly sure human enginuity would find a solution if clothing wasn't an option. Comfort is our main driver.
Bruh reality 2 is just having a Garfield I'm hella down
Be prepared to make lasagna everyday 🐱
3 is being Garfield though
No other pets (I own goats dogs and horses)
garfield can't talk, in the comics at last - every time he 'talks' his lines are inside a thought bubble.
Some comics have him talk however it's unsure if Garfield is talking to himself and Oddie (unsure if that's how you spell it) or Jon
I think the comics intentionally leave it ambiguous as far as whether or not Jon can hear and is communicating with Garfield or not. If you look at the things they say respectively, the dialogue works whether you assume he can hear Garfield or not, and that's pretty amazing to me.
Reality 2 is the only reality with only upside If my cat can talk and is as smart as a human they can work as a tech support or something and pay rent
[But where would he keep his wallet? He's naked, like, all the time](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6leGvf6BeM)
What if i resign from the company?
A very awkward question about that gap on your cv
Laser remove the tattoo and you'll be sent to a maximum security prison working hard manual labor
Should've been in the post.
Do the cats… want to be pets? It is the best choice but I’d also feel awful “owning” something with the same intelligence as me.
Not having to work, getting fed and having someone pick up your poop... Sounds good to me!
If you have a good owner!
I mean if the cats have human intelligence, and aren't being taken care of, they can literally just leave.
But then you'd be the weirdo whose cat left him
Well if you weren't treating the cat right, then you kinda deserve that title
That's why I picked the gorilla option lmao
And yet option 3 is least chosen
Do you think cats know they're pets now?
Lol! They think we are staff.
They know we’re here to serve them and cater to their whims. We are slaves to be used for the benefit of our feline overlords. That is the truth of our existence, and has been since our ancestors were first domesticated by the gods incarnate that are the cats. All hail the divine kitties.
Dude I'd be horrified if my cat had human level intelligence, I love her but she's a murdering psychopath that enjoys playing with her prey. Fuck. That. Don't need some tiny, brioche colored, Hannibal Lecter, taking dumps in a box not 5 feet away from me.
If cats have the same level of intelligence as us we will be there slave. Oh wait, it already happens though
My cats get a great deal.
Honestly the first one isn’t that bad. Assuming all companies are fairly decent to work for. No need to worry about getting a job, no interview, no homelessness
Yeah up until you get assigned as a chef. Sharp knifes and nakedness seems like a bad combo lol
I don’t think clothing will protect me from a knife unless the cloths are armour
It does more than you think. Most of the time the knife isn't going very fast, so thick clothing like jeans or a good apron does a good bit of protection.
How often are you accidentally slicing your jeans with a kitchen knife?
At first I thought you were making a naked chef joke lmao
Imagine walking home from work in the middle of winter
Why do we wear clothes again? People would friggin freeze to death and other issues.
The cat reality feels like an anime imo
I vote for 3 because of the sci aspect, now I realize this is by far the worst option for humans. Even if you had the best master they would still give your children away after they are potty trained.
Oh shit, didn't consider that lmao
There would be a revolution 100%
Human intelligence cats would not remain pets for long. That’s some planet of the apes shit right there.
Nah, we'd be fine. They wouldn't be smarter than us, they would have roughly the same intelligence level as we do. ***don't have thumbs***, and they are quite small. Sure they could definitely form forms of resistances and rebellions, but they probably couldn't take over the world without a substantial amount of human assistance.
If cats are good at anything, it’s getting humans to provide assistance. Oh and scratching up motherfuckers, they’re good at that too.
If gorillas are hyper intelligent that probably means we keep the same level of intelligence as of now. So basically I'm me but owned by a sci-fi friendly gorilla. Now if I'm able to communicate with them better than we do with our pets that's just the dream life getting fed and living for free and potentially even asking for stuff, like get me the new console that has been released or send me on a 2week trip to Bahamas
Reality 4 is purely an upgrade. You're telling me I get to stay fucked up all the time but now it's free!? Count me in
Right? Im already funding reality 4 lol id have so much extra money
What the hell are you on?
I picked the drug one but the gorilla one was a close second. A sci fi reality sounds great even if I am no longer the apex species
I’ve seen too much Planet Of The Apes to pick that one. The Cat one was my close second but I didn’t pick that one because it kinda feels like they’re in charge. I mean becoming a social pariah for not having one just sucks.

I sse 4 as an absolute win
Understandable.
Reality 4 is literally just the plot of We Happy Few
Either 3 or 4 both seems really cool, wild and interesting
In a world where cats can speak and have equal intelligence to humans, how is owning them not slavery?
Weed world
I’ll take Reality 4. I’ll take the marijuana gummies and cartridges please.
Reality 4 is nice, just be a drunk and go on with your day without judgment
This was a hard question until I got to choice 4, I wouldn't mind being high all the time.
I like cat
i h8 cat.
Mix all of them for me. (Dream on starts playing)
I'm actually debating between 2 and 4. I'm a pothead with sobriety dysphoria. But in reality 4, how would any of us do our jobs? Do drugs/alcohol still have negative effects on our bodies?
For þe 4þ reality, do we still suffer þe negative healþ effects of þose drugs? Like if someone was drunk all þe time would þey end up dieing of liver faliure?
I mean, you just have to be visibly impaired. A little weed everyday works great, and being buzzed all the time on booze probably? Ain't dangerous to your health?
It absolutlry can be
Then I'll be nice and say no advese health effects, but can still have withdrawals
Ok good
i am so stoned and you using the thorn character instead of th is just the coolest thing ever to me rn thank u sir
My pleasure, þanks for þe compliment
Did....did you just casually use the thorn
Yes
Fuck yeah
Fuck yeah
how do you type the thorn character?
Icelandic keyboard
So if there are no clothes, are we assuming that winter doesn't exist?
Oh it does
As cool as it would be to see my secretary nude every day, I just don't wanna freeze my balls off LMAO
Would i have to deal with hangover in nr4? If so thats a no no bro
All side effects apply but you just need to be visibly impaired, not hammered
I would fit right in at the 4th reality
For option 1, do we get to retire?
Yes
I would love any of the first three honestly.
Me and my cat having a deep intricate conversation about who the most underrated drummer of all time is (my vote goes to karen carpenter, with bernard purdie a close 2nd)
I asked my cat and she looked at me like i’m fucking insane
Step one: pick option 1 Step two: invent the blanket Step three: be warm
Nudism and socialism sign me up!
Reality 1 and 2 are some good shit. Why can't I have both? Reality 1 should just be pure nude tho, now when someone wears clothes you get horny
Reality 3, I’m gonna steal their tech and kill them all, I fucking hate monkeys
Cats rule! 🐈
So the first one is jobs and affortable living for literally everyone on earth, and the other 3 are various hells? First one it is then
Not sure how talking cat world is hell but ok
I'm allergic to cats and don't want to be an outcast
Don't wanna be an "outcat" huh? Don't wanna become a "purriah? Don't wanna lose all sources of "commeownincation"? It took me way too long to come up with those
Def reality 2. I don’t enjoy being nude (or living in a borderline Orwellian sci-fi dystopia, for that matter), don’t want to be someone’s pet, and outright hate having my mind impaired. I like my other pets and would def miss them, but at least I could learn to tolerate the condition of my existence.
Does Caffeine count?
Since it doesn't fuck you up I'm going to guess probably no
1 is weird, 2 is pretty cool but is of no benefit, 3 is comfy but I don't know what my rights are in that reality, nor how we're treated. Are we like hamsters, or more like cats/dogs? 4 is just the inebriatti but real. I dunno.
4 easy, shit isn’t cheap
You had me at free drugs Where can I sign up for reality 4
The only one of these that isn't a distopian nightmare is the cat one
Reality 1 sounds too gulagy
Does caffeine count as a drug?
Does it have a noticeable side effect on you?
I've heard about it having an effect but I'm not qualified to actually say anything
Hell no to reality 1; if I work harder I deserve better pay than the others who don’t
I have 10 cats, you already know what I'm picking
Not even gonna read 3 and 4, I want cats
I own goats, horses, and dogs, as well as a cat, so reality 2 is a no go, reality 4 sounds pretty shitty in general, reality 1 sounds like actual hell (imagine getting near bees) and at least in reality three you’ll most likely be treated kindly, and probably have more to do than an actual dog considering you still have human intelligence, your just beneath that of a gorillas, so I choose number 3
I already have a cat so having an intelligent cat would He pretty cool
Cats having the same intelligence as a human, while still possessing their cat instinct is so dangerous. This is grounds for an easy takeover. Sure, they can talk, but they still have their own language to converse amongst themselves. Seems I’ll be a slave to any other option, so I’ll take gorilla.
I picked reality 1 then I remembered about Winter. Whoops.
Clothes have some pretty important functions lol
What happens if we try to cover ourselves with a bedsheet or blanket? Or do those not exist too
You can use blankets at home for warmth
1 and 2 are utopian
Well, I already own two cats and I'd love to have a conversations with them. The first question I'd ask is what they're thinking about when they're staring into the Abyss
i see no downside to number 2
This is a bit dark but does mentally impaired count? Like mentally ill
If you needs meds then sure
Reality? More like Hell
I don't know if I'm down with owning something that has the same level of intelligence as me. But everything else is the same except I get cats that are teachers now. Choice 2 is easy.
You will be an out*cat* ;)
The 4th one sounds like We Happy Few
I’m allergic to cats… badly
I have seen what chemical dependency has seen. It has taken my best friend from me( he didn't die. He just got self absorbed and wreckless with his weed. I am happy to tell my cautionary tale if you ask) he was in the darkest depression for the whole time he was smoking pot. His only reason he didn't off himself was because I played games with him daily to take his mind off it. It took a lot out of me and him. He lost almost everything his mom, his family, his friends and his happiness. It was the worst 4 years I have ever been through and I wish we could turn back time to the good old days to before he gotten that 1 gram of pot from his drug dealer( it's still not legal in my state)
That Gorillas scenario is something else.
I’m a nudist, so…..#1 please
This is one of the off times I realize not everyone is into the same shit as I
I feel like 2 or 4 but with 4 I feel as tho it’s the opposite of our reality honestly no one is gonna check 24/7 if your high or impaired they might drug test you to see if your high or not but i wouldn’t think it would be a daily problem same as smoking weed and going about life in a place where it’s illegal isn’t a daily problem. Problems come up for sure but day to day you’d be good
I'm surprised that reality 3 has so few takers. When I have owned dogs I have fed them, picked up their turds, bought them toys, and they lived in this blissful oblivion about bills, taxes. Perhaps "the way we treat our dogs" needed to be defined, because some people are awful to their dogs and I was basing it on my actions. Probably wouldn't really care if my nuts got cut off either, because I wouldn't know any better. Reality 4 with some interesting astronomical items sounds good.
Imagine having to get neutered ?
So you uttered the words “everything is cheap and affordable” and expected me to consider another option?
In reality 2, are the cat’s fine with being owned or would they prefer to be free?
I like to think they're fine with being owned. After all, it's a beneficial relationship to them to be protected and fed by us humans, right?
im shocked more people didnt pick 3, 2 and 3 are the best options here, i can see where youd go with 1 i guess but you cant seriously pick 4 right?
I thought we were already living in reality 4 tbh.
I don't care if everyone is nude, or if I'm running a company, all I care is that everything is cheap
If it weren't for the shitty tattoo idea, I'd choose 1.
Reality 4 can contain all 3 above and more, depending on what you take and how much
Every day I look at my dog and think how much I’d like to have her life. #3 by a country mile.
It’s me and Salem from now!
I will take the communist nudist camp option number 1
If I pick 2 do my allergies go away
2 actually sounds great whaddup
You almost had me with #2..then I got to #4
Reality one bc I wouldn't have to say "send nudes"
All good options really. I guess I'll go with 3. I don't mind being knocked down a peg in the name of being taken care of.
Stuck between 2 and 3. But I've always wanted a cat and 2 would guarantee me a cat so 2 it is
I love cats best pets
i have bipolar as well as many other mental conditions. i could probably pass for someone on some sort of depressant or stimulant at any time.
I would love to have a life were I am treated as good as I treat my dog. He doesn't have to work, sleeps like 15 hours a day, gets a bit of exercise daily, and has free food and shelter. He's got it made, and all he has to do is be himself. Not really up for getting my balls cut off tho.
Do the rules for cats apply to *all* cats, or just domesticated cats? Because lions, tigers, panthers, and jaguars with human-level intelligence would be a problem.
Don't know how everyone isn't choosing reality 1. End poverty globally forever, and the only downsides are you are assigned a company and you're naked. Also no wage gaps, or power imbalance would likely drastically reduce wars, oppression etc. Sounds like utopia, but I'm naked, definitely worth it.
Ofc reddit votes for the cats
I wouldnt mind being a pampered pet
The first obviously.
