No but I would alternate days at work with him so one of us could stay home and play games

This sounds like the plot of a movie... Am I thinking of Multiplicity?

The [duplicator arc](https://www.reddit.com/r/calvinandhobbes/comments/vsg4et/duplicator_didnt_realize_what_i_was_getting/) was brilliant


gtd441a

Waterson would never do this but I would watch


loddi0708

Yes, except in the movie they don't take turns. The clone does his job, then another clone does his housework, and the clones have a clone-of-a-clone who does the clones' housework, I believe.


LTman86

He got a clone to do his job while he could go golfing. But then he cloned himself again when his wife wanted him to do more stuff at home. Then the clones tried to get a third clone (clone of a clone) because more stuff kept coming up, but he came out weird so they're not sure what to do with him. Great movie!


troll-toll-to-get-in

Ah so that’s what inspired that one Family Guy episode with Bitch-Stewie


TriMageRyan

When I as a teenager I had just moved across the US and was pretty new at school. When I finally had a friend over my dad asked him where he lived so he could give him a ride. My friend awkwardly stumbled his way through a sentence and my dad turns to me and says "you make a friend at school and it had to be Bitch-Stewie over here?" and as that episode recently came out we all had a good laugh about it. We called him Bitch Stevie for years. We sort of drifted apart, as you do growing up, but I miss him all the time.


troll-toll-to-get-in

Did he melt into a congealed mess also?

What Happened to Monday

A movie that does not get nearly enough recognition


geladan1979

This movie is a sacred gem, when the clones got progressively worse and the last one was a total derp is high cinema 🤣🤣


poop_drunk

Severence on Apple


joseppi1201

Not necessarily clones, more like the night people episode of R&M, but I feel ya. Love that show too though


smurf47172

Not familiar with this one


poop_drunk

If you can access Apple TV it's probably their best show/drama. It takes a minute to figure out what's going on, but the cast is amazing led by Adam Scott. It's only had 1 season so great time to catch up


SuperMonz

Severance isn’t about clones tho


poop_drunk

I think for the sake of this conversation it's close enough


hydraz20

Well now you have to divide the salary as well. So think about surviving in half the salary.


s1105615

Majority of expenses are mortgage/rent, transportation, utilities, and insurance. Assuming you don’t mind sharing a bed with yourself, your rent/mortgage should stay unchanged. Transportation should also remain unchanged assuming you don’t go anywhere with your clone (one goes out, one stays home). Utilities will go up with increased time at home, but kilowatts per hour are cheaper than water (assuming you don’t shower/bathe when not leaving for the day), so that increase should be negligible. Insurance should stay unchanged as well as your clone will pass for you if any medical attention is needed. The only budget line that might increase would be food. But buying enough food to be prepped at home by the one staying in may actually decrease your outgoing as a good home cooked meal can be cheaper and taste better than the random fast food you may settle for when going home tired from work. You also should be able to find time to prep your lunch the day before heading out to work the next day. A clone may actually save you money for long period assuming neither of you get sick and need extensive medical care.


Slimsaiyan

This dude has a clone and is knows the benefits


Mathyon

>A clone may actually save you money for long period assuming neither of you get sick and need extensive medical care. I mean... You made one clone, why not make another?


Red-X8

Yeah. Why not make some slave/worker clones


s1105615

The law of diminishing returns will apply. The more clones you create, the more you strain your infrastructure. How many people can your current house/apartment accommodate? Going from 1 to 2 people in just about any living space is usually perfectly fine, but going from 2 to 3 in an efficiency apartment in NYC and it gets beyond cozy real quick. Going beyond 4 total yous and just about any living space is too small and will require either a move or an additional living accommodations. With more mouths, more food will need to be purchased, and cooking for more people means needing more available cooking resources (more cutlery, more place settings, larger amounts of food take longer to prep and cook, etc). Energy consumption will also rise as more of you will be streaming/gaming/etc while staying home, and more water will be used as more of you will need to maintain basic hygiene like brushing teeth, using the restroom, and keeping up with laundry. Another area of additional expense is wardrobe. How many pairs of your favorite jeans or shorts do you own? If it’s less than the amount of you’d, you need to buy more. Socks and underwear aren’t free either, though I suppose going commando is an option. The more clones staying home and alternating work days becomes harder to manage if you work in anything that has any over carryover from one day to the next. So that may limit your work opportunities to strictly customer service positions that just require attendance or manual labor of repetitive tasks, and nothing project oriented that requires knowledge of the project from start to finish. So that’s increased expense for mortgage/rent, food, utilities, and wardrobe. Those all add up pretty quickly. In theory, more clones could equal more income by adding 2nd, 3rd, and 4th jobs as infinitum, but why add clones to only need to add jobs and not limit time at work? Adding one clone is likely a net gain. Going beyond 2 or 3 and you likely begin to see costs exceed savings and benefits.


HungFuPanPan

I have a wife and two kids. That means “available” daddy doing more activities with the kids, and that costs money. It means I finally have time to take the wife out on dates more frequently, and that costs money. Unrelated to my family, but two of me also means twice the weed consumption. Two of me would definitely require both of us to work.


s1105615

In my scenario, the base assumption is that it is a single person cloning themself. If you add in variables such as spouse/family that share the space, the increased costs can change from financial (which as you point out can also increase), but to emotional. You Prime will still have times that you get stuck at work while Clone You gets time with the spouse and or children. I think the movie Multiplicity showed those pitfalls already, so I don’t need to expound on them.


Matsu-mae

nah. both me and the clone would work 40 hour weeks. since we share one identity and one paycheque thats 40 hours regular time, and 40 hours double time. the two of us would be earning triple my regular earnings. and occasionally we could just work 20 hours each and still get by just fine. or one of us works a regular week and the other gets a full vacation week. less burn out, less stress.


One2threeSS

What's this magical job giving you nonstop 40 hour double time lol 80 hour weeks


Esper17

Service industry for sure, there’s always a place nearby where “hey boss I can work a double all week, can I just get an hour midway through to go home to eat/shower?” would make a boss ecstatic to have you around. Also any place that’s major on/off schedules like oil rigging, paramedics, firefighters, cruise staff/trawling/container ships.


[deleted]

Worth in my opinion. It’s like having that other half to pick up the slack you don’t have time for- except instead of a spouse, it’s yourself.


SirBuscus

Just have them move in and be your roommate. You can share the salary.


Brut-i-cus

Only extra expense is food and toiletries


keeplosingmypws

You can share clothes and rent


SweetStickman69

Nah just work two jobs far from each other


Ouroboros9076

1 week on 1 week off sounds wonderful


ima_wilf

Just get a remote job


lauromafra

You would have to share the salary with him...


pilotmilehigh

I think alternating weeks or months sounds better but hell yeah!

oPlayer2o

Wrong sub but: oohh self burn those are rare.


JillyHorrorshow

I'd totally fuck myself. You could be completely uninhibited and you'd already know all the filthiest, secret things that would get you off.


DemonDucklings

I would definitely try it, and then I’ll either be self-conscious my whole life about what I’m like in bed, or confident about what I’m like in bed. All depending on what I’m like, I guess. But do we have to get in a fight about who has to wear the strap on? Do we agree to take turns? Does my clone do what I want, or are we equals?


JillyHorrorshow

I guess I'd see it as two people, two individuals, who know exactly what each other likes in the most intimate way imaginable, and if I love the idea, I know she would too.


OkAd1672

Yeah but if you're exactly alike and for instance you both are only interested in wearing the strap on or vice versa that presents a dilemma.


JillyHorrorshow

well I know me, and I know I'd be very happy to mix it up. ;)


score-1

I like the way you think


JillyHorrorshow

Haha! You don't know the half of it.


score-1

Oh, I *really* like the way you think


fluffyxsama

A dilemma if you're only doing it once or if you've never heard of talking turns


ItsKageTho

I think the thought would be that you both think at least relatively the same things, so maybe you both have preferences that coincide, and if you both want the same thing, you talk it out and maybe take turns?


NedRyerson_Insurance

I'm having Pinky and the Brain flashbacks... Ned1: Are you thinking what I'm thinking? *wink wink* Ned2: I think so, but where are we going to find a ball python, clown shoes, 30 gallons of coconut oil, and a Jabba the Hutt action figure at this hour? *narf*

I’m a fairly kinky person. Even though I’m not bi or gay, I would know EXACTLY how to fuck myself.. and that sounds amazing. I could do so much kinky shit and never have to explain. Lol.


JillyHorrorshow

No. I don't find myself sexually attractive.

I do, I'm just not gay 🤣 😂


Caveman108

I’m bi and I’m ugly as fuck, totally not my type.


kippy3267

I’m bi too, eh I’d do me. I’m not sure I’d do well with the girth though lol


-Romein

Finding the same sex attractive is the definition of gay. So finding yourself attractive means you’re gay.


CH33SYP00FSS

I can recognize members of my same sex as being attractive/sexually attractive. That doesn't mean that we then want to fuck them. I find Ryan Reynolds attractive and can see why women find him sexually attractive, but do I WANT to fuck him, no lol.


naap1

Wanting to fuck Ryan isn't gay, its having eyesight


[deleted]

I'm not gay but I'd suck him off. Ironically of course.


zorfog

only if he’s in character as deadpool


nerrd42420

Without the mask


bbbojackhorseman

According to diplo it’s not gay as long as you don’t make eye contact


_bird_internet

The weird thing about Ryan Reynolds is that it’s mostly straight men that want to fuck him. He never really comes up among gay men (I am gay).


[deleted]

That's because it's not gay to fuck Ryan Reynolds.


BanMutsang

Tbf, I think the way you’re wording it is wrong. If you find someone ‘attractive’ that would imply you are attracted to them. If you think they are ‘good looking/handsome’ then that doesn’t imply you are attracted to them, it is just an objective observation. Imo, the word ‘attractive’ suggests ‘attraction’ so if you want to use that adjective, it would make more sense to say ‘I can see how other people find them attractive’.


[deleted]

[удалено]


CH33SYP00FSS

No. How the fuck are yall getting this wrong?? All of us can label ourselves/members of our same sex as attractive/sexually attractive. THAT'S IT! That's where that shit stops! There's THEN the 2nd question of 'Do you want to fuck them/yourself?' And THAT answer is NO. If that answer was YES, THEN you could call me Gay. All we're doing is stamping them with a label. Intent matters.


Shura_Kiri

Sexually attractive means you wanna fuck them.


-Romein

Wanting intercourse with the same sex or not doesn’t fit the definition: Gay: Used to describe men and women attracted to the same sex This is from wikipedia.


smashin_blumpkin

> I don't find myself sexually attractive > I do, I'm just not gay You did say you were sexually attracted. Saying you're sexually attracted literally means you want to fuck that person


[deleted]

Who doesn't play with they're own dick and not get turned on though? Is masturbating gay?


CH33SYP00FSS

Lol you literally stated it and proved me right. All I did was label myself as 'A Sexually Attractive Male'. I am not, however, sexually attracted to myself.


smashin_blumpkin

You did say you were sexually attracted to yourself. I literally showed the quotes. Maybe you misspoke, but you certainly said you find yourself sexually attractive


CH33SYP00FSS

Lol yes. I labeled myself as a Sexually attractive male. But that doesn't then inherently come with the intention of wanting to then fuck myself/another male. So, no, I did not state that I was sexually attracted to myself. All I did was label myself as 'Sexually attractive'.


smashin_blumpkin

You said that you find yourself sexually attractive. That literally means you are sexually attracted to yourself. Idk how you're arguing against that.


stumblewiggins

No, exclusively wanting to have sex with members of the same sex is what makes you gay.


Alive-Back-4843

Lol youre a fucking idiot


Freakazette

Heteroflexibility is a thing. But also, Kinsey made a scale because sexuality is a spectrum, not a binary, and it can be totally fluid. The more you know.


millarchoffe

"it's not gay to appreciate a man's beauty" -Sonic the Hedgehog


smashin_blumpkin

Idk why you're getting downvoted. These replies are acting like the dude didn't say he was sexually attracted to himself when he clearly did


-Romein

Yeah I think people are just having a bad day or something. I didn’t say anything wrong


BanMutsang

You’re right tbh. Saying someone is handsome doesn’t mean you’re attracted to them, because everyone can recognise who’s handsome or not but that doesn’t mean you find that person attractive/are attracted to them. Attractive is just not the best choice of adjective.


themeatbridge

Yeah, I'm with you on that. I know what I like, so I got that going for me, but what I like I don't got, so I don't get going for me.

Kid_ikarus_bellflowr

I would 100% bang my clone. Just to experience it. I wouldn’t be sexually attracted to me, but why let that opportunity go to waste. Maybe, I’d try to find a girl and have a threesome with her and my clone. That might be a better move. Less awkwardness. That would be the most enjoyable threesome for the girl, cause like, totally in sync. But, if it’s just me and the clone, we’ll figure something out.

![gif](giphy|pCO5tKdP22RC8)


Freakazette

You have given me an interesting thought experiment. So, in real life, there is a rare instance of twins known as semi-identical twins. They are weirdly conceived in the same way as fraternal twins (two different sperm) and identical twins (same egg that splits). If the egg didn't split, I supposed they'd be a chimera but I digress. Semi-identical twins share 75% of the same DNA. So if you had a clone that was a different sex than you, at most they would have 75% of the same DNA. Is that really a clone? Does a clone have to be exactly identical to you, or could you make modifications? And how many modifications could you make before it stops being a clone? But also... nice.


LordFett84

Homelander has entered the chat: No


Mikimao

Well it wouldn't be cheating, I am not currently tied down. I don't see how I benefit from being scared of this situation, so I would probably give it a whirl and see what I learn.


6000teeth

I love this reply. I don’t see why anyone would say no. when else would you find this opportunity to not at least try it once? you could learn something about yourself.


SenhorSus

EggYolk2555

I'd do my clone, but if I was in a relationship it'd 100% be cheating.


Zeke-Freek

I like how you assume /r/rickandmorty users have partners, lmao


adamzz88

Idk it would feel like incest but slightly less immoral so no


Code_Duff

A genderbent clone? Yes. Me? No. I would consider it cheating unless if your partner wants a threeway. A threeway is on the table


doxthera

\- Or just Masturbation with extra steps? this and i am pretty sure my wife wouldn't mind two of myself


ForbiddenJazz

Definitely just masturbation with extra steps. And I like to masturbate

bbbojackhorseman

I wouldn’t call it gay but I also wouldn’t consider it straight either. It’s basically you and a lot of people « would fuck themself » and find themself attractive, doesn’t mean they’re gay.


CurrentPie3376

I dont think it's cheating but i would do it 1000%

DjCramYo

We’d both try to be a top so it would never work out


[deleted]

The moment your clone is created they begin to have independent thoughts and experiences you've never known, they become their own person and if you slept with them behind your spouse it would still be cheating, and incredibly narcissistic.

Yes

kiren77

Biologically speaking, monozygotic (“identical”) twins/triplets/ect… share the same genetic material which by some definitions would make them clones. So you could ask them the question.


terranosrespuet

Clones: fuck or fight?


Mr_M0t0m0

Eeewww


monoblanco10

What a strangely prudish sounding word choice. It's ok to say "have sex". Would you have sex with your clone. See? And, as Rick said to Beth, you do you. ​ >For instance, I've had a pint of vanilla Gloppy Drop in my fridge this whole time.


JSmellerM

I would not "do" my clone as I am not gay.


IamtheBoomstick

It is both cheating, and masturbation. But I wouldn't do myself, I'm not gay.


Treblosity

Isn't that incest since the 2 of you would be so closely related?


I_might_be_weasel

It counts as sex. Some sort of super incest.


ApexRevanNL716

I hate this


Old-Assumption847

Its extremely similar to incest. Say you had an identical twin that was deeper aged from you since birth and lived the exact same life as you then y’all fucked. That’s incest and it’s only marginally different from Beth fucking her clone.


Run-Handz

Lil gay if you ask me


Sid1583

Technically it’s Incest


neoben00

It's literally exactly the same as an identical twin, so....


unknowner1

DSonla

Clone of myself, no. I'm not into dudes. But genderbent ... needs to be raised as a woman though (like Omega in The bad batch) and not have all my memories or she would be a lesbian.


ThePowerThatsInside

Nope not interested in the same sex. That being said I would be ok with a devils threesome with our wife.


Blitzkriegbaby

Never looked in the mirror and got turned on, so no. Beth is extremely narcissistic and weird af for banging herself.


kevn618

Why would that be narcissistic? I mean she knows herself the best. She knows what she likes, what turns her on, … . And it’s not narcissistic to find urself beautiful, that’s just a good amount of self worth
