Hypothetical Question: Would you live the next ten years of your life covered by a swarm of tarantulas...

For ten million dollars?

Just pretend they wouldn't bite you, and that you can't kill them or do anything to remove them. They might crawl up your butt or vagina (If you happen to have one of those).

Clarification edit: You can try to live your life as normally as possible during this scenario, meaning you can walk, eat, work, anything. The only way you are impared is that you are covered by a swarm of tarantulas. They would stay away from areas that would hinder your movement while you are in motion.

I wouldn't do it.

Me too, but I kind of feel like it might help me get over it.

The first few days of it would be pretty hellish, though.

a million per year of your life lost (I'm assuming one has to stay perfectly still to keep taratulas in place), it's not enough disbelief

I would do it for a week, max.

what if i have to poo or pee? how do i eat? what about going to work? i'd have to quit my job and i have to pay rent and eat for that year.

maybe if i were fed through tubes, had david blaine poo/pee bags, and some corporate sponsors. even then, it would be a hard sell.

I'm glad you clarified that this was a hypothetical question.

For a moment there, I was worried. sad

I don't think it's worth wasting my precious twenties for $10 million. Maybe when I'm 40, then I'd consider it.

Jesus Christ, these "yeah, maybe" answers!

You guys are either all extremely sarcastic to a man, or entirely fucked up in the head, and probably both.

Which is it? mad

To clarify: In this scenario, you can go about your normal life with these tarantulas swarming around you. You can go to the bathroom, walk, drive, eat, fuck (Assuming you can find someone willing), whatever. You just can't ever remove or kill the tarantulas. They are invincible.

To sweeten the deal, they will all sing together for you on your birthday.
