My choice is among the pink, black, and yellow pills--though they're all morally problematic.
The orange and red pills are nearly pointless. Want to get high four times a day? Well, then take four bong hits. Want to access the Internet six times a day? Well, then turn on your fucking laptop (near limitless knowledge without learning or understanding is not very helpful [I am ignoring the porn aspect and the ability to showoff {"In Donoghue v Stevenson, the House of Lords held. . . ."}]).

black pill easily. go into a cave, pop the pill, and predict the stock market.
The yellow pill nearly does that by giving you the ability to obtain insider information from directors, officers, governmental agencies, etc.
You get to mess with people by ingesting either pill-- the preference comes down to whether you want to learn about a person's past or her future. It also comes down to whether you could handle Looper-like paradoxes. Personally, I was confused at the end of the movie.
-
Yep. Black and Green for me. Shape-shifting would be cool too I suppose, but non-assisted flight has got to be amazing.
I don't actually want to know what people are thinking. Sports isn't worth the death timer. I can probably get weed and whatever other high already. Accessing the internet with my mind is superfluous (if I were still a student it would have more use). The love pill is creepy, don't want to be that kind of person.
-
I picked the Orange and Red. I'd be ballsy and crazy drewsy with the knowledge of Mandark.
Really though, those are my choices. I can handle being alone.
-
Black and pink, let's do this.
And blue is a terrible option. Come on.

It really is because it only lets you master a sport and does not increase your height or athleticism (or is that implied). The earning power of the other pills is significantly greater, and without the tradeoff of ten years shaved of your lifespan.

Yeah, but what if you really wanted to be good at snooker?
-
Clonazepam. Maybe cut with a bit of molly too. Feels good man!
-

Is poker a sport? I guess I could just take the yellow pill live and the black pill online.

I need to hear Drewsy's opinion on the subject.

I was gonna say Yellow and Pink, until I saw the "publicly" exception on black. So black and pink. Just use the black one safely.
Yellow -- seems great, but I think black is the better choice overall.
Black -- get lots of money quickly, manipulate life in amazing ways. Maybe the burden of having that power would be rough though.
Pink -- makes the green pill redundant. You can fly for one hour at a time 3 times a day or you can shape shift into something that can fly for two hours at a time 2 times a day. You can use this to access interesting places and do interesting things. It would be the most fun.
Blue Pill - yeah, this was definitely on body building forums before
Orange pill -- I'll just fly to a medical state with my pink pill or buy tons of weed with the money I make from using the black pill. Or just turn into a budding weed plant with weak stems and shake my buds off (might hurt though)
Red pill -- uh, just no. :lol
Grey pill -- I wouldn't want true love to happen like this...I'd feel like that person is my slave or something. Some creative uses of the black pill could substitute for this anyway.

Hm, that's actually a very good point. Curses.

Black & pink, others seem useless
-
Where's the invisibility option?
-
All of them apart from the blue one.
-

pink pill
-
Fuck that. I want the pill that will make me invisible for as long as I choose. And give me teleportation.
-
Just take the pink pill, commie.
-

then you take the black pill, look 5 years into the future, take the evolved tech from then, bring it back to current time, implement it, look forward 5 years to see how it evolved, implement it in current time, and so on until you can do both of those things. develop it in secret, then kill the people who helped you so the public doesn't get ahold of the tech.
done.
-
Fuck that, seems like a bunch of work. I'll just take the yellow pill and read people's thoughts.
-
I choose green and yellow. It is a little disappointing that green has a time limit, but it does allow me enough time to fly through my morning and evening commute, which would do wonders for my sense of well being. Plus I wouldn't have to spend money on Metrocards, which have been ratcheting up in price over the past few years.
Obviously the yellow pill is an ethical black hole, but I think after a few months of being a total PUA-esque nightmare I would use it to expand my ability to empathize with people. Hopefully.

*Triumph attends a George W. Bush speech in front of a large audience*
Triumph: Fucking yellow pill! Why did you stop working?
-
Then again, with the pink pill I could turn myself into Kate Upton and just sit around feeling my own tits all day.
-
Gonna have to go with the black pill... yellow seems cool but I don't know if I can handle hearing all the shit-talking about me people keep to themselves. Pink pill would be pretty fun too and make a lot of the other pills redundant. Why turn yourself into a super athlete who has 10 years to live when you can pop a pink pill and turn into one for the length of a game?

Better question, why are you a miscer?
A miscer is a member of the misc section of the bodybuilding.com forums. While most of the bodybuilding.com forums are geared towards the bodybuilding lifestyle, with a few exceptions, the misc section is generally where all the unrelated random topics tend to be posted.
Miscers are predominatley male in the 18-34 age bracket. Although many claim to be avid bodybuilders, a lot do not look it judging by their avatar pictures.
Miscers tend to be a cynical, impatient and fickle lot and do not take kindly to unfunny trolling. Said trolls are often dealt with harshly and negged to oblivion.
Most miscers are looked down upon by other members of the forum because they post almost exclusively in the misc section and many do not even work out. It is also where most of the forums trolls congegrate.
To make it as a miscer your main goal should be providing entertainment to the other misc members. Probably the easiest way would be providing comedy relief or posting something informative or of an 'epic' nature.

I'm not. I browsed the board briefly today after a link to the forum was posted in the GAF thread.

Grey Pill. I could basically create a crew of minions to do my bidding.
-
Black + Yellow = rich as fuck
-
Yellow and Green for me. I can't believe so many of you don't care about being able to fly. Seeing into the future would probably make me depressed somehow.
-
Green and pink. I'll shapeshift into a pig and then fly, why would I want to fly as a bird and not stand out at all. Time to troll some drunk people.
-
Yellow and Green for me. I can't believe so many of you don't care about being able to fly.
I live in Winnipeg--who wants to fly in this weather?
The ability to fly is awesome, but, ultimately, I can fly by entering a climate controlled plane in which flights last for more than one hour.
On the other hand, if I were to combine the green and blue pill I could dunk like Jordan in Space Jam.
-

Hells yeah.

This. Also I am lonely.

i would take red and pink so i could be the bad guy from deus ex 1 but look like himu
also i dont need the gray pill because i have it innately :smug
-
Black pill + yellow i guess and regulate myself.
hello Euromillion lottery winnings!

Pink pill makes all other pills redundant. If I want the effects of one of the other pills I would just shapeshift into something analogous to it.
-
I've always wanted to fly, so pretty much just the green pill. I don't want to read people's minds because I know what I think about and there's got to be people much worse than me.
-
There's no drawback to green and it rules. So green.

If someone sees you flying, you might get burned as a witch.

Pink seems cool from a practical joke standpoint but it doesn't say if you can go back to your original form as soon as you want.
-
Don't need no fuckin' Green Pill

Yes, so you can only turn into Green Shinobi or Puddles
-
I think it should make you like Plastic Man where you can turn into a car or a boat or whatever, but you're still the same color.
-

Yup. Also, I stayed away from the black pill because the combination of mortality and general awfulness would just make seeing the future horribly depressing.
Red is sort of pointless if you own a smartphone. But I don't own a smartphone, so I picked it.

Red would be really useful while I'm in school and on rotations but worthless after that

There's no mention of whether you have the ability to land.

Why would you want to be Mandark for 6 hours a day when you can be Mandark for 24?

You can't shapeshift into something that reads minds or predicts the future. Those have chemicals, moving parts. It doesn't work that way.
It says shapeshift into ANYTHING. No stipulations other than time limit. I could just choose to shapeshift into someone who has taken one of the other pills. :smug

Yeti wins this thread.

Votes suicide and suicide only, but Yeti's got a good answer too.

yes, Yeti's IQ is clearly greater than 160
-
Yeah I definitely would go with the yellow pill. If only to know for sure when somebody is lying or if a girl might have a boyfriend. Blue and red seem useless and combining yellow with grey, black, or orange would probably turn me into a sociopath or schizophrenic.
So between green and pink, I think I'd go with pink assuming the pink pill still allows me to retain my regular amount of intelligence and doesn't have any overwhelming animal instincts kick in. And is also instantly reversible so no hunters or anything kill me.
-
Yellow and pink allows for all sorts of manipulation and espionage, be it emotional or corporate. Black pill seems scary to me. I don't want to know the future--I want to control it.
depends on what kind of 'knowing the future,' I guess. If it's like see all the threads and control the future paradoxes be damned, then hell yeah, that and the yellow. I'd bank up, live it up, and then start a religion and rule the world in twenty or thirty years.
If it's the old-timey Twilight Zone knowing the future (in absolutes and usually an awful trick or lesson)...I guess the green? it doesn't say how fast you'd be able to fly. Seems convenient.

Yeti wins this thread.
I had to shapeshift into Mandark to do it though. :(
-
this pill list kinda blows. Pink is too OP. Black is a close second. The rest can more or less be attained with the black/pink combo. patch that shit

but i've always dreamed of playing a video game but irl :derp
-
how am i the orange option, i hate weed.
chose yellow, seems like it would be the most useful one in daily life. you could find out immediately if chicks are into you and when people are lying to you or to win negotiations and you would find out what people really think of you, which would be rough at first but ultimately would shape you into a better person.
-
Green pill for fun. Black for money and power.
-
Pink pill is an endless get out of jail free card. With the pink pill the whole world becomes your consequence-free open world RPG.
They told me I could become anything
So I became Scarlett Johansson's dildo
-
I just want an eternal Xanax with no side effects.
-
The green one doesnt specify speed, but its really the only one thats without any faults. I can fly over to Kentucky, fuck Andy, then skip over to Oklahoma and fuck Joe Molotov. Fly back home, post about it on the internet.
-
If I took the pink pill I'd turn into a toilet in a women's restrooms. Twice a day, every day.

If you had the red pill too, you can post about it on the Internet while flying. Consider.
-
I didnt even notice I could pick two pills. I will have to consider this. I might do the shapeshifter so I can turn into anything you want. I want to be your carbon based love doll.
-
What kind of a based love doll are you currently?
-
Plastic, duh

but they've clearly made an attempt to "balance" them with the drawbacks and cooldowns and such, but failed utterly
-

what do you mean? all xanax is is one big bad side effect. at least all it does for me is make me want to sleep.

You don't need to shape-shift if you want to write an advice column.
edit:
Vos Savant studied philosophy at Washington University in St. Louis despite her parents' desire for her to pursue a more useful subject.
:dead
Vos Savant is of Italian, German,[2] and Austrian ancestry – she is a descendant of physicist and philosopher Ernst Mach
At least someone in the family is accomplished.

Red pill. I am under MK Ultra as we speak.
-
I do the same with Unnatural Selection. Once it gets going you might as well skip to something else. I do that a lot these days.
-
I don't really need a pill to attain the grey pill's effect. I touch people and they love me all the time, if you know what I mean.
-
Orange and Red. I am a lazy fuck to the point that it is literally considered a mental illness. I'd hate the black pill because it will cause me depression.
-
My first inclination is to just take all of them.
