  • assuming this means hanging out with an exact clone of myself:

    we would play a game of chance to see who gets the laptop and who gets the pc, then we would play minecraft together.

    we could also play card games, chess, or some board game, although i wouldn’t really talk to the other one since there wouldn’t really be a point or anything new to learn that i couldn’t learn by just thinking (as we would be the same person).

    oh, we could also watch shows or a movie but i dont think it would feel like hanging out since we’d both just sit quietly and watch it.

    so yeah, i would hang out with myself, and i wonder how rock-paper-scissors would go

    “name five of their songs” questions person A’s (the one wearing the band t-shirt) knowledge of the band.

    “name five women who trust you” questions person B’s (the one who asked the 1st question) relationships with women in their life.

    therefore “name five women who trust you” is much more loaded than “name five of their songs”, making it a response that is, perhaps, too rude and unnecessary. although, assuming person B asked person A to name the songs unprompted (this is probably what usually happens), this could be an appropriate counter-question as sometimes a ruder response is necessary when dealing with annoying people.

    For people who have not watched it, but don’t want spoilers, here’s a spoiler-free version of the text in the spoilers:

    No 'The Good Place' spoilers here

    (paraphrased) Being a good person is hard because something that might seem good will always have unintended side effects.

    (quoted from OP, with spoilers or info related to the show removed) “e.g. You buy flowers for you mom on her birthday. Nice gesture and surely going to make you a good person, right? Wrong! It’s actually bad, because you ordered them from a website owned by an evil corp, and that evil corp did a lot of evil things with your money, the delivery driver’s van caused a lot of pollution, etc. Ordering them from the local shop wouldn’t have been any better since they don’t source them locally. Etc and etc.”
