    This is a simple question (at least those who have seen the movie "The Matrix"): Would you take the Red pill or the Blue pill?

    If the choice was offered to me I would stay in Wonderland and see how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

    Its been too long ... red = learn the Truth, blue = forget everything and enjoy the dream ... right?

    If so, red.

    I try to live by the truths that have been revealed to me ... I couldn't ignore this one.

    Red. Truth hurts, but I am a masochist. And I don't want to be caddle for the rest of my days.

    Very tough choice.

    Could I live without a juicy steak?

    Yes (Although just barely :D )

    Do I want to learn all fighting technices available?

    Yes

    Could I leave my loved ones behind

    Yes (I'll be saving them anyway)


    You know.....it comes only to one question really:

    Do I want to meet the woman in the red dress

    Hell yeah :cool:

    Hmmm. Waking up violently in a tub of goo, getting flushed like a turd, nearly drowning, learning that my entire sense of being and reality is a lie, eating snot-flavored oatmeal stuff every meal of every day...sounds familiar. Oh yeah - that was high school. Been through that already.

    Blue pill, please. Thanks

    By the way - Did anybody else notice that the blue and red pills look exactly like Nyquil and Dayquil caps? Matrix or no matrix, at least you won't have a runny nose. :p

    I'd probably jump out the window (I'm not good with life changing decisions). Anyway... I'd take the Red Pill then sell out to the bad guys and go back. Just kidding. I really don't know... I too wonder what would happen if you took both. :confused:

    I'd probably take the blue one, although I do like the truth... yep. Red one's for me.

    Although it's the cliched thing to do, yes, I'd take the Red Pill.

    Well, if it were Cherry-flavored.

    Red, and I will certainly regret it. But then again, I can always doublecross the others, become somebody important and then go out, and get some digital steak. :D

    Hm i guess if you take both,
    a)you create a rift in multiverse and destroy everything in sight
    b)you die
    c)you pass through the matrix and the real world for an eternity (ugh)

    Why bother just take the red pill and do ju-jitsu

    HELL YEAH!

    [​IMG] :cool: :roll: :D The MATRIX 4EVER!! :spin: :rolling: :roll:
    I do love smilies very much. :D again
    It is the very best movie I've ever seen (including lots of 007's) and I'd take the red pill just to learn the cool walking up the walls.
    point is that you wouldn't know the horrible/great life after the red pill until you took it.
    Any other matrix lovers on the boards?
