Lose your long-term memory, so you can't recall your childhood, relatives, early birthday parties, grade school and high school, first kiss, first SO, etc.?

Or lose your short-term memory, so you can still remember your childhood, etc., but you forget a person's name 2 seconds after you were introduced, etc.

Fried squash.  I can only take so much of tomatoes.  They make everything taste all tomatoey.

Pistol.

My weapons of choice take more involvement. I mean, why bust out the vice or the wood chipper for a mere burglar?

On that note...

You have a very personal vendetta and you are about to kill the person who done you wrong.

No weapons are allowed and you have to do this by hand.
Which body part to you attack first?

Neck or Groin

Neck or Groin

A properly-executed blow to the groin can incapacitate a person...make him go "Owoooo!" and collapse to the floor in disabling pain.  OTOH, a properly executed blow to the neck can kill someone.  So, since it's a vendetta thing and he/she done me wrong, I'd go for the neck.  He'd be daid, and I'd be doing time.

Be trapped in a cage with two ravenous coyotes or one ravenous wolverine?

(Ps - I just like the Biblicalness of smiting somebody with the jawbone of an ass.)

Two ravenous coyotes.

I'd fight them like that movie 'The Grey'.
Wolverines can take down prey much greater than its size.

Yeah, I'd opt for the coyotes, too.  On a nature show, I saw a wolverine back down a bear!  The bear must have weighed 15 or 20 times what the wolverine weighed, but the wolverine was extremely aggressive, continually snapping his jaws, and snarling at the bear.  I think the bear was afraid of losing a leg.  Eventually, he gave up.

Tough one.  Damn, Jules, you can't even leave a guy an arm?  But I'd rather lose both arms.  They can work near-miracles with prostheses, these days.

Fly in a 2-engine plane that requires both engines to stay aloft, or a 3-engine plane that requires all 3 engines to stay aloft.  This is a classical thought experiment in the field of probabilities.

My hands are not as steady as they once were, so I'd let the other guy do the operation.

Jules, imagine that there are 3,000 engines in the world, and that you have a 3,000-engine airplane that requires all 3,000 engines to stay aloft.  Whatever the failure rates of engines is, the more engines you need to stay aloft, the more likely it is that one of those engines that fails will be on your airplane.  We said that if just one of those 3,000 engines fails, your plane is going down.  So, since there are 3,000 engines in the world and they're all on your airplane, and since engines have a failure rate (whatever it is), it's a certainty that at least one of your engines will fail, and your plane will fall out of the sky.

Of course, a 3-engine plane that needs all 3 engines to stay aloft is far less risky than a 3,000-engine plane that requires all 3,000 engines to stay aloft.  But even less risky is a 2-engine plane that requires only its 2 engines to stay aloft.  Of course, no one would make such a plane, because if either engine fails, the other engine would be of no help.  smile
