As the game we’ve all played since our debuts on this earth, Would You Rather is as thought-provoking now as it was when we were asking each other “Would you rather be able to fly or turn invisible?” in the second grade. Only now we get to do so over a big ole glass of red and err on the side of unhinged, adult, and 100% goofy. Nearly anything can be turned into a party game, and having some funny “would you rather” questions up your sleeve for your next gathering will have everyone busting guts and deeply contemplating the most irrelevant and implausible — albeit entertaining — queries.
As you get deeper into the game, the defenses only get stronger and more heated — especially when there are cute little cocktails to go with your cute little questions. There’s truly nothing like witnessing someone take their heart and soul to stand on why having lettuce for hair is much more desirable than having carrot fingers.
While all of these funny “would you rather” questions will make you chuckle, these goofy prompts cover everything from absurd to downright impossible to answer. Below, find the funniest questions for your next game of Would You Rather.
