It's too dangerous... How about...? Forum Game

[LaurenM]

So, this game is to basically point out the dangerous points in something very simple. I got this idea off this conversation my friend and I had a few months ago.

Person 1: How about staying at home and sleep?
Person 2: It's too dangerous. The roof could collapse and you wouldn't be able to escape. How about going to McDonald's and eating a burger?

Basically, you just make something very banal and boring for the 'How about' part, and be very picky and paranoid for the 'It's too dangerous' part.

I'm starting. I'll be using Person 2's 'How about'.

It's too dangerous. What if a flock of kamikaze-loving flying ice cream trucks fly by and crash into us?! How about we get a baguette from the cupboard?

The baguette could be horrifically stale and we could drop it on our feet and it would impale us. O_O That was the French's secret weapon, you know... stale baguettes.

Or it could be diseased and house a family of rats inside and we would die.

How about we drink seven Red Bulls infused with alcohol and do some drugs instead?

(That one shouldn't be too difficult. XD XD XD)

[L.S.Trendom]

But the Red Bulls might be mislabelled and instead be, like, Bug Juice, or something else without caffeine!
And the drugs? We might begin hallucinating and find dressing up in tutus and ten-feet-high top hats a good idea, along with dancing on the Empire State Building. And then someone who hates bad dancing might shoot us.

How about we just set some stuff on fire?

It's too dangerous. What if someone is scared and puts out our fire, and they accidentally spray us with the fire extinguisher and we drown in the white foamy stuff?

How about we have a party on the roof?

[LaurenM]

It's too dangerous. You might choke from the Pepsi, cough horribly, lose your balance and spatter like a watermelon on the pavement.
How about we befriend some aardvarks?

[L.S.Trendom]

It's too dangerous. The aardvarks might be adverse to people who considered partying on a roof; they might try killing us with packing peanuts.

How about we just flop on the ground?
