    1. feels like a trap, once you burn through all your fat you'll be impossibly unhealthy

    2. is a trap too, if you stop gaining weight from eating then you might trap yourself in the same situation as above

    3. unless you hunt for food, bad idea

    4. decent option, but it doesn't mention if there's any pain during the growth period

    5. good option, as long as you have control over your strength

    6. very bad option, sounds nice but you will go insane

    7. doesn't say if online or IRL, having many followers IRL is not desirable

    8. dangerous, erasing any meaningful memories is dangerous

    9. the only good option with no consequences i can think of. i'll take 3 of those

    Except how do people generally get money from taking pills? Hint: it's not often because they are happy with the results.

        i don't think a pill can give you more followers either (not without first setting up a cult and/or a drug enterprise)

          5,6,9 only ones that really make a big difference in the grand scheme of things.

          Being super strong would mean you’d likely end up doing a lot of physical activity for yourself and others, but it would also mean that your resting metabolism is significantly higher than baseline which handily takes care of the fat/weight problem.

          Being taller would be fine I guess but, and I say this as a woman in the bottom 25% in height, it wouldn’t actually make any substantial difference in life, beyond being able to touch the floor in a standard chair.

          Having a lot of money takes care of shopping without stopping it, As well as the followers thing (rich people are often famous, and if not they can dump some money into something to make them famous if they want) and I feel being happy over-rides forgetting your ex, cuz you wouldn’t feel bad about it.

            Well, 6 is just learning disability and 9 is a missing moral compass.

                5 could monkey’s paw kill you like most of the rest of these. I think 4, 8, and 9 are your best bet if you have to pick 3 and you want to survive in a non-terrifying way.

                  Why not throw in 5 for ease of life. Washer died, can carry it to the curb with ease and not have to ever bother someone else. I realize you can just hire people but I feel like super strength is ultimately just a lazy perk, and damn I'm lazy. Back hurts from playing with your kids, psh, they way about the same as a penny, wouldnt even need to think about it.

                    All you need is 6, the rest are just things you hope will make you happy.

                        1 already covers 2, and I have enough of 6. Happy all the time would probably turn me into an even lazier person. A little concern now and then keeps me engaged with the world.

                        1, 5, 9. Health, strength, $$$$$.

                            1 is the monkey's paw answer and a trap. Fat is necessary for survival. Fats literally make up the outside of every cell in your body.

                            2 is still dangerous, because it might just be tapeworm eggs.

                            Is 3 just a servant who shops for you? Or is it just that you are no longer addicted to compulsive shopping?

                            4 Will cause you the most agonizing pain of your life as virtually every bone and muscle gets ripped apart and re-knit, and as someone who's 6'4, it has its upsides, but having literally everything made for people shorter than you REALLY sucks, from doorways and light fixtures, even to rollercoasters which nearly remove your legs because of awful design (or just won't close over your shoulders)

                            5 is nice. Go with 5. It'll be painful, but potentially worth it in a pinch, as long as it also grants you control of that strength.

                            6 is another trap, since small amounts of stress are actually really important, and in order to be constantly happy, your brain would lose the ability to feel it unless it continually increased the dopamine drip. Eventually, you would kill for the ability to stop.

                            7 I mean, sure, if that's what you want. Would be nice to know what kind of followers? Are they going to be religious and try to pull a Life of Brian on you?

                            8 is the worst, because you have no control over the extent of the memory wipe. This is existentially terrifying

                            9 is the safest, but then you go and read that post about why winning the lottery means you're fucked.

                            The surefire safest calls are probably 9, 7, and 3, since they wouldn't actually affect your body, unless you're the kind of person who likes playing roulette with the sort of pills you get for free on the street.

                                2 would eventually kill you, just more slowly than 1. Unless you never forget to eat and are always able to.

                                    How. Two is just don’t gain weight. It doesn’t say anything about losing weight or about healthy nutrition. For those of us with a tendency to gain, this is all positive.

                                    My most pressing health concern under my control is my weight. As an adult already overweight, I would be very happy to at least never weigh more than I do now

                                        4, 5, 9.

                                        4 because while the process might be painful, aside from the process it's not an extreme change. And because I needed to pick 3 and only 3 options.

                                        5 because that super strength would certainly come in handy if it's controllable. It would suck if everything gets absolutely crushed by accident the moment you attempt to interact with it.

                                        9 because why the hell not. You can't be happy all the time, and the rest of the options seem to be a net negative. So at least being able to live comfortably or account for #5 would be okay

                                          Noy choosing 5 and 6 is plain stupid. While always being happy probably means some social issues, these can be mitigated by learning to fake sadness. And super strength is obviously super useful.

                                          I'm assuming this isn't a genie moment where super strength means you destroy everything because you don't control it or whatever.
