A mad scientist has a shrink/grow ray and you will be hit with it. You will either be 100 times larger (200 m tall) or 100 times smaller (2 cm tall) for one week.

Because of movie logic you will not die or suffer any huge health impacts, but you must make it through the week.

Do you go big? Or do you go small?

How will you spend your week?

I added some units since this isn't by volume, it's by height.

Yes you can see small things better while tiny.

No you won't get squished when hit with they ray because you are in a house.

Your problems begin after you change size.

@futurebird Imagine the calorie needs of being huge. What would I eat? Seems like there is a ton of stuff to eat at small scales. My biggest danger as a tiny person would probably be my cats.

@btrinen @futurebird I thought about the food angle for being large, but it's one week: you shouldn't starve in that time anyway, and I figure you could probably get in on some "Largest [Whatever]" food-based Guinness World Records in that time.

A few dozen boxes of cereal mixed with sticks of butter should be enough calories to keep the tummy from rumbling for a bit.

Water might mean popping a hydrant, unless you live near some nice clean lakes.

@david @kawunngg @futurebird @btrinen Let's not be too quick to dump on a potential green alternative to the Haber process. It's free* fertiliser, after all.

*ignoring whatever it takes to power the mad science ray

You had to put “dump” in there. 😹

@DamonWakes @david @kawunngg @futurebird @btrinen hire yourself out to any project attempting to put organics into desertified environments?

....are your gut bacteria giant sized too, and do they remain that way after you deposit them?
