Would you trust your clone?

[bad rider]

Wait maybe I'd set out to kill myself and upon completion realize i was the clone all along!
Right I'm gonna kill me before i have the chance to kill myself.

 

[Ignignoct]

Wonder what would happen if I slept with myself? Is it cloncest. But beyond that I would probably trust myself as I am the only person who I trust, beside my voices anyway. Oh the fun I could have together, I'd always have someone to watch my back, unless he's just as unaware of the world as I am in which case we'd both be screwed

If you jerked each other off, would it be gay or just masturbation?

Technically whatever you did would be sex with yourself would it make you gay. Ahhh a true question for the ages

If its penetration then it is gay, if it isn't its masturbation.

Or!...

You could accept that sex is ultimately just nerve endings rubbing up against each other and the comfort of being mutually vulnerable with another human being who accepts you, and not worry about obeying sexual absolutes; mentally and emotionally free to foster mutual pleasure and comfort with those you trust enough to share yourself with. I guess this would be highly-selective pansexuality.

But yes, gay sex is gay sex, and you and your clone wouldn't do it if you didn't want to, and there would be no shame if you did.

If a straight dude were to ever wonder what it's like, and I know that there's no one here like that because we're all big, manly, vag-munching men, who better to experiment with than your clone? =p

Devil's Advocate, here.

I would totally trust myself. After all, I'm a stand-up guy.

We would fairly share workloads, and use our combined strengths responsibly and maturely, to better our lives and the lives of those around us.

I would NOT let him sleep with my girlfriend though. That's my territory. We'd have to try and get her cloned, or get him to find his own girl. Or maybe he could cruise for chicks, and we could take turns swapping back and forth between them. Hehe.

Wow... maybe I'm NOT such a stand-up guy, on second thought.

But what if he slept with your girl behind your back? I mean, it's not like she'd ever know the difference... You're clones after all.

He wouldn't, because I'M not the kind of guy who would do that.

Well in his eyes, it's his girlfriend right? And in your eyes it's your girlfriend, right? so in his eyes you would be sleeping with his girlfriend, and then (again; in his eyes) you would be the kind of guy to do such a thing.....

Oh dear God, knowing that there is another creature that has the exact same thoughts as me is too damn creepy... I'd kill her, and fast. I don't want her to accidentally let anything slip, who's to say it's a perfect clone?

You realise she'll be thinking the same thing, right? That should make matters interesting

My clone is a jerk.

 

[Optimus Hagrid]

Actually, there's another thought. If you and your clone had EXACTLY the same mindset, wouldn't that make it techinally impossible/very hard for you to actually interact with with it, since you'll both be thinking/doing what each other will be at the same time?

Well... without you both interrupting each other every single time you say anything.

Okay, I have brain constipation.

[arrgh I didn't mean to double post sorry]

The constant random effects of existing in different spaces would be enough to mentally distance yourself from yourself and establish a period of time for you to talk to yourself and calibrate your plans with yourself further without interrupting yourself.

 

[Ryuuzoji]

Good point. That line of thinking also completely overules any shceming behind your own back. You would know. I know that if I make a scheme, i allways have a follow-up, a back-up and a counter, so that if anyone shceme against me i would be able to counter. Did anyone read the lastest Artemis fowl, where he goes back in time and has a stretegic fight with himself?

BTW: Would communication be necessary? You would both think the same and make the same conclusions right?

 

[Umwerfer]

nope, don't even trust myself^^ would've been fun to sparr with him though, gotta be some sort of achievement for beating the crap out of yourself xD

 

[CertifiedWaffle]

I would beat her up!

 

[Umwerfer]

I would beat her up!

How do you win against who knows your every move though?

They'd just end up brawling with each other, in a flurry of ripped clothes and torn underwear.

...

What?...

 

[shirin238]

gheghe, not really, but if he is the more succesfull one than I know that he won;t fail at committing suïcide ^^ so I don't have to put up with him for long

 

[Azazcyh]

Make sure we are never seen together that way one can always be used for an alibi.

Then again I'm an dick so i'd probably stab myself in the back eventually.

So no I wouldn't.

 

[sqwalnoc]

damn this is a hard one..
If i was doubled and it was impossible to determine which was the original one, i'd probably trust me. but I know that if I was the clone iI'd be trying to be take over the original me's life, so i wouldn't trust them for shit
I think the doubling situation would be awesome!! it would be like having the best firend you've ever known! and after a while, both of you would of become slightly different from eachother, so it would be even more interesting. the possibilites for mischief are endless

 

[gamshobny]

I would trust myself... we'd probably regulate going to school, gaming and sleeping to form an effecient unit bent on enjoying ourselves as much as possible. During exams, I just have to go to the bathroom, my double takes my place and fills in everything he knows. Easy, fast, effecient, slick... where can I get one?

 

[hopeneverdies]

I can't even trust myself. Why should I trust someone who at the first chance would stab me? I mean the other students at my school are conspiring against me Julius Caesar style. And he would lead the assassination

 

[CertifiedWaffle]

Well it would be a similiar scenario like in Tomb Raider where you fight the clone but trick her into falling into a hole. That's what I would do.

What?...

It's funny because it would most likely happen. Haha.

 

[FinalGamer]

Absolutely not.

 

[wewontdie11]

Hell yes I would. I'm a very trustworthy person. It'd be pretty sad if I couldn't even trust myself, never mind anybody else.
