Ok, you are standing in a room, with 4 thugs surrounding you with guns (and dont say youre gonna beat em up, it ruins the story)
You are staring at a table that is in front of you. It has two pieces of candy on it, a red one, and a blue one.
The leader of the thugs opens the door behind you walks around to greet you with a vicious smile.
The thugs are motionless as he enters, but they almost look afraid of their 5 foot leader.
He points to the candy on the table. "See these two pieces of candy?" he says in a rich new york accent.
You dont look up, but you nod your head slowly.
"I want you to eat one of these candies." he continues. "One of them will make you strong. It will make you more powerful than all of my friends here combined." The thugs shuttered as he said this.
"And the other?" you say quietly.
"The other?" He laughed a terrible laugh that echoed through the walls.
"That one wont make you too strong, kid. It'll poisen you, and youll have only five minutes to live."
You imagine yourself writhing and suffering on the tiled floor.
"What if I dont eat any of the candy?" you blurt out, because it was one of those questions that has been in your head for too long, but you already know the answer to.

"My buddies will blow your brains out.
So what'll it be? Blue or Red?"
Which candy would you choose?
