Gaining

Let's say there's this facility you can stay in for free the rest of your life. It's really nice, you don't have to work, there are people to serve you and take care of you...but you're required to eat a great deal and get as fat as possible. You'll almost certainly become immobile, but they'll be good at making that easy for you.

And you have to decide now...you can't sleep on it. The offer will expire by then.

What would you do?

I'd take them up on it in a heartbeat. Provided that I could still leave this facility from time to time.

If I had to stay there for the rest of my life then I'd have to say no. I'd still want to get out and see friends from time to time *while mobility allowed*.

But yes, I'd do it without hesitation.

Of course you could leave. It's not a prison.

Then definitely. I'd jump at the chance to not have to worry about how to get enough food to gain, and to get a place to stay for free.

That would be the best.

Maybe that's the business model. Feeders would have to pay to work there.

True, if you want to scale mountains or something.

But since you wouldn't have to work, it would open up some possibilities. Writing, composing, quilt making, whatever.

I'd do it. Despite the apprehension of becoming immobile, if I'm sure I'll be happy there, I'll take the plunge.

How do I book in?
