You're walking down the street on a beautiful summer day. You're wearing your favorite romper/romphim. You feel very pretty. The weather is beautiful; sunny out with a slight breeze.

You look up to see, inexplicably, a perfect clone of yourself approaching. The clone is a perfect duplicate in every way, except for one thing; it is wearing a pretty sundress.

The clone notices you as well and suddenly starts running towards you, shouting expletives. You can tell the clone intends to inflict bodily harm on you. You have only moments to prepare.

Who would win; you in a romper, or you in a sundress?

    Hmm, my first thought was me in my romper because if we got into a physical fight I wouldn't flash anyone...but that doesn't make any sense as to who would win.

    In theory it would be a very fair fight, strength and skill wise, me vs. me, but wardrobe is the advantage or disadvantage in this situation

    So the clone in the sundress would win because there are more options...
    #1 more flexibility of movement in a dress, to kick, run, jump etc.
    #2 I could tear the straps off the sundress and use them as a restraint if I could get close enough
    #3 I could take the dress off quickly and throw it over the head of the romper clone and have an advantage that way too, effectively taking away their vision

    Romper because I would have more free range of motion to do a round house kick.

    It would be a tie because both versions would be equally as awesome then we'd go have beers.

    I wonder if my clones would have independent thoughts...or if they would be able to predict each others actions and strategies. That could be a dilemma.

    I would probably win because I'm not a very good fighter.

    My clone would likely die in this fight to the death, because I would go out in the buff before I ever wore a romper.

    Ooh it's a difficult one.

    Sundress clone would probably be wearing some sort of heel. Heels can be used as deadly weapons. Plus sundress me would have shaved/waxed legs and that always means business.

    However romper me could high kick the other *kitten* without fear of exposing the sacred area to battle. Plus romper me is probably a hipster and could use the man bun powers of persuasion and annihilate sundress me with patchouli oil and my low fat sugar free soya mocha (hold the chocca) unicorn latte.

    I'm going with Romper clone for the win.

    my sundress, is it made of tear-away material?




    ... and as importantly, is it a leopard print?

    no i said it look like aspirin and it was suppository!

    What kind of *kitten* aspirin are you taking?!

    Apparently the kind not bought at the drug store but on the street corner instead.

    You won't wear the romper, but what about the sundress? B)

    Sundress me..... At that point I've got nothing to lose

    Oh hahaha I'd say romper. The romper-me would have to be in an I-don't-give-a-$&@% mood to wear a romper so that would carry over into her fighting style.

    Excellent, important question.

    Romper me. Because, in this scenario, it seems sundress me is on the offense. Knowing myself, if I'm running wildly and cursing, I'm all in my feelings and *kitten*--overemotional. Thus, bound to make a mistake. Romper me would just post up and play defense. Maybe step to the side and trip myself. Then we could both laugh. We love seeing people fall.

    Ok, I re-read the question…sundress clone charges romper clone so…sundress clone is the aggressor.
    Further thoughts on why my sundress clone would win.

    Assuming that the clones have different dispositions (based on my personality, no judgement here on clothing choice)

    I imagine my clone who chose to wear a romper would be “high maintenance” and possibly a bit of a diva. One thing holding her back from physically fighting would be fear of wrecking her trendy clothes (and hair, nails, etc). These are some of her disadvantages.

    I had imagined sundress clone would be more easy going and have more well-rounded life skills. She wouldn’t be afraid to get messy. She would have more confidence and adaptability, and these were the attributes that would help her win…but seeing how she charges romper clone, sundress clone is clearly a more dominant and aggressive personality and that combined with her above listed skills would definitely help her kick romper clones *kitten*.

    Never underestimate a girl in a classic dress style.

    I've changed my mind about the romper. I would rip off my clothes and then attack.

    I just love how much thought you put into these questions :lol: I remember the bug apocalypse one haha!

    These are my favourite! "what would you do" type questions. They keep me thinking for hours of all the possibilities!
    And I'm not done...
    I still have to consider an opposite opinion and why that would work! How romper could win... Hmm
