psycho babble
if you had a choice, would you rather be a victim of mental agony, or physical torture? oh, and there is no third choice. i mean, yeah, it's a morbid question to ask, but i was thinking about it while i was watching the third test match between india and pakistan. it's like... sportsmen get paid for falling. that's it. u go out on a field, take a fall attempting to catch a ball, and go home with $10,000. playing sport doesnt take too much intellect, which explains why men are so good at it. on the other hand, if someone was going to pay me $10,000 to fall, i wouldn't do it. im smarter than that. just wondering which kind of pain is worse. or if it is all relative

physical torture.
I'll take that one.
cuz the way i see it, they can break my bones etc... but those mend back, but breaking a "mind" is such a terrible thing.
I dont think that can be mended.
hmmmmmmm i'll take physical torture only if you promise to make it hurt...oh with a side of large fries please.
thankyou for your comments on my blog. you're not half bad with your prose yourself. hope to read more from you.
i'd pick physical.
i agrees with monologist on the broken mind thing.
toota howa magaz very hard to fix. u know crack always remain!
mono: hmm... i didnt think you could break teh mind, i mean literally... i know of the spirit being broken... and then the body / soul being as good as dead... this is so morbid... why am i even having this conversation?
raza: i thought the word "torture" implied hurt... :)
being not half bad would mean the other half being bad... well, as long as it all remains ambiguous :)
and thanx for the reply! i had quite forgotten about my comment! but yea, your poetry rox.
soumyn: you and the rest of the world... all the ppl ive asked uptill now have gone for physical torture... but u know somat? the average joe gets equally affected by both mental and physical pain... only the effects of the mental kind are hard to quantify, hence cure...
i think the ultimate in torture would be making someone watch re-runs of the Jerry Springer show. :/
u know what u should do right now? u should go out and get yourself some ice-cream. 2 extra large scoopies with everything but the kitchen sink on em.
yeah, u should go do that i think.
and i will go and get some sleep. :\
and then i will wake up. :|
