Which pill would you choose?

I picked red, and I am glad I didn't pick yellow .. it's hard enough to live with what I think about myself, never mind all those creeps within 100 meters. 

Surely interesting if I should walk around Princeton's Theoretical Physics department, MIT, NASA and things like that. Right now however, I really doubt that the thoughts of any person within 100 mts from me are of any interest to me (with all my respect for those people). Unless of course, some pretty neighbour woman is thinking that she would like to have me in her bed, which I seriously doubt is the case.

Green - gives you the ability of flying (100 km/h). You can use it 3 times a day, it works for an hour.

Useful in traffic jams and I love to see things from above, but too limited usefulness.

Blue - you immediately become the best in the world in any sport competition. You can use it only once. After the consumption you will live for 10 years at most.

Not bad, I might choose being the best driver at Formula One or the best rider at MotoGP bike racing. Exciting and profitable enough, and 10 years of the enjoyment and wealth seems enough, I could be ready to die after that.

Orange - gives you the ability to evoke the effect of any drug (narcotic) on yourself. Does not make you addicted and does not harm your health. Usage: 4 pills a day, each one works for 45 minutes.

All the drugs I tried are affordable enough that I can afford them in the doses I consider sustainable, so not really a very attractive offer. I don't think I want to try harder and more expensive drugs, even if they would not harm my health, so no thanks.

Red - gives you the ability to connect to the internet with your brain. You can use it 6 times a day. It works for 1 hour.

No thanks, I have more than enough. Having to type is not that terrible.

Pink - gives you the ability to take shape of any animal or human. You can use it twice a day for a 2 hours long effect.

I'm rather ugly but I don't know why would I want to look like some animal or other human (although sometimes I would like to be a dog owned by a caring owner, what a life!!!) .

Grey - gives you the ability to make somebody love you with a simple touch. You can use it 10 times in your life. You can remove the effect.

Can't complain, enough people love me and care for me, more than I deserve and frequently I already think that I have trouble returning their love back as they should deserve. Nah.

Black - lets you foresee the future 5 years ahead. You may use it only once.

The worst of all, no way.


So, perhaps reading other people's mind is not really the same as learning what they know, but it is the closest among the choices given to something which can increase my knowledge. So it would be either this (yellow) or being the best driver / rider for ten years (blue), enjoy life during that period and die afterwards (preferably in a quick and painless way).
