Talk to house plants just so I know how smart they are. I mean they could help make upkeep easy obviously, more water, not on the leaves etc. But what else. Philosopher houseplants! That would be so cool

Welcome to c/WouldYouRather, where we present you with the toughest, most ridiculous choices you never knew you had to make! Would you rather have a third arm that's only useful for picking your nose, or be able to talk to animals but only if they're wearing hats? Yeah, it's that kind of vibe. Come for the absurdity, stay because you've clearly got nothing better to do with your life.

That and, holy fuck what a curse the glitter would be.
Yeah, who would want to bring more glitter into the world? Especially when compared to the superpower of talking to plants.
I would like to go and make a mess at the houses of people I'm mildly annoyed at. That could be useful. Or a party trick
I’ll take the glitter because my houseplants are going to have harsh words for me.
He, not mine! Dead plants tell no tales.
Your time keeping is sub par!
Lots of people in here think that house plants are going to be great conversationalists and not just talk about dirt and sunlight non stop.
Finger glitter guns please.
Thats the average conversation with a slrpnk user
I already can talk to house plants. They never say anything back though. I would still choose it as my super power though because of be afraid of accidental emissions.
Premature glittering
Assuming that harmless means the glitter is biodegradable and actually causes no harm, I'd take the glitter.
I've got a young kid and several young nieces and nephews. Most of them are either going through the sparkly princess stage, or their superhero phase. Being able to puff out glitter on demand would make their days :)
Oh yeah thats the kinda story I like
A shitty party cracker out of a finger on command? Hell yeah I'm in.
Houseplants, easy. They're my favorite interior decoration anyway, now they're upgraded to little buddies I can chat up and bounce ideas off of? Yes please.
Talking to house plants could be turned into a new life as a spy or PI (albeit a very niche one). I don't imagine plants would be super talkative so it probably wouldn't get too annoying. Glitter finger farting doesn't have any uses I can think of besides pranks and crafts. So I'll go plants.
Lots of folks here don't seem to realize that having the ability to talk to houseplants doesn't necessarily mean they have the ability to talk to you. I can talk at a plant all I want, it doesn't mean it's going to say anything back
I'll take the glitter please. Although one dose of glitter is harmless, the glitter can be collected into a dose large enough to be dangerous.
If it wasn't only house plants, that could be fun.
But I'll take gliitter
Talk to houseplants. That would be a fascinating conversation, even if they don't care about the same things as us. Does it work on non-house plants, too? Imagine the hot goss old trees would have...

Talk to houseplants. I just hope it wouldn't be a Dr. Dolittle situation where I hear ALL the plants ALL the time.
Just houseplants whenever they speak. If that bothers you, you can torture them until they obey all you say
😂 😂 Laughed WAY too hard at this. Like "SHUT UP OR THIS LEAF GETS IT!!"
I'd rather shoot glitter for the most awkward moments
I'll take talking to house plants (it doesn't specify that they have to be my plants). Keep the craft herpes away from me.
I can already talk to houseplants, but I'd take the glitterfingers even if I couldn't.
Define "harmless." Regardless I've met people who could stand to suffer more glitter in their everything. That shit never goes away.
Hmm i would say house plants because i could maximize the output by providing better lighting, the right amount of water, perfect temperature and nutrition without fancy equipment. Yes i grow weed. However i would need someone else to do the harvesting as it would be rather horrifying to do so myself.
