The topics that come up in the Weekend Engagement posts now are becoming so weird...
If your head fell off and rolled away, would you miss it or do you think you'd be able to live your life without it?
My first reaction is that my neck and back would be cold all the time without my hair stopping the draught. It would be awful in the winter. That said, if one's head fell off and rolled away, it would still be possible to live life without it, though of course, you'd be dead, not alive. You'd be a ghost, like Sir Humphrey Bone below.
He's one of the characters in Ghosts, a BBC TV series. If you haven't seen it before, I highly recommend it. It's about a couple who inherited a big house that is haunted by many ghosts who all died in the house at different periods. The couple can't afford to move out or sell up, and the ghosts are stuck there until they move to their afterlife. To make things funnier, the wife can see and interact with the ghosts but the husband can't, so they all have to learn to live together. America has produced an adaptation, it's currently in season 4. Germany, France, Australia and Greece are all producing their own adaptation.
Sorry, I digress. See the problem with having a head attached to the body? They work together, one thinks the other types and before you know it they've wandered off to Timbuktu.
I wanted to see how I would look if my head fell off, that might help me decide if I wanted to live headless or not. Sadly my phone editor wouldn't let me do it. Make sense, otherwise we'd have a bunch of sickoes creating all these fake sick images all the time.
Then I thought about the pros and cons to live headless or not
Pros
- I would never have a headache or toothache again
- I'd immediately lose a bit of weight without doing any exercise
- Not seeing or hearing anything means I can live in hermit, not bad when I want to get away from people
- The biggest upside is that I could become an influencer. I've even thought of the name @LivingHeadlessLife. I could do videos of me living my headless life and how I overcome the difficulties. I can already see my socials trending
Cons
- If I can't read or talk, how can I engage with my followers on my socials? That could be a problem
- I would have no social life, it would be very lonely coz I can't talk to anyone, watch TV or listen to music
- I like my food, not having a head means I can't eat anymore. Actually, I wonder if I would get hungry 馃
Balancing everything, I think if my head fell off, I'd definitely pick it back up first. I'd like to be complete even if I couldn't stick it back onto my neck. But I have a solution to that. I got an ultra-cool @worldmappin hoodie that I can use hold my head in place to make sure it doesn't roll off. No one would know I'm headless so I can be normal like everyone else.
And when I do my videos on my new @LivingHeadlessLife channel, I can take my head off, put it in the hoodie so I don't lose it. When I'm done, I'll just put my head back on again. You never know, I might even onboard loads of people to Hive. Everyone would be thanking me. You didn't even need to fund a proposal for that.
Hold on!!! There's a thought....
