We played ‘Would You Rather’ with people after lectures
Stockton or cut your arm off?
Everyone loves to play Would You Rather. But what about playing it with people after a lecture?
We wanted to know exactly what would be a no-go area for Durham students.
Francesca Battersby, 18, Fresher, Hatfield, NatSci
Would you rather cut off your arm, or get the bus to Stockton?
“Cut off my arm, I don’t want to go to Stockton.”

“Would you rather speak to the EY Promoters outside of the library or never leave your house again?”

Would you rather shag a local or never shag again?

Would you rather have a gin and tonic in the Fighting Cocks or spend a night in Klute toilets?
“I would rather have a gin and tonic in black tie to be honest.”
Sascha Marson, 21, Second, John’s, History
Would you rather watch your parents have sex, every time they had sex, or would you rather join in but only once?
“Ohhhhhhh. I’d rather eat toad shit. I’d rather watch because I just couldn’t partake in that. It’s unpartakeable.”
Grant Scott, 22, Fourth Year, Collingwood, French and Italian
Would you rather fuck a goat and no one knows, or would you like to not fuck a goat but everyone thinks you did?
“Umm well. I would fuck a goat. Oh wait, can I change that? I wouldn’t fuck a goat, and I think I could deal with the social shaming.”
Dee Rust, 23, Second Year, JoBo, IR
Would you rather give up oral sex or cheese for the rest of your life?
“I’d rather give up oral sex. I love cheese. Brie is my favourite because it tastes like butter and the feeling it gives me inside.”
Harry Roxburgh, 20, Second Year, Grey, Politics
Would you rather be in Trevs or Hatfield?
“Hatfield, because I’ve got friends in there. I hate being on the hill.”
Martha Bowler, 17, Fresher, Mary’s, BioMed
Would you rather take a 2:2 now, or stay on and work for a 2:1?

Lara Gibson, 19, Fresher, Collingwood, French, German and Arabic
Would you rather win fittest fresher or BNOC of the year?
“I’d rather win BNOC of the year because it shows you’ve got a good personality. You could win fittest fresher but be really boring and shallow.”
Pete MacCormack, 20, Third Year, Collingwood, History
Would you rather have dicks for fingers, or a finger for a dick?
“You’ve gotta go for finger dick because you’d still have your normal fingers so you could pick things up. It would be inconvenient to have dick fingers.”
Fionn Price, 20, Second Year, Grey, Spanish and Russian
Would you rather have sex in the Klute toilets for the rest of your life, or never have sex again?
“Klute toilet sex.”
