    I have recently heard of a growing trend in people making important decisions by simply rollin die,at first i didnt quite get the concept and thought it was madness to leave important decisions purely to chance.However when faced with a tricky 50:50 decision im now flipping a coin and its working!obviously im not recommending these methods in life or death situations but if your trying to decide wether to buy that item you dont really need or trying to decide if your really in the mood to go out tonight,why not?

    Not for me it isn't. I said Heads - Reply to thread, Tails - Continue, in search of better threads. Thanks for ruining my afternoon.

    For important 50:50 decisions I usually windmill the ol' penis and decide on which side it settles on (left or right)

    clockwise or anticlockwise?

    i tried it just there going anticlockwise but it always ends up going left.

    That's the Coriolis Effect. In the Southern Hemisphere it would settle on the other side.

    "What would Jesus do?" works for me.

    I don't let objects choose for me. I have good instinct.

    I wonder if this isn't how government ministers have been making important decisions in this country in the last twenty years...would go a long way to explaining some things...

    I've got a bit of a dilemma. I decided I might try and follow this way of life, let the coin decide for me. So I figured what better way to start then let the coin decide if I should follow this way of life or not. Heads I'll follow the way of the coin, tails I won't. It landed on tails. What the hell do I do???? As you can see I'm in urgent need of some insight.

    It's pretty clear. The coin has spoken. You follow the coin and ..um...don't follow the coin....ok, i see your problem.

    Coin flipping doesnt work.

    Yesterday I had to make the decision of either: go to the shops and buy my dinner or eat what was left in the fridge or order a take out.

    I flipped a coin to decide, the results of which caused my head to explode.
