What would you do? Kill, or ignore?

You discover that the Chinese have made a precise clone of you.

Your clone has all the memories you have. It speaks English, and it does not realise it is a clone. It believes itself to be the only one in existence.

Knowing what you know, what would you do next? Just go back to masturbating underground, or emerge and take action?

I'd be inclined to seek it out and kill it.

Find it befreind it .....hilarity will ensure especially during pints.

I couldn't possibly kill such a nice chap

Redneck Reject71

I'd retire and let him do all the work, while I funnel his earnings into an extravagate lifestyle for myself,heh.

Hande hoche!

Develop a habit of flipping a coin.

...but maybe your actually the clone and the Chinese version is out to get you...your now the hunted

Well that all sounds lovely

I imagine hanging out with myself would result in death.

Common observations of every day life would be the same, so instead of having something interesting to say, it would all boil down to "Yeah, I know", before anything is even said. But it would be said by both you and the clone at once at the exact same time.

Over time, "yeah, I know" would eventually turn into a more aggravated "Yeah, I fooking know, okay? !"

So people would see two identical people walking down the street, same walk too, both saying repeatedly, angrily, " Yeah, I fooking know, okay?!" in unison to each other, big red, scaldy faces on them.

So, I think death is inevitable for the clone.

But if I had the idea to kill the clone, then surely the clone would know immediately that my intent was murder the second he'd see me. And likewise he'd attempt to murder me. I suppose if it weren't for the gentlemanly formality of needing to introduce myself, I could kill him in his sleep, or from behind with a blow of a really large object.

But, if the clone ever did find out it was a clone, it would probably try to murder me anyway. So, it's better to be proactive and murder yourself before yourself murders yourself.

All depends. If he could make a decent spice bag I'd probably hang on to him.

I'd let him live as a source of donor organs. Answer may have been inspired by a movie.

Obviously most people would want to have sex with their clone. Weirdo Boardsies don't even think of that.

Well first we have to recognise the chinese and the likes encounter what could well be their doppelgänger everyday. They’re used to it, and thus operate as a unit. Are they clones?..if it’s our sense of individuality the’ve come to harvest it would not surprise me

I know it may be my own greatest weakness; to encounter something i never expected to be confronted with in myself. Would I say hello? One thing is for certain I don’t like my profile at 90 degrees so would be apprehensive about approaching from that angle. It’s a challenge....

Kill. Kill it with fire. The world does not need another me. It's below par already.

Sounds like the Simpsons when homer cloned his clones that cloned their clones...

Princess Consuela Bananahammock

Kill it.

If it's an exact copy, it'll think it's the original and kill me first.

WTF ..

What if you caught a sight of yourself checking out another you. In a watching ye, watching you type scenario. About to apply the half nelson and frogmarch yourself down to the local constabulary for impersonation would you accost this double or allow events to transpire? Bearing in mind you are now effectively the triple. Or the third party, observing all this

the purple tin

Go on a crime spree. Rob a load of banks etc, make sure there are plenty of witnesses. Tip the Guards off to your clones whereabouts. He goes to jail and you keep the loot.

Treat it as my fetch. It can carry out all my dirty work for me.

Theirs a great episode of black mirror where a woman does a procedure to copy her conscience and plans to use this "copy" to do all the organising for her. She then tells the man she remembers the procedure and the man explains to her that she is the copy and she is now the slave.. try to think of things from your clones point of view as they would deserve life just as much as you
