Would you want to live in a Sugar Bowl / Tastes Like Diabetes world?

Sugar Bowl / Tastes Like Diabetes usually are the things aimed at girls and Real Men Who Wear Pink so if you happened to land in a place like that would you try to escape or enjoy it for all its glory.

It would be boring. Very, very boring.

What is it that they say... something to the effect of "utopia is lounging—too little interesting conflict—and dystopia is a mad dash for survival—too much interesting conflict." Either extreme is going to be a bad experience...

Ugh. Gods no. Salt is a wonderful taste, too.

You really seem to like making these threads.

Considering that it would be far safer than a crapsack world... yes. I would assume this wouldn't prevent teenage boys from doing stupid teenage stuff, so i could still laugh at their antics when they got hurt. The advantage of such a world being they couldn't actually die from some of their foolishness, so none of them would be terribly guilty laughs I'd have.

YES!

Ew, no. That would be boring. I'd take it over a Crapsack World, but I still wouldn't choose to live there. What about all the sex, booze and politics that we've all come to know and love?

Hell no. Unless there was an unlimited supply of liquor for me to indulge in.

I was just shown Happy Tree Friends on Friday by my friend and this thread is suddenly incredibly disturbing.

If it was a Sugar Bowl world, there would be an unlimited supply of sugarcane and hence INFINITE RUM!

Sure. I don't know why humans need suffering or life becomes "Boring"

Sure. I'll take "boredom" over starvation, poverty and war any day of the week, plain and simple.

All that being said I don't even think it would necessarily be boring at all, so long as there is a natural world to explore, people to meet, stories to tell and food to eat.

Edit: ya what s/he said.

I consider Gensokyo to be a Sugar Bowl, and I think that would be a pretty cool place to live (Assuming its the Canon gensokyo and not Fan Fic Grimdark Gensokyo)

I sure, I would like to live in them!

More pure something is, more beatifull is to corrupt it...

Of course!

Just like a dangerous world isn't necessarily a hellhole, a nice one isn't necessarily a boring monotone. So depending on the world picked, I might be quite willing.

If I could make the world interesting, I might give it a shot.

trope@The Corrupter would have one enemy and that is me the Sassy Black Woman Moral Guardian that is going to use my Magical Girl Warrior powers to stop you and since it is a Sugar Bowl I will expect myself to win because I am the defender of the world and the heroes always win in sugar bowls.

Oh well, I tried; time to go to Sin City, instead...

It would just be Darkness-Induced Audience Apathy in reverse. Meaningful conflict is necessary for an interesting world.

These settings aren't always devoid of meaningful conflict. It just means you're not as likely to run into a sociopathic jackass along the way. And the bystanders will probably help. In droves.

Like I said, if I were in a Sugar Bowl, I'd turn it into something much more fun. Or, you know, I'd die of a diabetic coma.

I am with you on that because Sugar Bowls tend to attract some pretty nasty villians that even can be straight up complete monsters.

I would still be around to make sure you aren't in it and taste the blast of my hammer of truth.

Or you could partake. Come on, it'll be fun...

tropetown could expect my support during the Sugar Bowl revolution. Enough of this irrational repression of negative thoughts. FREEDOM!!!
