Ok here it is
"You are walking down a street when a stranger walks up to you. You can't recognise the stranger beacause he or she is wearing a long dark jacket, hat and dark sunglasses. The stranger stops you and presents you with a box, just an ordinary looking box. He claims that it hold with in the answer to all your problems, and wants you to have it."
"DO YOU TAKE IT?"
"YES OR NO?"
"WHY"

i take it and look, because even tho i know i probably dont want it, the curiosity of not knowing what it was inside would be worse than the risk that looking inside brings.

"the box is the size of a match box"......"so you decide to take it"....."cause if the stranger opened it, it would solve his problems", "he has offered it to you to solve your problems"....."does your curiosity get the better of you and you open it straight away? or do you wait a while and ponder the thought "IS THE STRANGER FOR REAL, COULD THIS BE THE ANSWER?"

Well since its the size of a match box i suppose i'll take it. The box might hold a few nuts that i need on me car. But then again it have a black hole in it which means that i could shove my biggest problem into it.
Me boss

Will you take the red pill? Or will you take the blue pill?
I'd open the box, what could possibly go wrong. You open it and all your problems are solved or nothing happens at all. I'd expect it to be nothing but there is still a shit load of stuff that is completely unknown to humans.
But those martians they know everything, DON'T THEY...

the journey to the answer is just as, if not more important as the answer itself.

In todays society we have grown up to be very sinic and untrusting of a persons good will. This little exercise proves this. We all show an interest but very rarely get excited.
Life is wot you make it of course no-one is going to had you your life on a silver plater....we all have to work for wot we want
Peace be with you

This is good will from a person who is dressed up like he/she is ready to kill someone...
Offering the answer to all your problems in the size of a matchbox. This can mean only one of three things:
1. This person has a knife behind there back and wants to introduce you to it.
2. The person is a drug dealer, the box is filled with LSD, or some other narcotic.
3. The person is darth vader and inside the matchbox is a tiny red lightsabre.

Well if it isn't your sister's box then I don't want it. Although I'd probably still do your mum's box but that would be wider than a matchbox.
