    In general.... I know it varies by topic, but in general would you rather have a lot of something that is fair quality or a few that are high quality?

    Edit: And why?

    Well I'd love to have the most equal stuff.

    Not the best but not the worst.

    And not too little but not too much.

    I would rather have a lot of fair quality meals at fair quality restaurants as opposed to a few high quality meals at high quality restaurants. I would also like to have a lot of fair quality sex rather than a bit of high quality sex. When traveling I like to pinch my pennies and draw out the experience as long as I can, even if it means foregoing high quality things.

    I guess my answer would be quantity.

    Fair enough, but usually both is unnecessary...

    Take cars for isntance... if your car is shitty, you probably need more than one(aka a back up). If your car is high quality, you generally don't have to worry such about a safety net...

    I see where you're going with this, but I think it's a dodgy answer. ;)

    Why? No matter what the answer... Why do you think(or know) that your preference is what it is?

    Well, you put the why? in after



    Chocolate - The good stuff tastes so much awesomer,quantity - I suppose to much I'd get sick of it

    Pot - The good stuff gets you more stoned without getting woken up 3am with a coughing fit. Actually with pot it would sort of work out the same cost/weight the good stuff would last around the same as the crap stuff.

    So yeah, you're right your whole purpose of this thread has come to fruitition, I dont really know what I'm talking about, cant really work out whether I would pick quality over quantity

    i really can't answer this. like you said in the OP, there is too much variation between topics. i have no idea which one edges out the other overall.

    if were talking about some tangible thing then definitely quantity. that way i could sell the junk to some unsuspecting fool and purchase the quality item with the profit

    Quality.

    I'd rather have a great, mind-blowing fucking once than an alright pounding over and over. :)

    Quality on things that "you can't buy". For example, friends, family, boyfriends, life experiences...

    For other things it can differ. For example, food. I would rather have sufficient amounts of 'fair' food, than little amounts of delicious food.

    Quality is always better than quantity. Why? Well, just because it is! :D
