The Hyperthetical Lounge

What's with Hypertheticals? Also, a List of Hypertheticals

Everyone loves a good hyperthetical. Over the years, hypertheticals have amused many a situation which had me and someone else bored. Humans love hypertheticals, but why exactly? When you get down to it, hypertheticals are just some random question which requires an answer. It doesn't serve any purpose except for an obscure view of someone's opinions. If you're seeking to find out more about someone, a perfect hyperthetical can steal the deal! 'Would you rather spend time with me or your ex-partner?' For example.

The appeal of hyperthetical is quite simple. People like to create scenarios from their imagination. Because, in the imagination, one can totally make love to celebrities that would, in reality, punch them in the face if they made a move.
