Red Pill or Blue Pill?

[WavMixer]

If you have ever seen the Matrix, you will know the meaning of this question.

...you're aware that there's a whole colour spectrum of 'pills', each with their own context and meaning now, right? Black pill, purple pill, etc. I lost track somewhere.

 

[WavMixer]

I'm sticking with the basic primary colors of blue or red.

Red pill, Blue pill. What's the difference? We all end up in the same place anyway.

It's not about the destination as much as the ride there.

Kinda like a Yugo and a Ferrari both get you to the grocery store. But which one is more fun to drive? And I choose the bright red Ferrari.

 

[PelliX]

I chose the red pill. I have some emails about the blue ones... not sure I need them.

 

[Seamus OReally]

At the age I am now? Blue. I just want a pleasant slide into death.

As a young man? Red. I would have had the energy to fight the power when it was revealed.

When I was a teenager, I knew everything. Now that I'm an old stinker, I realize what I thought I knew was actually nothing. Now I'm a truth seeker and I want to learn all I can about my existence on Earth. About history that I believe was held from us. Give me a double dose of red pills please

As the Oracle said, "Because you didn’t come here to make the choice. You’ve already made it. You’re here to try to understand why you made it."

There was no choice made by Neo, just the opportunity to take the red pill to get what he already wanted.
Metaphorically, I take the red pill every time I get the chance.

There's something to be said for the Blue pill, they say ignorance is bliss, but that's only until it isn't and by then it's too late and you're screwed.

Red pill all day any day. I'll have mine with shot of tequila and a beer....and a bite of whatever comes off Don's grill.

Didn’t you see what they had to eat and drink on board the Nebbuchanezer? (Wild guess at that spelling… I didn’t pay attention in Bible school, apparently.) Well, it looked pretty nasty to me. I’m with Joey Pants: I want the juicy steak, the old whiskey, the girl in the red dress.

With all due respect sir, many peoples "ride" consisted of broken homes, hunger, homelessness, crime, and injustices too many to list.

I'm with Cypher. Eating steak, living eternally in the late 90's blissfully unaware of the horrors of the real world? I'll eat two Blue pills just to make sure it kicks in quick.

I barely remember watching the Matrix so if I ever knew what they ate I certainly don't remember it. My response was based solely on the image in post #3.

Never got into the matrix movies, I liked The Thirteenth Floor though.

You don't watch the History Channel by chance...?
