General Discussion Thread 23.09.2025​

Good morning, sunshine! We’ve made it past Monday’s chaos and now we’re cruising into the smoother part of the week (well… hopefully ). I don’t know about you, but Tuesdays always feel like the perfect day for a little conversation to brighten things up.


So here’s today’s question: If you could trade places with anyone for a single day—real, fictional, past, or present—who would it be and why?

Would you step into the shoes of a movie star, a grandchild, a famous historical figure, or maybe even your cheeky pet just to see what they get up to all day?

As for me, I think I’d trade places with a dog. Imagine a whole day of walks, belly rubs, naps, and endless treats—with everyone telling you how cute you are. Honestly, sounds like the dream life!

Now it’s your turn—share your answer below! I can’t wait to see the fun and creative picks you come up with.

I wouldn't want to trade places with anyone. I'm happy being me!

An athlete with perfect health and fitness.

That's a hard one to choose. Someone good, someone not so good or a devoted funny pet.
That said, and me not being a morning person , I conclude it would be Trump. Only to see (other than his huge ego) what makes him tick in that lame arse pathetic head of his. To learn how & why his brain is wired to be the most racist, unscrupulous, condescending, misogynistic, immoral specimen ever given life to. Could I last a day in his head....probably not.

Ha! And in a few days, we’ll say to ourselves, whatever happened to @RFG - he’s been quiet lately - only to discover Trump the autocrat had him tossed out of the SDC!

Robbie Williams wife - for obvious reasons lol

Well said re Trump.Have a good day

 

[PattiB]

I think I’d just like to be a fitter, thinner more energetic version of me. Like ricci, I’m quite content being me.

Could be worse. Could be Albo.

Easy - Donald Trump - so I could try to undo some of the damage he's done. If all else fails, insist I'm not Trump, I'm me - and (I hope) get him diagnosed as (at least) schizophrenic and (at best) incurably insane.

As far as I am concerned, he already is incurably insane. I just need to convince the world of it

Albo's only a cheap demagogue - reacting and making policies to whichever minority group is loudest at the time. Cheap, because he does it off his own bat, doesn't need to be bribed (although a financial incentive might help...) Trump is a megalomaniac and wannabe Dictator like his buddies - Putin, Kim Jong Un, Xi Jinping - and his idol - Adolf Hitler (possibly with a side of Stalin and Mussolini)

Nor me - he'd have to get out!

 

[PattiB]

On second thoughts, maybe Elon Musk, mainly so I could give his billions away to worthwhile causes, especially all of us at SDC. I wonder how he’d cope with only $50 in his bank accounts, but what fun I’d have.

 

[EllenM]

I would trade places with Abraham Lincoln for a day (14 April 1865) and I would not go to see a play at Ford’s Theatre in the evening. I would stay home.

You don’t need to convince me, he’s crazy lol

 

[Miss Chris]

Ha TRUMP and I’d set things right…..he wouldn’t recognise the world he’d wake up to and where no one would know his name, he‘d be a regular nobody just toughing it out like the rest of us, with dreams of being rich one day……he’d be Allowed to keep the orange face though….i won’t let him lose everything….

 

[Sherril54]

Seriously, I don`t want to trade places with anything or anyone its been too hard to get here!
