Been a while since our last good discussion here so I think I'll get the ball rolling with this one.

After watching this interview with Dr Philip Zimbardo I had to read up on the Stanford Prison Experiment. It is one scary story that has me thinking about a few discussions we had with John about good and evil, being in a trench with somebody and who to trust.

I am still adamant that I would not turn into an psycotic guard in no time, but I guess it's just human nature.

I'd say it would take far less for you to go psychotic, but.. um... maybe discussing you wasn't what you had in mind? smiley

There's an idea for summer house vacation 2008. We'll rent a house and turn it into a makeshift prison.

I want to be a guard so I can roleplay some of my sadistic tendencies for scientific purposes. Nothing personal.


You want to tempt the wrath of the whatever from high atop the thing?

And who among us shall take the role of the "against all authorities" rebel? coughBoddincough...


I'll take the role of the scientific observer (and bookie laying odds on wheter you'll get a bayonet - or mayhaps a nigger knife - in the back before you succeed in your job:p)

I think that I would be good at torturing people, and get them to say exactually what I want... smiley

So I will be the stoneface Interrogator
