I'd panic because I don't have enough money to send both of us to college.... so we'd probably go on the news and stuff trying to raise money for it, or at least to get the government to agree to give the other one a social security number and separate identity so she, too, can get financial aid.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

Surely you could overcome this issue with a laptop; a web cam; a microphone; and an earwig.

One of you sits in the lecture the other sits at home and watches and listens. They can ask questions from home for the attending clone to voice.

If you are truly identical and each take half of the exams then the qualification would be valid for both of you with little extra cost.

I would work with my clone to make our lives better. two people working together, get good grades, a house, babes, play Warhammer and other games regularly. like a super cool brother that I'd always be able to get along with. I'd explain to him early on that while he was the clone (and prove it so using some kind of DNA wazz), we would both be equal.

Many and varied forces in progress according to waxing & waning whims.

I may never finish an army in my life.

It was also a spectacular way to add tension to the show, as it removed the "Main character armor" that usually prevents any lasting damage to a show's main protagonist.

Does my clone get a clone? And there clone, get a clone and so on and so forth....
They might feel a little left out if they don't, then we might just end up with something like Rimmerworld, and that was terrible....

The world could not handle two Frazzleds. The wieners would be happy though, they would get constant walks and double the food, until the Wife runs one of us over.

Which would be about two minutes.

-"Wait a minute.....who is that Frazz is talking to in the gallery? Hmmm something is going on here.....Oh.... it seems there is some dispute over video taping of some sort......Frazz is really upset now..........wait a minute......whats he go there.......is it? Can it be?....Frazz has just unleashed his hidden weiner dog from his mini bag, while quoting shakespeares "Let slip the dogs the war!!" GG

You know how bad it would be to have two Asherian Commands? I mean some people could hardly handle one of me? But two?
You know that the world most likely explode? As governments fought over possession of the mighty asherians as they both gained world power but then nukes fell from the sky. Wait sorry that would be if there were two Frazzleds nevermind.

Two Asherian Commands, two times the greatness, and two times the annoyance.

Why would you both have to pay to go to college?

I mean if you were identical you could just take turns going to class while the other studied.

You could take twice as many classes as normal, double major if you will (any amount of credits above 12 still costs the same as 12), one of you could major in one thing, while the other majors in another.

You could even tag out on exams, the first you finishes the exam and then goes to the bathroom. You tag in the other you who comes in to check your work.

When it comes time to get a job one of you could work nights at one job while the other works days at another. Or if you each got a double major you could live in different parts of the country and collect twice as many wages.


When I'm bored I think of these things...
