Grab the “2 random pills” and the “duplicate anything you own once” pill. Duplicate the “2 random pills” pill with the duplicate pill and eat both “2 random pills” pill and have 4 absolutely random abilities.
Hopefully it’s pure chaos
“2 random pills” and shoebox pill. Take the shoebox pill, get a shoebox filled with the 2 random pills (since you got one they became “real”). Grab a big handful of pills and swallow.
Others (in case you don’t want to collapse civilization or piss gasoline):
-
Shoebox + any question = practically unlimited questions. Plus the first one should be something like “how can I achieve maximum happiness (in an easy way where current me would be comfortable with the results)?” and you can ask variations to get a clearer answer since you have practically unlimited ones. Only drawback is if “single-use” really means the duplicates don’t do anything.
-
Shoebox + groundhog day = probably get to live >10000 years (unless “single-use” prevents that)
-
Shoebox + pi money = practically unlimited money, no “single use” issue
-
Shoebox + kill one person = Death Note
Shoebox glitch is way overpowered, nice one.
Shoebox is a nice idea, but now I’m wondering how big the pills would be…
You win this round! Although a shoebox of Groundhog Day pills is probably hell. At least you get to choose to each each subsequent pill.
Sell them. You’ll make more than $4M, if you don’t get killed for it
So what would shoebox + collapse civilization look like? Meteor storm of world ending asteroids? Collapse all civilizations for the next 10000 years? Start destroying alien civilizations?
I am assuming the shoebox can only contain one item,
you could get one duplication pill + shoebox with duplication pill = infinite duplication pills
Shoebox full of shoebox pills. Shoebox pill is overpowered.

I threw a dice and got:
- your left pocket is constantly full of coarse sand
- chocolate has all the vitamins and minerals you need to live
- grass points to you
- teleport to the closest beach at any time
I accept all these magical abilities. Time to be a beach bum that thrives on chocolate and chocolate alone!
Actually, could my pocket make a new beach!?!?

I think the 2 random pills is an auto-redeem so you’re rolling dice on collapsing civilization and strawberry flavor.
That sounds like a delicious risk to me! Strawberry flavored destruction. Actually, why don’t villains flavor their creations?
This is the way
Take showbox pill, order box full of all pill on picture. Take duplicate pill.
Duplicate shoebox. Take duplicate pill from shoebox. Repeat until satisfied.
Brilliant
I am gonna be real with you guys
- get 10% more sleep per sleep
And
- both nostrils always work
Is this what getting older does to me?
How do you cure aging would fix both I guess
I’ll take the shoebox(full of perfect diamonds, thanks xkcd!) and just for fun, the almost 10k calories of cheese for added wealth, opulence, and because I really love cheese. Some cheeses are worth hundreds of dollars a pound.
High-quality diamonds are expensive, but it’s hard to get a handle on their exact price because
the entire industry was built on a scamthe gemstone market is complicated.Nice one!
get π million dollars and get +3 on all charm. This would actually help me dramatically.
Maybe I’m misunderstanding the “groundhogs day” power, but couldn’t you spend a year tracking winning lottery numbers, bets, and/or stocks and then “loop” that year and act on that knowledge in the repeat year? Then you would also essentially get +1 year of life and way more than $π million. I would also use the first loop to take medical tests of my health as much as possible since it wouldn’t matter if I went into debt in the first loop.
I guess the downside would be that any progress you’ve made on personal goals would have to be redone. Or maybe you don’t get to decide the starting point of when you would loop back to. Or just my luck, there would be some butterfly-effect shit and I would end up worse off in the repeat loop because my investments would have failed.
way more than $π million.
I don’t need more than $π million. I just need enough to get some stuff started. I’m not interested in getting rich.
I would also use the first loop to take medical tests of my health as much as possible since it wouldn’t matter if I went into debt in the first loop.
Fair enough, but I really need the charm. I’m autistic and I’m not good at being social. I’d definitely be willing to give up a few years of life for more charm.
It would do both with just one “groundhog year” pill. Live a year with my current wealth and use the experience of that year to plan out how to earn money when it repeats. At the same time I would use that first year to measure my health so that I could take precautions or act on all that accumulated knowledge when the year repeats. There would still be a second pill to choose, and I think I’d choose the +3 charm because I could also really use it.
But I don’t think this would work how I envisioned because I misunderstood the “groundhog” pill. I think it’s supposed to mean that you repeat the same day 365 times, which wouldn’t work for lottery/investing. So then I agree, taking the $π million and +3 charm is probably the best.
I would take the +3 charm and groundhog Day for a year. It would be really awesome to have 3 charm instead of 0, and if I could repeat Tuesday for an entire year then I could learn skills and practice things and read a bunch of books and memorize and establish a plan to purchase a winning lottery ticket, not excessive but maybe like the mega millions I don’t know, and come out of the year into Wednesday with nine figures in my bank account and a clear plan of action.
Oh wait does “groundhogs day for a full year” mean that you complete a year then at the end you start that year over? Or is it that you repeat the same single day 365 times? Because repeating the same single day wouldn’t give someone enough info to invest or win a lottery (they close sales more than a day before drawing winners). I’m not sure I could out-earn $π million in a single day even with 365 attempts and +3 charisma… unless it was some kind of criminal heist, but then it couldn’t be known if I would be caught on a later date.
I don’t know if you’re from the states but if you are purchasing mega millions or Powerball tickets, they stop sales at about 6:45 p.m. Pacific time and then do the drawing sometime after 7:00 of the same day.
I interpreted it as you would repeat the exact same day 365 times, not that you would repeat the exact same year over and over again.
Your average shoebox is 35X23.5X13.5 cm, or 11103.75 cubic centimeters. The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm^3. You can fit 11103.75X19.3 = 214302 grams of gold in a shoebox. One gram of gold right now is $77.78 US. That’s 214302X77.78 = over 16.5 million US. There are things significantly more valuable (but not more fungible) than gold, too. The Pi million pill is completely moot. Or just take both, I guess.
No, get the gold and the pill that doubles something you own. The pi million is completely moot.
Or just ask what stock is going to raise the hardest and ask when is the best moment to sell if you have 2 questions

Teleporting Dr. Pepper can, so I can off tyrants, right wing nuts and dictators every 14.5h by summoning them inside their heads.
-
Not getting cancer sounds cool too
If you can control any Milliliter of water, you can easily shred up people’s brains.
That’s close quarters. I can do more damage from far away with Dr. Peppers.
Why close quarters? It gives no range, you could be watching live TV while assassinating people accross the world sitting on your couch drinking a dr pepper.
I guess my point is I can think of other useful things to do by controlling a milliliter of water than dr. Pepper teleportation. Plus you have to wait a half day to kill again, I can theoretically kill one after another.
-
Control a single milliliter of water. That one effectively gives me like 85% of the others… water molecule nanobots.
Then I guess the money one so I’m not rushed.
I’ll take the money and kill a person
Boeing got a job offer ready for you
I do aswell. But only if the kill pill works on “any” person
Immune to Cancer and Grapes.
The grapes are basically free income if I can just plant them half-assed and they always turn out. There is even the implication that they don’t need fertilizer or other associated costs.
The shoebox full of gold would be worth around $12M at current prices.
(First Google result for size of a shoebox: https://store.usps.com/store/product/shipping-supplies/priority-mail-shoe-box-P_0_SHOEBOX
I just rounded down the measurements for a quick and dirty estimate of the internal volume.)
The downside is that would be 341 pounds of gold so maybe specify for it to be in bars instead of a solid block.
From a quick Google search, I saw a guy managed to fit 7,400 dollar bills into a shoebox. $10,000 bills are no longer printed but still valid, legal currency. Assuming that’s the max. That’s $74,000,000. You could dupe the box and net $148 mil.
However, thinking bigger. Go with a shoebox full of perfect diamonds. The value could conceivably be in the billions.
Just get a shoebox of shoebox pills and you can just get a box of 10’s and 20’s whenever you need.
I think you’d have an even harder time offloading the diamonds than gold. They might retail for that much, but wholesaling is another issue entirely.
The course sand pocket would be pretty great. Unlimited free sand. I could run an empire.
Immune to venom and urinate gasoline. When I tell my doctor it burns when I pee, I want to mean it. Also, I figure something like that would send spiderman after me.
More like Captain Planet

“strawberry flavor” and “tastes good”
It’s obviously a BAD Strawberry flavor, though… Are you sure you wouldn’t prefer controlling a miniscule amount of water?
