Given the choice, would you prefer life to come pre-installed with…
…an “Undo” button that would allow you at any time to backtrack and choose different words said or choices made,
OR,
…an “Are You Sure?” warning that would give you those extra few seconds of pause before speaking or acting?
Enquiring minds want to know…
Please share!

I want an “Are you sure?” button…really bad. It would be a saving grace! Thank you for giving me a choice. 🙂

It would certainly be helpful, wouldn’t it?!

I want the undo, because then I could at least TRY all those things I stop myself from doing, knowing it was recoverable from.

Ooooh, I like your way of thinking! I do believe that’ll be my choice too!

I might rather have both, but if I can only choose one, I choose: Undo! Mostly I’m alright at asking the “are you sure?”-type questions, but sometimes it’s the Undo I’d prefer to have 🙂

Can I have both? Huh? Can I? Can I please? Do you have any other ones? How about “if only?”
Thanks for posting a great question and making us think about it.

I’d like an Undo button please. I already have and “are you sure button?” If I had an “undo” button I could be more spontaneous.

Good point!

“Are you sure” would keep the “undo” button unnecessary!

Both would be useful, but I’d choose “Undo.” Any mess ups that could have been avoided with the “Are You Sure” can be fixed with an “Undo.”
