In media, there are sometimes stories where a person is cloned/duplicated (usually with identical memories) and the clone is murderous towards the original. Usually it’s something like “I knew there could be only one of us, and you would do the same”. Sometimes, they’re able to work things out and can share a single public identity, or duplication gives one copy a chance to do go off and live a new life that they always wanted.
How would you and your duplicate get along? Assume you are living like you do today, in a society where duplication is unheard of and has no legal precedent.
I’d give him the keys, the passwords, and wish him good luck with my life. BUH BEYE!
hell no, we’d start an onlyfans.
I’m one of the copies and I’m more charming than the original that I killed.
I wouldn’t feel compelled to kill my clone, so I don’t think my clone would feel compelled to kill me either.

Probably spend the first couple of days fucking and then figure out what happens next after that.
So far my identical twin has not killed me nor have I killed them, so I’d be safe probably.
I don’t think I’d kill me. I think it would be cool for one of us to commit a brazen crime in broad daylight whilst also having a rock-solid alibi. I couldn’t have killed that person; I was giving a speech to 100 people at the time who can all testify for me. Give detectives etc a real head-scratcher when all the evidence points towards me being the culprit but I was also undeniably somewhere else.
I’m picturing me and my duplicate having a fight that devolved into us actually trying to kill each other over this because honestly, I’d rather shoot a man…no scratch that, I’d rather BE shot than give a speech in front of a significant number of people.
Yes, cause I operate under Highlander Rules.
I’ve seen so many TV shows, movies, even commercials where a clone or future self doesn’t get along with his twin. I don’t understand this. I think I’d get along swimmingly with myself. I mean what’s better than spending time with someone who thinks like you do?
lmao no, I’m way too lazy to try it, and also don’t really have a reason to do something like that.
We’d probably just alternate going to work/uni. The extra free time sounds nice.
Anyone who has the thought: “yes i would kill clone me”, you better watch your back, your clone thinks the same way you do.
Hopefully my clone murders me so he’s the one that has to go to work
Nah, We would become buddies. We would pretend to be twins in public. We’d split the work, I’d go one week and he’d go the other. We’d play Soulcalibur and Tekken and since we’d both be equally bad it wouldn’t be frustrating.
It would be hard to alternate work if its a professional role. You would have to do like update sessions and it would make more work for both of you relative to pay.
Or work together and do the job in half the time and enjoy the rest
I was thinking that. If it was remote during meetings you could alternate being face or listening lying on a couch.
We’d get along fine, but feeding two people on one salary will definitely be annoying (my job has a non-competition clause where I can’t pick up a second job in the same field), and getting enough adhd meds for the both of us will be impossible due to strict regulations here.
One of us still could bring value to the household by being the designated bangmaid though
you job barely pays enough to feed you AND and you have a noncompete?
There is almost no way that’s enforceable.
Nono, it feeds me comfortably, I’m just really into saving up since I want to own an apartment one day and I’d definitely be annoyed at having to feed an extra person with no prior notice.
