You've been cloned!

Imagine that one day, you hear a knock on your door and when you open it, an exact duplicate of you is standing there. He explains to you that he is a clone created from your DNA and he has escaped from the lab where he was created and has tracked you down. What do you do?

I'd fuck him. Not really, a clone would be years younger than me, probably a lot of years younger. So I wouldn't have sex with him, until he was legal. Then I'd bone his ass off.

Have a long, drawn-out fight scene in which we each duplicate each other's moves. After several minutes, we find ourselves evenly matched, we roll around on the ground a lot until everyone loses track of who's who. We both stand up and wipe ourselves off, only to see my girlfriend pointing a gun at us!
She's moving the gun back and forth, pointing first at the clone, then at me, her hands shaky. "WHICH ONE OF YOU IS THE REAL BB?" she demands.
"I am!" we say simultaneously.
"WHICH ONE OF YOU IS THE CLONE?"
"He is!" we both reply.
There's a long pause. Then she begins to say: "In the towwwwwn where I was born, there lived a maaaaaaan, who sailed to seeeeeea..."
"...and he toooooold us of his life, in the laaaaaaand of submariiiiiines!" I answer readily, while my clone stands there looking confused and not speaking.
She shoots the non-Beatle-loving impostor dead, and then she and I walk away in the sunset.

Me: 1
Clone: 0

I knew the answers would be fun and interesting and none of you disappoint.

As for me, I would automatically assume he was up to something. I know he'd be; he's me. If he's carrying tacos, a bucket of mud and/or the blueprints to the White House, I'll know we're on the same page. If he's carrying a sawed-off shotgun, a straitjacket or is wearing steel-toed boots, I will assume the worst and release the scrotum-seeking attack weasels. *nod*

I would invite him in for a few games of Ghost Recon. While we were both up in my room, we both simultanously plot how to kill each other, glancing back and forth while playing to make sure he didn't try anything. Since guests always sit on the right side of the TV, I reach for my aluminum baseball bat, and he grabs my pocket knife. Jumping over the railing, I rush downstairs while my dog attacks him. I bash his brains out. The police come and send me to an insane asylum. I win.:wink:

I'd run away in terror.

When I recovered, I'd come back and interrogate them about every detail of their personality because I'm too much of a scientist not to take such an easy opportunity to investigate how much of me came from "nature" and how much from "nurture." :tongue:

I'll agree to provide said clone with a way to stay hidden, yet to remain functional in society, by cooperating and working with me. Likely, I'd give him a crash-course training in my job, so that he ever should need to, he could fill in for me with some degree of competence. I would demand, though, that he pick up the slack and get some sort of menial job of his own to pay for his upkeep, perhaps at a FedEx warehouse or something.

I'd work out functional schedules with him, for when he could and should attend social events, what chores and responsibilities he might have, given that he is infringing upon my identity and personhood.

What else...hmmm...kill him if he violates the rules, of course. We can't have a version of me running amok, spoiling my name, can we now?

Hmmm....simple.

I would have him go somewhere open where he can be loud, obnoxious, and noticable. While he is ingraining himself into the memories of everybody around him, I would go around commiting a string of murders. When the police asked me where I was at the time of the crime, I could reply with the location of my clone, and there would be dozens of witnesses saying I wasn't at the crime scene.

well, it depends. after all, do the cloners want the clone back?

if not, I'd get to know him... me... better. after all, it's not just genetics that make us who we are, but our life experiences. he might be a better looking me, or a worse looking me.

after that... we'll see... but oh... the possibilities.

if the cloners want him back... I'll give him a couple thousand bucks and wish him luck. after all, if the cloners got my genetic sample, they know where to find me, thus sending him away would be the best thing for him.

Get it to do some science A-levels and then a degree in Biochemistry, so I (I think 'I' is more appropriate than 'we' in this context) can use my incredible knowledge and wisdom in both the sciences and humanities to rule the world.

Then I can go and fight the Polish President and his brother who used to be PM, because fights between two identical looking people would make awesome TV, and hence excellent money. Both of our evil brotherhoods would then become super wealthy, which would be to our collective benefits. I don't actually like them much, but money is money.
