When thinking of each, if it was in a world where life is good and I'm living in the picturesque lifestyle that comes to mind for each one, then probably a Pirate.

Sailing the open seas is the picture that comes to mind and it's the most "romantic" to me.

No thanks. I'm a coward. I just want to sit on my ass all day and browse lemmy

¿Porque no los tres?

pirates supported same-sex marriage, so I’ll go with that 🏳️‍🌈

All would actually suck if these are the realistic versions, but Cowboy would suck the least, at least as a violence-averse person (if you're not violence-averse I understand why you'd pick Samurai.)

Movie versions, I'd still go Cowboy. I'd get stir crazy on a boat and I don't like answering to people like Samurai need to.

Samurai, during the heydays of the shogunate.

I enjoy camping and am a decent shot, so I guess I'd go with cowboy. Plus, lassos look fun!

From what I like the most? Defebatly pirate, cause I could be another pirate Queen and that sounds dope

From whats the least icky one? Samurai after it became a social status and a symbol of nobility with the occasional murdering

Samurai gets paid by the fedual lord. Easy choice.

I want to be a samurai. I wanted to be one since I was a kid, and I want to be one even more after having read Hagakure. I even try to live up to a lot of the same ideals Yamamoto Tsunetomo laid out in the book about what it meant to be samurai. It's almost the same idea as medieval chivalry; but more intense and without the religious overtones.

Fictionally, a samurai. But for real, I guess cowboy is the most sane option...

A cowboy. I was born in the western US and spent some of my young life on a cattle ranch. It's hard work and at the end of the day, there's a sense of accomplishment.

Not interested in being a pirate, stealing isn't my thing. I don't like the idea of slicing and dicing people, so samurai wouldn't work for me either.

Be would mean now and here? Or the and there (where they existed)?

Pirate is definitely out - I don't really care to be surrounded by guys 24/7 on a crowded and dirty ship. Samurai maybe but I'd go with "Cowboy". Has the best chance for a somewhat modern life and many chances to meet women...

Samurai. Not quite upper-class but a lot better social standing and conditions than the other two.

All three - pirate against capitalism, cowboy against society, and samurai because their swords are awesome and they bathe.

Yarr!
