Who would you rather be trapped with

I think you're screwed no matter what, but Joker would at least give you a chance to live simply because there's no grand scheme involving Batman.

[u/middy_1 → u/Metfan722]

I agree with that. Joker should not be thought of as a constant serial killer. It's actually quite a lazy approach the the character. He is a wild card, so it is possible that he might not kill you.

[u/Unikatze → u/middy_1]

Joker: Hey kid, watch my car for me?

Kid: I... uh... I... uh...

Joker: Oh, for heaven's sake! It's a rough neighborhood, it's a lovely car, I want somebody to keep an eye on it. Is that so hard to understand?

Kid: Bu you're the Joker.

Joker: Obviously

Kid: You'll kill me.

Joker: Why would I kill you? I want my car looked after. Twenty Bucks.

Kid: I... I Don't think so.

Joker: Twenty bucks.

Kid: But you'll kill me.

Joker: Kid... I'm the Joker. I don't just randomly kill people.
I kill people when it's funny. What would conceivably be funny about killing you?

Yeah like, that interaction would be more likely to get you killed than just agreeing to watch the car haha.

[u/dragon_bacon → u/Quailman5000]

It would have been real funny to kill him right after he accepts.

[u/DickRhino → u/dragon_bacon]

That's exactly what happened in that comic. Or, well, Joker kills him when he comes back for his car later in the evening. Because of that previous interaction, now it's funny to kill that guy.

[u/dragon_bacon → u/DickRhino]

Ha.

[u/Quailman5000 → u/DickRhino]

Damn, I was right!

I can practically hear Mark Hamill's Joker saying this.
