I sometimes do and I did just a few minutes ago as I’m typing this. I decided 5 out of 7, whether or not I was going to go to a chinese buffet today. The coin decided 5-3, that I will. Then I wanted the coin to decide if I’m going thrifting today and with a landslide of 0-5, it didn’t want me to.

And do you stick to those choices?

    I don’t think I’ve used a coin flip to decide anything in my life since my parents occasionally used one to decide something between my brother and I as kids (such as who would get first turn on something). Every time I thought to do a coin flip for decision making as a younger person, I’d find myself leaning toward and secretly hoping for one outcome and think to myself…this is dumb, let’s just do the one I’m already leaning toward. Now it’s not even something I consider doing when making decisions. I also go literally months, sometimes years, between touching coins now, so I’d have to ask Google to flip a coin for me or something.
