I doubt Bulma would know how to make a remote that would initiate the bomb inside her, let alone one for a bomb that probably wouldn't make a difference since she'd be inside Cell.

Vegeta and the garlic jr arc- Who cares about some stupid earthlings. I leave and train until i become a super saiyan and come back to beat goku.
Ssj3 gotenks and buu-I would toy until the end and finally kill him.
Krillin and android 18-There are plenty of fish in the sea. Deactivate and destroy. Try and get maron again? haha
Nickytown citizen-run like a nigga.

Regarding the Nickytown scenario: I would have tried my best to find weapons. I bet that I would end up with a broomstick (which I would break off so that it would have a sharp end) or a kitchen knife. Maybe I would combine them both into a spear.
Then I would find food and water and hide deep in a basement, pretty much not moving at all unless I had to for a few days. Then I would leave the house, hoping that the coast was clear.
With my luck, if I hadn't been attacked already, Cell would be standing there waiting since he felt my aura, devouring me. And when he presented his power to Piccolo as we see in the anime, you would see my face amongst all those other people's.

Another scenario: You are at your house/apartment. Someone knocks on your door. You look through the peephole on the door and #17, #18 and #16 are standing there. What would you do?
I would firstly piss my pants. Then I would probably scream in a cracked voice that Goku wasn't there. They would still barge in, I bet, and I would ask them to make it quick.
If I didn't know who they were, I would have opened the door unknowing of the death that awaited me, asking them what they wanted (with a smile on my face).

Ah, that's a pretty good scenario you got there. Presumably they'd be looking for Goku, but I wouldn't know that. I'd open the door hesitantly and ask them what they wanted. They'd likely ask me something about Goku, in which I'd reply "Whom?" and they'd kill me on the spot, maybe. The present time line #17 and #18 never killed anyone, I don't think, not in the manga, if I recall correctly. So I might get off with my life, who knows, they might even like me a little... Or hate me considerably. D:

For the Android scenairo, I'd probably go grab the nearest gun, placed it on my head or mouth and end it, knowing that that would be better than dying a painful death by two bloodcrazy teenagers or being absorbed by Cell (not that I would accept suicide as a proper response in real life, nor do I approve of it.)

You somehow manage to escape the vicinity of that particular building. Luckily the monster hasn't noticed you yet, but its only devoured 40% of the town at this point. You're near the center of the city, so you're a few kilometers from being able to escape the vicinity of the actual city. You assume the creature's incredibly fast and can hear very good. What is your plan of action?
I'd likely find somewhere to hide, like the basement of a large building, and just pray that Cell never finds me. I wouldn't know anything about Dragon Ball, so obviously I'd have no idea Cell can just sense my presence and follow my ki. I'd probably just cower in said basement and wait as long as I could, until I was either sure that the creature was gone, or until he suddenly bursts through the wall and grabs me.

Heh, the androids scenario would be wild. So I'm assuming you are real life you, knowing about Dragon Ball etc, and recognize these characters. Well, my first response would be like "What's going on? Why are there cosplayers?"

Then I'd open the door and get a closer look... I'd probably realize that this was real, because #16 is huge and all and it looks a little too real to be a cosplay. I'd probably ask them what they want, trying to act outwardly calm, but having a pounding heart.

Depending on what they wanted, I'd either try my best to provide it, or try to bs my way out. If they were like "what do we want? Why, to kill you, of course"--or something along those lines--I'd still continue to play dumb, pretending there's no way they could do that... on the off chance that this really was some kind of practical joke. I wouldn't want to end up looking stupid if I fell to my knees and begged for mercy and it turned out to be a really good prank.

So until the end I'd be like "what are you talking about? Get out before I call the cops" even though my terrified mind would be screaming at me how dangerous this trio is.

They'd ever leave or kill me, or possibly just hurt me and leave me sprawled out on the ground in agony, but in which case as soon as they were gone, I'd pull a Namek Gohan and start laughing to myself that I survived somehow.

Regarding the androids: I would piss my pants and ask "God" to give me a reason to believe even though god is some stupid namekian.

What would you do if you were little year old gohan being trained by piccolo? I would cry and cry until piccolo either gives up or kills me. I am lazy.

I'd probably do whatever the hell he told me to since he's a seven foot tall green monster... I mean, it'd either be survive or die, so I'd try to buck up 'nd survive to the best of my ability.

Androids- pretend I'm not at home. I don't open the doors to strangers. If they are from some reason already in- ask them for the tea and apple pie with whipped cream. If they are very hungry I could make Hungarian stew with pasta and potatoes. Take them aback and pull off the evil hour.

Cell- Find the best place to hide I could. Or run towards my home.

Piccolo and Gohan- do my best, they don't call me ambition embodiment of the ambition for no reason.

Eire, I bet that if you didn't open the door they would just kick it in. :p

About the Gohan scenario: I would most certainly do my best out of pure fear of my own life. I wouldn't whine as Gohan did though, and I would certainly not tell Piccolo that my father thinks he is nicer than Piccolo Daimao. That would be like asking for a death sentence.
I would do as he said in the most silent way, not provoking him and not expressing any kind of opinion, nor any kinds of wishes. If he asked me to eat dinosaur poop, I would probably have done that.

I'd try to collect some food, water and weapons (maybe stolen from various deserted shops), then hide out in the basement of my house. I'll wait for a while until I thought that the coast was clear, maybe to collect some rations. By that time, maybe Cell would've gone in pursuit of #17 and #18. If not, he'd sense my ki and confront me. I'd launch my assault of weapons on him, only for them to fail and I'd get absorbed.

As I'd have no knowledge of the Androids, I'd ask them who they are. They'd ignore me and barge in, searching for Gokuu. I'd rage and try to throw them out (if they told me they were looking for Son Gokuu, I'd retort that I didn't know who the hell he was), and they'd either kill me, give me cold hard stares, or just smash me into a wall or something without killing me. If I survived, they'd realize that Gokuu wasn't there and walk out, leaving me to sit on the floor, sweaty with fear as I slowly stand up and try to make sense of what just happened. Then I'll lock all the doors, so they couldn't return, and clean up my house.
Mystic Gohan wrote:What would you do if you were little year old gohan being trained by piccolo?
I would try to comply through my tears and anger at my predicament, and eventually warm to Piccolo as a father figure and ask him if he can materialize a cape like his for me (like Gohan's outfit in DBZ Movie #2).

Androids:
If I recognised them as the Androids I'd probably let them in and play nice like they did in the store, and would NOT ask for pay like those fools did.
Or I just wouldn't answer.

Gohan? I would probably quickly die since I have always had a moral obligation against killing animals.
I would be scared shitless.

I'd be thinking, "Wow... I knew it!" I mean, if I were Goku I'd always feel I would've had to have been an alien or something special. I wouldn't really care that I killed my grandfather, but I would try and find out more about my origins. I'd probably sense Piccolo around the Kame House and ask him to come out, asking everyone to take him on at once. Truth be told, I wouldn't care if I was related to him, so considering how he was treating both my friends and myself, I'd be more than ready to take him head on.

I'd denounce my heritage (and cut off my tail, if I still had it), since I was born 'n bred on Earth anyway and I'd identify as an Earthling. "Nurture over nature" and all that. I'd tell my brother to fuck off back to his own planet. I'd feel sad that I'd killed my grandfather, of course, and that guilt would probably plague my life for a while until I went through counselling.

New scenario:
What would you do if you were Vegeta and Babidi was trying to take over your mind? Would you allow him to do so for power gain or deny his entrance?

I'd probably fight it, I wouldn't feel comfortable being someone's puppet.

Goku scenario origins-I would probably be too filled with grief too fight back against my brother. I would die.
Majin vegeta-I wouldn't let him take over my mind. No rivalyry is worth my soul.
