BeemerBoy Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 You and a person you love deeply are placed in separate rooms with a button next to each of you. You know that you will both be killed unless one of you presses your button before 60 minutes pass; furthermore, the first to press the button will save the other person, but will immediately be killed. What do you think you would do?
Scaparri Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 I'd immediately press the button. No thought even goes into it for me. Just press it before the person I love does.
Wes Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 I'd press the button that stopped hypothetical questions from being asked.
BeemerBoy Posted May 18, 2006 Author Posted May 18, 2006 ^ Would the Xanttans approve of that answer? Or maybe that thread didn't qualify as hypothetical to you?
pete4winds Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 "What's this encrypted double-key-locked button do?"
BelizeIt Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 I'll do whatever I feel "Jigsaw" expects me to do. But for you to find out, you'll have to wait until Saw III premiers this October.
slick Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 If they were playing Sugababe's "push the button" in the background for the duration of this hypothetical question, hell, it'd me a matter of who runs to the button the quickest.
waterviper Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 I would walk out of the room, walk to the next room get my loved one and go home!
BeemerBoy Posted May 18, 2006 Author Posted May 18, 2006 Well, like it says in the post title.....some of us like to use our brains. Scott "it's nice to know who you can trust" B.
DerekRx Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 I wouldn't let me and my loved one get captured in the first place.
Hercules Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 I'll do whatever I feel "Jigsaw" expects me to do. But for you to find out, you'll have to wait until Saw III premiers this October. THIS OCTOBER!!! Sweet. I would press the button as soon as I got into the room.
coasterfreak101 Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 That is SO a trick question, cause no bad guy is stupid enough to only have one of you die. You see, you would, hypothetically press the button to save your loved one. They would watrch you die on a (hypothetical) TV screen. They would cry, cry, cry in the other (hypothetical) room. Then after 53 seconds (it took 7 secs for you to press the button and die) your loved one would die too. The guy wouldn't just let one of you die (hypothetically, of course), duh, that would be stupid. --Tyler
BeemerBoy Posted May 20, 2006 Author Posted May 20, 2006 Then you, along with many others trying hard to be funny, would be living under a red sky. Scott " " B.
ParkTrips Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 Do I at least get a last meal? If so, brisket with velvetta mac and cheese please.. and don't let their sauces touch, dammit, this would be my last meal, don't screw it up!!
BeemerBoy Posted May 20, 2006 Author Posted May 20, 2006 ^ Figures you'd chime in. Yes, and I won't even charge you $12 either. You've been raped enough by the Papa this year.
