What would you do?
 

You and a person you love deeply are placed in seperate 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?

i would take away the longest thread contest because all the idiots are coming out with more and more lame, retarded, useless posts like this one.. just go and buy a fucking DVD player u can get one for 119$ these days.

Actually, being in the business that I'm in, movies are a tax write off. We have over 250 DVD's.

You are right, I was hoping for yet a third DVD player. The one upstairs and the one downstairs just aren't cuttin' in. So yeah, I asked a lame question in hopes that I could win a DVD player so we could watch a DVD while sitting in our home office.

Everything you said is right. Except I would spend a little extra to get the DVD player.

Congrats Mr. Pants, you proved me to be the shallow cock-smoker that I am.

Wouldn't it just be easier to ask if your relationship is strong enough with your loved one that you'd give your life to save them, and vice versa? No need for a contrived scenario http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

Geez Guys, Relax. Nice Question.

I guess it depends exactly who was in the other room. If it was my Girl, I would push it in a flash.

Good grief...... this is way more interesting than some of the ones I have seen asked on here......

I'd push that button in a heart beat........ no questions, no thoughts... I'd push it. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/wink.gif Yes I love him that much!!

I'd push it. But what would happen if you both pushed at the exact same time?

If I were given the choice I would fall deeply in love with you in hope that you would press the button first.

Well that raises an interesting question what happens in the event of a tie? Would an independent party kill us both instantly? Or would we both be both be let go?

Knowing my luck, the damn button would malfunction & I'll press the button first only to kill everybody in the world but me.

you think it's a simple answer -- just push the button -- but if she really loves you she'll live her life without you which may be even worse... also if you are religious it's a sin to take your own life -- better to both die romantically and hope for some sort of union in the afterlife... also if nobody presses the button you don't give the sick fucker (who invented this scenario) the satisfaction of victory -- they may even feel guilty for killing both of you -- because YOU and your loved one did not CHOOSE to be in this situation -- why should you dishonor yourselves by pressing a button (which results in death) -- i'd rather die at the hand of the fucker who put me in the room...
of course if you were in your own room, you don't even know that your loved one is in the other room -- you can't see them -- you don't even know if they will die if you press the button -- in fact you don't even know if pressing the button will do anything -- if you are given instruction on how the rooms work and how the buttons work, how can you believe that these are not lies... Better to not participate...

A better question would involve a little more invention -- come up w/ a physical device whereby the loved ones could see the results of their actions:

You and your loved one are tied down but you have one free arm each -- your heads are placed inside guillotines -- you are laying on your stomaches -- you can see each other -- you are each given a rope to hold which is attached to the blade above your loved one's neck... if you let go of the rope your loved one will die -- but you will be able to untie yourself and go free (with the free arm)... BTW: the rope is short enough so you can't pull it down to hold in your teeth... What do you do?

What would you do if you were holding the rope for your own guillotine and you were forced to watch the other person (ala Clockwork Orange)? Would you allow your lover to see you die -- would you tell your lover to let go of (his/her) rope so that they would not have to see you die (since you will both die anyway...) You can still speak to each other... What would you do? What would you say?
