well...there's no way of knowing how the old man was in his life...if he was a nice old man but grumbly because he lived alone or his kids have left him to die because he was a liability to them, then I would definitely try to save him.

(PS :- A lot of old people I ve met are leading such lives because their grown up children cannot support them anymore in their old age...how must they be leading their lives?)

If otherwise, then I d let him burn. No use risking my life and those who are dependent on me for someone such as him. He probably lived his days anyway.

I remember you mentioning about it when you had that leg operation of yours last year. It still sucks to have it though...hopefully it ll stay in control throughout your life.

OK, I can understand that. You've also just accidentally fallen into the "I'd save the baby" answer :)

It's like s/he got a chance and now you can give someone else a chance, even if your seeing to an early exit for your friend. I guess on the scale going up to oh eternity the difference between 20 years and 80 just isn't that significant.


ENTITY: I hope things work out, keep me posted. I know you can't trust the opinions of asshole doctors around here, hope your doctors are better :mad:

but what are you saving?

potentially 5 or 10 years of yelling at kids on your lawn? :) You'd put that up against your own life?

A human life is a human life. When we value ours and of those who are close to us, why not of someone who must have lead a long, unhappy and bleak one?

Like I said, it all depends on what kind of person he is. If he's an asshole, I d let him burn to a crisp and prolly use the fire to have a barbecue or something.

whoa whoa whoa back it up. What happened to a human life is a human life? Now you're having a barbeque to the cacophony of screams and burning flesh? That is a nice mental image though... ;)

I'm nice to certain people
I'm mean to other people
I give blood frequently
I hate fat people
I'm shallow
I'm arrogant
I'm very selfish sometimes
I think death can be extremely funny (some people think this alone qualifies me as a horrible person)

What am I? A good person or an asshole? well that all depends on who you ask. ;)

you had it right on the first line though, there's no way of knowing how the old man was in his life. :cool:

My feeling is why should I have to risk your life to save someone else's? If anything I think that unfair to me that it would be some how expected by people. Some people would say that's selfish, but I'm not going to risk my life to save someone that doesn't directly effect me. Even my reason for wanting to save someone is selfish, because I'd be saving them because of their effect on MY life.

So let's get back to the question... Do you save the baby or your friend?

If I really have to choose 1 from those two...I d go for the friend. For the simple reason that he/she has a life of their own, and people love him/her and are dependent on him/her...

On the other hand, a baby who's just come to the world, will not be much affected (or much missed either if both its parents are dead) if it has a quick death. At least, it will be spared from the vagaries, suffering and ingloriousness that the world has to offer to it.

was reading through some comments earlier, mainly those of a pretentious asshole and a mindless puppet.
I get it...so next time you agree with someone you're a mindless puppet too? I assume you're talking about the chick you think you're gonna get a reaction from, since you've always had fun taunting her in the past like the snide little insecure bitch you are, but yknow you're talking about angra the mindless puppet too, right?
FYI, Last I checked, the mindless puppets were the ones that went with the majority, aka - YOU and the rest...so...might wanna consider that before you even attempt to think you're above anyone or anything...for as worldly and clever as you try to come across, generally you're just a condescending ass who probably lives with her parents and knows fuck all about life...not a whole lot more.

However, you've actually made a half decent thread here...so as arrogant a jerk you were in doing so, my mission is accomplished, bet that stings some, huh?

In response...
If it's only more towards an aquaintance than a friend, and a baby that I knew little of other than what I'd heard, I'd consider the baby more of a priority. I would imagine the baby would grow into a strong person, and perhaps their experience will gear them towards helping others in the future...if I were to compare that with people that I only sometimes hang with, it would be a more favourable potential outcome...of course I'd feel some small loss, no doubt...but if they're only a "sometimes" friend, I'd have to assume there'd be a reason why they weren't a better friend. Again, I'd see greater potential for humanity in the baby. May not turn out how I'd think...but I'm only going on personal perspective, it's not as though there's any "right" answer here.
