Let's say...
You're standing on a dock that sits over a lake.
You see your pet and a stranger drowning, your pet on the left and the stranger on the right. They are both the same distance away from you.
You only have time to save one, so you must choose. [b]There's absolutely no way to save both of them.[/b]
So who would you save?
-
Are we really all this selfish?
-
what if your pet's an amphibian? Mine's a dog, by the way. He can swim. He'd probably save the other guy before I could decide. If I had to choose, I'd save my pet though.
-
I would save the stranger then punch him for falling in so I had to save him also he's buying my next pet
-
Why is the stranger by himself and why are they in a lake if they can't swim? My pet, because this hypothetical would be extremely rare and thus makes it a stupid question.
-
The stranger, my dog knows how to -blam!-ing swim unlike the ass hat I'm about to save.
-
Objectively it must be the stranger. As much as I love my pets they aren't as fundamentally valuable or important as a human life.
-
I hate these kind of threads because it sickens me to see how little a human life means to another.

-
Stranger
-
A stranger... Human>animal that only loves you because it is trained to love you
-
I don't have a pet so stranger it is.
-
My pet, I'd save any animal over a human being.
-
Dogs can swim from birth, so my dog would help save the stranger :D
-
I know I would try to save both regardless, but in the heat if the moment I would probably jump at whatever is thrashing about more. The squeaky wheel gets the oil.
-
my pet died already... so I won't save the stranger
-
my pet, I would feel bad for the stanger but I love my pet and won't betray him.
-
My pet. Known her since I was 1 years old. Pet, All day. Er'ryday.
-
Pet all the way.
-
The stranger, unless the stranger is the one who took my pet out into the lake.
-
My pet I don't know nor do I care about that random person
-
My pet can swim. So can the stranger. They both swim out, then we go enjoy some shawarma.
-
Easy my pet, I don't care what anyone says but I had my pets since I was 4 and I don't even know this other guy, if I have to deal with his/her family so be it I'm saving my dog and that's final

Humans suck Although I would never want to be in that situation

Call in air strike and say wtf * blows up * everyone
