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?

Edited by ducksToDucks: 8/5/2014 12:45:03 AMWouldn't a pet be able to swim? Why can't the person swim? Real answer: neither.
-
My pets can swim though...
-
I'd save the person. My dog knows how to swim, and I'll just come back for my dog later. After all, there is no guarantee that the person knows how to swim.

I hate people. But I believe there need to be those willing to sacrifice themselves for humanity to function. I would give my life for another. And proudly have put myself in situations where I was prepared to do so, but just was fortunate enough that it didn't come to my demise.
-
What if you can't swim? Do you apologize and walk away?
-
If the stranger is a hawt female who is willing to sleep with me. I will choose doge.
-
The stranger. I make sacrifices. I'm like that.

Muh doge
-
My friend who just happens to be a dog.
-
My dog. -blam!- the stranger.
-
Since it's a stranger? My pet. If it was someone I actually knew and had some sort of connection with, I might choose them instead, depends on who they were.
-
Stranger saving the pet is kinda messed up
-
....My dog can swim
-
Stranger. I love my cat, but I value human life above animal life.

#shadowjitsu [spoiler]It cannot be undone.[/spoiler]
-
Obviously the stranger
-
My pet even though I don't have one. The stranger would likely struggle and drown me.
-
I would go for the stranger, (especially female) cos you don't know what would happen next...[spoiler]publicity, all that kinda stuff (money)[/spoiler]
-
Muh cat. -blam!- him. Unless she's a sexy girl. Then I'm saving her.
-
Stranger [spoiler]especially a beautiful female [/spoiler]
-
Stranger Danger
-
My pet.
-
You really need to elobrate on the stranger-part.
-
Why would I take my cat to a -blam!-ing lake?
