Nataly 38 #1 January 12, 2012 A murderer is going to kill someone and asks you to choose who. All you know is: - 1 is an elderly woman. She is raising her grand-child who would become an orphan a second time if the woman died. - 1 is a young man. He has his whole life ahead of him. He is an arrogant youth whom everyone hates. - the last person is yourself. You can volunteer and set the other two free. Who do you pick?"There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mickochet 0 #2 January 12, 2012 1. How old is the woman? 2. How old is the grandchild? 3. How old was the grandchild when their parents died? 4. Is the young man a freeflier? 5. Is the young man a swooper? 6. Is the young man a skygod?If you never fall down you aren't trying hard enough. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #7 January 12, 2012 Quote Are either of these people related to me, or owe me money ? Definitely save the person who owes you money, and use it to make them feel really guilty if they don't pay you back promptly. Family members...it depends on which one. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andrewwhyte 1 #9 January 13, 2012 Killing the kid seems a good option. The alternative is to put it to the youth. I will save you, but you have to raise the kid. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
