You only need one side's information and estimate the odds of the stranger living a "better" life than the person you know and like. It's not too hard to realise this either. I'm sure both of you could have known the answer to that question yourself. :) I wouldn't necessarily choose to save a loved one over a stranger, there are of course situations that I will. I'm just saying that choosing your loved one without any regard for the situational context would be an example of letting my emotions get the best of yourself, which I consider beneath me.
You'll come to miss hanging over the toilet evantually.
Let's justify crime by saying that from now on. I mean, it's a valid argument in your logic, so why not? Should work, right? Seriously, you just sound lazy enough to show no interest in trying to offset possible flaws though. Nobody likes such people, really. There are many kinds of selfishness too. What you display is a primitive and superficial kind. You can just as easily gain satisfaction out of making yourself useful instead of being an emotional vampire who denies another's happiness to fulfill his own. ;) What if my loved one is an old man while the stranger is a youngster with his whole life ahead of himself? What if my loved one isn't loved by many other people while the stranger has a large family that desires him among the living? What if my loved one is unhappy while the stranger is content with his life?
That's quite selfish if your only criterium is a tighter bond with the person you save.
Far fetched is quite a ******ed choice of words. Science and the hypotheses flown from it are more often than not acknowledged due to their logic and coherence. Evolution is a good example actually. I ask of thee: given the aeons of time that have passed, is it really so improbable for a coincidence to have occured? You are correct. It is indeed not at all far fetched that something "that we cannot understand" (*rolls over the floor laughing* :D) went zap and an entire universe was created. And how did he do it? Beats me. Beats you. Beats us all. We'll just say that we can't understand it and call it a day. ;)
This. ......
Yeah. It has that effect on a lot of people. I prefer it over "magic ninja powerz lolz" anime though. I'm not necessarily an action/adventure/flashiness seeker.
How many KH-Vids members does it really take to change a light bulb? None. They're all emo kids who prefer crying in the dark.
Just a random guess... Trap thread in disguise = a thread that looks like a trap thread but actually isn't, meaning they are women?
I'm feeling non-conformist today so I won't do this.
Taking the Spam Zone (or Renegade for that matter) seriously is the internet equivalent of stepping in dog shit when it's lying right in front of you, then eating your shoe, and finally wiping the rest of the excrements away with your sleeve.
You can still save your last sliver of dignity by setting yourself on fire right now.
I'd probably kill a few people to save more, but only if there is absolutely no other alternative.
Reminds me of the time when I wrote an 19-pages-long essay on the differences between an apple and a pear. Good job, Dalk.
"Zaaion", I think.
Keep telling yourself that. You might start believing it eventually.
Envy is one of the deadly sins, sweetie.

I don't hate anything. I smile happily and spread flowers everywhere.
Doesn't bother me. There's only one member here that knows mine though.
