Title: If You Were Trapped On A Raft...
Description: Which item would you have?
Dragon Fanatic - August 23, 2007 03:07 AM (GMT)
OKay, you were on a cruise ship when bang! It hit a reef and flooded! You escaped on a tiny piece of wood with 8 items:
Your Ipod
A small bag of popcorn
A stupid bird
A Golf Club
A can of diet soda
A blanket
A pair of sunglasses
A Book
You only have enough room for one of the items. Otherwise, you sink to the sharks who have an enjoyable dinner.
What would you take?
I would take the stupid bird, because if it fails to save me and I'm hungry...

Blanket because if used properly you could help delay dehydration and epending on color use it for signaling. Also last but not least by any means, if attacked by sharks then if you could get it between you and it then you could confuse it or even if your lucky cut off its water intake thereby suffocating it and getting it to eat. YUMMY!!!!

iPod. I'm a music addict. At least I'd have an enjoyable death (sorta). Besides, all ya gotta do is hit a shark on the nose and it'll swim away.
Da Suga Queen - August 23, 2007 08:22 AM (GMT)
Go the golf club. I could bash up those sharks and anything else that tries to mess with me. Rawr! <_<
Khatah - August 23, 2007 08:28 AM (GMT)
GO THE BOOK!!! only because I would probably die of bordem on a raft having to survive for days. And I dont think those sharks would even think of messing with me.

Ah, but not with these types of sharks. These ones are Jaws' Cousins.

Oh, that would be so much fun...if they weren't Jaws' cousins.

A blanket, because of Hydrag's reasons, and you never know how cold the nights are, plus I'll have shelter if it rains. Perhaps I'll also, somehow, use it as a sail...as for the sharks...well I had a good run...
Burnout Beau - August 24, 2007 09:35 AM (GMT)
I would bring a golf club. :plot:
For me, there's plenty of things I can do with a golf club, such as:
- tying my shirt to it like a pole and starts waving like mad (to get the pilot's attention if a helicopter flew by!).
- whacking fishes or sharks that got too close to my raft. And maybe also whales...
- shooing annoying sea gulls that tried to steal my meal (if I can get a meal!).
- throwing it with all my might at any incoming ship to get their attention (to rescue me!).
- breaking it in half to vent my anger if all rescue attempts failed!
Kay Yasha - August 25, 2007 02:25 AM (GMT)
Golf Club, for bashing stuff.
Dragon Fanatic - August 25, 2007 10:35 PM (GMT)
You guys make uses for the golf club so funny! :lol: :lol:
Da Suga Queen - August 26, 2007 04:29 AM (GMT)
I wouldn't call bashing up Jaws' cousins funny. I'd call that dangerous. Don't get any ideas kids! Shark bashing is dangerous! :eep:
Bedouin Pirate - August 26, 2007 11:35 AM (GMT)
Does this raft ever land on a desert island? If it does I'd take the book. It's a piece of humanity to hold on to and treasure. And if worst comes to wrose, you could at least use it as kindling.
I'm torn between the blanket and the golf club though. Both have tremendous amounts of uses.
Also, is this stupid bird an animal or can we use the English slang (meaning girl or woman)? I'd rather take a stupid women. Some female company and then if I get bored and annoyed by her stupidity I could feed her to the sharks.

Lol, misogyny r so funnee!
I go the drink. Dehydration's probably the biggest problem, and with sugar in it as well that's a little nutrition.
Dragon Fanatic - August 27, 2007 05:17 PM (GMT)
Lol! :lol: I don't think there's any nutrition in pop! (except in diet, but it wrecks your brain cells :faint: )

How is that misogyny? There was nothing in my post that implied it at all.

Oh, I didn't think of that idea, about bashing the sharks with golf club, so I thought it was kinda funny.

Deathshallcome - August 28, 2007 07:08 PM (GMT)

Dragon Fanatic - August 28, 2007 07:56 PM (GMT)

Dragon Fanatic - August 28, 2007 08:26 PM (GMT)
Well, it sucks to be you cause I'm a fast long distance runner. (1.6 km is less than 7 minutes. Makes you tired. :faint: ) Okay Birdie! Attack! *birdie attacks Deathshallcome*
Deathshallcome - August 28, 2007 11:18 PM (GMT)
*smash birdy away* Well sorry to tell you but track and field runner 1st place! in the longest one... crud can't remember its name for High school.
Dragon Fanatic - August 28, 2007 11:40 PM (GMT)
Oh, you probably had a smooth track. I had to go through trees, like 6 times up hill, and it was pouring! That...made me one of the fastest runners in the history of the school!
Oh, I had another race like that about an hour ago. Except it was over 3 miles, up 8 steep hills, through 2 forests of thick trees with roots sticking out (alas. so many racers fell. :( Except me and a couple of other people. :D ) And it is pouring outside! And I finished 1st out of 25 with a time of under 15 minutes! I've been training for it, so I really sped up...a lot! :D )
Deathshallcome - August 29, 2007 12:53 AM (GMT)
Not quite it had tons of rocks on it and the terry fox run I did I came in second place which is really hard to do so especially if you did the run we did. But were going off topic lets steer back on topic shall we?
Dragon Fanatic - August 29, 2007 12:55 AM (GMT)
Ah. Just my thought exactly. *gives big hug* Truce?
Deathshallcome - August 29, 2007 01:01 AM (GMT)
Alrightie :D lets get back on topic.

Okay, to me, that's very insulting. Not all women are like that. Majority or super smart. To me, that's very sexist.
Deathshallcome - August 30, 2007 12:16 AM (GMT)
I admit some are but not all are stupid some are very smart. I have come across some that are smart but also some that are stupid. That is what being a human being is all about even guys are stupid as well at times.
Dragon Fanatic - August 30, 2007 12:57 AM (GMT)
No offense to some of the guys here, but some guys just feed on stupid girls/woman and if they're blonde or anything else.
Sarah Frost - August 30, 2007 01:11 AM (GMT)
There are fictional characters both male and female I wouldn't mind having meet various quirky deaths, but "bird" isn't an especially nice term for women in the first place, and chucking some random women overboard to get eaten by sharks because she's just too stupid to put up with isn't much of a joke. I don't find violence against woman-as-stupid-disposable-object amusing.
Dragon Fanatic - August 30, 2007 01:15 AM (GMT)
Deathshallcome - August 30, 2007 01:26 AM (GMT)
Double Agreed Sarah Frost.
Dragon Fanatic - August 30, 2007 04:49 PM (GMT)
To me, Bedouin Pirate. You should give an apology for all the girls who answered in this topic for insulting the female gender. We are not stupid toys men can play with. We're more than that.

Women aren't a race.
Dragon Fanatic - August 30, 2007 09:26 PM (GMT)
*blushes* Yeah, I kinda was sleeping at that point, so I was barely able to add 2+2. :faint:
My bad. :D

And that's exactly what we're talking about.

I never said I agreed with it, just that I'd take a female with me if the term was allowed. Would you not rather have some human company in that situation?

It wouldn't matter if the person with me was male or female, if they were too stupid to put up with I'd rather use them to fend off the sharks. It just so happens that my post related to women.
Neither do I, but not once did I ever say women were stupid dispolsable objects. I implied that particular one was.
And again, where did I ever imply that I hate women? I seriously think you need to get off of your high horse. I'm all for feminism, infact I would go as far as calling myself and egalitarian/liberal feminist, however you're taking it too far. It seems that if you don't agree with something it's immediately anti-women.

The topic creator specifically said "stupid". I agree, not all women are stupid. I'd say most are, but not all (but that's not just women, but people in general).

No. I didn't insult women and I never said women were stupid toys just for men., so no apology. I made a post that Sarah Frost took way out of context. And please, inform me how is my post any more offensive than her baseless accusation that I'm a misoygnist?
Sarah Frost - September 7, 2007 12:16 PM (GMT)
Correction: I found your post misogynist-sounding. There is a slight, but appreciable, difference between what I actually said and "Bedouin Pirate is a total misogynist". I still find your post irritating. Take whatever offence to that as you wish.
