You're in the military and your commander tells you and your fellow troops to go into a village and kill all of the innocent civilians. The village is in a 3rd world country that your country is waging war with. What would you do?
I wouldn't be able to join the military but if I could, I would disobey his/her orders. 👍
 
You are forced to either jump out of a crashing airplane and use your one and only parachute. Or stay on the plane and spend the remainder of the time with your family.

If I had to pick one option it'd have to be family.

If not, depends on how much family. Assuming it's who you live with; the kid and GF get the parachute - it'll hold two so long as they can hold onto eachother when they pull the chord (unlikely but possible). I'd stay in the hope I could somehow pilot the plane to a safe(er) landing.
 
You are on a small deserted island away from civilaisation and is impossible to swim out due to it being surrounded by whirlpools and the rescue plane doesn't come for another year.

I'd sit and ponder the existential crisis I'd be in by being on an impossible island. :ill:

I got in before the ninja edit :P

Serious answer: As long as it's possible to find drinking water and forage for food I'd chill out and settle down because tbh this scenario would be awesome!
 
I make a shelter.

I also make a calendar, so I would not go insane.

Try to find water, and other survivors of said disaster that put us on the island.

Cast Away
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
Bear Grylls
Sims Castaway Stories
etc.

There's so many ideas popping up in my head I'd actually enjoy being on a deserted island. Though do I have to be alone or can female companion be deserted too?
 
Congratulations, you found a time machine capable of going to any point of time between 1900 and 2100. When do you go?
 
New scenario!

You are in a bank, and a dangerous group of criminals bust in and hold you at gunpoint. They order you to kill the bystanders. What do you do?
 
Go back to 1900's and try to make society kinder, and save them from the self-caving mess of society, if you can call it that, that we have today.

Every year. Then go back to 2014 and share my car spots on the DYSAGT thread. Although it wouldn't necessarily be today :sly:

I'd also do other stuff, but I have no idea what it'd be.
