If anybody know already about this question already, please don't answer the true meaning behind it, I will 'reveal' the answers on June 27, here and on other thread
There is no right or wrong answer, all answer is acceptable.
I'd chuck the elephant first, then the tiger, then the dog, then the monkey, and if I had to keep one animal, it would be the peacock. The others are too damn heavy to keep on a sinking ship. Well. At least the dog and up. The monkey probably doesn't weigh much - but he can go too =P
I would chuck the tiger first. In order Elephant, Dog, Peacock, Tiger, Monkey. I hate cats and other primates (Except guerrillas). Sorry, I just do not like them.
I Would've left behind the elephant for the fact it's weight would help prevent the boat from flaoating. Most important to me would be the dog. My friend would be the dog and they are lovable and they love you back. In order @ to 5 they are 2) the Peacock because its a magestic creature, 3) Monkey, 4) Tiger there vicious i need to get rid of it, 5) the Elephant stated above.
wouldn't it already have sunk because of the combined weight of all the animals? or the elephant alone is enough to make it sink. but wait, what kind of boat is it?
Yes, how deep is the water? What if I'm in a swimming pool? How could a tiger be on the same boat as you without it trying to kill you? I don't understand what you meant by:
You are in a boat with your friend(your friend is animal, you have 5 animals).
How deep is the water? This may affect my answer... wouldn't it already have sunk because of the combined weight of all the animals? or the elephant alone is enough to make it sink. but wait, what kind of boat is it?
Wait, if the boat is sinking how do we leave? How can I leave one behind if the ship sinks and we all drown?
If the ship really is going to sink, why throw any of them?
Please don't mind the story too much, don't think too much or too hard, just simply answer the question plz, thx.
Umm guys, I forget to give you hints, but I will give the hints on June 26 and the answer on June 27.
It's not truly an animal, but you it represents something.
Tiger represents.... Monkey represents....
June 26 OK.
but wait a second, they're my friends right? so why would i want to get rid of any of them? i wouldn't throw my real friends over board.
Sorry for my bad English, I'm an Indonesian. I mean your friend is animal(no other human, just you and 5 animals on board)
I would throw: 1) Elephan (because is too heavy) 2) Tiger (same reason) 3) Dog (eats more than the other animals) 4) Monkey (I can't think a reason for keeping it to the boat) 5) Peacock (small and nice animal)
You are alone in a boat, they are 5 animals with you now (all of these animal is your close friend, but you have to choose to throw all of them one by one). The boat is going to sink in 10 minutes(Don't mind the story too much or think too hard just simply answer the question).
Tiger Monkey Dog Peacock Elephant
Each of these animal represents some meaning behind it(So, it's not truly you throw an animal away, just a metaphorical language)
You say don't get philosophical, but you use symbols. How else would you answer a philosophical question?
1.) Tiger (it is dangerous, and while throwing off other animals, would attack me at the sight of danger to it) 2.) Dog (it's loyal, and would become an enemy after it saw fellow animals being thrown off) 3.) Monkey (hard to control, may tip the boat) 4.) Elephant (have more time to throw it off with less obstacles and distractions) 5.) Peacock (it's what's left)
If i answered too "in-depth", then how should it be answered?
