Trapped On An Island

If you were trapped on a tropical island, where food and water were plentiful, and you would never be able to escape, what three things would you bring? If you bring say a laptop, it would never run out of power/break, and the same goes with other perishable items.

does the laptop have wireless internet connection?

jonos · **Posted:** Thu May 06, 2004 10:45 am

Well then you'd bring laptop with wireless internet connection.

I'd bring a laptop with wireless internet connection and games and stuff on it.
I'd bring a girl.
I'd bring an acoustic guitar.

*Gasp* He's treating women as objects, darkness said things!
Ha... if u had friends like mine, you'd find yourself lying on the floor wondering what the heck just hit you.

The whole idea here is that you can't get off the island, no matter what you bring.

Paul · **Posted:** Thu May 06, 2004 7:37 pm

Got it,
I'd bring a magical box that could containt he whole world, and you yourself can go into the box.
or
A matrix machine (like the matrix in the matrix), that I could hook up to lol.

What would I bring?

- a laptop (can I assume it comes prepackaged with Mandrake 10?)
- a CD filled with all the wonderful turing programs from this site
- a well made katana

(can you guess why?)

Dauntless · **Posted:** Thu May 06, 2004 7:48 pm

Well, I'd assume the katana would be to kill the water that you'd need to drink.

Mazer · **Posted:** Thu May 06, 2004 7:55 pm

I didn't think anyone would catch that! I'm glad you don't expect me to eat my water live like a sick animal. Yes, I kill it first. Then I would use the laptop for heat (to start a fire) and the CD would be a sort of heating plate. Clever Dauntless. I'd give you bits, but we all know that they cause cancer and lower your sperm count so... here, have some exp points!

Dauntless has received 1200 experience points.
Dauntless has levelled up.

Dauntless · **Posted:** Thu May 06, 2004 7:59 pm

Fuck it Mazer, don't you watch TV? George W. says that experience points are part of the Axis of Evil...I don't want anything to do with that shit.

And you better hope that katana is well made indeed. I've seen what becoming a raw water-eater does to men who have nothing but excessive porn and Turing. Some say it makes you loco. That's Spanish for "the crazy".

Oh nos!

Why turing programs from this site? they don't conduct heat better than any other sort of info.
