    a dog is just a dog. maybe one would be nicer than you but then i think your mother would choose you over a dog.

    that is easy to say now.

    Nope. I value my dignity. The day I start needing nappies is the day I'll be found dead from an opiate overdose.

    If you truly did value your dignity, incontinence would not threaten it.

    I do, and you can scour the forums to find similar answers by me (plus the reasons why) to similar questions.

    I would kill the dog

    Would you rather be a janitor or a garbage man?

    I knew you would kill a random person before the dog that saved your life, but I wasn't sure if you would have the same answer for your own child - especially because you believe that a bad child is the result of bad parenting (if I recall correctly) so you would be killing your daughter for your own failings. Maybe she is so misbehaved and your dog is so loyal because you treat him better than her.

    Janitor!
    Hell, I'd rather be a janitor than the job I have now - I wish I could afford it!

    Would you rather be rich and have a dissatisfying job or poor and be proud of your work?

    I would maybe kill a complete stranger over a life-long dog companion. But I say that now.. lol There is also the issue of retribution.
    That said, I don't think I can really kill anything without good cause.

    with age comes wisdom. I'd rather be poor and proud.

    Would you rather have pie or cake?

    Um...what does this mean?

    It's hard to have dignity when you are peeing over yourself.

    It means that dignty is something which comes from the inside and can not be taken away - only relinquished.
    I've seen filthy, smelly, starving homeless people with more dignity than most I have known in my life.

    I don't care. I value being lucid and self sufficient more than I care about being alive for its own sake.

    Thus, Adult Nappies => Death by opiate overdose

    Fair enough.
    Far be it from me to keep someone from self-induced euthenasia.
    My only point was that if you value dignity, you will keep and hold it - regardless of how well you can hold your crap.

    So back to 'would you rather'...

    Here is a situation for you. One of your closest friends is addicted to drugs and needs help. You have no money and need to eat and pay bills. You do have access to drugs...

    Would you rather sell the drugs to your best friend (knowing it's a shitty thing to do) and have a full tummy...

    or

    Would you do what's best for your friend, not sell the drugs, and go hungry?

    Myself. I would NEVER do that to my mother. I would die before I sunk to such depths.

    Would you rather...

    Be an athiest who comes face to face with "God" and the absolute truth that there is life after death

    or

    A theist who discovers absolute proof that there isn't a "God" and death is the end of existence?
