Your house containing everything you own catches fire. After saving your loved ones you have time to return for one last item. What do you retrieve?
Only one possession? My house.
>>713761532
My house.
>>713761532
my loved one is my laptop, so I would save my motorcycle...
>>713761532
Bag of marshmellos.
>>713761668
>>713761778
assume your house is beyond saving. obviously. you morons.
House.
My teddy that I've had since the day I was born.
>>713761876
You're the moron. A house is one item. You made the rules, not us, we're just playing by them.
>>713761532
My house obviously.
>>713761532
Alpha black lotus. With this one card i could end up with enough cash to start a new life from the ground up.
The house, easy.
>>713761532
My apartment.
My lucky jerry can or my keys.. you should never forget your keys.
The house.
>>713762163
>implying $20000 is enough to live a life on
What kind of retarded question is that? The house obviously.
omfg. You can't save the house you idiots. It's not a trick question. It says what do you retrieve as in from inside the house. It's an exercise to see what possessions you value the most. morons.
>>713761532
>you have time to return for one last item
Aight, I pick the house, that way I get everything back.
The last picture of my family before they died
>>713762479
sure and the insurance money we will recieve
>>713762582
>It says what do you retrieve as in from inside the house
No, it doesn't. It just says one item.
>It's an exercise to see what possessions you value the most. morons
Yeah, and the house is the possession we value the most. That's why we picked it, you retard.
>>713762582
>ok my house insurance policy
so i can get MY HOUSE
House
I don't own anything of value, can't I just sit inside the house?
I would return to save my house. easy
>>713761532
Pistol. G22. Assuming I took my car to get away from fire. Everything else I have has depreciated to basically nothing. All my other actual valuables I have left at my moms house until I settle into a spot semi permanently.
>>713762479
no, moron. implying I could sell it and have a base of cash to begin working on putting my life back together.
I pick the house. get rekt, OP.

>>713763566
You guys are making a pretty broad assumption that taking your house takes everything. You get one thing. A house is a house, not everything included after you made it a home.
>>713763769
I don't know how it wasn't obvious by the wording of the question that the house is not savable. That shit is up in flames. You have time to retrieve one last item before that shit collapses.
>>713763769
Op stated it contained everything you own... faggot
>>713763988
it's obvious the house is beyond saving.

a house is an asset not an item you morons.

Easy. Like this.
>>713761532
'loved ones' covers my doll collection, so that's cool
I guess I'd go back and grab my favorite pair of little girl's panties
>>713764058
No, OP said you have time for one item. That means no item is beyond saving. You can pick any.
>>713764776
it's not a trick question. It's an exercise to see what possessions your value the most. The house is beyond saving.
>>713764904
>It's an exercise to see what possessions your value the most.
What if the house IS my most valued possession?
>The house is beyond saving.
see
>>713764776
>>713764214
item
noun
1. a thing or unit, esp included in a list or collection
A house is a thing, so it's an item, retard.
>>713761532
my dog
>>713765022
then the exercise is pointless because everyone would choose the house. In this scenario you can't save the house.
Only a retard wouldn't pick the house.
>>713765444
Trips of truth.
>>713765330
I think a dog could be considered a loved one.
>>713764214
Your quite an asshat yourself.
>>713765444
this is why the house is not savable in this scenario because everyone would pick the house.
>>713762582
It doesnt
>>713765633
fair enough. Then I would grab the case that contains these.
>>713765415
>then the exercise is pointless because everyone would choose the house
Well yeah, it is. Blame OP for making such a retarded exercise.
>In this scenario you can't save the house.
That's not what the rules say.
>>713761532
box of old dymo machines and tapes.
>>713761532
Probably my laptop
>>713765753
No, according to OP's rules, it's savable. No need to proclaim that an answer is invalid just because you weren't smart enough to come up with it yourself, that's acting like a bitch.
My house
I live alone in a quite small apartment, and the most likely place for a fire to start (the kitchen) is all the way against the back wall. By default because of the size anything of value is 20ft or less from the front door, I could have anything worth saving out of my house in probably under a minute
>>713763769
But if you grabbed a box(say, of photos), you would get the contents as well. Therefore if you take the house, you get the contents.
the house obviously kek
>>713765792
what is name of that sniper rifle
>>713766224
I have 2 pretty valuable mountain bikes right next to the door though, those would get saved if nothing else
>>713765811
nigga I am OP and it should be obvious.
>>713766131
I am OP faggot! You're not smart because you picked the house. You're retarded because it's obvious that the house is beyond saving. You're supposed to ponder what possessions you value most in your life. inb4 you value the house most. that's dumb too.
>>713765792
good choice.
>>713763596
And when the fuck would a fire ever wait for you to take one item before burning everything down? Don't act as if like the question was realistic or made sense in the first place, faggot.

>>713766896
>implying there are girls on /b/
Can that one item contain items?...Id take my toolbag.
>>713767158
it's not that it's unrealistic you idiot. It's because it makes the exercise pointless because everyone would choose the house! It's obviously designed to make you think about what possessions you value the most. inb4 you value the house the most because that also negates the purpose of the thought exercise.
>>713762824
Lol
>>713766562
>You're not smart because you picked the house. You're retarded because it's obvious that the house is beyond saving

Picking the house is a completely valid move, you retarded faggot. No need to be so butthurt because you're too retarded to make rules without loopholes, moron.
>>713766562
>i'm op and make shit question full of loophole then get mad when said loophole get called out.
>>713767889
not valid at all. negating the purpose of a philosophical exercise is not "thinking outside the box" it's just faggotry. You are dumb. go die
>>713766562
"It should be obvious" isn't an argument for why you can't take the house. Do you even know what a loophole is? Next time make proper rules if you don't want people to take the house, idiot.
>>713768155
it's not a loophole if it destroys the purpose of the question. It's just dumb.
>>713761532
KEK easy as fuck! Just take the house kek!
>>713768502
It's not a fucking goddamn loophole if it destroys the purpose of the philosophical exercise. It's retarded to say house. There's no point to the question then. Obviously. If you really thought the purpose of this thread was to "find the loophole" then you are a moron because everyone would say they'd save the house.
I retrieve the fire.

most everyone here fails the basic socialization test: why are we gathered together, and what can i add to the gathering in terms of meaning. saying "house' just makes you look like an outlyer. arguing the point makes you worse than sheldon on big bang. needing this explained to anyone is pathetic.
ps adding something of monetary value is also dumb, unless you have no possessions of personal meaning. ill say it again: my stuffed lion doll, or the book my dad created for me when i was born. ANSWER THE QUESTION, SO WE CAN FEEL SOMETHING BEFORE WE DIE

I refuted (I'm assuming that's what you meant but I'm not entirely sure because you're a huge moron) your "loophole" nonsense easily. You are literally too stupid to understand why saying house is not a valid answer. I've tried several times to explain it to you but for some reason you think you've like hacked the game by saying house when really you just smashed the game with a hammer and threw it out the window. YOU ARE A MORON. I've never been more sincere when I've said those 4 words ever in my entire life. You are a moron.

i rarely post and yet i felt this was needed. Here is an addendum to your post.
"When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser." -Socrates
So the next time someone tries to feel intellectually superior to you and resorts to insulting you to try to drive their "point" home, just know in that instance that they have lost that debate through the sheer inability to have a civilized conversation. I am not a smart person but i try to surround myself with them and the one thing they seem to have in common is that they are unafraid to to fail. That's how they get so far in life. OP is basically an immature retard who can't agree that he lost. I'm surprised you anons haven't called him a faggot and abandoned thread.

You quote socrates but your so inept philosophically? There's no winning or losing. The entire purpose of the philosophical thought exercise is to think about what possessions you value. By saying house it negates the entire purpose. That's not "winning" that's just dumb. There would be no purpose to this exercise at all if the house was a valid answer because obviously that's what everyone would say. The fact that I even have to explain this is pathetic.

Nope, you didn't. According to the rules you have time to return for one last item, the house is an item, therefore you can take the house. Whether or not that's "the point of the exercise" is completely irrelevant, you dumbfuck. If the rules say you can, you can. Look up what a loophole is, you retarded faggot.
>You are literally too stupid to understand why saying house is not a valid answer.
You're literally too stupid to understand that IT DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER IF THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU MEANT BY THE RULES or if it "purpose of the philosophical exercise" or whatever. Once again, look up what a loophole is, autismo.
>I've tried several times to explain it to you but for some reason you think you've like hacked the game by saying house when really you just smashed the game with a hammer and threw it out the window.
And everyone has tried to explain why that's irrelevant, you fucking idiot. That's why what a loophole is, it's a technicality that allows a person to avoid the scope of a rule or restriction without breaking the rule. It's not supposed to act like you want it to, you autistic fuck.
>YOU ARE A MORON. I've never been more sincere when I've said those 4 words ever in my entire life. You are a moron.
You can't even come up with rules without easy loopholes and you're the one calling people morons? KEK

>>713772595
There is winning or losing. OP is trying to argue against everyone why you can't pick the house. Everyone says it's allowed according to the rules. OP unable to refute it, gets butthurt and resorts to childish insults, therefore OP loses the debate because he can't prove them wrong.
>>713761532
I choose the house.
>>713772994
destroying something is not a loophole you pathetic moron.
>>713772185
following by your logic, the whole "exercise" is pointless, because everything we took is a complex item. For example if I say - laptop. This would mean I save only empty plastic body without anything inside. Same comes for HDD. If I save only my HDD with all data, for you it would be sounded like I saved metal case without any hardware components inside.
So your point is just dumb or pointless, or dumb and pointless.
nothing new, OP is still fagget
>>713773975
I proved them wrong easily. If you think answering House is clever or somehow a loophole or thinking outside the box you're a moron. Not childish if true ;)
>>713761532

The only argument you made was that "it destroys the purpose of the exercise", which it completely irrelevant because that's not even what we were arguing about, you retard. The question was "are you allowed to take the house according to the rules?", not "is taking the house going to destroy the purpose of the exercise?". Learn how to debate, moron.

Why would a way to destroy the exercise be in the rules? Why would you create a game and but make it possible to make the game pointless? That's dumb as shit. There's no loophole in the wording of the question. That's dumb as shit. Why the fuck does this need to be explained? I guess I had more faith in /b/'s ability to be philosophical instead of looking for some simplistic angle.
>>713777025
>Why would a way to destroy the exercise be in the rules?
Because it's funnier than doing it "properly".
>Why would you create a game and but make it possible to make the game pointless? That's dumb as shit.
Agreed, it is dumb as shit. No idea why you did that.
>There's no loophole in the wording of the question. That's dumb as shit.
There is. Once again. You say we can take one item, a house is an item, therefore we can take the house.
>Why the fuck does this need to be explained?
You're not explaining anything, you retard. Just repeating the same irrelevant and invalid "argument". Everyone else is trying to make you understand why you're wrong but you're either too retarded to or too immature to accept that you were wrong.
>I guess I had more faith in /b/'s ability to be philosophical instead of looking for some simplistic angle.
Taking the house is literally the best choice, dumbass.
