Let's make it easy for everyone: Post here things you'd save before saving your pets

[LynneSin]

Um, at this point my mind is drawing a blank. I suppose if was between my cats and George Clooney the cats would have to wait. Outside of that I'm drawing a big blank!

[no name no slogan]

1. My virginity

[cwydro]

2. My parents.

But I don't live with them, so I suppose that doesn't count.

[MissMillie]

3. my kid, myself..... and that's it

[datasuspect]

4. the money and the cocaine

[mitchum]

5. And what the fuck is wrong with the heroin?

Opiate hater!

[ZombieHorde]

6. I don't have any pets, all the animals I buy are dead. nt

[sammythecat]

12. ....

:rofl:

[LostinVA]

7. My pets, favorite Doc Martens, then Haruka

[LynneSin]

8. Alex, I'll take "People sleeping on the Couch alone tonight" for $400 please

:eyes:

[LostinVA]

10. She likes the Docs, too -- she snakes them from me all the ime

[LynneSin]

11. yeah but what if the flames engulf the house right after you get the pets and the docs to safety

and poor Haruka is TRAPPED!!!

[LostinVA]

24. She is a skinny little thing -- she can slip through the flames

The kitties and doggies can't!

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

9. Maybe LostinVA and a slight chance for my sister

[bigwillq]

13. My parents.

My sister. Probably most members of my family. Some very close friends. My man.

[Midlodemocrat]

14. My children. But I would save the dogs if only because the three

Midlets would be inconsolable. :eyes:

[johnnie]

15. My guitars

I don't have any pets.

[TK421]

16. The Ramen noodles would be first out the door n/t

[XemaSab]

17. I would save the Baby, of course

[CreekDog]

18. my cat can ride on my back while i'm saving other stuff

he knows how to hold on! :D

[Shell Beau]

19. Just Bella and my husband. But I am hoping I could

pull out a miracle and swoop them all up at once!

[Left Is Write]

20. My children.

[Jamastiene]

21. Mu aunt.

That's it. I can buy new of everything else if need be. I'd hate to let my guitars go, but the living things in this house rely on me. So, I would have to save them first. Then, I'd go for the computer and the guitars.

[Inchworm]

22. Myself, Daughter, GF 'er Kids, any babies...

:hi:

[In_The_Wind]

23. Not one damn thing!

Miss Frodo & Lady Leigh are the first thing I would save cause the humans in my house can save themselves!

[zanne]

25. Nothing.

My husband could save himself. I'd grab the cats.

[LaurenG]

28. No things just the sentient beings.

All the two legged's can get themselves out, I'd grab the 2 cats and four dogs though.

edit: sorry zanne, I meant to post this to the OP - I was on the same page as you and just started typing without looking where I was. :7

[Kali]

26. any human beings (possible exceptions being dick cheney, et al)

after that it would depend on the situation - a house fire might be a tossup between them and the hard drive
a lot of really important "stuff" all in one location there
I can solve this by putting a back-up in some other place. Right now my back up copies are just a few feet away in a cupboard.

[Rhythm]

27. Any human (including Dick Cheney... though i'd hope he got singed more than a bit)

Then the critters...

[Chan790]

29. heh!

My roommate is now pissed off at me because I told her I'd save her cats, my book collection, then my laptop and if there was time, I'd come back for her.

She's an objectivist, I thought she'd understand. When it's people drowning in NO or TX from hurricane-flooding she says "Screw 'em, every gal for themselves!" but when it's her we're talking about suddenly we're supposed to care about other people's well-being.

(I'd actually save her first because I value life and she's capable of carrying the cats. I do love pointing out her hypocrisy to her...except that she sees nothing hypocritical in her worldview. It's perfectly rational and normal to blame victims. :eyes:)

[Ikonoklast]

31. Your roomate is an Objectivist?

You have far greater intestinal fortitude that I, good sir.

[Pharlo]

30. Nothing.

As long as The Damn Mutts are safe, the house and anything else in it is irrelevant.

[Upton]

32. My pugs come before anything

[Gormy Cuss]

33. My big screen TV, my iPod, my Lladro collectables, and my bellybutton lint. n/t

[Moondog]

34. My wife.

But hopefully I wouldn't have to choose.

[Mr Normal]

35. Pets are people too

First the people and the pets, then the photographs.

The rest can be replaced.
