Cannibalism

[Dupeo]

I imagine the situation would go down with him and me sitting at opposite ends of the dark room, staring coldly at one another. Both of us would be waiting for the other to nod off so we could get a belt around their neck. If I win the "stay awake the longest game" then I would eat him. If not, he'd eat me.

 

[Zand88]

Most everyone saying 'no' would just succumb to it from severe hunger, eventually. Most of those who cannibalize aren't immoral or evil, and would probably deny they would ever do it before hand. Instincts always beat out rationale. Adapt or die!

 

[NotAPie]

He'd have to die first.
Then I would eat him.

do i have a way to cook said person? like a lighter and some kind of fuel for some kind of fire?
if yes, I probably would... how bad is the storm? like a tornado, or just plain old rain? if it's rain I'd say 'screw this' and leave the shelter,it's not like I'm made of sugar, i won't melt.

would there be a penalty if I did? like prison etc? if no, then let's dig in

is he nice/ an asshole?
so many variables, so little time...

the long and the short if it is, it depends. if it meant my own survival, yes.

 

[SimpleChimp]

Yeah. only after i ate my boots
his boots, and the store of potatoes we kept in the basement.

Or until i got sick of potatoes. :^P

 

[Nannernade]

As long as I find a way to cook him, and there is some kind of seasoning nearby I'd probably do it. And a sink to clean him first. >_>

Cannabalism solves the world hunger problem AND the overpopulation problem at once, so it's all good anyway, but this scenario is a braindead yes. It's for your own survival, so assuming he doesn't eat you first, aside from a double suicide, it's GOING to happen.

 

[Cuddly Knife]

I would eat someone, if they had already died. I would not kill a person to live unless they were trying to do the same.

 

[ShadowKatt]

I have no problem killing someone or eating them. I have no ethical qualms over killing another human and meat is meat.

 

[ZeroMachine]

If there's a storm strong enough to keep you in your house that's lasted a month, chances are it's the apocolypse. So, it all depends:

Are we talking Fallout-type world after or just plain ol' end of it all?

EDIT:

I have no problem killing someone or eating them. I have no ethical qualms over killing another human and meat is meat.

You know, whenever I see people say this (and I mean everyone, this is no personal attack on you, ShadowKatt) I have to call bullshit. There are plenty of people that think they have no qualms about killing a human, but if the situation ever came up, 99% of those people will freak out (10% will shit their pants). Only a miniscule amount of people have absolutely no problem with it, and most of them end up in jail or mental hospitals, or some mix of the two.

 

[Easykill]

I mostly got over my fear of Cannibalism, but reading this thread still makes me feel distinctly unpleasant. No.

 

[MikeOfThunder]

You can't really answer that question until your stuck with that as your only option. As for me, i'm sure i wouldn't but hey... who knows! Maybe if i'm desperate enough i would be willing to kill and eat someone!! I'm just not sure!

 

[BeighT]

No, survival is not that important

For sure this.

 

[Blackadder51]

I couldn't, it would be to weird

 

[SomeUnregPunk]

i would actually think this first...
"If I bundle up, I might be able to get to another house in this neighborhood and that house might have more food or clothes!"

becoming a canny probably wouldn't pop up first in my mind.

 

[Manbro]

Only if things got really desperate and I thought they were going to eat me.

 

[ScarlettRage]

Question: Why does this person have to be male?
OT: I'd sleep until the storm is over. Waste no energy and no one dies.

yay good i like this idea!
*gives high 5*

i would do this

 

[somekindarobot]

If he died before me, and there was absolutely no other forms of sustenance around, then I would probably eat him. Trying to kill someone who isn't trying to kill you or others, which morally means he has given up his right to life, is just wrong. What makes my life more important than his?
