What 3 things would you save in a fire

[SimpleAssassin]

If your house was burning down what would you risk your life to save.

 

[StardogChampion]

My two guitars, laptop and my desktop tower if I could manage.

 

[Slug Advisor]

1. Internet
2. ?????
3. PROFIT!

 

[Dalamari]

Two guitars and my amp

 

[xcellerate]

Well my house actually burned down in 2003 and I lost everything except my bicycle because I was out riding it at the time

BUT, in my dorm in highschool, at like 1:30 in the morning one of the guys came screaming down the hall, "THE BASEMENT'S ON FIRE!! EVERYBODY GET OUT!!!!" So people were grabbing their guitars and laptops, shoes, and all kinds of shit before they ran outside....where they met our dorm head laughing at them.

To answer you question though, I'd grab my desktop, or at least rip out the hard drives, my camera bag, and my ps3...my bike is already outside.

child prostitutes?

Edit
That was low i'm sorry

 

[ajski752]

The trend seems to be computers

Id have to say i would grab my saxophone
my media hard drive with all the family photos and junk on it....
I would definitely leave my laptop, cause its a piece of junk
then i would probably start trowing all of my random stuff out my window.. but thats besides the point
last thing i would bring would be my collection of records

1.Face
2.Palm

 

[Shakermaker]

My cats.

 

[SimpleAssassin]

Yeah i thought technology would be the most popular. Nice to see people value tech over family members. Or do you people live on your own?

^ definitely this

i deserve it. this might be a stupid question but what did you actually mean by CP?

 

[Yorick]

Cat, Guitar, Computer

I figured Family was a given. The topic is what three "things". I don't consider my family to be objects. Cat isn't either but obvs can't figure a way out by herself.

 

[PriNcE oF SpAcE]

1: cat

2: drawings/paintings

3:computer/external drive

 

[SimpleAssassin]

true, i was only kidding. Post objects or pets

how many people have frickin cats? its awesome. Names please

 

[ajski752]

kinda sad people value technologies over family, but i guess if they are living alone...
either way... its very materialistic, just like the world, or a very large amount of it has become

 

[jondy]

Saxophone, flute, USB stick with dissertation on.

My computer could use a good firey purge anyhow, heh

 

[CrazyHarij]

besides my xbox and my external harddrive (with my music files), my valuables are in a different location from where i live

 

[SimpleAssassin]

yeah but like Yorick said your first reaction probably wouldn't be your family when you think of things. It certainly wasn't my intention to reveal the fact we would save tech over those we love, i was expecting objects

 

[Warped]

wallet w/check book and bonds (all in the same area)
PC w/ external HDD
PS3

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Nothing worth going in for.

 

[Emporius]

One would assume that Family members are already safe/not included, or else this would be a very boring thread.

Song book
Guitar
Computer tower.

I'd like to grab photo albums, but I'm not sure I'd have the time.

 

[SimpleAssassin]

^ exactly

 

[Polaris]

My journal
Hard-drive
and my Bag of secrets™

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

I would save my:

• Oxygen
• House
• Life

 

[ajski752]

I would save my:

• House
  

Exactly what my first reaction would be

 

[Hectic Glenn]

Cat, laptop & shoebox with pictures & nice stuff in. This computer tower I game on is massive and weighs as much as a small hippo, so the laptop would get preference.

I'd probably be playing some TF2 waiting for the firefighters to put it out (until the fire reaches the router).

 

[SimpleAssassin]

nice to see people would save their pets. I know that life would be a lot more boring without my two cats Gizmo and Casper

My Iguana is like my child.
I'd probably fight to the death to protect him.
Sadly, instead of moving out on his own when he gets 18 or 21ish, he will die from old age. ;(
But I guess it's the same difference.

Wow I'm bored, ok I guess I better get back to work.

 

[mocho loco]

My life and my family.

 

[Baal]

2 Laptops
Desktop PC
Three 3-ring binders with receipts / financial information / misc documents

I'd grab my wallet/phone but they'd probably be in my pockets anyway

As a side note, there was a huge fire on the outskirts on my city late last week. Here is what it looked like from the opposite side of the city that the fire was on:

I work in the big building on the far left (it looks like two buildings). I had quite a good view of it earlier that day.

 

[Vegeta897]

Shouldn't the thread title be "save from a fire"?

 

[Baal]

Shouldn't the thread title be "save from a fire"?

Alternatively, it could be read as "what would you save if you were in a fire?"

 

[bbson john]

1.Guitar
2.PC
3.My own ass

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

Shouldn't the thread title be "save from a fire"?

Shouldn't you be polishing your chin? :arms:

 

[Jintor]

I'd take out the fire.

 

[Rizzo]

Probably nothing since i was the one who set the fire.

I like things that burn.

 

[VirusType2]

Shouldn't you be polishing your chin? :arms:

come on, you know you want to touch it.

 

[mortiz-Redux]

1. My penis.
2. My testicals.
3. My ass.

^ George Washington would be proud

The Burning of Washington took place in August 1814, during the continental North-American War of 1812 between the British Empire and the United States of America. British forces occupied Washington, D.C. and set fire to many public buildings. The facilities of the U.S. government, including the White House, were largely destroyed

Of the many spoils taken from the White House when it was ransacked by British troops, only two have been recovered — a painting of George Washington, rescued by then-first lady Dolley Madison, and a jewelry box returned to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1939
