Ridiculous moral dilemmas for serious procrastinators.

Nonsense . . . i already splained about my dilemma with the bugs . . .

two points

1. in regard to chocolate bunnies, if they're hollow i just break them into pieces and eat them in a completely random order, if solid i start at the ears

2. in regard to housework, who needs it, let it slide, if things get bad and people start to talk, simply let on that your conducting a very complex sociological experiment, the nature of which they wouldn't understand

Well Debbie, I too start with the ears, as for the house cleaning, next spring isn't that far away.

There is this one ridiculous ethical dilemma right in international relations textbook that I used to teach from. It infuriated me. Book is Contours of Power, page 293

Title is: Would You Kill This Baby?
And there is a photograph of baby Hitler. The premise is that you get transported in time right into his house when he was one year old or so. Everybody thinks the baby is adorable, but you know what will happen when he grows up. Millions will die. Would you kill him?
Authors claim that these and similar issues are raised in an attempt to apply moral standards to the formation and conduct of foreign policy.

Errr, how exactly? I HATE these dilemmas. There is plenty of real ones out there, it's only good for when smoking pot or avoiding housework. They should be in threads like this one, and not in textbooks! Grrrrrrr. OK, I already feel better.

Well now, the chocolate should give you enough sugar rush and energy
to start the house cleaning. Let the Gypsy Kings blast from the CD player,
put on your apron, and hit the dust mop.

Give your cousin the energizer bunny a run for his money.

Chocolate bunnies. Mmmmmmmmmmmm.

I bite off one foot, and then set it loose to fend for itself.




As for baby Hitler -- I'd try to steer him toward a career in accounting.

right, of course. logical solution. raise Hitler as an Austrian Buddhist. I shouldda thunk of that.

You just have to learn to think outside the polyhedron.
