- The Trolley Problem
The Trolley Problem is a fusion rifle introduced in The Dark Below
I can safely bet 98% of guardians do not know what it actually refers to
Is a thought experiment
There is a runaway trolley on railway tracks. There are 5 people on the tracks, that are tied-up and unable to move.
Meanwhile, YOU are close to a train yard. There is a lever near, which if pulled, will make the trolley go on a different track. However, on the other track there is a person you love on it.
A. Do nothing. 5 person are murdered, while your love interest lives
B. Pull the level. Your love interest is murdered, while 5 live to see another day
I would pull it
EDIT: Toaster caught me. See coment for explanation

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° ) You have been visited by fat Lenny like this post in 3 hours or 25 hours later a fat guy will fall on you and will not get up for 6 hours

-
Id do nothing, the love of my life is worth more than five randoms
-
Train is OP. Please nerf.
-
If there were one hundred thousand ppl it wouldn't matter. They would die before I sacrificed my wife.
-
Well can always find another person on tinder sooo....
-
It depends on which person, like I love my brother but wouldn't mind if he had an "accidental" death
-
Is Donald Trump one of the 5 ?
-
Walk away and get a milkshake
-
Kill 5 people. Don't know them? Don't care
-
Can I pull the lever halfway so the train derails?
-
Pull it halfway so it -blam!-s the train up
-
I'm confused - where am I supposed to aim my fusion rifle?
-
Well, I don't have hands, so I guess I do nothing.
-
Ahh, cool! I'd love to see a shrödinger's cat reference fun as well lol
-
There's a movie like this where a guy sacrifices his son to save a train full of people and starts to go crazy

Better to save 5 lives then only 1.
-
Titan skate to catch up with trolley. Shoulder charge trolley, watch ghost with 1000 yard stare until my friends get here.
-
Play Infamous and you realize it doesn't matter who you pick, your love interest still dies. She's just mad at you if you choose to save her over the 5 doctors. *in the event you go for her she is one of the 5 doctors because reasons*

Poor peter has no hands. Knock knock who's there it ain't Peter
-
Should be a lesson in reading comprehension or how not to write a story cuz it's full of holes.
-
Trolley lol
-
It was never love interest. I heard there were five people on the tracks and you could push a really fat person onto the tracks

Edited by simplycomplex90: 12/11/2015 10:16:56 PMIt never says your lover is tied up. So just tell them get up and mive and pull the lever.

If the only cost to save my loved one is to sacrifice five strangers, then that is what I would do.
