@jqubed shes three years younger than me. It would have been wrong for me to date her while I was a senior and she was a freshman. Desert island is my last chance.
@Marion14505 No need to apologize, I am one myself. It was just pretty skeevy when I thought about it, the guys who were 18 dating girls who were 14-turning-15 and almost certainly sleeping with them. I don't think anyone would think twice about 28 and 24, but 18 and 14 is a little different.
@jqubed that is a good point. I selected smartphone but I probably would have a better chance with a laptop. A laptop I can e-mail for help. A cell phone, I might be stuck with a t-mobile plan and be stranded forever.
@elimanningface I was thinking if I want to be rescued phones and tablets typically have GPS receivers but I don't think they're as common in laptops. On the other hand, if we're wanting to stay laptops have bigger screens which will make our video streaming experience better.
Freezer. I may have good days and bad days with fishing. It could be one of those closed cycle units that runs on heat... what're they called ... Absorption refrigerator! The Einstein-Szilard model.
If you're stranded on this desert island, it makes more sense to have the magic 3D printer so you can print yourself a boat.
@melwin Print yourself a boat? Thinking small. Print yourself a helisubmarinecopter!
@brhfl I don't know how to fly one of those things. A boat is simple, but effective. Maybe I could print out a helisubmarinecopter pilot too?
@melwin
@nadroj
How about a VHF with DSC to call coast guard or nearby ships or an EPIRB
Darn logical this is meh ok how about something like a blender for tropical fruit smoothies
@CaptAmehrican I actually wouldn't want to leave the island so a blender and fridge and beer making supplies would be great.
Carmen Electra. Wifi optional.
@Marion14505 Just to clarify on behalf of the OP - I think this is a question for your 2016 self, not your 2001 self.
@DigMe She went to my high school. My 2016 self knows more what to do with her than my 2001 self would have.
@Marion14505 So you had your chance in high school but blew it? (Also, wasn't she long done with high school by 2001?)
@jqubed shes three years younger than me. It would have been wrong for me to date her while I was a senior and she was a freshman. Desert island is my last chance.
@Marion14505 You shoulda told that to some of the guys I was in high school with.
@jqubed boys suck. I apologize on behalf of them all.
@Marion14505 No need to apologize, I am one myself. It was just pretty skeevy when I thought about it, the guys who were 18 dating girls who were 14-turning-15 and almost certainly sleeping with them. I don't think anyone would think twice about 28 and 24, but 18 and 14 is a little different.
I read it as "what's your dessert island device," so this is my choice:
@heartny If it's dessert island, I'm definitely going with Carmen Electra.
"helicopter" or "submarine" or "magic 3D printer"
Congratulations canuk!
I'll go with laptop since you comedians probably won't give me a desk.
What's our goal here? Are we trying to get rescued or are we quite happy to be away from everyone else, thank you very much?
@jqubed Carmen. Electra.
@jqubed You shouldn't let some random strangers on the Internet dictate your life goals.
@jqubed that is a good point. I selected smartphone but I probably would have a better chance with a laptop. A laptop I can e-mail for help. A cell phone, I might be stuck with a t-mobile plan and be stranded forever.
@elimanningface They said you have wifi though. Also T-Mobile isn't that bad... :P
@elimanningface I was thinking if I want to be rescued phones and tablets typically have GPS receivers but I don't think they're as common in laptops. On the other hand, if we're wanting to stay laptops have bigger screens which will make our video streaming experience better.
A lie detector.
@nadroj The Professor didn't have electricity or wifi...
TARDIS
Freezer. I may have good days and bad days with fishing. It could be one of those closed cycle units that runs on heat... what're they called ...
Absorption refrigerator! The Einstein-Szilard model.
Beer counts as a device, right?
@Al_Coholic Does whisky count as beer?
@bluebeatpete Sure. I actually considered saying that instead of beer.
Headphones or a speaker dock
I would say Rhodå, my living doll.
A MacBook Pro. If it's good enough for Kim Jong Un, it's good enough for me!
a pancakebot, obviously. then I can just print myself a boat. and then eat it!
Top of the line Oculus Rift and one of those high end female sex dolls. Which I would name Wilson just for posterity.
ಠ_ಠ
Island with Internet and electricity? Just any recent vintage laptop which lets me use Ebay, and a credit card.
Fleshlight?
Hitachi Magic Wand.
A 3D printer to print a surfboard to ride the gravitational waves back and forth to wherever I want to be.
