"A runaway trolley car is hurtling down a track. In its path are five people who will definitely be killed unless you, a bystander, flip a switch which will divert it on to another track, where it will kill one person. Should you flip the switch?"
What Would You Do?
I admit. I would flip the switch. But the other dilemmas presented are a bit more complex. Would I blow up the fat man? Er... I guess I would. But I would not push him in front of the trolley car. I guess there's a lesson in all this. Don't be a fat person, and stay the hell away from trolleys.

Say it with me... Hippo Crite
Or maybe it's just a case of pandering.

Given the state of my apartment, I need to get myself one of these.
