You're stranded on a deserted Island for 1 week...

[Saverem]

Typically the term 'Deserted Island' is used to indicated it is uninhabited by Humans. Animals and other livings things (such as the plants, natch) can and do still live there.

...That island is smaller than my house. What living things are they going to find there to need a gun to shoot? Crabs? Maybe some fish?

[Evil Midnight Bomber]

You can think what you want, but nothing he said here suggests that he planned to rape an imaginary Jessica Alba, on an imaginary deserted island, from an imaginary scenario.

Seriously, lol.

Nothing except that he's bringing a gun and that he has a working cellphone that he isn't planning on using to get them off of the island.

[Tiwack]

< Gun - to be safe from pirates???
< Phone - because somehow you have coverage???

Is your deserted island by any chance not deserted at all? Let alone an island??

[Donald Hellscream]

1. a book or something to help me not be bored to death
2. something to help me got those delicious bananas down
3. a sleeping bag or something so I don't have to lie in the sand.

Some girl I recently developed a crush on, if I am gonna be stranded on an island I'd love some company I am actually fond of.

[Zelk]

Knife, bandages and a pot for cooking
My brother would be good company and he goes camping so him I guess.

[Alvito]

You can get to know someone and have conversations in a week and plenty of deserted islands can pick up cell towers and satellite.

Pirates and I’m not talking Captain Jack Sparrow.

Then it isn't deserted now is it.

Can we please not turn a lighthearted thread into one about rape? Thanks.

[RobertoCarlos]

Can we please not make a lighthearted thread about rape? Thanks.

.............really?

the typical "what would you bring on a deserted island" is lighthearted rape? What a mess. Makes you worry when people like you are the blue mods

The OP didn't. It is some other posters who are suggesting it is.

That wasn't my intention to imply. I've edited my warning to be clearer.

I am asking that this thread, a lighthearted topic, not turn into a discussion about raping people. It's not an appropriate line of discussion.

[Queen of Hamsters]

Why bring a person you don't know? Is the assumption that they'd engage with you in a sexual manner or something? I guess I'll bring someone I know, or at least hope, would be acceptable company...

1. Toiler paper
2. A tablet fully stocked on show episodes and movies for evening/nights
3. A solar charger

Coyote Peterson. He'd probably bring a tent or 2 and conversation topics would always be easy to find during daytime.

That I agree with.

He means in recent replies some posters have implied posts with firearms, and lady companions are rapey. Not that the thread was about rape.

Everyone knows that a women alone on an island with you will put out in a day or 2 tops out of shear boredom.

Or that's what like, half the people in this thread seem to think.

[Blackspiral]

Realistic Situation I would use these Items:
A good knife. Going to want to cut open that fruit, make tools. Slice up things for shelter.

Hygiene/Toiletries - A couple backs of Baby Wipes can help clean things and you up if needed.

First Aid Kit - I'm a Klutz, I'll need this.

Person - Someone who teaches Survival Skills. Or at least knows something about it. Like Cody Lundin or something.

Unrealistic

Large Solar Panel with Hookups
Cell Phone with charge Cable
Pillow

Person - I'll break the Norm and say a happy puppy or dog. Sometimes dealing with a Dog is much easier then dealing with a Person.

Sleep in the shade of the Panel while waiting rescue and eating fruit. Playing some games to kill time. Vacation mode activate.

So the image used is the literal island in this hypothetical? That's inconsistent and a misdirection from the wrongness of your assertion.

A number of deserted islands house animals that can be used as food or might pose a danger. Google reveals rabbits, pigs, boars, sea turtles, seals, birds, rats, alligators, crocodiles, large lizards, snakes, spiders and monkeys of all kinds inhabit deserted islands from the Caribbean to the Pacific.

Not really. You and others appear to be thinking this scenario is grounded in reality. The very premise is fantasy. When engaging in fantasy I tend to give myself the best time possible. I don't sit in the corner, clean my gun and dare some hot chick to invade my safe place.

[RaoBurning]

1) A nice tent
2) A lighter
3) A good book. Can I bring more than one book? Does a "bag of books" count as 1 item?

And my one friend who could probably turn half-ripe bananas and coconuts into a goddamned culinary Mona Lisa.

Easy peasy.

[Doctor Funkenstein]

I imagine starvation is too.

It's a well known fact that humans cannot easily survive a week without food. True story, yo. True story.

[Antbregante]

I'd bring my Nintendo Switch, a tent and toilet paper. As for company I'd want someone interesting. I think Bruce Campbell would be cool to have around.
