Stranded for 1 week....

[blondie]

I find it disturbing that most of you are more concerned with luxuries than survival supplies.

well, its only a week. what more would you need besides food water and shelter?

ah, so you can go a week without brushing your teeth. cool.

[devilinside]

i find it disturbing that a lot of you don't brush your god damned teeth.

uugh I know!

And it being an island,I would assume the climate would be tropic,so no hypothermia. I just dont see it being THAT cold if it rained.  And a tooth brush isn't luxury,its oral hygiene. Granted its a week,but how would you ever live without teeth? And you could use a tooth brush for more thing's I'm sure,if youre crafty.

[lithium]

i'm not crafty =[

[devilinside]

Yeah you are,I have proof.

[lithium]

what proof, you got nothing on me!!

[devilinside]

how much you wanna bet??

[lithium]

ten dollars

[devilinside]

nah....bet more than that.....

[lithium]

AHA, I WIN

[devilinside]

no you dont

[Nailec]

wow i was about to answer this question thinkin i have to live there forever.

so i obviously dont need the collected works of Goethe

1 week is not that bad.

i guess i would workout the whole week.
an empty book and a pen would be nice.

I noticed that most people only put sleeping bag as their shelter.  And if it rains, you're fucked.  But seeing as how no details about the island were given, I would think that most people would want to be prepared for any environment or challenges.  Protection from local predators, extreme temperatures, local health threats ( IE Malaria , yellow fever, good call lithium for saying mosquito repellent) .  Measures to help themselves upon injury..............all kinds of shit can get you little buddy.

and yes kelly, you can still get hypothermia on a tropical island.  The body looses heat the fastest through evaporation.  So if it was raining, and windy your body would be losing heat very quickly through evaporation.  Plus if you had no sort of iso mat to sit on, your body would be losing heat to the cold wet ground.  If you were sick and had a fever, you would be losing more heat than usual.  If you were drinking (as some people brought alcohol) you would lose heat faster.  Any combination of those is enough to give you hypothermia. 

and yes blondie, I can go a week without brushing my teeth, and so can you.  Not that I like doing it.  But I mean very recently I went 3 months without showering.  the only time I brushed my teeth is when I knew I had enough bottled water to spare until the next re supply.  Its really not that bad.

[Fireal1222]

i was expecting variable to come in here and have a crazy list
like this.

1. duct tape. 2 rolls
2. dental floss.
3. box cutter ( could have got a knife but this oughta make it more fun )
4. 9 bottles of water. i'll live off that if its only a week. i'll save the extra 2 bottles for a pet i find on the island. hopefully a lobster named willbert
5. matches
6. pen and paper ( to mark the number of kills i make with the dental floss )

[Variable]
