Imagine yourself driving along on a wild stormy night. You pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for the bus:

1. An old lady who is about to die.

2. An old friend who once saved your life.

3. The perfect man (or) woman you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose, knowing that there could only be one passenger in your car. This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application. You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first; or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life,
and this would be the perfect chance to pay him back. However; you may never be able to find your perfect dream lover again.

Answers could vary depending on the personality. However; there is a perfect answer. If you are a person who would think "out of the box" you would answer: "I would give the car keys to my old friend and let him take the old lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the woman (or man if you are a woman) of my dreams."

В одной симпатичной американской молодежной комедии конца 80-х под названием "После тусовки" (The Night Before) с совсем молодым Кеану Ривзом в главной роли, есть такая сцена. Героиня, юная девушка из приличной семьи, случайно оказывается в баре - типичном штатовском "злачном месте" с соответствующими атрибутами и атмосферой - и там к ней подваливает один из типичных посетителей таких заведений: здоровенный мужичина с трехдневной щетинОй, при приближении которого еще на расстоянии нескольких метров можно уверенно сказать, какие напитки он употреблял. Понимая, чем это может быть чревато, героиня играет на опережение и прежде чем тот успевает открыть рот, говорит:

Before you say or do something, remember that I'm a minor.

Однако мужика это веское заявление нисколько не смущает и он в ответ на него изрекает следующее:

That's OK! My first wife was a truck driver. She's dead now.

One day, a girl, 16yrs old, heard from her mother that if she does a regular prayer for 4 yrs, a divine "Angel" would come to her in her dreams & give her 3 boons. So she decided to do it. She completed 4 years successfully, doing prayer regularly.

Now it was a day for "Angel" to come. So she slept earlier with thoughts in her mind to ask. And, really an "Angel" comes in her dreams. Now this is the dialogue between them.

Angel: O Girl, you prayed to me regularly within last 4 yrs, so I am very very happy with you. I will complete any of your 3 wishes. You can ask anything you like, but there is one condition.

Girl: Condition!, what is that?

Angel: You have a boy-friend?

Girl: Yes.
