how would you cope on the island?

[bunnydixon]

personally it would be a total truama for me - i hate beasties and i bet there is all sorts in that jungle. i hate having to pee outdoors in case something unwelcome crawls into where its not wanted lol!

the whispers, the others, smokie etc i could cope with but not the bugs!

[stargazer]

I like camping, so it wouldn't bother me to rough it. The strange smoke, all the other un-natural happenings..now, that might unsettle me a little. I would pray a lot.

[thelawgiver]

Piece of cake for Patchy. I've not only learned a lot of outdoor skills, but instructed on same, including wilderness survival. I guess that would make be the Locke of the island (minus the psychosis).

For a while the island might be great. I'd probably lose 20 unwanted pounds from all the beach walks, shell collecting, weaving palm fronds, rock gathering, fishing, and general survival needs.When I got lonely, I'd try to remember all the songs my sisters and I sang and I'd belt them out.I'd make a rescue sign like Bernard tried to do.I'd want to keep my spirits up so I .too, would pray and recite poems or scriptures I memorized as a kid.How to build a fire and get fresh water becomes prime!If alone, everything would be so much harder, I think.'d make a calendar to mark my time, also.

[stargazer]

I would miss my friends and family.

i guess i would spend a lotta time lurking around near you then lol!

i dont think i would make the week as i am nosey and curious and i would wander off and we all know how that goes.....

I would prefer to arrive on the island this session (S4) I like the comforts of home. But I would survive by talking to everyone, organsing a fire and toasting whatever could be found. I've never been for a swim in the sea, even though I've lived beside it all my life - it would take me a couple of days but I would eventually get in there taking a few with me. I'd be like Sun and planting a garden. I would want to help with the delivery of Aaron (cause I've done this already). Basically I would know everyone in detail before the first night and would have asked Jack if I could be his secretary - set up meetings and take notes.

[bunnydixon]

are you bens man on the boat?

[thelawgiver]

Yes, stick close to Patchy if you want to survive!!! The trick to staying warm at night is to keep those bodies close together!!

Amazing! You've delivered a baby? What an incredible experience! And it sounds like you would pretty much have it all together on the island while the rest of us would be floundering!

I love being outside.. I love camping, hanging out in the woods and on the beach.. I'm fine with bugs (except spiders!) and animals.. I love their set up on the beach with it's communal kitchen and everyone pitching in and their little huts.. I think I'd deal with all of that fairly well.. BUT, I'd rather have the choice whether to leave or stay.. The feeling of being trapped somewhere is something I don't think I could deal with well. Plus, I'd miss my family and friends and things like really good beer and music.

[bunnydixon]

see i dont mind spiders so much! and i think i would make myself a pretty good little shack too.

[bunnydixon]

oh and i am good at making things from bits of crap (not literally as that would be a weird hobby lol!)

[stargazer]

I could adapt, but I'm with you, Tuesday. Would want to know theres an out. Give me a month on the island and then let me decide if I want to leave.

[stargazer]

I'm creative like that too. Could make a nice little shack and make it a nice little home.

[NZlostie]

Stargazer - I would also be probably organising everyone as well - telling them where to go. anyone with long hair would have it plaited by me, no more have a bad hair day, even give me a pair of scizzors.

I grew up on the farm, not so good at hunting and not one to get my hands dirty but if I had to I can pluck birds, I'd rather cook it. I did riffle shooting at school and so have pretty good aim.

[ihateyourtheory]

During the day I would help with whatever work had to be done

At night, a campfire, some Dharma wine, my guitar and a pipe with some of the best buds the island has to offer. ;)

I just love getting round the fire, I do that most weekends. If anyone has a guitar I would be sitting beside you giving you a list a mile long of what song to play and sing!

Another thing I'd do, is go for long walks I can do 21.5km in 3hrs10mins (half marathon) don't ask me to run but walking is great

[Turnip Queen]

Oh I'm more like you Bunny - wouldn't like going to the toilet outside and not being able to go to the shop to buy something to eat, watching someone kill an animal for dinner would be horrible! And I'm a bad sleeper too so I'd be walking around all night in the heat.
The perks would be that I'd lose weight, AND then after the weight loss be able to cuddle up to the hot men on the island! Patchy is right - body warmth is essential! :D Love your new avatar too Patchy by the way!

[thelawgiver]

Thanks TQ. I'm glad you will keep me warm and toasty!

[Turnip Queen]

HAHAHA No better woman! :D

[bunnydixon]

yep a little skin to skin contact after some smores and a little wine (but not too much wine as i dont want to be peeing too much) by the campfire ;) :D

HAHA Yeah imagine on the first night on the island - I'd have been trying to hold it in for hours until I thought rescue was coming and would have been mortified having to go in public! And God knows who'd come up behind you!

[bunnydixon]

as long as its not a beastie......

[Batman]

i would probably be okay for a while but i really like living in or near a big city. i would not like to live on an island forever but for a certain period of time short of a year. i could do that.

[Turnip Queen]

God I know! I only just rewatched the Pilot episode - I love watching that, I always remember how awed I was when I saw it for the very first time!

If I was on the island i'd be with Claire most of the time. Not gonna lie. She would probably be pregnant again.

I'd probably be kickin back some beers with Sawyer too.

[bunnydixon]

and of course she will say yes - you ARE irresistable ;)

lol!

[UnknownPoster]

If I was stuck living in a tent on the island, and then suddenly we had a secure shelter with electricity, showers, laundry etc I would have a tough time coping with Locke letting it blow up. That would really be tough for me. 'All you had to do was enter the numbers,' I would say.

Other than that I would say Safely In Numbers and not run off into the jungle alone.

I think I would be a lot more worried about the other human beings on the island than the wildlife etc.

Imagine coming across one of those HUGE wild boars after dark!!:eek:

[UnknownPoster]

I wouldn't go into the jungle without some kind of weapon.

As I understand it, the boar will attack your achilles tendon rendering you unable to run and then what is next is not pretty. So watch your back if you see a boar.

haha I got more game than Jack. That is for sure. Everyone has more game than Jack. Even Hurley

I wouldent worry about having to compete with many of the guys on the island to be honest.

Except Sawyer

Sawyer's game is pretty tight. A true natural. However the whole I dont give a **** about everything badass approach takes way to long just for just an angry hook up.

Oh and when I talk about "game" looks has nothing to do with it. It is all about presence, sociablity, and ability to create a connection.

Haha for those that dident know, I am a dating coach in real life. So I find human interactions facininating. Could talk about the relations between characters all day haha

Maybe i'll make a thread that breaks down each characters "game" hahaha

[TSOL1]

I could've sworn we had this conversation before.

[bunnydixon]

probably tsol lol!
