If you had to get rid of one of the following in order to save the other two, which would it be?

- Dog

- Wife

- Bike

To me it's a no-brainer - it's been nice knowin' ya' honey!

At the risk of being banned, lol, tebh answer seems obvious to me too. Right now I have the BEST DOG EVER! So he stays, and getting rid of the wife would probably cost me the other two anyway. lol. So, I vote for the dog and the wife. And Hell, I can always ride HER bike!!

DOG!!!!!!

God put man above all animals, and I don't really care
for any of them.
If you don't want to keep your wife maybe you should
have had your head out of your a** and thought a little
more prior to stepping off the deep end.

Just my 2 cents , and , I DON'T CARE what ya'll may think
of what I have said.

I'd get rid of a bike. Don't ride the old Schwinn much anyways.

lets think about this logically.

a dog will love you forever and unconditionally so long as you feed it and rub its belly.

as for the bike and the wife...i dont care WHAT you do to your bike...a wife is gonna cost you more money over the course of a marriage.

and even with all this money invested...she STILL says no from time to time to a roll in the sheets.

pack your bags baby. no. better yet i'll pack them for you.

You OBVIOUSLY do care what people think or you wouldn't have posted such an opinionated and provocative response. You started by stating your belief that your God appointed man to be above animals, which by the way should carry an inherent responsibility to be their caretaker, but yet you don't care for any of them. Hmmm, are you a polyester wearing vegetarian? Didn't think so. Next you implied that the OP had his head up his a$$ and stepped off the deep end. I love how you closed by emphasizing how much you DON'T CARE.

Here's my two cents...step away from the pulpit, hop on that beautiful bike of yours and go for a nice long ride. Preferably where the roads are a little twistier that Colorado City, Texas. This thread was supposed to be an attempt at humor.

Let's see how riled up you are now!

This $hit always cracks me up....yes you do care or you wouldn't have bothered to write it. Think about it.

Hmmmm...I wonder if the OP wasn't just screwing around and having some fun with that question

In over 37 years I've ridden several bikes for many thousands of miles. 25,000 on my 07. But I've only ridden one wife in all that time so I'd get rid of the bike and keep the woman that I decided on many years ago. Don't have a dog so can't get rid of one. I could always come up with another bike in time.
