not what you thought.

[pamileez]

How can i get the 'Full Story' that this post refers to? Its not on the main page all these months later?

[joyjoybelles]

you look nice in blue jess

[keydemographic]

My list is the same for all the same reasons we should be friends.

[Shhambolic]

I remember doing something like this before but I can't remember what it said about me. They all do good things and they all do bad things so it depends on your morals and which are more acceptable in your opinion.

I chose the same order, I also had the same result from the personality test not long ago. Weirrdd

*high fives* :)

[XanxiuZ]

I'm a little afraid that my picks will reveal that I'm a sociopath, but, whatever.

1) Sluggo - I know, odd choice, right? But, of all the characters, he was the the true friend to Abigail.

2) Abigail - She was in love and just wanted to get to the other side. Love makes you do crazy shit.

3) Sinbad - Predatory bastard. But, at least he kept his word.

4) Ivan - If Ivan was Abigail's friend, he should've helped her.

5) Gregory - Bastard should've built a bridge to get to his woman.

[LGBTeens]

have fun in CT!

[cornstarch27]

Ivan- he didn't get involved, smart.

Sinbad- he offered to take her across for a price, she didn't have to pay it. he's a bit of an opportunist, but maybe he was lonely. anyways, he probably assumed she'd say no and he was just kidding.

Gregory- cmon she just came all the way across the river and you won't give her a second chance?

Sluggo- he beat the crap out of gregory. wanted abigail for himself.

Abigail- dramatic little bitch. things don't go her way, she takes the easy way out.

[TheEpochOfDecline]

1. Sinbad (Yes, he was a dick. But a reliable dick.)

2. Ivan (Sometimes it's best to leave things be)

3. Sluggo (For lack of anywhere else to put this guy)

4. Abigail (Why go through the trouble if he wasn't putting in equal effort?)

5. Greggory (The douchebag should have crossed the river for her)

[Tree1Hugger115]

You made notes for today LOL

Seriously, Jess xD ??!? LMAO you have notes or list everytime xD

Have fun in Connecticut!! =)

[montoxic13]

coleslaw

brownbread

turkey

mashed poo poo ta ta toe

n some mo beer shut up

[STLinMIND]

i think the lack of details lets it to go any way depending on how you think about it

i thought:

1. sinbad

2. greggory

3. abigail

4.ivan

5. sluggo

[twinklewonderkid91]

OMG! If you can't do next Monday you should get Lu to do it :D

1. Ivan

2. Sluggo

3. Gregory

4. Sinbad

5. Abigail

[karelle78]

1. Sinbad - kept his word. maybe his price was too steep, but she didn't have to pay it if she didn't want to.

2. Gregory - his lover was unfaithful which sucks, but i think he should have given her another chance, given her motive.

3. Ivan - stayed out of it, but let his friend down

4. Sluggo - violence is never ok

5. Abigail - cheated on her man, and then laughed at his pain. Did she ever even love him??

[EBakesify]

Happy turkey day!!

[JustForTheDead]

I think Abigail is

the true victim. Abigail was taken advantage of by a shrewd businessman and

forced to pay a price that others would not have to pay. All her friends either

ignore or misunderstand her, and her one true love has forsaken her. Abigail

never suggested that Slug attack Gregory, and she had nothing to do with the

alleged crime.

[Raven051]

where will you be in connecticut?

[welldone1877]

BUT it was IVANS fault!! if hed just taken her across everything would of been fine, hes not nice. Look at all the trouble he caused.

but I agree Abigail should of just made her own boat. shes my next least favorite

followed by the guy that beat the other guy. and the tool that wanted sex.

My first is the girls bloke, she corrupted her morals so hes entitled to change his views on her.

[weskate93]

1. Abigail - She did it because she had to if you think about it. If you think about it, in these times, women weren't like men. She would have had to be married off to SOMEONE even if she didn't love them.

2. Ivan: stayed safe

3. Sinbad: Took what he wanted and got it. He took advantage of her but how was he to know.

4. Sluggo: Should'a stayed out of it.

5. Gregory: He gets angry at her for something that would not have been asked of him if he could have crossed the river for her. Pride. Hm

[halfbro]

1.Gregory (most likeable)

2.Ivan

3.Sluggo

4.Abigail

5.Sinbad (least likeable)

[Crystalangles]

i chose the ones the exact opposite of what you chose.

[overainbows]

1- Ivan (he stayed out of it. Wisely, because it turned out to be a drama and he had nothing to do with it.)

2- Sinbad (he was true to his word and there's nothing wrong with his 'price'. He didn't force her into it)

3- Gregory (Although he doesn't show interest in the girl-at least we don't know-, what could he do anyway? She slept with another guy for a stupid reason)

4-Sluggo (he had nothing to do with it and beating ppl is not acceptable!)

5- Abgail (frivolous, impulsive)

[YOitsNat]

i rated them exactly like you did.

[YOitsNat]

I rated them exactly like you did

[fruitgrrl]

holy crap, i had no idea it was the 90's already!

[lindseyclark08]

I had Abigail as most likeable and Gregory as the least likeable. Everything else was basically the same as yours. I liked Abigail because she sacrificed so much for Gregory, and look what he did to her.

[stake0utt]

we did this a couple of weeks ago in my university global issues class!

[NotSoClassyBroad]

yay! it's not likely im gonna see you two but it's cool, you'll be in my state!

[bphoru]

have fun

[1Vella]

Abigail is the by far the most likable. She sleeps with someone else, even though she doesn't want to, just to be with the person she loves. When she gets dumped after that and he gets killed, who can blame her for laughing?

Sinbad, well tit for tat I guess.

Sluggo, violent guy, but he was protecting his new girl i guess.

Ivan., horrible, a friends in danger and he couldn't care less!

Gregory is an ass-hole. She goes through all that just to be with him and he dumps her! Excessive pride

[nubecitaboyi]

There is no correct answer, I did it for a job interview here in Spai. But the one I did had a killer and that the reason why she couldnt cross the bridge. And the end ther is no beating.

[firstandlastvid]

1. sluggo, at least he shows some compassion (but little bit too much of it)

2. gregory (hurt, but lazy for not crossing the river himself or not forgiving a mistake)

3. ivan (wise, but lazy)

4.abigail (doesnt give up, but is laughing at greg in the end!)

5. sinbad (anti-gentleman!)

[AnssiArpiainen]

my list was pretty much the opposite of yours but then again your points about Abigail were pretty good stuff and maybe that way she would drop one place down on my list but still pretty weird how our thoughts about it were so differend

[pete275]

hahaha, it's the 90s! I love that

[lucyisabanana]

why didnt gregory try to cross the river for his woman?! what a lazy bitch!!

[noletru]

its all what would you do...hahah that just made me thing of nickalodean...if anyone was around for that lol

[iheartyou4ever115]

how come greg didnt try to close the river???

[karamei]

1. Sluggo. Abigail should have asked for his help first instead of Ivan, imo. I think standing up for someone is commendable, though not to such an extreme.

2. Abigail. While this is unrealistic, sometimes love does make people do crazy things. Though she was pretty dumb.

3. Ivan. Useless person imo. Sometimes people worry too much about avoiding "drama" and don't worry enough about their friends.

4. Sinbad. Total creep for putting a girl in that position.

5. Gregory. Show some sympathy.

[karamei]

Actually I think I'm gonna say Ivan was my #5 instead.

[imagurlinlove]

Let's assume that the man-eating crocodiles in the river were exactly that, MAN-eaters, shes a woman, just swim.

[ziimmermann]

Gregory - he was upset that his girl gave herself away to someone else. Sluggo - he cared about Abigail, even though it drove him to aggression.

Ivan - i don't find his indifference heroic or likable. he just plays the good guy because he didn't do anything wrong.

Abigail - she was naive and desperate but she also proved to be hateful and vindictive.

Sinbad- he saw a vulnerable woman, and used her for his own gain. and the fact that he kept his promise doesn't redeem it.

[MaeGal]

Ahh, too hard. I shall do it later. Perhaps when I am less tired and have tons of homework.

Great video and responses, Jess.

[XxcameronholdenxX]

you sound cute when you're sick! :)

[Grimace]

Wow this is the first time in forever that yall have showed up in my subscription box, yeah so great to see the channel again

[RainieBrit]

1. Sinbad. He's a businessman doing his business, and he's completely honest and keeps his promise.

2. Sluggo. Violence should not be the first answer, but his heart was in the right place to want to help his grieving friend.

3. Ivan. He didn't do anything. If a friend asks for help, you help any way you can.

4. Gregory. Has he ever heard of forgiveness? We all make mistakes.

5. Abigail. If she can be so cruel as to laugh at him in the end, then she didn't love him in the first place.

[KaelybChase]

1. Ivan (he did nothing wrong)

2. Gregory (he knows what he wants)

3. Sluggo (protected abigail)

4. Abigail (feels no compassion at the end)

5. Sinbad (I dont like what he asked for in return of helping her.)

[kronicallyindecisive]

1. Ivan

2. Gregory

3.Sinbad

4. Sluggo

5. Abigail

[aruck7]

my ratings are

sluggo,gregory abagail,ivan ,sinbad

[viciousandchaotic]

i dont think i would be able to put them in an order. dont really like any of them

[alwaysSHOUTalways]

1. ivan

2. sinbad

3. gregory

4. sluggo

5. abigail

[jjbeejjuice]

1. Ivan: he probably had his own ish to deal with

2.Sinbad: business is business lol and he's like a Pirate (I love Pirates)

3. Gregory: WTFruit?! why didn't he find a way to get across.. what MAN doesn't have riverboat friends.. especially when living by the river.

4. Sluggo: he's just violent :( no bueno

5. Abigail: what a whore!

[jsweet83]

thanks for giving us homework jess

[sonjunkie]

"you're cute, you listen to me." lol aw

[Numfarh]

Ooh. It was tough, but I narrowed it down.

1. Sinbad - He kept his promise.

2. Sluggo - He did what he thought was best for his friend.

3. Ivan - He was completely apathetic. We do not know if he could have helped in any way.

4. Abigail - Her (attempted) manipulation of various characters is really reprehensible and her thirst for revenge is disturbing.

5. Gregory - He isn't willing to forgive a mistake.

[Numfarh]

Interestingly, looking back over my answers, it becomes pretty clear that I value loyalty over any other trait. Clearly, I ranked the person who was truthful at the top and the spiteful at the bottom.

[TheNBetween]

1. Ivan

2. Gregory

3. Sluggo

4. Abigail

5. Sinbad

[razotan]

Ivan-wise to stay out of it all

Sinbad-because i dislike the below 3more...

Abagail-could there really be no other options?

Gregory-why didn't he try to cross the river?

Sluggo- jealous, proud to think he is any better than Gregory

[tegansararock007]

NOOO! there's no Jess next Monday? :(  Now what am i gonna do with my life?!!!!?!?!?!?!?

[pennygoo]

oh we did this in my class! wow cool.

[abeautifulfuture]

We did this in my health class when I was in ninth grade but only Gregory was going to drownd if Abigail didn't get across the river to save him. So it was hard to feel like abigail was a bad person. But with this version I guess ya she does seem a bit strange to accept using that type of payment.

[maggietherainbow]

1- Ivan

2 - Sinbad

3- Sluggo

4 - Abigail

5 - Gregory.

[OMGomgOMGuGuys]

What I did find interesting was that most of the responses I've seen dont seem to agree with this. Nice job in thinking for yourself.

[OMGomgOMGuGuys]

What bothers me is that this isnt a very valid test, the names are culturally misleading.

Gregory and Abigail and quintessential goody-two-shoes white names.

Ivan is culturally neutral, mostly though it can be taken as Russian or something

Sinbad is obviously has a direct negative correlation because his name litterally is sin... bad

Sluggo also has a direct correlation with aggression.. slug as in sluging someone

[LJOrly23]

5 Abigail

4 Sluggo

3 Gregory

2 Sinbad

1 Ivan

[Nightmareater]

1 - Ivan

2 - Sinbad: He asked to see if the gum sticked and it did

3 - Sluggo: So so.. maybe he was Abigails best friend

4 - Greggory: I just hated the guy

5 - Abigail: Selfish, and stupid, she didn't even ask him if he wanted her to come, I hate pushy and people who never look for another way and she laughed at the half dead guy

[losr18]

haha, mary b. all excited is super adorable

you guys are so cuuuute!

have fun in connecticut =)

[amystriker]

1. Gregory

[xaznhottiesx]

which city in CT are you staying at??

[jeremy1350]

I had this same story told to us in my Applied Human Sciences class last term. There are a number of these scenarios we looked at.

Jeremy

[lunarmicrobe]

1-sinbad, he probably hasnt gotten laid in months at sea, and he didnt force her to do anything.

2-Greg, no one wants to hear that news, and he might have gotten over it in time.

3-ivan, he didnt do anything awful, but i dont like that a friend came to him in trouble and he just said go away.

4-sluggo, jerk, shes not going to love you for being aggressive.

5-abigail, lame, shouldnt hold grudges, shouldnt be violent, shouldnt be surprised at greg's reaction. should have given him time.

[900angryangel]

4. Sinbad (Asking someone in need of help for sexual favours is just nasty, but he did follow through with his promise.)

5. Gregory (Justifiably upset, but did he make much of an effort to help Abigail across the aligator lake, or even go to the other side himself? No. He left his lover to brave man-eating alligators on her own. What a douche. And then when she made an effort, and prostituted herself just to see him, what did he do? Rejected her, after all she had been though. .)

[Minireb123]

yeah that's why I didn't like Gregory either

[900angryangel]

1. Sluggo (I think it was a misguided attempt at doing the right thing. Some people have been taught that violence is the answer, and that's not their fault.Good intentions, loyal friend.)

2. Ivan (Minds his own business, good for him, although could have been a bit more loyal.)

3. Abigail (Her intentions were initially pure, and who can blame her for being bitter after having to rent out her body just to see this one guy who then rejects her. Love fucks you up.)

[yellowbeamoflight]

5-abigail

4-sinbad

3-sluggo

2-gregory

1-ivan

[yellowbeamoflight]

I picked this order totally not the same way you picked it. I did the worst to the best b/c i don't care about any of them. Haha. equally dislike? lol.

[AmandaWiddifield]

aha yes! "build yourself a boat!"

i agree with those ratings-- and OH! someone fill-in... kinda depressing :S

[qbambina06]

1- sluggo 2-gregory 3-abigail 4-ivan 5-sinbad

[caramara888]

i chose 1- ivan 2-gregory for the same reasons as you

then 3-sluggo because i thought he had goodish intentions

4- abigail bc she was kinda evil but she had also lost the love of her life

5- sinbad because he was a sleezbag and used abigails desperation against her

haha i had to do it before i watched the video bc you can be so convincing sometimes

[blahhchristi]

1.Ivan 2.Gregory 3. Abigail 4. Sluggo 5.Sinbad

[sWeEtSkItTlez]

I chose: 1. Gregory 2. Ivan 3. Sluggo 4. Sinbad 5. Abigail

[SkibbledInk]

you look like a 12 year old boy

and its absolutely adorable

[xRainbow90x]

Part 2.

Everyone in my class had a different order. When we were discussing it in class a light bulb in my brain went off and I was like hmm.... I wonder what the beavers answer would be. By the way where in CT will you be cause I am in CT and would lovee to meet you.

[xRainbow90x]

Part 1.

I wrote in the question and sooo happy its being answered. We did this in my first year seminar class to talk about values and how everyone values difference things. I dont know if there is a meaning to it but maybe when you see the other videos you will understand more... My order went Ivan, Abigail, Sinbad, Sluggo, Gregory.

[faeriebutch]

you know at first I ranked the characters in the same order as you but then I got to thinking, why didn't Gregory try to get across the river to see Abigail? It's interesting....

[positivelynikki]

yeah ct!

you guys are comin onto my turf next week =P

[123MikeyGo]

you guys are too cute :]

I was having a horrible monday...

until saw your bright smiling faces!

Shoot, again? feel better soon jess!

[OMGitsaBLAST]

i love mary. i'd take her from you but that'd be mean

[pauldonald]

@OMGitsaBLAST well at least you know that would be mean otherwise jess would be in big trouble lol
