Well, yeah. Just put the snail in a terrarium. Pay someone else to put it in there, too.

mechanicvirus · 10-17-2023, 12:25 PM

Nope, it's an impossible riddle meant to catch people with "i need it now" attitudes who think they can outsmart something for a certain $$$ but the riddle has claims of supernatural and metaphysical attributes that make it impossible to achieve.

Just buy a house in Florida and one in Cali, or two places far away, then calculate a snail's speed and just move once in a while. Or trap the snail without touching or killing it. It's not hard or an impossible riddle..

I heard this riddle is actually less impossible than paying people who are owed money.

You know that no one likes you and are really making fun of you behind your back, right? I can get screens

The whole thing about money owed is over and done with.

Can't you just live on an island? Can snails swim?

I assume you were owed money and now are paid?

Me? Theoretically I would not take the money because I don't want to move every 6 months.

However, Col had a good idea when he said to have someone put it in a terrarium.

Keep it in there forever taking wonderful care of it and also collecting all of the mucin us women love to put on our face.

The snail just waits for you to come back. It doesn't sound like it's a stupid snail.

It is an analogy for your life.

Do you want to go through your life constantly looking over your shoulder for those things in your past that are always in danger of catching up with you, crimes, bad things you might have done, debts that haven't been paid, etc? If the answer is yes, then go ahead and take the money.

But if you want to live a clean life where you don't have to worry about stuff because you don't commit crimes, you try hard not to do bad things, you make sure your debts are paid then don't take the money because you don't want to have to live life constantly on the run.

Yup. The riddle makes the snail assume the role of God in the sense that you can never actually kill it, which is why it's a test of sociopathy more than anything.

Some of the replies are VERY interesting

You seem to have missed the part where the snail "cannot be killed" (2nd bullet point) so doesn't matter how much salt and how many flame throwers you use it still creeps on, slowly, following you, forever or until it kills you whichever comes first.

Much better to pay your debts, err, I mean not take the money and live a happy life without having to worry about that stuff following you around for the rest of your life.

I don't know about god but I do know that your past is always there, no matter what you do, even if everybody else forgets the bad shit you do, you will always remember it. It will always be there right over your shoulder, following you, forever.

and ever

Interesting. So you are saying the snail isn't necessary god but the prospect of being followed can never be killed when said person is dealing with a life that follows them.

In that case everyone saying they would fart on a stick and the snail would stop are basically trying to escape the inevitable which is humanity judging them severely for their wrongdoings and they will try anything to get out of such responsibility.

I think the snail represents the bad things you do in life that follow you forever.

For example, say you borrow some money but don't pay it back. The institution or person that you borrowed from eventually gets tired of trying to get the money from you so they write off the debt or forgive the debt. You, however, know that you still owe that debt even if it has been forgiven. The knowledge that you ripped someone off stays with you until you either pay the debt back or you die.

Every time that something like that occurs in your life, when you chose the bad road over the good road takes a little bit of your soul. It builds and builds with every decision where you knowingly do the wrong thing. You cannot escape it no matter how much you lie to yourself or try to fool yourself, it is always there.

You can try to Dorian Gray the whole mess but just like he found out, there is no escaping it.

The snail is all the times you took the wrong path and did not bother to fix it, you cannot escape them and eventually they will most certainly kill you.

2MuchMark · 10-18-2023, 09:38 PM

Of course you would take the money.

The idea is that the snail is relentless, and always coming after you, so that you couldn't enjoy the money completely - the worry would always gnaw at you.

If you live in Maine, take the money and move to California, it would take about 10.25 years for the snail to find you, assuming a distance of about 4300 kilometres at an average snail speed of 0.048kh/h. When you finally see the snail coming at you in the California sun, just buy yourself another 10 years and move back to Maine. Or Florida, or ...

PS

Snails are really cool. This past summer I made a hyperlapse of one I found in my backyard, just taking its sweet time through the grass, stopping once in a while to look around, etc... they look really alien up close. CUTE!!

I guess you missed the part that said the snail knows your location at all times, it does not need to find you, it knows exactly where you are.

And knowing the distance a snail can travel does not help at all. It does not say that you know which snail it is or what kind of snail it is or where the snail is when you receive the money. It could be a giant African snail, it could be a sea snail, it could be a tiny little garden snail. You have no idea, you actually have to avoid every single snail in the universe thus avoiding the snail becomes an endless, tedious task that eventually ends up taking every moment of your life from you, destroying your very soul.

Best to not take the money and just be happy.

Depends on which island, on Manhattan island 10 mill really doesn't go all that far, while on a desert island the 10 mill is just toilet paper.

was going to say...

there´s a movie like this, the girl gets fucked by a guy, it´s now after her and not him, but she has to pass the fuck on or if it kills her, it continues back to killing him...

The beach scene was pretty fucked up & worrying, the people slung around & she´s seeing it, but no one else can, just see her hair pulled up and end up being chucked around by it...

basically, you´re fucked!

Have seen it, it´s a cheap movie, but was still entertaining & kept you gripped

This post is on to something.

Something about that riddle gives me the same vibes as the classic riddle of "would you rather get a MILLION now or a penny that doubles every day"
