Gotta go with A on this one—3 minutes without air, 3 hours without shelter, 3 days without water, 3 weeks without food. Pretty sure I’d only last about 30 seconds without coffee though, if we’re being real! Once had to camp out unexpectedly during a surprise rainstorm, and wow, shelter really shot to the top of my priority list fast. Ever tried making a lean-to with only soggy newspaper and optimism?

Definitely going with A here—the classic rule of threes, though if my coffee stash ever runs low, I might not last 3 minutes without that either! The first time I heard this rule, I thought the “3 hours without shelter” bit was an exaggeration… until a sudden hailstorm rolled in during a ham radio field day.
