Okay, let's just say you witness a horrible bus crash. You are the first person on the scene and you immediately pull out severely injured passengers. Then you recognize one of the casualties as your neighbor. But this neighbor of yours is also your worst enemy. He/she constantly heckles when you are on your way and coming home from work. Your neighbor makes everyday life hell. Deep down, you hate him/her.
 
But among the casualties is a little puppy. Now, while this puppy may look innocent, it is a test subject of a scientist who has been conducting tests on it. But there is a possibility that this puppy is carrying a virus that could decimate the whole planet.
 
If you opt to save your neighbor, he/she will continue to heckle you, but will make your life almost unbearable. If you opt to save the puppy, you may or may not die a slow and extremely painful death.
 
The bus has caught fire and will explode in little over 30 seconds.

So, who do you save? Your neighbor or the puppy?

I'd save my neighbor, find a rock, smash the puppies head and put it on a plastic bag. Throw it down a cliff, and laugh maniacally. These events all being videotaped by my neighbor, release it in the net and name it 1 neighbor, 1 man, 1 puppy, one cliff, one bus accident, one garbage bag, one rock.

The neighbor, carrying them in my arms as I walk away, a large bus explosion behind me blowing sterilized chunks of fiery puppy flesh all over so that a) the neighbor lives, and b) the world has been saved from Death Puppy, and c) I add gender equality to the statement cool guys don't look at explosions.

Unfortunately that might not work out so well, your Typing Kira, you make man and women alike look feeble and unsteady in the face of extreme danger and super massive explosions.

I would just attempt to save both. Puppy first, inside my jacket which thankfully contains an airtight but breathable vacuum within it. Risk would be limited to just myself. Then since I am assuming its not Clifford the badass awesome as dog, I am going with the logic that puppies are light and small, so should be okay to grab my neighbor too, and rescue him. I can't hate people though? I find it hard imagining I could? Maybe I would do what Amelie did to her neighbor. (later) after I ran into the explosion.

Well I wouldn't try to go save a dead puppy or my dead neighbor. 
 
Hopefully someone else noticed it as well.

@TypingKira:  Well if it was Clifford, then the people on the bus, and all around would have already been exposed to the virus anyway. Big red dog, not exactly easy to hide, so I would just save him, cause he is awesome, and fluffy,  and train him to be a war dog upon which I would ride around sniping the mutant killer Dogbies that the virus... oh wait wrong virus. >.>

Save my neighbor.  
I'd much rather be annoyed than potentially having the whole planet decimated.
