Rock, Paper, Scissors is a joke. The very idea that a rock can be beaten by anything is patently absurd. I am of the firm (and correct) opinion that if one was faced with the prospect of being hit by a rock, and countered by holding up a piece of paper, this would be the result.
Matt, however, believes that something has to beat the rock otherwise what’s the point of the game. Which brings me to my point, if Rock, Paper, Scissors is ever to be taken seriously the three objects should actually be things that make sense in real life scenarios. I’m sorry, but there is absolutely no way a piece of paper would ever beat a rock. And if it doesn’t make sense it shouldn’t be. (Apply that philosophy to various things in your life). (more…)
