Exactly how does Paper beat Rock? |
|
The rock smashes scissors - okay. Scissors cut paper - devastating really. but
Paper wraps rock ?! Isn't the rock still in one piece and able to function as a rock? Perhaps bubble wrap would impair the function (until the little bubbles were all burst), but paper? I think not!
This is an outrage!

2. One thing I've learned from Bush |
|
Edited on Fri Nov-19-04 11:46 AM by Worst Username Ever
is that if you hide the rock or refuse to talk abou it, it doesn't exist.

4. Paper is the pacifist of the group |
|
Edited on Fri Nov-19-04 11:48 AM by jpgray
It wins by aggressively hugging its opponent into submission. It doesn't necessarily defeat rock--both objects win due to their peaceful coexistence. It's the asshat who chose rock in the first place that loses.
:D

6. Because "Jackhammer" is difficult to make using a hand motion |
|
That's what I always figured. Or "Dynamite," for that matter.

19. Dynamite is recognized in RPS |
|
It is depicted as a single index finger. It blows everthing up.
Because it is so powerful, it can only be used once per month. So keep it until there is a particularly unpleasant task.

13. Paper sits atop Rock and talks |
|
disparangingly about Rock and all of Rock's insecurities. Paper calls Rock fat. Paper says, "All you do is sit there one your worthless ass all day doing nothing. Get a job!"

15. Maybe it has to do with the pen being mightier than the sword thing |
|
Maybe there's some devastating gossip about the rock written on the paper. It's blackmail, see. The paper drapes over the rock, the rock reads the paper and shuts right up so as not to be exposed for the mineral he is.

It doesn't beat it. When under the paper, it can't be found to smash the scissors.
How's that work for an explanation? The Professor

26. Imagine the shock of the scissors when they cut |
|
through the paper and out comes the rock to smash them!
It's like Spy vs. Spy.
