When I play rock/paper/scissors, I understand that scissors can beat paper, and I get how rock can beat scissors, but there's no way paper can beat rock. Paper is supposed to magically "wrap around" rock, rendering it immobile?
Why the hell can't paper do this to scissors?
Screw scissors, why can't paper do this to people? Why aren't sheets of notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they attempt to take notes in class?... I'll tell you why-- BECAUSE PAPER CAN'T BEAT ANYBODY!
A rock would tear that up in 2 seconds.
When I play rock/paper/scissors, I always choose rock. Then when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper, I say jokingly I would punch them in the face with my already clenched fist and say, "Oh I'm sorry. I thought paper would protect you"
Regards,

Haha, that was a hoot. I like that concept. I used to play it when I was growing up and we added extra ones like Lava, Rain, Wind.. stupid things like that.. We would play for hours, then it would end in a fight because
"Rain beats your lava!"
"No, my lava was so hot, it made your clouds evaporate"
"Lava cant do that!"
"Yes it can, watch!"
It was a pretty physical game lol
