I knew a guy who claimed that he'd never lost a game of rock-paper-scissors. Maybe, maybe not. Anyway, his condition was that he would only play once a day, maximum, which is bullshit.

Me, I'm a thumb-wrestler. I've been defeated, but only rarely and I attribute that to thumb strength and double-jointedness. Thumb-wrestling is a game of substance. Why leave things to chance when you can bet it all on one of the things that makes us human? (Well . . . I guess chance does too, but whatever.)
