The first two times Elon won. But most recently, I won....custody

I would have laughed so hard if those two huge angry testosterone-bags just started thumb-wrestling.

They made a movie about an arm wrestling contest in which the protagonist could win a semi truck and thus custody of his child and this isn't enough for you?

I dare say, you ask too much.

So tell me, thenewgreen, when exactly did you give up on your dreams?

Which dream? I have had so many I've given up on. -Like the time I was going to build a space ship out of a card-board box and an old car battery my dad had in the garage. Or the time I was sure I was going to be a major league baseball pitcher. But the most heartbreaking of the dreams I've given up on was when I lost a race put on by the Sun Star Radio company and thereby realized I wasn't a Pepperpot. You see.... I was sure I was a Radium Baby.

I knew it! It was YOU the whole time!

Also, I get the impression you're just being silly now. Everyone knows you can't build a spaceship using a car battery — it has to be hand-cranked.
