The REAL Ultimate Showdown

My father had this question for my brother and myself as we were enjoying a wonderfully satisfying dinner at a Chinese restaurant. I figure if anyone would know, you guys would. So... vote.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

It was a tough one, Chuck Norris is designed to kill, whereas Duct Tape is more a 'Renaissance Man', so Chuck would have the physical advantage, but you just can't outdo the flexibility of the Tape....

I think that whilst the duct tape would be able to mangle ol' chucky to bits, chuck would use it to put himself back together, forming a Duct tape-Norris hybrid, the likes of which the world has never seen before.

Duct Tape wins.


Chuck Norris can't do stealthy-ninja mode.

Spoiler:
And yes, I actually own some of that stuff. It works just as well as normal duct tape.

Another one of Sandwitch's :wtf: dinner time conversation threads......
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Duct tape binds the universe together. Chuck Norris is merely a man, plus he was once defeated by Steve Irwin.

Lie. You were in the bar, wasted as hell. You don't discuss these kinds of topics in restaurants having dinner. ;)

But Norris roundhouse kicks the glue off the duct tape. :p

Duct tape would win Chuck Norris, because it wouldn't need to do nothing, just last while Chuck Norris tries to roundhouse kick it... Eventually, this would give Chuck Norris a cardiac arrest, while the event wouldn't have much of an effect to duct tape.

But Markku Uusipaavalniemi lasts longer than duct tape, so he would eventually triumph in the contest. Besides, he can tell the other players to brush the duct tape away.

And if that doesn't work, he could just stare the duct tape and make it catch fire.
There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.
