I have this one covered. I have a Jello filled moat surrounding my house carefully covered with styrofoam that looks just like grass. As soon as you step on it, you fall straight and get all disoriented. That is when the lights come on, the music starts and I whip off my clothes to reveal my wrestling costume (with a cape and gold jockstrap BTW). I will dive straight in and beat that ass in ways that you may find strangely erotic. I have never lost one of these contests, but, even if I did, I still win. That is the beauty of it. Producers will be on hand after the match for you to sign waivers for the footage to be broadcast nationwide.

An old Hindi legend, a Monk in his cave meditating and about to attain Samadhi was attacked by a bandit who mercilessly cut the Monk’s head off. However, instead of blood the terrible Goddess Kali flew up out of the monk’s neck, killed the bandit and proceeded to lay waste the country for miles about. So be careful, maybe I’m not sleeping…

I’m still standing, brohams! What, you drunk or something? Your momma make you promise not to get your big-boy pants dirty? I don’t know what your problem is, but it’s time to step outside. How you plan to stop me now that I plan to straight-up slay the next 40 generations of your family? Hell, you wanna make it 80? Choose your weapon, Francis!

I argue logic paradoxes until you suffer a Godel Theorem mind crash:

“Umm… if you slay me, _what_ 40 generations of descendants?”
