So tonight I'm going to an underground rock-paper-scissors tournament underneath a bridge in downtown L.A. How will my evening end?

This is apparently a fairly serious deal. I'm tossing in five bucks and going with an unpredictable array of weaponry that will include stones, interlocking metal blades, and lethal white sheets of compressed tree. Don't fuck with me tonight, friends.

you've got to repeat one of them for as long as you can until you think the other person will suddenly switch then you do some other one. Probably start with sissors or if the other person looks like they'll do rock start mwith paper first.

(only $5? it can't be that serious of a deal.)

The duffers always throw scissors first.

Unless they think you're a duffer, then they throw rock. Unless...

Are you using playground rules that include the nigh-omnipotent dynamite, vulnerable only to scissors??

How will it end? Everyone doing rocks, obviously...

You'd have to be doing rocks to even consider participating in something like this.

The scissors crowd were a cut above the rest, the paper gang folded and the stoners got wasted.

Ah..good old Rock...nothing beats that!

So in a sad twist of fate my roommate took my car keys in order to move my car out from behind hers. The move was successful, the returning of my keys to my room was not and they remained in her purse the whole night and apparently her cell phone was out of juice!! So I missed out on RPS.

My friend was telling me about something like this occuring the other night at some bar?! I really need to find out more. These Alex Kidd in Miracle World shenanigans have left me curious.
