...could you take in a fight. Find out! You know you've always wondered.

That's right, bring it on gramps

Oisín · Jan 27, 2009, 04:00 PM

Me = wuss.

Laminar · Jan 27, 2009, 04:03 PM

10.

mattyb · Jan 27, 2009, 04:07 PM

Laminar, you're 6 feet loads of inches. Is that 10 with each limb?

ThinkInsane · Jan 27, 2009, 04:25 PM

In my file of contingencies for every occasion, it says "Go for those glass hips" in the event of a mass assault by old people.

SpaceMonkey · Jan 27, 2009, 04:29 PM

Get up in a tree! Old people can't climb trees!

My height was just about the only thing I had going for me in that assessment.

You're lucky it didn't ask whether or not you have thenthative thkin.

zro · Jan 27, 2009, 09:14 PM

All of them.

But according to this mumbo-jumbo, 17.

Jawbone54 · Jan 27, 2009, 11:31 PM

Morals got you too, eh, RR?

ort888 · Jan 27, 2009, 11:43 PM

This is poo poo. It said I could only take down 12, but I know that is wrong. I could mow down 90 year olds until I dropped from exhaustion. I'm sure I could take out 30+

My grandfather just turned 90 this year and I could totally kick his ass.

Prove it.
Okay, please don't.

Shaddim · Jan 28, 2009, 12:47 AM

Yeah, this is crap. If I had the inclination, and a damned good reason, I could take out 100s of the wrinkly little buggers.

mattyb · Jan 28, 2009, 04:42 AM

You guys are just jealous that me and ThinkInsane kick grey ass.

Mac User #001 · 08:09 AM

A lot of you are lying...

Laminar · Jan 28, 2009, 08:46 AM

The first person to make a virtual reality version of this gets my money. Also the 3rd-grader quiz.

osiris · Jan 28, 2009, 08:51 AM

I know I could easily take way more than that.

'princess'? You better know what you're doing, smart boy.

Look, here's the thing. He's in great shape... for a 90 year old. But the man can barely hold on to my arm when I help him up and down stairs. One slight shove and he would go flying, be on the ground and hurt... either so bad he would be unable to get up, or at the very best, he would take at least 30 seconds to a minute to stand back up.

I seriously doubt he has the strength to punch with any force at all. A kick to the shins might sting, but it's not going to do any damage. A bite might be bad, but he lacks the strength to grapple someone before attempting to bite them.

90 year olds just cannot fight. No matter how many you have.

Now if it was a battle to see who could tell the most awesome stories about the 40s... then well, he would kick my ass. So it's all relative.

Totally. I guess it would depend on the 90 year old. Some have annoyed me pretty good.

dcmacdaddy · Jan 28, 2009, 09:52 AM

I only got 18 on the 90-year-old quiz but I got a whole 20 on the 5-year-old quiz.

Looks like I hate little kids more than old people. Who knew?

Oisín · Jan 28, 2009, 10:01 AM

Hah, I beat you!

ort888 · Jan 28, 2009, 10:13 AM

5 year olds would be a much tougher foe then 90 year olds.

Chongo · Jan 28, 2009, 10:15 AM

same for both, 16

Really? I'd just grab one by the arms, and start spinning in circles, clocking any 5 year old who dared come near.

osiris · Jan 28, 2009, 10:25 AM

I think we should put the 5 year olds and 90 year olds in the deathmatch pit of death.

ShortcutToMoncton · Jan 28, 2009, 10:54 AM

ThinkInsane · Jan 28, 2009, 10:55 AM

Got 31 on the 5 year olds. You people need to let all this "morality" business go when it comes to defending yourself against swarms. I'd pull a leg off a 90 year old and use it as a club on the 5 year olds.

I have issues.

Railroader · Jan 28, 2009, 01:14 PM

Ha! See, if I didn't have morals I'd take you all!

No morals:

Railroader · Jan 28, 2009, 01:18 PM

5 year olds -

With morals: 16

No morals: 28

stoopid morals. edit: stoopid not able to display number correctly web site

This reminds me of a local news story a while back.

A 90+ year old man (former Army Ranger) got jumped by two dudes. Well one of the assailants died from a crushed collar bone and the other was just beaten badly.

I think certain 90 year olds could take all of us.

Dakar V · Jan 28, 2009, 01:19 PM

I think I read about that.

Little kids are pretty fat these days, though.

A year or two back there was a video going around of two guys trying to jump some older dude who was a WWII veteran--I think he was a Marine from someplace in the Midwest. This guy handed a beating to both the young punks. I think they caught the kids eventually, too. Can you imagine the shame of going to the local jail knowing you got your ass handed to you by some old guy? Talk about being somebody's b!tch. Fitting justice if you ask me. HA!

Then I'll switch to a tactic of using them as bowling balls and roll them to knock over incoming 5 year-old/pins.

You have to catapult them and launch them like skeet. Hours of fun.

Laminar · Jan 28, 2009, 02:32 PM

Skeet skeet skeet

osiris · Jan 28, 2009, 02:38 PM

actually, you yell "Pull!". Then the little fat bastid gets launched like a sack of flower.
