Question for January 25 - February 9:

Which would you rather be trapped in a gymnasium-sized room with...

A crazy Cupid thing chasing you with his bow and arrow

OR

A charging Unicorn


Details:

  • This is my attempt at a Valentine's theme. Although Valentine's Day is some time off, so is the next time I'll update this.
  • These aren't those wonderful love arrows we've all been hearing about, these are the real deal, like Braveheart would have used, if he had been an archer, and 1/3 the size.
  • Unicorns might not be directly related to Valentine's day, but I bet whoever invented them invented this dumb holiday too.
  • It's been a LONG time since I've used the old gymnasium-sized room!

 

 

RESULTS:

Unicorn: 7
Cupid: 5

 

Name: Taylor Bumpkins
Choice:
Unicorn
Comments: Well, I think that the Unicorn is the obvious choice, because it would be much easier to dodge than tiny pencil sized arrows. However, if Cupid were shooting his love arrows at me, I may change my choice.... but then again, changing your mind about who you love often wouldn't be a good thing. The Utilitarian in me would at that point have to choose the Unicorn as well, because breaking hearts by change of heart would not be a good thing. Not that I could by any means break anyone's heart... so yeah... the Unicorn seems to be the most solid choice. Thank you all and good night.


Name: Cliver
Choice:
Unicorn
Comments: Well, both sound pretty nasty but I think id have a better chance with the beast. First of all (assuming the unicorn can't fly) I would be on the same plain as my attacker. The
cupid would have the advantage of flight (because as we all know, cupids have wings). As the unicorn is charging, i kind of step to the side and jump on his back. Then, by covering his eyes I could ride on him (uncovering the left eye to turn left and well you get it). I'm not sure if that works on Unicorns but if they are anything like alligators, He's mine.


Name: clark
Choice:
Cupid
Comments: i could always take down Cupid with my Judo moves. the unicorn, on the other hand, would spear me in the stomach.


Name: Allison
Choice:
Cupid
Comments: I don't have any witty explanation for why I chose this one this time. I guess the only rationale behind choosing Cupid would be the hope that his arrow actually had some sort of mystical power to make men fall in love with me, so if he did finally chase me down and hit me, then it might not be such a bad outcome.


Name: kimmy
Choice:
Unicorn
Comments: cause i could dodge it and then jump on its back and ride it


Name: Andy Reddy
Choice:
Unicorn
Comments: I'd pulverize that thing into Uni-creamed-corn!...But I'll need that piece of re-bar from the previous Battlebot question.


Name: spautz
Choice:
Unicorn
Comments: Cupid is evil. Anything resembling Cupid is evil. Anything even remotely resembling anything that's at all similar to Cupid is evil. End of story.


Name: Kevin
Choice:
Unicorn
Comments: Judging from past experience, cupid is a lousy shot.


Name: Jamie Mills
Choice:
Cupid
Comments: I guess I would pick the crazy Cupid thing, even though it's a tough decision. I am not fast enough to evade a charging Unicorn for extended amounts of time, but I do think that I could flat out outrun Cupid, because of those stubby little legs. Plus, how good is he going to be able to aim the arrows if he's running? So, I would be way ahead of him and his tiny little arrows, so even if he would keep up, he wouldn't be able to aim them. I would toast that Cupid character...He's mine...


Name: Josh Branham
Choice:
Cupid
Comments: I could outrun the Cupid thing until he ran out of arrows. The unicorn though would probably be in much better shape than me. Glad to see your site up and running again Eudy. Of course I just checked it on a whim so it could've been up for months and I'm just realizing it.


Name: Noremac
Choice:
Unicorn
Comments: In any cartoon or show that you have seen cupid on he is either a great shot...or screws things up by making the wrong person fall in love with someone. So assuming I'm alone in the gymnasium I'm a goner either way. If I'm quick enough I can side step the unicorn every time it charges...like a bull fighter. (by the way in case you missed that I did say "if")


Name: Kyle
Choice:
Cupid
Comments: although I've never tried, I'm pretty sure I could catch the arrows in the air like you see on kung-fu movies. That would give that cupid something to think about
