The stick, the carrot always tries to placate, the stick goes straight for the kill.

Unless it's at night, then it's advantage carrot, night vision see.

Nelson Mandela vs Robert Mugabe, bare knuckles.

"Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you." Which is exactly what happened to Winston Smith. His rebellion was not one that was foolish and too outspoken. He silently tried to defeat the Party for his personal happiness, and in the end it cost him everything he had fought for, and his love for Julia. He had learned to love Big Brother, which was his ultimate fear when trying to live a life of individuality. The Party had defeated him.

Been a bit heavy this evening how about a versus contest.

Who'd win between Gordon Brown armed with a spear, and a Grizzly Bear.

My money's on Gordon, here's face shows no emotion, so the bear wouldn't know it was in trouble. Then he could bore it unconscious by banging on about tax credits.

A clear win for the Bear...

Bare knuckles Mugabe wins, but Mandela does walk with that stick now so he might win, unless it's at night and Mugabe has a carrot in his pocket

The stick still wins, as it uses night vision goggles

God vs an atheist with a knife.

Wasn't that in His Dark Materials? Not much of a contest, if I remember it right.
 

Hmmm...according to this, a lover beats a fighter. That can't be right.

Willy'll poke your eye out, or so I've heard.
 

Admiral Nelson, he's so tough, he can kiss a bloke, and still be nails.

The Dalai Lama vs a Llama.

The Llama wins in this life, the Dalai in the next.
 

Good call!

There is no next life in buddism, it's all about reincarnation. The DL could return as a Tiger and eat the Llama.
