a Battle of Wits, and who wins?

Please refer to
The scene in the Princess Bride,
Called the Battle of Wits.
Its on youtube. Its halarious.
And its what some of the
Other current 12 step threads are like.

Please watch the scene to participate in this thread.

"I can clearly not choose the forum thread in front of you"

They both seem like poison to me.
Only if you have built up an immunity to debating on the internet,
Can you prevail, just as the man in black,
Had built up an immunity to Iocaine powder,
So he could put it in both glasses of wine,
To ensure victory.

I have placed my poison in
Two other curent threads in this
Messgaeboard. But I have established an immunity
To Iocaine powder. Its odorless, tasteless,
And dissolves instantly in any liquid.

Remember, the winner of the battle of wits
Was the underdog's, the man in blacks idea,
And it succeeded in saving the girl from
Being held prisoner to the Sicilian ring leader.

Wouldn't be as funny of a movie if
The men would just let the girl decide
Which man she would like to be prisoner of?
No, that would be boring, even though rational.

My point is,
Sometimes we can become prisoners
Of our own words, even though
It was our sole intention to help
Others, our words were definately
Not received or interpreted correctly.
Could be our fault for transmitting them
Improperly. In any event,
The wise thing to do is perhaps
Refrain from playing in a battle of wits,
Unless you are confident you can end up the winner.

And its too bad you lost,
You should have known
That no man's wits are any match
To the mind of a sicilian!!!!

MUHAHAHAHAHAA

*falls over dead*
