It's the second time in a week I've read it written as "Paper-Scissors-Rock". What is going on? Did we at some stage decide that "Rock-Paper-Scissors" did not roll off the tongue?

I am so confused.

Me too, what happened? Maybe it's called something different nowadays. Anyways, those puppets look cute and fun to play with! It would be a good gift for kids. It might be difficult to hold up your fingers to fight frieza like that.

Really enjoyed that. The fighting was well done along with the skit. Am also curious about "Paper-Scissors-Rock" instead of "Rock-Paper-Scissors". Wonder where that order came from.

I'm just curious, what is ANN's processes when it comes to getting news and report them? Because this video is already over a week old and ANN finally reported on it.

Are they trying to revolutionize arm wrestling? Wouldn't that look like the characters are hugging? Or not to mention they characters would be upside down in almost every hand game.

Hi there,
I did send this in as soon as it came out, but there are other articles on higher priority. That's usually what happens, anyway. Don't think that the team isn't working hard, because trust me, they are! Very Happy

That fight was more enjoyable than watching Goku vs Syn/Omega Shenron.

The rock-paper-scissors thing probably was referencing the fact that it was used a lot in the Dragonball adventures.

"Paper-Scissors-Rock" is how I learned about it. Sometimes kids call it "Rochambeau" too for some reason.

In America, "roshambo" is also called "Sack tapping". This, according to it's Wiki article "is a slang term for a form of bullying practiced by some adolescents as a 'game' where a male or female participant attacks, by slapping, tapping, punching, kicking, elbowing, twisting, or backhanding a male victim's testicles."
