    If scissors pre-date paper, then what were they cutting? Don’t believe the lies!

    If you add Lizard and Spock, the game is still current tied.

      Ridiculous. They played Quartz Parchment Shears, as Ra intended.

        Papyrus invention predates parchment for about 2500 years, parchment was invented around the same time as paper in II century BCE.

    The next evolution would be to replace the simple rock with Dwayne Johnson.

    I was at a Texas Rangers game in the late 90s or early 00s and two kids were playing in the seats in front of me. The older kid played boogers wiggling all ten of his fingers at his opponent as a trump card. I still think about that. That little innovator is an adult now.

    I guess next up will the Torment Nexus. Using it means both players lose, but despite warnings not to use the Torment Nexus it becomes the most popular strategy and all games from that point on are losses

    In ancient China they played The Cycle of Life, Death, and the Five Elements but it became so convoluted and toxic everybody left the community.
