Lion Mutilates 42 Midgets in Cambodian Ring-Fight

[schmosef]

Or they could just choose the ones least popular among them and simply throw them at lion.
And carefully thrown midget could even injure the lion!

That dishonourable strategy isn't in line with the idea of a midget fighting league taking on a lion to prove their pride.

[GNEP]

But it's not just on behalf of those midgets in the ring! It's to prove the might of midgets WORLDWIDE! Hardly an unimportant goal I think you'd agree.

[schmosef]

I think it's a trivial goal. And no matter what a group of 40 midgets might say, I think that they'd quickly come to agree with me after being locked up with a lion for even a few moments.

[KvHagedorn]

Funniest thread in months..

[GNEP]

OK then, I've thought of a way around Schmo's objection: nobody specified that it was 40 live midgets that need enter the ring. Bring one that's already dead to stuff down the feline's throat.

As long as the other midgets are all, erm, buddhists or something (regarding the dead body as merely an empty shell), then the problem of anyone not wanting to sacrifice themselves is solved.

And we could probably make sure that the 1 dead midget was killed in the first place by a lion whilst out walking on his or her own, thus inspiring the other 39 on to greater glory as they seek revenge.

Alternatively: one's more effective in targetting and throwing at lion a midget that's already dead.

[schmosef]

You know, there's nothing that says the lion has to be alive either.

Where's the honour in these balagan approaches? The surviving midgets would be laughing stocks. Hardly worthy of any praise and doubtful that their efforts would be appreciated by midgets worldwide.

It has to be a fight between 40 live midgets and a lion. No crazy loop holes.

The lion would win.

[KvHagedorn]

Umm.. what a lot of stereotypers you all are. A midget is not a midget is not a midget. What if one of the midgets was Yoda? Hmmm? How about a pint-sized Jean-Claude van Damme?

[schmosef]

wtf?

[schmosef]

40 full sized Jean-Claude van Damme's would get sliced and diced just as easily as 40 midgets.

You do realize that Yoda doesn't exist? That Force thing, with like the uh, what-you-call-it mendochlorians and shit, that's all make believe, yo.

[Jon P. Inghram]

But... what if they were all wearing Ewok costumes? The lion might choke on the artificial hair!

[KvHagedorn]

If they were wearing Ewok costumes, the lion might get amorous..

[GNEP]

VERY good point there KvH.

[DukeP]

Which still might be pretty messy, afaik.

[dZeus]

what if one (or more) of the midgets has a robot body? Those would have the strength of 10 gorillas... and would easily beat the lion.
