The Rock Always Wins

This rock definitely wins.

I just ran accross this picture of a sizeable boulder I stumpled upon while exploring around Gunnison. It got me thinking about something I frequently forget about and subsequently re-remember over and over again...

The rock always wins. Whether you send it or not. You will die. It will still be there. Score one for the rock. Also. No matter how strong you get, there will always be a rock that you can't climb no matter how hard you try. Another point for the rock. You can smash up all the rock, then an asteroid (a big space rock) will come down and smash you. More points for the rock. Then there will be crazy volcanos and climate events that will exterminate all life on the planet, leaving nothing...but rock. The rock always wins.

Which begs the question: What idiot made the rules for rock-paper-scissors?
