Jason: Paige, I don't think you understand! I've spent hundreds of hours trying to defeat the red orb guardian in this video game! You have to tell me how you got past him! You have to! Did you use the flaming sword? The screaming sword? The sword of death? The sword of pain? The ax of vengeance? The mace of might? The razor arrows? The exploding arrows? What? What? What? Paige: If you must know, I simply walked right by him. Jason: Well, of course you did once he was dead. Wait! I know! It was the sword of fury! Am I right?

Reminds me of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal from the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy:

To deal with a beast, one should wrap a towel around one’s own head. This creature is so mind-bogglingly stupid that it assumes that if someone cannot see it, then it cannot see the person”
