Ralston: Ready? Zero serving zero... aaaand, I win again, twenty-one to nothing. Captain Victorious: I don't get points for hitting you?? What a rip-off...
Reminiscent of that old joke:
A man shoots a duck on a farmer’s land. He walks past the fence, keeping the cows and chickens inside. He picks up the duck and starts to leave when the farmer says, “What are you doing with my Duck?”
The hunter protests, says, “Look, I shot it, it’s my duck!”
The farmer says, “My land, my duck!”
So, the farmer says, “look, let’s have a contest, winner takes the duck.”
The hunter says, he is game (bad pun) and asks what the contest will be. The farmer tells him it would be a punching contest whoever hits the other in the face the hardest without giving up, wins. And since he wasn’t trespassing on the hunter’s property, he should go first. The hunter agrees.
The farmer lines up and gives the hunter a heavy haymaker, knocking him off his feet. A few minutes later, the hunter rises, and says, “OK NOW IT IS MY TURN!”
The farmer scoops up the duck and throws it at the hunter. “I give up, YOU WIN keep the damn duck!”
