This is tough, both hold very deal places in my heart. Vimes is one of, if not my most favorite Discworld characters; he arrested a Dragon, became a Duke, traveled through time to teach himself all he knows about Soldiering, and went temporarily insane and defeated a Great Old One while shouting a children's story as his battlecry. Missingno., however, inspired all sorts of cool ideas about postmodern games and incorporating glitches intentionally, which got me interested in Game Programming, which got me to frequent Forums, which inadvertently saw me migrate to this very forum and participate in this very discussion.
So I guess the only way to settle this is by Pokemon Duel!
A Wild MISSINGNO. appears!
Go, Commander Vimes!
Vimes used Monologue. He appeals to MISSINGNO.'s sensibilities!
It's not very effective...

Vimes has 999 Standard-Issue City Watch Helmets in his inventory! He collapses under the load! Movement is very difficult.
Vimes is Paralyzed.
MISSINGNO. used W͑̓̈́̎ͪater G̰̮u͕̜̝̻̍̽n̟̺̜̝ͨ̎!
Vimes is sodden and displeased.
Vimes used Shirk Resp̯͓̮͖̭͕ͅo̱̟͕̬n̬͕̰̙sibility. Sergent Colon, Captain Carrot, and Corporal Nobbs are now carrying the Helmets.
He is no longer Paralyzed!
MISSINGNO. used Ṣͮͭ̂ky Atta̽ͭck!

Vimes used Arrest: Assault with a Deadly Appendage!
