Also, is it just me or does this forum attract people with asperger syndrome like a gosh darned magnetron? This is starting to become uncanny.

You're getting that vibe too?

Holy crab this is the dumbest thread I have seen in a long time.

Anyway, if someone challenged me to a duel, I would go for fists.

What about you guys?

I think Mark Twain idea is one of the best in this kind of situation.

I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would
take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place
and kill him.

If you have to have a duel over it, at what point has the woman's feelings on the matter been considered?
Hypothetical: You and your best friend might both like the same woman. She does not know that either of you like her, much less both. Her feelings on the matter don't exist because the issue has not come up for her. If you privately decide atwist the pair of you who shall win the right to court without interference, the winner is more likely to be successful than if they both try simultaneously.

I speak in hypotheticals between 11:00 and 11:16 PM. It's my job. (Seriously, I get over a penny per minute.)

As for duel terms, I'd go for a run. Whoever dies of exhaustion first loses. Less bloody that way. (I have to keep my antiquated code of conduct spotless!)

Fists.

I'm useless at all fighting techniques except for punching.

 There is no need to expose the womenfolk to the rigors of manly combat. You must duel eachother in the dark. The terms are hot sloppy makeouts.

 They will never understand our manly ways.

You know. I know that's a jokey post but I can't help but feel it comes off as needlessly degrading to gays and lesbians.

The rules of courtly love state that two can love the same one, but one cannot love two. Additionally it is a rule to never break apart a proper love. Thus it follows that if two guys love the same girl, then the girl should state which one she loves, and the other wish the couple well and seek a new love. However if the girl cannot decide, or claims she loves both, then she truely loves neither. At this point competition proper begins, with the point being to have the girl love one or the other, not beat the competitor into a pulp so you're the only option.

In short, by challenging another man to a Pokemon duel to break up a proper love affair you have made a dishonorable cad of yourself, you philistine. Begone and wash the stain of your crimes from your name with the blood of Sacarens.

Semi-auto shotguns at 50 paces. Fastest trigger finger wins, and it just so happens that I've spent my life speed-clicking stuff with a mouse.

That is, if the first shot doesn't knock the other guy on his butt :P

Oh, wait. Someone challenges me to a duel in general? Longswords. Gotta be gentlemen about it.

It's more of a poke at overly manly emphasis, stemming from the idea of treating women as property and as an extension unable to handle things men are assumed to be solely able to handle. And how this behavior would be hated by such people.

 I apologize for any unintended antagonism towards any group and to the OP himself. It was a silly thing he presented, but we gotta keep the joking to the core idea and away from the guy himself.
