MODERATORS
Sure, us Americans are obviously delusional, but can we talk about the fact that almost half of all brits think they would lose to a goose? They're 20 pounds, have no teeth or claws, and their bones are hollow. Have a little confidence, guys, I'm sure you can take poultry in a fight.
Actually, this does explain why all those brits in Untitled Goose Game let the goose walk all over them.
Less than 80% of people think they could take on a rat in a life or death battle. You could literally pass out and fall on it and probably crit it.
But if you miss you wake up with no face
Not everyone is a 15-55 year old able bodied person.
A good chunk of the population is disabled and mobility impaired. Large swaths of the population are elderly.
Almost half of Brits might not be as able-bodied as you might imagine.
I'm more interested in the rat fight, because I had my fair share of mouse encounters and rats are bigger, more dangerous and just as quick.
I mean, Americans have huge obesity rates, but apparently, nearly 20% of us think we can take a chimp. I'm sure a rat couldn't kill me, but I have no idea how I would catch one with my bare hands, so that feels like a draw to me.
Might be easier to catch if its literally gnawing at you and attacking you.
I think of it more for the rat, that if it wants to it’ll fuck me up, but I’m more likely to kill it before it kills me.
Geese are terrifying though
If you know you will fight it, might as well just go for it and grab it's neck or something
And the fight would be harder than against a cat.
Wtf are those people smoking? Have they ever seen a domesticated cat in severe distress??
Cats have FIVE pointy ends and an extremely powerful will to live.
I would rather fight any bird than a cat.
I generally agree, but maybe not all birds:
MARIO STOMP!
They may not technically have teeth but they have a serrated beak.
