Best reply, thank you for that -- I forgot about that movie...

But, as this is HN and we aren't allowed the luxury of comedy in this state (I thought we were stateless) -- Ill have to go with the binary position of the fact that we are either funny or un-funny... I beleive myself to be funny, I believe you to be funny... but my funny logic turns to fuzzy logic here so I need you to be solid with me???

Glad some people on HN still make jokes.

I mean, yes, world class Risk players ;-)

There's nothing clear about it, considering they're commonly held as a producer of top-tier chess players.

Samstave must be joking because Risk is far less than a century old.
