chop off his head and throw it down some really long steps
>>215562963>Contemplate this, in the Tree of Woefuck I love this script
>>215562963Why is his name Tulsa Doom? Does he have a brother named Denver Doom? A sister named Oklahoma City Doom?
I'd reply:>What is flesh and steel without the will to use them to achieve one's goals? What use is an hammer if one does not have the drive to use it to build? What use is the strength of muscle to battle men if one does not have the courage to face their enemies? The riddle of steel is thus: how can steel be powerful if the mind is too weak to use it? It is not, therefore it is one's will that dictates ones power.Then I'd hit him with a big axe.
>>215562963>How do you respond without sounding mad?Call him a nigger, like duh!!!
>>215563054Also call him a nigger after you hit him with the axe
>>215562963>Steel isn't strong, boy, flesh is stronger!>How do you respond without sounding mad?Steel + kinetic energy mogs
>>215563028its a perfect film, basically
>>215562963Junior, you dare speak to this one with such disrespect?! You are courting death!
>>215562963Fun fact, James Earl Jones wasn't even meant to be in this movie. He just showed up on set dressed like that and started giving speeches so they made a film around it.
>>215563300It's flawed (the wooden acting being one, though Arnie is great) but they elevate it more by being there than if they weren't.
>>215562963I don't understand what you're saying. Can you explain it like I'm five?
>>215563562Kys
>>215562963Steel and flesh are insignificant next to the power of the Force!
>>215562963>without sounding mad?He's T U F F
>>215563054>Yet steel is only wielded through your flesh, boy. No man ever lifted a sword by pondering it. They lifted by the strength of their arms, the vigor of their hearts and the stoutness of their spines. The mind is meeker than muscle.
>>215562963>*cuts your head off*everything personnel, kid
>>215562963I contemplate it on the tree of woe, then I throw his head down some steps. Afterwards return the wayward daughter of King Osric to her home - with no further concern me and my companions seek adventure in the west. Many feuds and wars did I figh - honour & fear was heaped upon my name. I become a King by my own hand.This story shall also be told.
>>215564359>But whence came steel? It came from the bowels of the earth, hidden from all sight. Only the mind was able to find it, to devise the craft necessary to mold it, to know how to torture it and bend it to ones willthen i hit you with an axe
I wouldn't say anything, I would kill him and that's what Conan did.
I've always wondered what Robert E Howard's answer to the riddle of steel would be
>>215564555This is how all disagreements great and small should be resolved
>>215562963Will is what's strongest it's your will that gives the sword its strength and your flesh it's the will to power
>>215562963I chop his head off.
>>215562963>No, Conan. *I* am your father!I gasped
>>215562963>Steel isn't strong, boy, flesh is stronger!>How do you respond without sounding mad?Drive a steel sword through his flesh?
It's kind of a dick move to make a riddle where you're given two potential answers, but the real answer isn't either of them.
>>215562963I reply by saying a very mean joke about his hair
>>215563300its a perfect film, basilpoledourically
>>215564491*Evades axe*>You speak blasphemy to any blacksmith's ears, boy. Iron first came from the heavens; from the fallen stars of the night. It yielded to our hammers and fires, lifted by strength and forged by force. >The world does not bend to the mind, but to the body. All the will in the world is hollow without strength. Strength of the flesh is absolute. All power is founded on it.
>>215562963>How do you respondYou don't respond to the question at all. Just kill him. Everything else is superfluous.
>>215562963>steel was used to give u that shitty haircut, snakefag
>>215564734U mad.
>>215563040Doctor Doom is his descendant.
>>215563300I love the gravitas and how seriously it takes itself. It's like, 10000 times better than 300.
>You were sayin'?
>>215564859And what moveth the muscle? A pile of flesh without direction is madness manifest. Just as a pile of rocks on the ground are simply fragments of a broken mountain that will never become steel, fat and muscle do nothing on their own. And, which is more, will itself dies out without loyalty to a greater cause, the higher purpose guiding mind and body alike.
>>215564936>Now plain Thulsa shit!
