Yeah that's right. I WENT there.
Anyway... what?
Anyway, I've officially taken it upon myself to create a versus topic of the day. And today's contenders, as you may have guessed, are deceptive ropes and devious handcuffs, the two main ways to make the ties that bind, baby.
In the red corner, we have the retractable, lockable, and diabolical handcuffs of chain-linked doom!
Handcuffs are a favorite of many, but why? To be honest, they're my personal favorite. They're easy to use and, of course, one size usually fits all (unless you're a tree or a termite). Without killing any time you can have someone locked and helpless and ready for your needs, and you can't ever get out of them! And who doesn't love fuzzy handcuffs? The main disadvantage of handcuffs is that they're really only good for cuffing wrists and ankles.
In the blue corner stands the coiled foe of doom, the incredible ROPE!
Of course, rope simply has many more conveniences than handcuffs. First of all, if someone sees you carrying rope around he's not as likely to think you're a weirdo than if you're walking around with a pair of handcuffs. It's usually something you can leave lying around in your house without people asking too many questions. Unlike handcuffs, rope has a lot of other functions than just binding people's arms behind their back. On a related note, you could end up in like a million situations where rope would come in handy and not involve tying anybody up. Boondock Saints should've taught us that years ago. And who doesn't love the look of someone's hands when they're bound with rope? Whether you tie the palms together, opposite, or simply facing out, it always looks great to see how helpless and restricted they look.
And so... let the battle commence!
