You know when you were a kid and you used to pick superhero identities? These days, you've gotten old and boring, so maybe you might pick investor identities instead (risky or not?! risky or not?!), but times were simpler then. You closed your eyes, and you could fly!
My siblings and I used to be the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, every Halloween, Thanksgiving and random Saturday for like four years. Older Bro would be Michelangelo (very cool), I would be Raphael (broody and melodramatic), and Younger Bro--talented gent--would double as Leonardo and Donatello (smart and smarter, respectively).
The thing with the TMNTs is that they usually fought together against a common foe. But do you really expect me to believe there was never any infighting? Certainly, there must have been more than what got shown during Saturday morning cartoons. Whether yea or nay, I'm thinking Younger Bro's personality disorder easily could have been settled this way.
LEONARDO
+ Equipped with a ninja sword
+ Strong follower of the Bushido code
+ Blue bandanna = calm under pressure
DONATELLO
+ Equipped with a big, long stick
+ In later comics, became part cyborg
+ Purple bandanna = probably gay
Round 1
Leonardo, solid in spirit, throws rock.
Donatello, certain of Leo's solidity, throws rock.
- Draw
Round 2
Unwavering in his resolution, Leonardo throws rock again.
Donatello, naturally, throws rock.
- Draw
- Donatello insults Leo's father, but remembering they're both orphans, feels bad afterward. Leo refrains from speaking.
Round 3
Staying the course, Leonardo throws rock once more.
Donatello cleverly predicts his move and throws paper.
- Paper covers rock, Donatello wins.
Winner (Donatello) receives: bigger, longer stick
Loser (Leonardo) gets: stuck
Next Throwdown: might be stately.
