About This Quiz

Rock, Paper, Scissors, is simply one of the best games of all time. You can flip a coin, you can draw straws, you can roll dice, you can do any number of things to choose how something works out between people, but there is no better way to do so than to play "Rock, Paper, Scissors." Unless you have been living under a rock (did you see what we did there?) you obviously have played this game but just for the point of clarity, let's break it down. Usually, on the count of three you put forth your outstretched hand into one of three shapes against another person, and whatever you put down is what wins the game. 

Rock beats scissors as it breaks them apart by striking them, scissors beats paper, as it cuts through it, and paper beats rock as it sands it down. While the game is mostly chance, it isn't always, because if you play with someone long enough, you start to figure out their scene.

But the real question is, which one are you? The tough as nails rock, the underestimated paper, or the always dangerous scissors? Take this quiz to find out. Ready? 1, 2, 3, go!
