In the game Rock, Paper, Scissors, two opponents randomly toss out hand gestures, and each one wins, loses or draws with equal probability. It’s supposed to be a game of pure luck, not skill — and indeed, if humans were able to be perfectly random, no one could gain an upper hand over anyone else.

There’s one problem with that reasoning: Humans are terrible at being random.

These memories only got stronger on that fateful day we all saw it in pieces and burning to the ground.  The doors of the R Bar have been closed for 873 days – but the countdown ends and the R Bar opens its doors again!!!
