On Day Eight of SciFi Mafia’s 21 Days of Christmas Loot, SciFi Mafia gives a nod to “Big Bang Theory” with this awesome “Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock” t-shirt.
Here’s the official description of this nod to Sheldon’s greatness and this geeky spin on an old fave game to decide fate:
Throw Down
We’ll be honest here. We hadn’t heard of Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock until that episode of The Big Bang Theory. You could say that prior to that day we were traditional roshamboists. When we heard Sheldon explain how it works and why it’s superior to your standard-grade RPS, we immediately paused the TV and went over to the Intarwebs to do research. And indeed, we found the page by Sam Kass, the genius behind this version. His phenomenon must now be part of our life. However, none of us knew anything about this version of the game.
