 [ "Superpowers can't win wars against eachother" ]

1: Right. Because of mutually assured destruction... UNLESS... Unless, of course, someone seized control of all the nukes at the same time (somehow)... And then whoever THAT GUY wanted to LOSE the war... Would be UNABLE TO RETALIATE. WOW! BUT I DON'T KNOW GUYS! THAT SOUNDS VAGUELY ANALOGOUS TO SOMETHING I READ ON URBAN DICTIONARY! UNABLE TO RETALIATE!? Well, then THAT GUY could just choose winners and losers completely arbitrarily, right?

  * e.g.,  ... Hym "Superpowers can't win wars against eachother... Unless THAT. Unless that thing I just said. Because then it wouldn't be mutual. Is THAT what Emma mean when she brought up MUTUAL? Why did she bring that up? Is it NOT THAT anymore?"
