Puzzle games of the sort you mentioned, old adventure games, anything focused on brainpower rather than twitchy trigger fingers. They tend to be too easy for me, unfortunately, so I tend to finish quickly and wind up making my own fun.

No, you're thinking of Harvey Dent, or your torso in about two seconds.

I never said I don't play video games from time to time, but I don't just walk up to people and start talking about it unprompted.

That's not the kind of rack I meant, but sure, the spikes are always a good choice. Have fun now!

Your commitment to literalness is commendable in its way, but that's not how booby traps work.

Why, with a grasp of the obvious like that, you could be a writer for Gotham!

Yikes, that's a stretch. And speaking of stretches, I bought an antique torture rack to incorporate into my latest booby trap! Let's give it a try!

Efficient! And they told me Skinnerian conditioning wouldn't work through the Internet!

RIDDLE ME THIS, AV CLUB!

It's up now and I'm logging off to engage in more lucrative mischief. Have fun with the quibblers!

TIME'S UP!

Surprisingly, no! Admitting your own ignorance and praising me is always a good strategy to survive my company.

I don't know why you think that's better.

You do realize you're holding up a can of spray deodorant and you're missing a large portion of your torso, yes?

You're right! It's not close at all!

Oh no, if only I had years of experience fighting someone who carries around a grappling hook, and had more than one kind of booby trap at my disposal!

Yes, if no one gets the correct answer I will reveal it just before 11:00, then escape with my ill-gotten loot in triumph. Should be fun!

I'll give you this: few people have the courage to embrace their own bone-deep stupidity as you have. I'll also give you this: some horrific injuries!

Oh, for God's sake, we've been over this. I told my idiot henchmen to remove the safe, which they didn't because they were idiots. That left me without a key piece of data and taught me a valuable lesson: don't trust idiot henchmen to set up a deathtrap.

Takes one to know one. So, no.
