The other day, someone asked me why, whenever I interview someone, I always end with the question 'Who do you think would win in a fight, astronauts or cavemen?'
As any true Joss Whedon fan could teIl you, I took the question from an episode of Joss Whedon's excellent TV show, Angel, in which the main characters carry on a running (often heated) debate as to who would win.
So why do I use it so often? Partly because it's a light-hearted way to end an interview, but mostly because I think it gives whoever's in the spotlight a great opportunity to leave the reader with a smile.
To date, I've seen dozens of answers, all of them different. Opinions vary as to which faction would emerge victorious, so I thought it was about time we settled the question once and for all.
So how about you?
Who do you think would win in a fight, astronauts or cavemen?
Feel free to elaborate on your decision in the comments
