No. It would make me an idiot, yes, but I'd just be a guy who had a bunch of plastic surgery done to him who calls himself the single greatest threat to all of humanity.

Better South Park analogy would have been a man who wants to be a dolphin...

More fun with brain hurting: he/she is the woman's long drive champ, but not the female long drive champ!

Yes. That's a good way of summing up my sex-vs-gender view.

I do see your point, but even if you were to become a manbearpig, someone else may see you as some kind of bearpigman or something, even though it is obvious to you that you are a manbearpig. I am being super-cereal.

4 yards. That's it. If you are going to call that cheating, then I think you should stay off the track where .001 seconds counts. It was stated that a significantly longer shot was made in the warmup rounds, by the previous winner. So it would appear that it did win by random luck, which is probably why the other competitors (the ones who know what to look for) are NOT complaining.
