Paper is notorious for painful paper cuts, but don't see how that would hurt the rock. But what if it's a course grit sandpaper?

But sandpaper is made using sand, which is just a fancy name for itty bitty tiny rocks.

The pen is mightier than the sword, but it needs an accomplice, who is paper. While Pen is out terrorizing Sword, Paper is hanging around quarries, shooting meaningful glances at the cowering rocks.

paper is used for the written word, the written word can move mountains, move people to war, to kill, to love, to hate, to help each other.
mountains are blown up by a work order (written on paper somewhere)nothing beats the written word - paper is part of the process of communication that beats everything.

There's actually a rock paper scissors society, they say this is the most commonly asked question. They claim it comes from an ancient Chinese tradition where when a request was sent to the ruler on a piece of "paper" or the equivalent at the time, the rock was placed over the paper if the request was accepted, the paper was draped over the rock, indicating defeat of the request, if the request was rejected. Hence, paper over rock = defeat.

I quoted these from here, there are other thoughts on this paper enigma there also.

When I die, I want to go peacefully in my sleep, just like my dear old grandad.

And not screaming in terror, like his passengers.

One for those on the left hand side of the pond. Those in real countries may have to work harder.

I've seen people make giant poster-sized birthday or graduation cards using this method of inserting candy bars throughout the message. Awesome gift for the candy lover!

Shouldn't there be some Hershey Kisses in that pic somewhere?
