"MWUH-HAHA! You merely delay the inevitable!"

"You say that like it's a bad thing."

"I... What?"

"Sure, if you have a chore or something you have to do soon, that's a great point. Get it over with, have the rest of your day free. But if I can prolong my enjoyment of something, or put off an outcome that's especially bad, how is 'merely delay the inevitable' an argument against further delay? Delaying the inevitable sounds fantastic under those circumstances."

"I was mostly expressing the confidence I have in my success—which is inevitable—while taunting you. 'My success is inevitable' was the real point."

"And yet you've made me consider the many benefits of delaying that supposed inevitability! I'd say your bravado has backfired rather severely!"

"Ridiculous. My victory remains inevitable!"

"Actually, while we were talking, I got a message out to my friends. Your plans should be thwarted right about... Now."

"CURSES!"
