The romantic sex panties videosinternet can be bad — think scams, misinformation, and abuse. The internet can be good — think folks rallying support for a local business or finding their life partner. But sometimes the internet can also be downright silly.
That's the case with the latest trending discussion on X. People are fighting over whether 100 people could beat up a gorilla. It's reminiscent of a different, more pure time online — the era of Buzzfeed lists and Weird Twitter — where people would frequently argue over dumb, silly hypotheticals. In fact, outlandish "who would win" arguments are kind of a staple of the internet.
The gorilla versus 100 people argument started with a post from @DreamChasnMike on X, who said he thought it was possible but "everybody just gotta be dedicated to the shit."

Now, could 100 men actually take down a gorilla? It depends. Rolling Stone, hilariously, called up a number of primate experts, and the consensus seemed to be that @DreamChasnMike's original idea of a sign that read "IF U AINT READY TO D I E DONT SIGN UP" is correct. In short, 100 people sans weapons would have to overtake the gorilla as one big mass, despite casualties. In other words, dudes would have to keep going after watching their compatriots get torn apart.
Luckily, this is just a silly internet argument and nobody actually has to fight a gorilla.
