Talk:Man vs. Time

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I nominate this article for being pointless. The Man vs. Machine one too, but that's not important right now. Jack Bauer isn't fighting against time. It's not like he can kick it, or it can puncture his spleen or rupture his kidney. No, Jack Bauer is fighting against terrorists, corrupt politicians, madmen, football enthusiasts, et cetera. The fact that he has limited time in which to do shit in does not make time a co-conspirator. It's simply a constraint. Do we say that Jack Bauer's opponents are engaged in a Man vs. Beretta conflict whenever Jack shoots at them? Do we say that Superman is engaged in a Superman vs. Exotic Mineral conflict whenever Lex Luthor throws a phat rock of Kryptonite at him? Am I, at this moment, engaged in a Man vs. Sphincter conflict, warring to keep my staggering flatulence from killing the family pet?
