Spaw's nethers? Perish the thought. Oog.I think that the premise "size doesn't matter" was amply proven by that wretched 1998 Hollywood film of Godzilla in New York (whose stupid motto was "Size DOES Matter").
Thank God, the Japanese have revived the real Godzilla with this year's release, "Godzilla 2000". Hopefully, Hollywood will never get their corrupted paws on the big green lizard again! Godzilla RULES!!! Not Oasis, Godzilla.
We had a siamese cat who could rout virtually anything on 4 legs. He demolished all the local cats and dogs, if they dared to step on our property. One day, though, am embittered black labrador named Inky came visiting. The dog had turned rather mean, because his owner was beating him. It so happened that Simba (the cat) had beaten up Inky when he was half-grown, but now Inky was full grown and not to be trifled with.
They encountered each other around a bush and Simba attacked instantly, flying into Inky's face. The big dog gave a "whoof" of surprise and shook his head violently, throwing the cat off, and then went for him. Simba was smart. It took him about a quarter of a second to realize that this particular dog would kill him, and no amount of pain or superficial damage to the dog would make any difference. The cat simply vanished into the shrubbery, so fast that Inky's jaws fell on empty air. Inky flew around the house about 3 times, beating through the bushes, but he couldn't find Simba anywhere, so he left.
That was the one and only time I saw Simba run away from anything.
Sometimes size does matter, but what really matters the most is spirit and determination. In this case, both combatants had plenty of that, so the smaller one had to back off to save himself.
