Rock > Paper

I understand that scissors can beat paper and I get how rock can beat scissors. BUT there's no way paper can beat rock. Paper is supposed to wrap itself around rock leaving it immobile?!? Then why can't paper do that to scissors as well? SCREW SCISSORS, WHY CAN'T PAPER DO THIS TO PEOPLE? Why aren't sheets of college-ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they attempt to take notes in class? I'll tell you why...because paper can't beat anybody...a rock would tear paper up in a second. When I play rock/paper/scissors, I always choose rock. Then when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper I punch them in the throat with my already clenched first and say "Oh I'm sorry, I THOUGHT PAPER WOULD PROTECT YOU!!!!!"
