Bones vs Bones

Here are some amusing comments from an Internet discussion on who would win, Leonard "Bones" McCoy or Temperance "Bones" Brennan. I chuckled.

Bones, of course.


Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor not a fighter.

 

One of them has Romulan ale and Saurian brandy.  The other has breasts.  Tough choice but I still say "Bones".

 

One Bones is a wannabe cop who feeds flesh-eating beetles on corpses of the recently dead, before turning said corpses over to their families for burial. (Fox TV show)

The other has a pill that regrows kidneys. (Star Trek Voyage Home) He wins.

 


Bones has a cuter sidekick than Bones.

 


Okay, so Bones is a doctor, not a prizefighter. Still, he's presumably had hand-to-hand combat training, and he's held his own in many a fracas. He also knows how to wield a firearm.

Bones is also a brilliant surgeon. He was (or will be?) perhaps the most highly accomplished medical officers in Starfleet. With just a few bag of thermoconcrete, he can practically cure a rainy day.

Bones, on the other hand, has tantalizing eyes and porcelain skin. She's smokingly hot.

Tough call.
