I think I'd like to learn Sumo. I've got the physique for it, anyway.
Batman/TMNT crossover series?

If you could fly or turn invisible what would you choose?
Good question! I would choose flight. Invisibility would make it too tempting for me to get into trouble.
Especially when my first thought about being invisible was "I could rob banks!"

Depends. Sumo wrestlers have a lot of muscle under all that blubber. Remember, you have to be strong enough to lift up another fat guy.

An intriguing idea. Has it been done before?
And would Killer Croc side with the Turtles? Hmm....

Hey, I put the 'ab' in 'flab'. Not sure I feel comfortable in the diaper though. I mean, I certainly wouldn't want to invite any of my family to a match while wearing that.
And yes, the Batman/TMNT crossover has been done. Twice. O_o One is a dark, gritty, blah blah blah modern Batman. The other is an amalgamation of the 90's Batman: The Animated Series, and the current TMNT cartoon.
I have read the latter...and it's amazing. <3 No complaints, save perhaps that it's only six issues. Haven't the former, and I don't know if I want to, to be honest.
Zombie apocalypse?

Out of those options? How about an ice cream sundae with butterscotch?

Now that would be quite a taunt for a wrestling match.

These have been done to death.
But if something like this happens, I think we can take some good advice from the guy in this Walking Dead parody.
Of course, I'm reminded of a picture I saw on the Internet a while ago. "Zombie apocalypse hits Washington, D.C. Mass starvation ensues."

I think I want it on a T-shirt, actually.
And I watched that twice. Wildly hilarious. Pretty sure I'm going to share it on Facebook too, but the danger is I have a lot of Walking Dead fans as friends...and they might actually get angry.
The curiousness of overeating, then being hungry again three hours later?

Do it! I'm sure some of your Walking Dead fans will find it funny, too.

Curious, indeed! Have you been checked for internal parasites? Or a black hole in the pit of your stomach? I've heard of a case of someone with a black hole in their stomach, and they had to keep constantly eating in order to fill the hole. Otherwise, the hole would then consume them, and then the surrounding area.
... actually, that may have been an idea for a D&D adventure. Never, EVER try to hide a bag of holding by swallowing it.

It is one of the longest words in the English language! It also is a disease related to mining, I believe....

I don't think they found it near as funny as I did...they take their drama srsly. >_>
Have you ever found it funny that they had to come up with a set up rules and parameters for hiding inside a bag of holding?

I wasn't going to type it again! I did recognize the word, and kind of remembered the factoid about it related to lung disease. I had forgotten that it was one f the longest words until I looked it up, though.

Some of those rules are there for a reason. Sometimes that reason is "eh, why not?" Sometimes it's because of the historical aspects of the item (for example, the "vorpal blade" comes from "Alice in Wonderland" in the poem "The Jabberwocky."). And sometimes its because, otherwise, players could easily abuse those rules and unbalance the game. Of course, some of these rules can lead to other abuses. For example, if someone is swallowed by a dragon, their next action could be to put a portable hole inside a bag of holding. If they're going to lose their character, might as well take out the dragon too, right?

This is a logical fallacy. Let's dissect it.
"If a cat were yellow...." Well, yellow cats do exist, so this portion is true.
"... and a badger ate the cheese...." So now we have a conditional modifier. Will a specific badger eat cheese? It is possible, I suppose....
But here is the clincher - the conclusion of your statement.
"... would the wither die?"
Now I think it is safe to assume that we are speaking of a Minecraft scenario, since "the wither" is one of the only "boss" creatures within that game. However, Minecraft does not have badgers. It also does not have cheese. As a result, the second determining factor of your statement is inconclusive. It becomes a logical fallacy.
One of the things about logical fallacies is that, since they cannot be proven, then they automatically default as true. For example, consider this statement: If humans are naturally green, then chocolate is made of meat. The first part of the sentence is the condition - if humans are green. However, when was the last time you saw a green human that was born that way? As a result, that portion of the statement is obviously false. But what about the latter portion of the sentence? Perhaps green humans could produce a type of chocolate that is made of meat. We will never know until we find green humans. As a result, the statement - the logical fallacy - is true.
The same applies here. Since badgers do not exist in the Minecraft game, we have no way of proving the veracity of the conditional modifier. As a result, the statement is true. If Mojang eventually adds both badgers and cheese to the game, then we can revisit this statement and see if this really is the case.
