Antagonists losing a fight because they are having too much fun and keep letting the protagonist back up

The Shinobi from John Wick: They had John several times, but kept letting him take a second and get back up until John knocks them down for the count

Lord Rathbone from Shanghai Knights: Kept beating Jackie's character, disarming him, but threw the sword back saying "one more" to fight again until Jackie just stab him.

How often do you shop for clothes online?

This is something I have never gotten in to. I always to prefer to be able to try it on, see the fit and feel the material before buying. I don't know enough about online return policies for clothes and was always hesitant to explore online shopping for clothes. Is this a general guy thing, or just me?

WYR Which Smite would you rather receive

You have offended a god, but they are a merciful God, so they give you four smite options to choose from:

Cancer: You will immediately get cancer, no telling what kind of how survivable it might be

Lose a bone: One of your bones will instantly disappear. It could be any bone, the tip of your pinky or your skull.

Deaf or Blind: You will either become deaf, or blind

Reverse digestion: You will now need to eat by shoving food up your butt, and poop out of your mouth.

[WP] Just like Groundhog day, you lived the same day over and over again, except it wasn't just you, everyone on earth shared it too. The loop has finally been broken, and time flows normally again. After the hundreds of years of looping, there have been some interesting effects on society.

Would you rather live as long as you want, or repeat your life as many times as you want.

If you live as long as you want, you are functionally immortal. Your will survive any injury or illness without any long lasting negative effects. You can also choose when to die, so if you only want to live to be 100, or 1000, or if you want to ride it out till the heat death of the universe, you can clock out whenever you want. You would also have an ability to escape places where you might be trapped forever if you accidently end up at the bottom of the ocean or stranded in space or something.

If you repeat your life, every time you die, you will be reborn at the beginning of your life. Your memories will only come back gradually, so you don't need to remember the trauma of childbirth or infancy again. You will get all your memories of all your previous lives, and make any changes to your life you are capable of. You can also live on an autopilot mode where you just sit back and let life happen just like it had in a previous life, so you could get the same children and everything else, then start making changes after that point if you wish.

I am trying to remove any of the potential negative consequences for these options, so assume there is a solution for unintended consequences I didn't foresee too. Judge these choices mostly on the positives, not negatives.

The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. Great cast, great subject matter, great director, a mediocre film. Even if you like the film, which is fine if you do, you have to admit it didn't reach the acclaim or popularity you would expect from the combination of the cast, subject and director it had.
