I think a lynching is in order for such blasphemy as insulting adam sandler.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

If my options in life were to attend an Adam Sandler film festival, or to be thrown off the summit of the Matterhorn and not stop falling until I arrived in some part of Switzerland where they weren't expecting me, I'd dust off the old lederhosen right now.

In order to do that, we would first have to explain what the Matrix is, and it is abundantly made clear in the film that that's apparently impossible if you haven't seen it yourself (*).
One pill lets you comfily stay in there, the other lets you wake up in a puddle of goo, then it makes floooosh and you get to smell reality's ass .
(*) Except that it basically is a big computer simulation of reality in which all humans are trapped while actually lieing in pods of goo in some post-apocalyptic wasteland controlled by the machines.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

That's a synopsis I can work with. I'll opt for the reality goo. Ta for the help.

What if you do land safely in Switzerland, just to come face to face with the actual Adam Sandler on one of his snowboarding trips?

I'd try again, and opt to be thrown off the Italian side.

Then you got to deal with the pope.

Dealing with the pope shouldn't be too problematic unless you are an underage male
