I don't even know at this point! The bank is banging on my door to evict me, society is collapsing, the Tussle Associations are making even less sense, I DO NOT EVEN KNOW AT THIS POINT!
Lets judge them based on
Real World Application
Convenience
Threat
and off course
Storage Capacity
So. Clouds VS Clouds! Lets do this!
Clouds
Some say it is the ocean attacking from above, others say it is the planet's natural cycle, some even say it is where Angels live, probably do all sorts of nasty things. I say it is Poseidon's Wrath! But how do our fluffy white frenemies fair in the ring?
Real World Application: 10/10 They bring the rain. Rain is needed for everything. Crops, Rivers, Instagram Photos, Video Clips, turning Athenian pavements into death traps, you name it!
Convenience: 5/10 On one side, they provide EXCELLENT excuses for one to stay at home, drink tea and not engage in social annoyances. On the other hand, they force you to stay at home and not be outside to enjoy all the other amazing things, like the OCEAN.
Threat: 7/10 OH SURE ITS A HARMLESS CLOUD they all say, until thunder and lightning begins, and water keeps pouring down, and the ocean rises to claim its victims, and the flood arrives. Be afraid of the clouds. Be -very- afraid of the clouds.
Storage Capacity: 9/10 Now here is an interesting fact for you. Clouds are fucking pimps. According to this article, even a modest cloud can carry the mass of a 747 Jet in water. That is pretty amazing if you come to think of it. And yet, they appear to be SO damn fluffy.

Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is the on demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage and computing power, without direct active management by the user. The term is generally used to describe data centers available to many users over the Internet. Large clouds, predominant today, often have functions distributed over multiple locations from central servers. If the connection to the user is relatively close, it may be designated an edge server.
Clouds may be limited to a single organization (enterprise clouds,) be available to many organizations (public cloud,) or a combination of both (hybrid cloud.) The largest public cloud is Amazon AWS.
Don't believe me? Ask Wikipe...I mean, I totally know I am a student of an IT university ok?
But will this innovative means of sharing system resources innovate in the ring? LET US FIND OUT
Real World Application: 9/10 Now, sure, it does not offer something set in stone, but one would be a fool to argue against the application of Cloud Computing. Companies use it, people use it, even farmers use it. Why not a 10? Because ultimately it is not anything you can perceive with your natural senses.
Convenience: 10/10 The very fact that one can store everything he wants to and have them accessible anywhere, anytime, is the most convenient thing in the universe, in this: the era of the Internet
Threat: 5/10 Admittedly though the risks are there, and they are very real (identity theft, data tampering etc) the majority of us, wont lose our lives or anything of world shattering importance if we lose our clouds. You can always make more Instagram photos
Storage Capacity: 0/10 THE BIG TWIST. Yes, clouds can (and probably already store) data in the size of petabytes, hell, they are virtually unlimited in their storage capacity, but tell me FELLOW IT NERDS. HOW MUCH DOES THAT INFO WEIGH? NOTHING. IT HAS 0 MASS. It pains me, but it is true, and that is why it is in the article
And The Winner Is:

Clouds!
NO BAMBOOZLE THIS TIME FOLKS!
The white puffy murder floofs carry with them enough water to drown your entire family (literally) and it is only by their mercy that they decide to spray it slowly instead of creating majestic sky waterfalls (though I would love that). The lifeblood of our earth and the leading cause of Rain, without a doubt, clouds summon thunder, rain, flood and would kick out all other opposition!
