It's weird how all of your arguments are made by way of strained analogies.

It's not strained, it's ridiculous, which is exactly the point - the analogy points out the ridiculousness of the social contract.

So whoever can come up with the dumbest analogy wins?

If your argument is logically analogous to a situation that is ridiculous, your argument is probably of questionable merit.

Thank you for laying bare one of the more questionable rhetorical techniques employed by ACists - taking a point made by an opponent and downplaying it by regurgitating it via an unflattering analogy.
