2. No, I had friends.
And none of them were dorky enough to give a fuck about chess.

3. Oh yeah? Well maybe I haven't voted in my own poll yet
Ever think about that? I'm so cool, and I have so many friends, that I tripped over four of them to look up chess in the dictionary, because I had to make sure I was spelling it correctly. Yeah.

5. How the fuck do you misspell "chess?!"
What'd ya do, ad a silent "f" between the two "s's"?

Everyday, in every way, I respect you less and less.

4. Yeah... I was really good as a kid

I actually played in tournaments, so I played against myself to study certain openings.

I pretty much quit when I got around 16 or so.
