  • Playing TOO MUCH CHESS.

    What's the worst and/or craziest thing that's ever happened to you from playing TOO MUCH CHESS? If chess isn't really your thing, you can also regale to us tales of what's happened to you from playing TOO MUCH STARCRAFT. If you'd like to discuss the effects of indulging in too much of something else, please first PM first me to ask for permission.

    sometimes i'll play warp speed tetris for like 8-12 hours without a break and then everything i see is all tetris blocks, like there's just tetris blocks falling from the sky... try to close my eyes and fall asleep but i can't stop planning tetris strats in my head

      also, whilst we're on the topic of shutting one's eyes and not being able to get things out of one's sight, i try to shut my eyes but i can't get her out of my sight... just saying..........

          these days i watch TOO MUCH THE OC. probably will stay up till like 8am watching s01 and then sleep through class tmr ^___^

          also drinking too much microbrewed cream soda but that is another issue... actually it's the same issue, i'm doing both at the same time......

          anyway here are some good ryan-marissa quotes from the first two episodes

          marissa: "who are you"
          ryan: "whoever you want me to be"

          OH MY GOD BEST THING EVER!!!

          marissa: "what do you think of newport?"
          ryan: "i think i can get in less trouble where i'm from"
          marissa: "you have no idea"

          ryan: "you listen to punk huh?"
          marissa: "i'm angry..."

          young man i will just hook you up with this amazing video!!!!!! ok &____&

                  Well, "too much" is by definition bad, but how much is "too much"? My personal position would be that any amount of "starcraft" is already "too much", but I admit to bias.

                    Have you ever tried it? Starcraft may be just a 'video game' but it has dominated the strategy genre for around 10 years. It's the chess of video games, simple in concept, but amazingly deep. World championships are held and there are people who make their living playing this one game. Just try it you might find that you actually like it :)

                    How many people watched the last Chess world championship live? Do you think they could pack a building like the last Starcraft World championship?

                      Nope. Don't plan to, either. I said I was biased! Do you have a problem with my bias? Are you, perhaps, feeling a little defensive? A little insecure?

                          You seem to enjoy talking about people's weight, first Jordan now Ed. Calm down.

                            I have a weakness for over indulging in "Age of Empires Conquerors Edition" with some bad cases of carpal tunnel syndrome.

                              I didn't know that "overweight" was a feeling. Is "ugly" a feeling too? I thought they were both conditions, not feelings.

                              I will stipulate my ugliness as a fact, but I don't feel "ugly". Come to think of it, how would or could one feel it?
