Haha, against f4 I play d5. 

I'm actually learning the Bird at the moment.

King's Indian or Sicillian, Najdorf Variation. Might try some new stuff out.

Have you heard of the Hobbs gambit, Sprite?

1. f4 g5

Which will give you some fun games, though it probably isn't technically the best response. Usually continued as 2. fxg5 then usually either 2. ... e5 or 2. ... d5

Against 1.e4 my main weapon is the Nimzowitsch defense 1...Nc6 and on occasion the Sicilian Kan.

Against 1.d4 I employ the Chigorin Defense 1...d5  2.c4 Nc6 and on occasion the Dutch Defense

I usually play e5 and sometime Sicilian ( najdorf ) . But i am still finding Sicilian too tricky . If I reply I usually end up with  Ruy Lopez or Italian game.

I'm a fan of the Sicilian Dragon variation against e4, and the Tarrasch against d4.
