But the computer is not patronising. The computer does not care.

The programmers are long gone. They do not care.

No one cares.

Did that make you feel better?

Would you feel better if it said, "Better luck next time."

Gee, when someone asks you, "How are you doing today?", I hope you tell him, "Fine thank you, and how are you today?", instead of telling him about your sick aunt and the arthritis in your elbow.

Good game (usually abbreviated to gg) is sometimes used at the end of a human-human internet game. This is used to replace the handshake that would occur over the board. I am not convinced by the expression myself because if I have just lost I may not think it is a good game, especially if I made a bad mistake during the game.

I took a look at your games to see what might be happening to get you so discouraged.

It looks like you resign most of your games after only 3 or 4 moves. I think you should try to hang on a bit longer. Otherwise, it might look like you were deliberately losing.

Now I know why you feel the computer is being sarcastic when it says "Good Game".  I don't really care what you do when you play versus a computer but I don't think it is fair or nice to pull that stuff against real players.
