You delete your account every week anyway, so I doubt it would make me happy, but I appreciate the effort.
Llama should be all about rebirths. Or was that lama.

True, but it was never "lama"

You beef with me, I'ma even the score equally
Take you on Jerry Springer and beat your @ss legally
I get too blunted off of funny home grown
'Cause when I smoke out, I hit the trees harder than Sonny Bono (Oh no)
Doesn't anyone just take responsibility for their own mistakes nowadays?! A mouse slip isn't RNG, it's a human error caused by not being careful enough. No different to making a bad move because you weren't careful enough considering the position!
Not always true.
One time my dog randomly tried to jump in my lap during a game and hit my arm in such a way that the mouse was knocked onto the floor.
Cat owners probably have it worse.
One time (but not during a game) my dog unplugged my computer entirely, lol.
Who is concerned with mouse slips when chess.com is unplayable.
Sometimes I wish I could tell them what I meant to do. Most of the time it's a pawn going one space instead of 2. I guess that's why I get careless. I guess if they believed me and trusted me they could find a slight move, and then I finish the pawn move and then they finish their move. But it sounds so cheap, I just usually suck it up. I wish there was a button to hit for mouse slip. But it would be tempting for those moves you instantly regret and that cheapens the game. There could be an option to verify moves which add an extra click. The worst is when I drag a piece and then decide to place it back. That gets sketchy. I need to stop dragging pieces. But it makes it more like an actual game.
Just keep playing to see if you can still win. Also, remember, the art of the draw is a valuable tournament skill. So if you can't play to win, play to draw. In 1972, Bobby Fischer defended his title as World Campion against Spassky with 7 wins, 3 losses and 11 draws. So, if you have a mouse slip, it's an opportunity to play with a handicap, maybe still win, if not, develop your skills to force a draw. This is especially effective under time pressure. Often you have to sacrifice all material to force a draw. It also happens when your opponent has too much power. The art of the draw includes how to recognize and not fall into a draw, when you have the power, sometimes you have to let your opponent take material, or under-promote, or not promote, in order not to draw. Forcing a draw is a skill you need. So, then, realizing mouse slips happen to everyone, I never make any excuses, I just say, "Good Game" win, lose, or draw.
Take the free piece lol. Chess is a brutal game. There is no Easter bunny, there is no tooth fairy, and there IS NO take-back option.

Lichess would like to differ.

There are no take-backs on chess.com, or if there are, I am unaware of them. More importantly, there are no take-backs in real-world across the board tournament chess, so why would you want to practice here with something that doesn't exist in the real world? I give take-backs for a while when I teach 5-year-olds to play, but only in the very beginning because even they must soon get used to playing touch chess, and I begin to train them for that right away. Play touch chess always, if you touch your piece, move it, so long as there is a legal move, if you touch your opponent's piece, you must take it if you can. If you must adjust, you must say, "I adjust". Otherwise, don't move pieces unless you mean to move them, and cheerfully accept the consequences of your own play. More power to you and wishing you good games always!
If I mouse slip, then I just play on and see what happens.
Sometimes I'm like "hey, that's better than the move I intended to play!"
I would say that meme is dead but it wasnt dead when you posted it so i'll let it pass.

That happens way more often than it should. Same with golf. I can't count the times I've hit a horrible putt, knowing I missed it by a mile. Walking towards the hole in disbelief that a putting stroke could look so much like a seizure. Only to see that horrible miss curve towards the hole and go in. Had I hit it the way I wanted, it never would have come close.
