Sounds challenging!  I'd probably slip and fall and hit my head on the tile and suffer brain damage and not be able to play chess very well at all.  Wait.  Maybe that's already happened.  That would explain a lot of my recent games.

when you actually tell your opponent they had a chance to make a really great move, and then they end up making that move later in the game.

1399. When you're in a traffic jam, then suddenly the left lane opens in front of you. You increase speed and yell "Yes! I'm on an open file!"

1401. If you move out of the way instead of passing the basketball back after you opponent scores a three pointer, you might play chess too much.

1405. You think "God Save The Queen" is a song about chess

1406. You think that the countries who has a king and/or a queen have                  named royal people after the chess pieces.

1407. You are a big fan of Queen ( Freddie Mercury, Roger Taylor, Brian             May, and John Deacon ) Mainly because they named their band                 after the strongest chess piece.

1408. If you meet one of members of Queen, you would ask if Queen                 started as Pawn.

1409. Your absolute favorite songs by Queen are White Queen, The March           of the Black Queen and Killer Queen and you think that the song               My Fairy King is about fairy chess.

1410.  Besides Queen your favorit music is rook'n rool.

1411. Your favorit dance is square dance.

1413. You think that your (other) favorite band, should also have a chess              piece named after it. Just like Queen have.

You and a friend hitchhike all the way across the U.S. to spend one single afternoon at the Maryhill Museum of Art, out in the wilds of Washington state, just because you heard about the museum's Amazing extensive permanent exhibit of unusual, beautifully carved chess sets, from all around the world and from all eras -- some dating back to the Middle Ages. 

P.S. I happen to know it's "amazing," because I've been there myself... ok, we didn't actually "hitchike" to get there, which just proves I don't play chess too much.
