Let's see........ if you can add more please do I was going to make a post (edited to Stuff)ChessPlayersSay but then I thought this would be even better

-So, like, are you really great at chess

-Have you been to, like, tons and tons of tournaments

-Have you ever played timed chess

-Do you know the name of like, all the best chess players in the history of chess

-Are you paranoid about having your chess pieces perfectly centered in each square

-What if I copied the exact same moves you made for the entire game, what would happen

-Can I promote my pawn to a pawn, or can I promote it to a king to have two kings

-Is it at all possible to promote all my pawns to queens

-How does my castle move

-Is that a bishop or a knight... oh it's a rook okay

-(5 seconds later) what's this piece

-Why can this bishop only move on white squares and that one only moves on black squares

-Can the horse move there, can it move there, there, there

-Can you teach me how to get really good at chess

-Can you teach me how to checkmate someone in 5 moves

-Want me to teach you Fool's Mate

-Why can't the pawn take there

-I thought this piece was the king

-Why did you move the king and rook at the same time, you didn't tell me you could do that, that's not fair move it back

-Everyone's better at chess than me

-Mind if I watch your game, I don't want to play, I just want to watch, I'm just watching

-Haha it looks like checkers

-I bet you'd be a master at checkers

Classic.

The Fault In Our Stars is a great movie. Just throwing that out there. Cried so many times but it was still uplifting.

It was amazing, wasn't it. Did you read the book first?

NO I DIDN'T... and I will never forgive myself for watching the movie adaptation before reading the book! (Like I did with Hunger Games, etc. Not that I'm even remotely comparing TFIOS to Hunger Games. Two totally different stories.)

I'd still say it's definitely worth a read even though you've already seen the movie. There were some parts seemed like they only made sense because I've read it. I first read it about six months ago, and then re-read it two weeks ago so it was fresh in my mind when I went to see it. I'd read it and then see the movie again if I were you. Also it was great to see it with someone who has also read the book, so I didn't have to stop watching and constantly explain things.

You're a smart cookie.

She had the same idea too… didn't want to see it with her friends who wouldn't understand, and couldn't think who to see it with… then along comes me and asks her if she'd like to see it with me.

Had a great night.

Literary minded people are my kinda people! PS I heard from a little bird that guys don't cry. Well, did you cry watching the movie? Or did she cry?

I took tissues, fully expecting that both of us would cry. I didn't, but she shed a little tear, and I was going to offer her a tissue and a shoulder to cry on, but I think she was a bit embarrassed for me to see her crying, and she snuck her own tissues out before I even noticed that she was.

Well you had the good intentions to cry and I think girls, speaking as one, really love a shoulder to try on. hehe.

I do cry (sometimes) and I can get really emotional about stories like that, having been through something similar myself when I was younger. I think having just read the book again and knowing what happens and when, together with being super happy to be enjoying the evening with a really really nice girl who I like a lot, meant that there was no way I was going to cry that night.

Lol ummm did you actually try?! The Pokémon Alakazam can bend spoons with his psychic powers so I'm guessing he could bend forks too?

About the long quote... well I'm sure it could get pretty lenghty. There's a webpage that shows 1,000,000 digits of pi and that page is obviously super long. It's pretty crazy.

So at some point that quote there would take up "1 page" of comments, if that's how this website is set up, or maybe after a certain number of comments it starts a new page no matter how long the quote is. IDK. Hope that made sense.

Just be careful you're not spamming it .__. Also, the amount of scrolling could, um, annoy people.

You have to be a hard-core nerd to know who the Spoon Bending Boy is (you have to look in the credits to know the character name) but it is part of a classic movie. Pokemon I would argue is also nerdy, though I've never seen anything Pokemon related.
