I love it when my opponents are bored by my opening choice. It almost always means they aren't interested enough to work out what's going on.

OMG it's like we're the same person lol
Locked positions. Opponents who insist on them. Zzzzzzz I know it's NOT them avoiding playing, but it just feels like they're playing to avoid playing.
I don't like playing the Scandinavian and kings pawn game as black either, those 2 responses to 1. e4 don't fit my style, what a concidence!
Confused about why there's so much hate for the English here. Perhaps it's just that people are playing 1.c4 e5 without thinking...It makes most sense to try to aim for similar positions to what you play against 1.d4, which for most people would then be 1.c4 Nf6 2.Nc3 e6, which could lead to the Mikenas Attack which is far from boring, or else the Neo-Catalan against which you can take a Reversed Benoni setup. Given the great options available I'm not sure why everyone automatically plays the Reversed Sicilian.
@OliverY23 @DevilishApples123 @factorysettings @JimmyL101 there is nothing boring about these positions after 1.c4 Nf6:
The Scandinavian for me.
