ignoring them is insufficient. you have to at least call them a retard and tell them to f-off, or else they will continue to see you as inferior to them in the dominance hierarchy and will get others to view the situation in the same way

Why are you arguing with me?

 

because you are wrong

How old are you?

 

none of your f-cking business

Well, as someone who has been around for 30 years, the kind of strategies you suggest do not work.

 

ok beta cuck

Claiming dominance doesn’t equal dominance.

 

dude. r u legit f-cking retarded? LMAAAAOOOOO

Using cuss words and diminutive terms on other people doesn’t make you any cooler. And having a very long LMAO doesn’t make me feel attacked. Grow up.

Complaining about him without pushing back isn't making him win any less hard.  

...Except he's not winning.

lol - I'm from the U.S.A., but I don't get called weird. If anything, people look up to me in the fact that I play chess; it is something they usually know little about, but believe it is for the smartest people. If people think you are nerdy or weird for playing chess, then that probably says more about the circle of people you are around than it does about the game of chess.

 

people would prefer to bully you over liking yugioh instead

Yes, because PW:AA is better. Change my mind.

A chess conversation all of a sudden broke out into UFC interview

 

krazykat1975

Give me a message when it breaks into a live cage match!

Wow!. thought for a second "it's time"

I travel and usually play chess on the plane...on my phone, not board. That would be weird!  Some people just watch and ask a few questions. The only thing I hear is people tried during their life and had a hard time learning. Nothing negative.

Yeah,  cuz he already won.  

Explain how he won, because I didn't even see him present an argument.

Yeah. Throw a vinyl board or something with a modern look and people will simply wonder, "what's that game?"

But pull out something that looks like the first emperor's treasure and people will start to wonder... "Sabrina?"

It is of course perfectly reasonable to say that you might have had a dark square on h1, and perhaps your knights were on the c-f files at the time.

Despite my Yugioh-relating avatar, I love the Ace Attorney series too. In fact, I almost went with an Ace Attorney username and avatar. Just to counter your Edgeworth ways though, I still want to randomly say:

Objection!

Keep waiting.

It seems you are unable to come up with an explanation. I don't particularly enjoy wins by default though, so I'll wait a while longer.

No argument was required,  you've yet to make and qualify any claims.  I thought you weren't going to accuse me of being YGNR because it would make you look immature,  the same principles apply here.  Just give it a rest,  young man.  

I'm not accusing you of anything: you've yet to back up your original claim that Utopia247 won the debate. I'm asking you to elaborate on that point of view.
