ur adrenaline rushes for a sec when someone says 'chest' bc it sounds like 'chess'

I knew I was too deep into chess when I was sitting in a chair one day watching people and found myself, without thinking, relating their moves to moves on a chessboard.

 

It was OK until I started yelling at some old woman because she made a stupid step that would lead to checkmate.

If you call the corner piece the 'castle' and the one beside it the 'horse.'

 

Otherwise, it barely counts as chess.

 

And your only strategy is setting up a Q+B battery attacking the f-pawn.

pianist

 

So one day this barkeep finds a genie in a bottle. As his reward the genie offers the barkeep a wish. The barkeep thinks for a few minutes and then tells the genie. A moment later the sounds of a beautiful piano come from the back room. The barkeep opens the door and sees a 12" tall man playing a little piano. The barkeep turns to the genie and says, "You idiot, I said penis.".

Your vehicle gets broken into.  When you get back to it all that remains are the chess materials you left inside.  All other valuables, stolen.

You know you are a chess player when you don't really get hyped or impressed like everybody else when you hear a story about a chess kid (or even a regular kid) checkmating an adult in 8 or so moves, specially when the adult has no previous experience at chess.
