Would I still like Chopin if I wasn't a huge weeb?

I am so omniscient that if there were to be two omnisciences, I would be both.

My favorite thing online is when you get into a prolonged discussion and the other person includes in every post some variant of "this isn't worth my time and I'm not participating in this discussion any more" but they keep coming back because they can't bear not have the last word.

My brother does that in real life.

Every couple of weeks I look at the recommendations youtube gives to a browser with no history, just so that I can feel like killing myself.

Is there anything worse than carefully planning out your burn to clear an opponent's ridiculously full board then getting killed next turn by some haste stuff...
...only to realize that you could have won if you had just burned his face instead.

Panzer vor means Panzer vor.

TL Note: Schneizel just made an illegal move in chess, so it doesn't make sense that he could say checkmate, he might possibly say check but the use of the term here is wrong. The only way this could be a legal move is if this were blitz chess, also known as "Fast Chess". However, in this scene, it is never declared they are playing "Fast Chess", and neither of the players are using clocks to time their turns in the game. (Source: /a/) TL Note 2: The reason why Schneizel did this is because the game was going to turn into a threefold rep. By pulling this illegal move, he is able to gain insight into Zero's personality, and "un-mask" part of him, thus fulfilling his victory condition in a subtle and Schneizel-ish manner. To look at the picture more properly, think of the chess board not as a game but as a battlefield. Zero's other options were to take his King, which would have made him similar to his father, or to call Schneizel out on making an illegal move, which would have made Zero look dumb since "lol rules of war". What Zero chose to do was keep his pride and run away from a free victory. Furthermore, by placing his King behind a pawn instead of any other open tile, Zero symbolically shows cowardice. TL Note 3: Alternatively read like this: [aers | laptop] Well personally I think the symbolism in Schneizel moving his king is that he wants to be buddy-buddy with Zero. And that Zero moving behind the pawn is because he is afraid of Schneizel's advances. (Geass is about yaoi and shit, so the likelihood of aers being correct is somewhere over 9000.) TL Note 4: This scene is interesting because it raises the question of whether or not Schneizel "plays dirty" in bed with Canon. :3

If the Nielsen company sends you a survey thing asking what TV Shows you watch, make sure to write down My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
Every time I've done that they've sent me at least 20 bucks.

Decided that my least favorite way to lose in card games is when I'm playing second in control vs. aggro, draw a bunch of late game cards, mulligan, get more late game cards, and the aggro deck proceeds to get the perfect curve-out play.
