Signs You're Playing Too Much On-line Chess

You have a 2 million game database all of your own games

You can only type 20 words a min. but 100 chess notations a min.

You think e-mail is for correspondence Chess

your mother learned to play chess just so you would answer her e-mail

You think of your laptop as your travel set

You bought your son a new computer just to teach him how to play chess

You keep praying your chess computer is better than your opponent's

You think Deep blue is the world chess champion

Your on-line rating is 2500 but your USCF rating is just 1500

You change chess servers just to meet new people

You think Gary Kasparov is a chess program

Your opponents always seem to get disconnected when you're one move away from mating them

You unplugged your sound card just so you wouldn't have to hear that annoying beeping noise it makes when some one makes a move

Your best friends are Chessnet and PCchess but you've never met them in person

You refused to play your neighbor a game because he didn't have a computer

You can't play on a 3D chess board any more

You think a chat room is where you meet people to play chess

You can't play on a regular chess board without grabbing your mouse

Very funny, Especially:

"your mother learned to play chess just so you would answer her e-mail"

Because that one is actually true! She even has an account on here.
