Wimp

Some guy I'm playing for the first time ignored my "Good luck" message. OK so what? It happens all the time. Into the late stages, and now he's losing. I make a move, call it pawn grabbing. He calls me a wimp. Couple of moves later same comment. I'd love to rip his heart out, but what can I do?

"Sticks and stones can break my bones... " Let it go.

Rip his heart out?

Just beat him and let it go...and of course never play him again.

Trace his IP, then go to the bug his phone line to find out where his mother lives. Then, sneak into her house and wait til she comes home, sneak out and slit her throat. Leave a message on her chest (carved with a screwdriver, of course) saying "Wimp!"

That should teach him

I never wish anyone good luck. Thats like telling him you hope he beats you. Wish him good health, good sex, good job, good mother-in-law, good case of the hemmerhoids, wish him anything good, but never good luck.

There's a German saying: "Glück im Spiel, Pech in der Liebe" - "Good luck in the game, bad luck in love". Presumably it also works the other way round. So wishing your opponent good luck in love would make a lot of sense.

I only do the "good luck" thing with tournament games, because they're more like a formal game with a stranger. Wouldn't dream of doing it to a friend .... but then I can't see the point of calling someone a wimp either, in the context of a chess game at least.
