Talk:Fabuloso Friday 2/Fabuloso Chess/Anti-intellectualism

From zefrank

May I suggest the possiblity that sport racers don't play chess? I think that we should just pull out a kick-ass powermove on Ze's King, and steal his queen and rooks. Ohhhhh Yeah

(Seriously, who expects a collarborative chess game to go well? It's nice that Ze's building up the social movement thingamabob, but what the hell?)

A New Hope

I do hereby represent what I feel are the vast majority of Sports Racers, myself included, who not only are a bit dumbfounded by these outrageous mathematical chess move strategies, but also really do not care a whole lot. That said, I do declare:

All Sports Racer Serious-Chess Folk -

 Go Crazy

The Rest of Us Sports Racer Folks - Who gives a gosh darn? Forget this nonsense if learning what 'A32(X)Pawn' means. Enjoy the show.

Here, here.

Power Moves

• bring some red pieces and move 'em in from the side
• Swipe board with hand. Run away crying.
• There's no algebraic notation for throwing the board in frustration

• make Ze blink (gasp) and remove his king at that precise moment
• We do not recognize the right to royalty of Ze's king and therefore our king shall not play chess with a mere pawn that is trying to pass himself pass as a king. Checkmate.

• wave a letter from citibank in front of ze's face that states we've just been approved for a $100k worth of credit and have to go pick it up now.

Hard Charging Moves

• Complain that neither the board, pieces, or game itself have been approved by any international chess organization (as the LOA is clearly a universal entity), then refuse to play on the grounds that it will negatively affect your chess rating. - thebreadline
• Let's lose on purpose as quickly as possible. -thejackhook
• Grab all his pawns while he's not looking and hide them, and when he asks where they are, tell him if any of our pieces are threatened, we are allowed to do whatever we want under the new 'Patriot Move'.
• The game of chess suggests that awesomeness can be confined to mere three dimensional time-space and such a condition will inadvertently hinder my complex strategy. Further, the petroleum based plastic pieces contribute to global warming and big oil, who, in a recent government contract, currently gained ownership of every third male child named Bob. – ZeRyan

Ingenious comic twists...

Actually the power moves are quite ingenious too... The section titles are all quite arbitrary :)

• Bring in a Duckie Pawn which is invincible, and can go anywhere in the field (as suggested by CeruleanNinja in the discussion....)
• d4 Pawn Phase shift (see image)
• Bring in PacMan
