I came home and whined that I was hungry and there was no supper. (We are both incapable children around here.) Lloyd said we could make frozen pizza, and I whined that it was just a Disk of Food. He said I “had to stop complaining” when “he tried to be helpful”. Grumble, grumble…. we ate the disk. I decided not to “dirty any plates”.
Resourceful children.
Meanwhile, Lloyd was engrossed in a FOUR AND A HALF HOUR ‘CHESS BLITZ’ TOURNAMENT that some super-nerds put on the internet. The play-by-play is hilarious, with all kinds of impassioned color commentary about CHESS. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.
They’ve even got the Hot Chess Girl in her checkerboard suit, making Zoolander faces and looking exotic while she oohs and ahhhs over CHESS. I AM NOT KIDDING.
CHESS.
Brad says
I love that there are jobs like “chess color commentator”. Those people got paid to do that. Probably. I guess they could have volunteered. If they really like chess.
Deborah says
So, he was just watching and not playing?
Lauren says
Just watching. And thankfully not cheering and whooping. Or waving a foam finger around.
Lloyd says
The next minute from here is especially exciting.
Lauren says
“An incredible performance by Nakamorah, guys.”
“How does he get out of these checks? HOW DOES HE GET OUT OF THESE CHECKS??”
Nerd alert!!
Peggy says
I wonder if there is an I Love Lucy commentator? I would be great at that.
And mmmm…….pizza!
Kristi says
Nice “chessboard” jacket that the lady commentator doth be wearing.
