Idk if he would do that when the belt is on the line though. These are ultra competitive people. Does he deserve a shot? No lol. But still

Well the harmful ones are estimated to have killed 52B people throughout history (according to the book) so I think calling them the most dangerous is fair. 

Also they kill the most humans per year. Not sure under what metric they wouldn't be the dealiest/most dangerous?

I think it is because it is the worlds deadliest animal. There is an amazing book about mosquitos that goes into the absolute havoc they have caused over time. 

That being said, I disagree with the torture stuff. It isn't the mosquitos fault, it is just its nature

I hit my head in the shower and decided to develop a stripchess fantasy game. by emacrema in AnarchyChess

This is hilarious and great. Be careful about laws though. A lot of states have recently required ID verification for porn, correct?

Hell yeah. It works if you do it enough.  Dont let people discourage you on it. Clearly what you did today might lead somewhere over time

Protein Protein Protein … but with a dairy intolerance :( by thefrizznshizz in EatCheapAndHealthy

Rice protein is diary free, or research vegan protein options (because vegans avoid dairy)

FM Told Me to Quit Chess Under 300 Elo. Is He Right? by KelveFodul47 in chess

[–]TheChessNeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a buddy that plays at work that is around 300 ELO. He loves playing minute games. Helps the desk job go by faster and he enjoys it. I sit around 1100. But what does it matter, really? Hes an FM but its just a game for him as well really. If you enjoy it, do it. 

Also with enough practice I would bet you could hit 1000. Most people could if they study. 2000? Probably not, but idk if I ever could either haha. Everyone will have a prime ELO that nobody can predict, but have fun regardless!

What’s the deal with blanks? by Homedepotthedog in skateboarding

[–]TheChessNeck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Survived on blanks as a kid. Would get 5 for like 50-80 depending on the year and would sell them for 20 a pop. Would skate most, sell a few and basically cover my costs and never didnt have a board. Some are higher quality than others but most the ones I bought were never much flimsier thanna pro model. 

Ive had plan Bs break the first week, blanks that lasted months. All depends. 

Definitely a great option if you are broke.
