Of course, there are a couple of problems. Every so often my interjections are explicits which attracted a few giggles from my classmates that sit in my near proximity. This happens when my rook on h4 is taken by the queen on d8 which can glide magically (and diagonally) across the board.
Another problem is that I have come to the realization that Sarah's Macbook Pro is a cheating bastard. It's very rare when I am in the position to actually win. However, there are five times (out of roughly 65 games) that I have been in such position. An example of this was when I just happened, mostly by accident, put Mr. Pro's king in check by my knight leaving only two possible escape routes, one of which is blocked by my bishop - but then.. nothing. The computer all of a sudden freezes. This isn't a "Oh look, you won. Congratulations." type of thing. There CLEARLY is another way to have his king seek safety. Now, this might cause him to sacrifice his queen, but he clearly has not lost yet. Yet, I get nothing. The pieces just stare back at me like he's saying "You know, I really don't want to play anymore.." I shoot daggers at the screen.
"What an asshole" I say outloud.
The class snickers. My professor looks offended.
