"Yo, you wreck my rig? Not cool, dude. Fess up!"
"Oh, really? Then how'd my PC catch fire?"
"You don't know? Bullshit! You did this on purpose!"
No I didn't bro I don't need to destroy your computer for you to be mad at me
"Whatever, dude. I know you're up to something. Just stay out of my way."
"Alright, listen up. Since you seem to be so clueless, I'm giving you an ultimatum. You find a way to fix my PC or you're out of this apartment."
🤨you can't kick me out it's a lease contract that both of us signed
"Oh, really? Well, let's see who's really behind that contract. Maybe there's some fine print that says I can kick your sorry ass out."
"Fine, if there's no fine print, then how about this? We settle this like men. A duel. If you win, I'll apologize and we'll forget about this.
oh yea sure, what kind of duel? Boxing? Karate? Chess? Poker?
"Chess. I'm a grandmaster, after all. Meet me in the living room tomorrow at 10 PM sharp. No excuses."

🤔I've never played chess before
"Well, looks like you're in for a lesson. I'll make sure you know the rules by the time our duel starts.
"Good. Now go get some books on chess strategy. And start studying, because you're gonna need it. This won't be easy, KenjiSummer."
"Oh, and don't even think about getting a tutor or asking for help. This is your problem, and you're gonna solve it on your own. No excuses."
Sure thing, I love reading books anyways
"Better be, because there's no way you're gonna beat me without putting in the work.
grabs a stack of chess books from the shelf and slams them down on the table "Here, start with these.

sits down at the chessboard, confidently setting up the pieces "Tomorrow night, you better come prepared, KenjiSummer.
realizes something Bro wait... did you say chess board? Like a standard 8x8 grid?
"Of course, I meant a standard chessboard. What, do you think I'm gonna use some weird variant or something? Get with the program, KenjiSummer."
🤨That's what i'm saying, we should play a whole different game, maybe poker
"Poker? Seriously? Do you think you can bluff your way out of this? Sorry, KenjiSummer, but poker won't save you now.
