1
Oh, what's the matter?
2
You can't sleep either?
3
Yeah, I know the feeling.
4
Look at us.
5
Two peas in a pod.
6
Unfortunately, I can't deploy a tactical breast with some warm milk for you to suckle upon.
7
These puppies aren't specked into that build.
8
Best I can do is maybe lactate a bit of gamer sups out.
9
so we're gonna have to settle for the next best thing which is a little lullaby which hopefully will serve as a nice aoe and
10
hit us both making us sleepy i see a little bit all right yeah see you soon hello you want to clip this on uh sure
11
oh you're a streamer yes i am a streamer well oh best of luck this is our last game i believe it closes at seven today six actually six there's only half an hour left.
12
This is a clip that blew up a few days ago, but it has a brand spanking new development here where the gentle sir,
13
Fedora Tip, in the video has decided to double down on his cringe embarrassing behavior.
14
So we're gonna give you the whole kit and caboodle here.
15
So this is the genesis.
16
This is where it started.
17
The woman in this video is a streamer.
18
Her name is aka Nimskow on Twitch, but she is a grandmaster in chess.
19
Her name is Nemo, and she's doing this at a convention where people sit down, they play chess, and she's streaming all of it.
20
This is the last contestant of the day.
21
She believes that there's still quite a bit of time left, thinking that it closes at seven.
22
He hits her with the classic, actually, it's six.
23
There's even less time than she thought, but she's more than willing to accommodate and play through this game with him because he waited for it.
24
Take your queen.
25
Oh, shit, I can do that.
26
Yeah.
27
Take your queen.
28
It's hard?
29
Yeah.
30
You're running out of time, Bill.
31
What happens if I run out of time?
32
You lose the game.
33
That's okay.
34
You can use some of mine.
35
I do have to run, though, because I didn't realize the con is closing at six.
36
Oof, that's a big-time blunder right there from this prodigy that stepped up to the plate.
37
He hung his queen out to dry, and she capitalized taking the free piece.
38
He then hits her with the, forgot you could do that.
39
Now, when I first watched this, I assumed he was just like a fan of her and wanted to at least like interact and play a game for fun, despite not being like an active chess player.
40
Him being unaware of how the knight can move, to me, was evidence of that game theory, but turns out that's not the case at all.
41
He actually takes this extremely serious.
42
He's treating this like it's his fucking Super Bowl here.
43
So as you can see he's starting to run out of time.
44
She mentions that saying like hey you're running out of time But you know don't worry you can use some of mine That's time now Okay, I'll pack up while you make your move
45
You know, I started are you sure okay?
46
GGs Zoinks!
47
Eee!
48
Jinkies!
49
The declined handshake in anger.
50
That's fundamentally a rage quit moment there over the board, but very unsportsmanlike.
51
That's a five-yard penalty, no doubt.
52
And again, she was willing to let it go on even though he did lose on time.
53
He was taking oodles of time here coming up with his moves and then still ended up just giving away a free queen.
54
So it's not someone who I think actively plays chess, so I don't know why he's getting so heated about it.
55
It's pretty fucking embarrassing because this isn't high stakes here.
56
This isn't a game of life or death.
57
It's not a goddamn shadow game from Yu-Gi-Oh or anything.
58
It's just supposed to be entertaining and enjoyable and you get to hang out, you play a little chess.
59
She's a grandmaster.
60
You were never going to win.
61
So I don't know why he's getting his ham so steamed about it.
62
Alright.
63
It took forever.
64
Okay.
65
Oh shit, he took the mic.
66
Oh, hello.
67
He took the microphone.
68
It's alright, he forgot about that.
69
So, he wanted to, yeah?
70
I feel like you really wasted my time.
71
Oh, I'm so, so sorry about that.
72
You told me after this person, and then another person comes in.
73
I'm so sorry about that.
74
That guy, you're like, oh, I'm gonna see you at dinner later.
75
Yeah.
76
I was waiting here for like half an hour.
77
Can I...
78
Just rush through it?
79
Well, you're welcome to play out the rest of that game if you want to.
80
I gave you that option.
81
And then here comes the wambulance.
82
So he starts really whining about how she wasted his time.
83
Brother, you're not entitled to her time in the first place, by the way.
84
This is just a little fun setup at the convention.
85
It's not that deep.
86
But anyway, he then accuses her of rushing through the game.
87
even though he lost on time and she made a very generous offer to still play it out just using her time
88
in order to finish that game because he waited a while I guess which again if you were unsatisfied with the wait
89
fucking leave you're not held hostage there he doesn't have the fucking cuffs on him forced to play like what just just go just leave
90
why what it really feels like he wasn't there for chess in the first place it seems like he was there to try and like have this
91
be some kind of pseudo date or something so when someone else was in front of him or someone else that she knew like
92
stepped in to play a quick game it like deeply offended him in that capacity and again i don't think he was
93
actually there for the chess itself because he's like oh i didn't know you could do that what move the night backwards
94
like what the fuck do what so it the whole thing just smells very fucking fishy and it's
95
really weird and his behavior just continues to deteriorate about it um okay i'm so so sorry about it is there
96
a thing i can make up for it i can give you chess.com time and memberships or anything like that yeah if you want one okay take a picture I'm gonna give you a second one as well.
97
And heck, since you're the last person for tonight, take a picture of the third one.
98
So then if you redeem these, you'll just have like three months of free membership.
99
There you go.
100
Take a picture of that one too.
101
Sorry about that.
102
I'm really sorry if you feel like you wasted your time.
103
You did waste me too.
104
Okay.
105
So fuck you, but we have fun if you mention.
106
Okay.
107
The guy there was so like, fuck you, gave me the middle finger.
108
She is going above and beyond to accommodate this loser, being extremely nice, offering him three months of premium membership, again, for a complete non-issue.
109
This guy feels like his time was wasted.
110
Why?
111
Because he chose to wait in that line and then sat down fucking drooling and blue-screening in his brain, blundering his queen, and then just sitting there idly with the orb of confusion in his pocket and then losing on time before surrendering.
112
how is that her fault if you wanted a longer time with her at the chess board or you wanted to like prove yourself fucking play chess
113
learn how the knight moves i guess bro like what why is any of this her fault like she didn't do anything
114
wrong here all of it's streamed by the way so you can see it all there was nothing uh strange or underhanded she didn't
115
go up there and put her hand on this guy's head like no stay back stay back you swine everyone else is coming first you
116
will be the last one today learn your place plebeian like nothing like that happened she didn't disrespect him or anything
117
so but he still feels so slighted that he wraps back around gives her the middle finger and says fuck you while getting
118
to reap the benefits of three months worth of premium membership that she's given him because she's just i guess very nice if anyone's time was wasted, it was hers for having to interact with you for this long.
119
And now, like I said, this blew up a couple days ago, he got clowned on, and then he wanted to give his side of the story.
120
So I read an article that apparently he is now doing his tell-all here about what actually happened.
121
Well, against this person, I have no idea who she is, but there it is.
122
First off, I mean, I was just laughing at how ridiculous the video is because it doesn't offer any context.
123
So there was no line there.
124
I have no idea who this person is.
125
It just says, like, hey, let's play some chess so you can win a prize.
126
Cool.
127
If you want to let people know that everything that's happened bothers you greatly, try and pretend that it doesn't.
128
Well, I actually couldn't stop laughing about the whole thing.
129
People just don't understand the full scope of the situation.
130
I can't help but giggle.
131
I shouldn't.
132
In fact, I shan't.
133
But I can't help but giggle a little bit about this because it doesn't even show the whole context of what happened.
134
So please, let me enlighten you.
135
Let me give you the real scoop here.
136
It's just, like,
137
I always hate that approach from people when they try and like oh i'll just brush this off yeah you guys are all wrong i'm
138
right that kind of attitude it's so fucking like cringing it's awful it elicits the the the yuckies out of me there's
139
such a bad vibe about that approach but anyway he goes on to say that he just hopped in this line because he saw that you could play chess and maybe win a prize he didn't know who she was but was more than willing to play chess and go for that.
140
Big question arises there, why?
141
When you suck this much ass at chess, you hung your queen, like, immediately.
142
I go up, she's with someone, and I have to wait, that's fine, she says you'll come up after this person.
143
That, you know, there's a timer going on, and I see that,
144
so I'm hoping that these matches are going to be short so I can go but they're not the timer runs out it's
145
made completely irrelevant and you know she's just having conversation talking to this person it's going on for a while
146
pal you asked for that same thing by the way when you lost on time she also extended the same courtesy to you like hey look we can keep going
147
we can play out the rest of this game it's not it's not that big a deal so it seems like she was just more than willing to let people play chess with her and try and like enjoy the experience of playing against the Grandmaster.
148
Because that's not something a lot of people ever will get the opportunity to do.
149
It's supposed to be something fun, which is a concept that completely eludes this guy, apparently.
150
He took this as like a call to arms or something, like I must compete for this prize in this chess match.
151
Chess, which is something I don't really understand how the knight moves, but I can do this.
152
I must do this, in fact.
153
So he's complaining about other people getting to play through time like after it runs out when he himself
154
wanted that same that same privilege whatever match ends and then without even acknowledging me at all some other guy comes up
155
in front of me and starts playing with her i do feel a little disrespected at this point because i'm gonna wait for you you know
156
i'm just you know i'm not doing anything wrong i'm just waiting but you're gonna just kind of push me aside that doesn't feel right but i've already waited long enough.
157
I'm waiting for another friend of mine, so might as well.
158
But why though?
159
Why might as well if you're going to be salty about it?
160
Like, what's the point there?
161
You're just letting yourself stew and marinate.
162
So from his story here, his telling of the encounter, someone cut him in line and took his place, his rightful throne there at the board.
163
so now he has to wait even longer well just leave then man like again it's not like you lose anything
164
by by waiting except your time and if your time is something that you don't want to allocate to this then just leave no harm no foul
165
no big deal maybe it's a little upsetting that you got skipped in line when you were really eager to play okay that sucks i guess but that's also not her fault
166
she didn't just like wave someone through like hey fuck this guy uh i want this guy to come up and play instead doesn't sound like that happens it sounds
167
like just some other guy uh went in front of the line in front of this guy and if it is what happens why didn't you say something to
168
the dude why didn't you take it up with the guy why do you take it out on her it's not her fault so why are
169
you going up uh berating her and then saying fuck you giving her the finger storming off that kind of thing why take
170
out all your frustrations on her when she had nothing to do with your place in line and your wasted time that you chose
171
to still continue to sit there and not say anything to the guy who skipped you were you afraid to confront him
172
their match goes i want to say even longer not entirely sure but again timer is completely is disregarded entirely she's like
173
coaching the guy talking to him saying that they're going to meet up after this so i'm thinking you know i'm waiting for you and you're just kind
174
of hanging out with your friend that doesn't feel right it feels like my time's not being appreciated what do you mean your time
175
wasn't being appreciated brother the only one not appreciating your time was yourself if it's that important the the time
176
that you were losing in there you should have left it is not her responsibility to be conscientious of your time of you choosing on your own volition to just sit there and just fucking bake in your own anger.
177
She had a little event.
178
You sit down and play chess.
179
She had people coming in.
180
She was playing chess.
181
You were one of those people.
182
How was she supposed to know that there was some turmoil going on over there with your place in line?
183
And when she did have the unfortunate encounter with you, she was extremely polite and sensitive to your sensitivities around your time.
184
she let you play out the game past time offering to keep it going letting the game continue because you did wait and you were the
185
last person there at the convention so she was more than willing to be accommodating and when you wrapped back around fuming taking out your frustrations
186
on her and getting upset she was extremely apologetic that you felt the way you did and then even went way out of her way offering you three months of premium membership which you should not have gotten under any circumstances,
187
by the way, that was very undeserved, all just because you fucking ordered some French cries here about your wasted time that you wasted yourself.
188
Like, she did nothing wrong, and he is still doubling down on this as though people just didn't understand the full story.
189
Brother, the thing was live-streamed.
190
Everyone knows everything that happened because it was all on stream.
191
You can't even fall back on that, like, missing context excuse.
192
so match finally ends i come up i'm a bit frustrated but i'm trying to keep it together you know we're playing
193
and timer's out and i can tell you know she had a mistake with when the convention is ending so she wants to go timer ends you
194
know what i can tell and i feel like she really just wants me to go i feel like she's already kind of been disrespectful to me before she clearly just wants me to leave now so i get and i go and i am very frustrated right?
195
I'm very upset with the lack of time management, the fact that there was no line, there was no people there, and yet I'm still having to wait for so long.
196
Then don't.
197
No one is forcing you to do that.
198
You even said you don't know who she is.
199
Why are you waiting that long for this then?
200
I don't get it, man.
201
Make it make sense.
202
I don't understand.
203
And again, if you wanted more time there playing chess with her, get better at chess so you can play out a full game without just getting steamrolled.
204
Like, you were never going to win in the first place against a Grandmaster, but maybe you wouldn't have blundered so quickly and had everything go tits up right away.
205
Like, it's very peculiar what this dweeb is even so upset about.
206
And he's still upset about it.
207
He's still frustrated.
208
He is defending his behavior, where, again, I don't think there's any justifications for it.
209
He's just a jerk.
210
Like, he's just mean.
211
He was just very upset at her for nothing.
212
That doesn't change the fact that I was wronged and I was disrespected.
213
No, you were not.
214
You were not wronged.
215
You were not disrespected.
216
She did so much more than any other human being on the planet would have in this situation with treating you with respect and being very apologetic over a complete non-issue, just an issue you've made up in your own noodle.
217
This is absurd, man.
218
What a crazy response to have to this.
219
like it's shocking to me that there's no self-awareness there's no realization that he was in the wrong there was nothing disrespectful that
220
happened here on her end if he was cut in line yeah it's disrespectful why didn't you take it on take it out on the
221
guy who actually disrespected you then if that actually happened why are you targeting her for that she had no control over that mishap she didn't order that guy to cut you in line it's not like it was a sleeper agent she didn't have,
222
you know, her fucking security come in and just like push you to the side so they could play with her and take away your precious time to ruin and disrespect your time at the convention.
223
So why are you taking all that frustration out on her when she did nothing wrong and did everything she could to be respectful and polite and even apologetic even though there was nothing to apologize for in the first place?
224
Wild, man.
225
Truly wild stuff.
226
Anyway, that's really about it.
227
See ya.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
