I've had people try to initiate physical confrontations over stupid driving crap like that! The one that happened recently involved me pulling into the road (25mph speed limit) with another vehicle a comfortable distance back. That vehicle was definitely speeding as he closed the distance in record time. He was apparently pissed at being slowed down because he kept his horn going, without pause, for a minute and a half while following so close I'm surprised he didn't hit my bumper. He was also trying to make me stop. I was not going to do that. I'd run a red light if it came to that. I was also close to my house. No way was I going to let him have that information. So, I decided to lead him to the police station. That worked. He sped off.
Chess is fun! I learned in high school and was teamed with one of best friends. He was amazing at it! I'm sure he could have been nationally ranked if he was so inclined. I can count on one hand the number of matches I won against him. Made me better at the game for sure!
For me, the basics are pretty easy. Coming up with a coherent strategy is what takes practice!
