Law's Theory of Chess References

Law's Theory of Chess References has two main points.

1. After a while, in any argument, debate or discussion, there will inevitably be a reference to a chess piece, chess tactic, chess master, or something Chess like.

“Control of the patent rights will signal checkmate to their actions against us.”

“You don’t have to be a chess master to understand how this simple pyramid scheme will make us all rich. Yes a check, make it out to cash, will be quite acceptable”

“ The Wrestler considered his suplex the best part of his end-game arsenal.”

Note: It is not a Chess reference if you refer to a disreputable rapscallion, as having a ‘Checkered past”

2. In any sporting event, no more than ten minutes into the start of any contest, one or several of the sportscasters will utter some variation of "It's a chess match, with these two coaches, every time they meet in competition."

Note in the final 2 minutes of any NBA or NCAA College Basketball game, any substitution of good rebounders, good outside shooters, taller defenders, versus best free throw percentage shooters, requires that one or more sports commentators speak these words:
"Yet another substitution, Yes, it has become a chess match, " and the Color Commentator again paid homage to Law's Theory of Chess References before the 3rd quarter.

They won because of the Refs

What butt hurt NFL fans say when either their team loses or Tom Brady wins.
Man, that guy is such a sore loser and he claimed that they won because of the Refs. I mean, losing sucks, but come on man, get a grip already!

Targeted Harassment that mirrors the delusions of reference

Is what I actually said, though, it doesn't even take that much to justify killing any of you.
Hym "But the targeted harassment that mirrors the delusions of reference that violates both harassment law and likely school bullying policies and sometimes stallking laws and/or violates the privacy act of 1974. But yes. I would gladly murder your kids over it and CLEARLY other people agree. AND! AND... We're winning the war on weaponized schizophrenia at a ratio of 10 to 1. So, yeah. Entirely avoidable child death. Caused deliberately by YouTube internet pundits whose lives need to end as quickly a humanly possible."
