Thank you, Epic Cheese, for always keeping me at the top of my game by reminding me of professional chess etiquette such as whooshing my sniper and castled king safety winks and the like. Don't forget everyone, chivalry is kept alive by whinnying with every knight hop. I may only be 600 elo but because of you I'm 600 elo with STYLE.

Look at this explosive move, destroying every hopes of his opponent who is left stunned and incredulous by this magnificence ! His opponent will never be able to recover and probably lost a limb in this attack ! Pawn B2-B3

Hikaru never ends a loss by shaking his head "Yes, you outplayed me. Good game." It's always, "what the f just happened??? I think a meteor just hit nearby and distracted my concentration or something! I don't know but it wasn't due to anything I DID!!! I had no control over the outcome!!!"

What? He always says he flubs crap up. This guy is as self critical as they get. He's bitching at himself for screwing up right there. Terrible take.
