I had a good chuckle reading today’s item on The StreathamBrixton Chess Blog , one of my ”musts” with my morning coffee…
”I don’t call you f##k face…”
That was the one and only Nigel Short complaining (also known as ”Nosher” in some English chess clubs, for some obscure reason that I have yet to fathom) about something…One of the great things about English chess is just how gentlemanly people are even while foaming at the mouth, and one of the best things about English chess is how the Streatham blog keeps poking away at sore points within the English Chess Federation, the English chess community and especially about such things as accountability of finances, etc. Until they finally get an answer, that is (which is not as often as one would like, it appears)
Not so long ago the blog was trying to find out about the finances behind some of Nigel Short’s promotional work inside England in recent times, including simuls, lectures, etc. My Canadian readers will no doubt recall that Nigel is often invited to Canada to give such talks and simuls…Nigel is indeed immensely popular in some corners. BUT NOT ALL…
IN anycase, I recommend the readers to take a look at today’s blog. Great fun! Excerpt: ”…in the world according to me people have every right to be offended and while I also feel that everybody else has a corresponding right not to give a damn, in this particular case I do care. It bothers me that Short took umbrage at my use of his nickname not despite but because I had no idea he didn’t like it.”
The author goes on to finish: ”Well, now I know. I think it’s a great shame that Short hates his moniker, but that’s the way it is. From this day forth, then, TheChessPlayerFormerlyKnownAsNosher it shall be”
4.One hell of a stupid fucker. An ugly dumbass prick. SUCH AS: ”Hey fuckface, you got a face like a fuck!”

FUCKFACE:
(definitions provided by The Urban Dictionary)
1. A person who, eloquently speaking, is such a complete and utterly disgrace to mankind. Otherwise, if he is a friend, this is a compliment; SUCH AS: ”I can’t believe you, you are such a fuckface.”
2. A friendly reference to a friend, or a slang term used to describe someone you don’t paticularly care for. SUCH AS: “hey whats up fuckface?” OR “yeah whatever you say, fuckface.”
3. A person with penises for eyes. Very inconvenient, as you can imagine, but perhaps they could be of use in the porn industry.
