    That video of Karpov showing up and absolutely murking that little kid in chess is so fucking hilarious to me. I will never stop finding it hilarious. Just the fact that they literally brought Karpov onto this TV program to rip this little boy's soul out of his body just because the kid thought he was good at chess is so artfully, comically brutal. Like they wanted to make an example of him.

    0:51 Yeah, I think I'd have a similar reaction. No blame at all.
    1:06 "The boys held him back!"
    Literally only one of them reached out for him, touching his back, after he leaned forward.
    1:12 "They all new it was coming! ... "They braced him for it!"
    Again, only one of them reached out, after he leaned forward, and touched his back. They didn't know he was going to do that until after he had already done it.
    2:45 "He had primal goblin energy."
    I don't understand this goblin thing...
    3:16 The fuck?
    3:37 "Do you ever feel embarrassed that you're watching react videos on the internet?"
    Not as embarrassed as I'd feel if I was making them. =P
    4:58 Imagine if that kid managed to legitimately beat him. I need to know how the rest of that went.
    8:13 "So this is why we don't do sub battles anymore, huh?"
    I think that's the perfect reason to keep doing them.
    8:48 "Watching chess actually makes me want to play chess."
    Yeah, it does that to me, too. Try watching an anime called Hikaru No Go without wanting to play Go. It's impossible.
    10:07 "But of course, I wasn't performing. He actually did get mated in 2."
    Sure~. We believe you.
    11:25 "What you would not expect is that the blitz game ends up getting so heated that they end up taking it to an actual fight."
    What even for? That makes no sense. So George Carlin's "full contact chess" is real?
