Why do I get to be the weakest of the Polgar sisters ?? :O

Oh well I will just assume you meant to refer to her 14 years old chess period :)
In 1989, at the age of 14, she stunned the chess world by her performance in a tournament in Rome, which became known as the "Sack of Rome". She won the tournament, which included several strong grandmasters, with a score of 8½ out of 9. According to the Chessmetrics rating system, her performance rating was 2735;one of the strongest performances in history by a 14-year-old.

That Gorilla CLEARLY has balls! Or maybe he/she/it doesn't. Who cares?
You cannot see a vulva either! Those could just as well be a proud pair of man-boobs!
He/she's just a bit smaller than the others. I feel sympathy for him/her.
I can identify with him/her! Why are you people so obsessed with sexes anyway?

All I can comment on the gorilla is that he/she has bad taste in alcohol drinks.

Champagne and wine are much nicer to have xD

Says a person who lives in the fourth-best beer-brewing-country in the world.
Do you even have vineyards? Not counting artificial sites*.


*I really suspect some dutchmen or women already did go out of their way and piled up enough sand for a hill to grow wine on. Just because they could.

Fourth best ??

I don't even think we rank that high. United States, China, Germany, Brazil and Japan are the top 5....not the Netherlands.
Neither do we drink as much beer as we export.

Discount Heineken, Grolsch, Amstel, Bavaria and such brands and there is hardly anything left with regards to dutch beer.

Uh... America has a big homebrewing scene and a lot of tiny specialty breweries so there sure is some good beer to be found but the major brands all taste like gassed water (let's give them honorary mentions). China - is China (no, Tsingtao is NOT gute Bier!). So is Japan. Brazilian beer might be good, can't say, haven't tried one yet.
You may know about where the biggest quantity is produced but you have no idea about where the good beer is coming from.

Belgium - Germany - Czech Republic - Poland - Netherlands is my top 5 (yeah, just downgraded). The Danish, British and Irish deserve to be mentioned, too.

Due to the subjectiveness of our topic at hand, I am right and you are wrong.
Sack - err period.

is this thread meant only to showoff how well does sze know the chess history and/or grandmaster playing styles?
And is Aranka among the legendary players because it's "correct" to put at least one girl on the list?
i don't get it.

Completely skipped over this the first time. Can't let this stand.
One of many excellent Dutch beers:

Hertog Jan Dubbel

Triple-malt is even better.

gui=bobby fischer? Genius, and top in his time, but bored by conventional chess and pioneered 360
Timi=falkbeer? pioneer of countergambits
trollussa=reti? at the forefront of postmodernism (though he didnt invent it) and taken too soon (he died at 40). Was the first one to beat Capablanca in 8 years.
piggy=gelfand? Obviously Im flattered by anand, and gnuffone would be my carlsen.

You're naive to presume it was done for that reason.
Most likely szeweningen once again liked mocking the sentiment that women could be equal to men.
I'm pretty sure he found himself quite clever with the line of:

Zsofia Polgar. Me women grandmaster. Women can compete with men! Really! They are better! Are you here guys?...


In reality though the joke is on him since we actually can. When I was still active in it I even did manage to beat a GM in a game. Loek van Wely was his name.
