It would be much funnier, I think, if the image were Father Time with a long white beard. We expect a kid not to understand go, but if Father Time can’t…
What are you waiting for? Do it!
When you realize you’ll never understand go!
"Okay! Okay! I’ll give you until you’re 100 to understand go."
Edit: not sure if this is a meme or just amusing and related to Go
I had ChatGPT write a scene from an episode of Seinfeld about Go
Jerry and George are sitting in Monk’s Cafe, discussing the game of Go.]
Jerry: “So, have you ever played Go, George?”
George: “No, what’s that?”
Jerry: “It’s an ancient Chinese board game. It’s like chess, but more complex. I’ve been trying to learn how to play.”
George: “Why would you want to learn that? You’re not even Chinese.”
Jerry: “What does that have to do with anything? It’s a cool game. Plus, it’s supposed to be good for your brain.”
George: “Oh please. If I wanted to exercise my brain, I’d just do a crossword puzzle.”
[Elaine walks in and sits down with them.]
Elaine: “What are you guys talking about?”
Jerry: “Go. It’s this awesome game I’ve been playing.”
Elaine: “Oh yeah, I’ve heard of that. Isn’t that the one where you try to capture territory on the board?”
Jerry: “Exactly. It’s like chess, but more complex.”
George: “Yeah, Jerry’s been trying to convince me to learn how to play. I don’t know, I think it sounds too complicated.”
Elaine: “You know, I actually know a guy who’s really good at Go. He’s from Taiwan, and he’s a master at it.”
Jerry: “Really? Do you think he’d be willing to teach us how to play?”
Elaine: “I don’t know, I could ask him. But be warned, he takes the game very seriously. He might not want to waste his time with amateurs.”
Jerry: “Amateurs? We’re not amateurs. We’re the Kings of Monk’s Cafe.”
[Cut to later in the episode. Jerry, George, Elaine, and the Taiwanese Go master are sitting around a Go board, intensely focused on the game.]
Taiwanese Go master: “You are making a foolish move, Jerry. You are leaving yourself open for an attack.”
Jerry: “Oh yeah? Well, I’m going to capture your stones on the next move.”
Taiwanese Go master: “You are too aggressive. You must learn to be patient and strategic.”
Elaine: “This game is making me hungry. Let’s order some food.”
[The group calls over the waitress and starts discussing their order, completely forgetting about the game.]
Taiwanese Go master: “This is disrespectful. You are not taking the game seriously.”
Jerry: “Oh, lighten up. It’s just a game.”
Taiwanese Go master: “Just a game? Go is more than a game. It is a reflection of life itself.”
[The Taiwanese Go master angrily grabs the board and storms out of the cafe. Jerry, George, and Elaine look at each other, stunned.]
Jerry: “Well, I guess we’re not the Kings of Monk’s Cafe anymore.”
End scene.
Is this a black stone?
Somehow I didn’t locate the key stones there.
Great movie
