Boy, do I hate to play those!
They walk slow around the table, think slow, stare at the balls for a long time, make around 15-20 or so preliminary strokes...not to even mention extremely long racking times and the occasional cell phone usage.
You would think that we're in some high cash tournament with a lot of sharking, but NO. We just play for fun. But where's the fun when you play such slow guys? Do they enjoy playing like that? They are so boring to watch that even their mother wouldn't support them in a competition.
Me and my friend started calling them "chess players". Yesterday when one guy was staring at the balls for quite some time I even shouted "Bishop to E-4". No one found it funny but me and the friend. All the others seem to think it is normal to spend like 2 minutes per shot.
And that was 9ball which is supposed to be a fast game!
