    When I was a kid, I always opened with knight to h3, and one time my cousin and sister spent 3 hours unaware that no one can win when only the kings are left, so yes, I’ve seen and played dumber games.

      I got one better. When I was a kid, I 'invented' my own opening. e4 Bd3 Qf3 Ne2 O-O. Then pushed the H pawn for good measure. Didn't want to get back ranked, after all. Played it every single game. It didn't work out well. I also remember someone stalemated me, and I informed them it was a draw, and they were like "Whatever, I won. I have more pieces."
