Troy: What is "kibitzing"?
Uh, hm. It means talking out of turn and giving advice to other players. Dictionary.com says:
1. To look on and offer unwanted, usually meddlesome advice to others.
2. To chat; converse.
This makes RC go "Also "kibbitz""
It's from the Yiddish, and comes mostly out of chess, I believe.
This makes NinJ go "Yeah, Yiddish. It sorta means "fraternize"."
