Pfft, what's next? You're going to tell me I'm crazy just cause I hear voices in my head??
1...h5 works quite well in OTB chess. Most people don't prepare against h5 for some reason so you throw your opponent off any opening preparation and hence get a psychological edge.

There are a lot of opening that give away the center at first. If you don't control the center it doesn't mean the game is over.

look at the Caro-Kann for example...
1. e4 c6
black gives way to the center to set up a move two strike with
2. d4 d5
your line:
1. e4 h5?
2. d4 h4?
3. h3 c6
and white is essentially playing a Caro-Kann with down an extra tempo
black already has to deal with white having more tempi in the regular Caro-Kann, let alone just giving him one more...
horrible line...
I hope you change soon...
take up the caro-kann
you will find your game much easier when you aren't down an unnecessary tempo...
