That's a croissant, not a Paris brest

Oh I was just thinking chess, but not a specific move within chess.

You've strangely misspelled holy hell

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm out of the loop, can someone catch me up on the holy hell thing?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago

En passant has always been the most obscure chess rule, in online chess it's often reported as cheating. Which resulted in a lot of people saying "google en passant", on an unkown lemmy clone someone realising it's an actual chess move replied, holy hell, and a meme was born.

This took me a couple seconds but I'm happy to report that once it clicked it got an out loud "oh my god" from me irl 🤦‍♀️

You know. I've played chess for like 30 years and I can't recall a single time someone has used en passant against me.

it should be "en passant sur le croissant"

Nice try, but that's definitely not it

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago

Nope, he's right, it's a rather outdated move that I use to use in middle school to piss people off.

Is that a new service from them where you can learn to make French pastry?
