One of the kings could still pay the bishop, so still not checkmate.

The official answer is that you cannot promote a pawn to a king, so this situation would never arise. However, this is Anarchy Chess, so let's set that aside.
If this situation did happen, and it is Black's turn, it is not checkmate, because Black's bishop takes the queen. It could not be White's turn, because there is no way to arrive at this board state on Black's turn without one or both kings being in check at the beginning of the turn, and so Black's move would have needed to remove their king from check.
Therefore, this board state is not checkmate.
Period flow can happen without warning, and even if there is a warning, it's not usually something that girls are comfortable enough with to want to announce the reason in front of a classroom.
Go for it anyway. If this girl is so shallow to reject someone for something stupid like that, she's not worth it and Anon dodged a bullet.
For union dues, I'll sometimes bring up strikes. People know that when unions strike, they aren't working, and when they aren't working, they aren't getting paid. What they don't realize is that most unions pay the employees during strikes, and that money has to come from somewhere.
This is a terrible position to take. Anyone can be educated.
The thing is, nobody likes being flat-out told they're wrong, and with the way arguments on the internet go, that's all that will ever happen.
Most of my friends are heavily conservative, but I've learned how to have productive conversations with them about issues, and it's almost always "This is how it benefits you if it were different."
It's difficult sometimes, but it's worth doing, and it's important to understand that the guy you're talking to isn't the enemy. He's just another dude.
"Sunwise", and for the exact same reason.
Clocks go clockwise because their predecessors did. What were their predecessors?
Sundials.
How does the shadow go around a sundial? Well, sunwise, of course.
Counterclockwise, as said in another comment, was "widdershins", from a Middle Low German phrase meaning "against the way".
This doesn't strike me as odd in the slightest. When you go out into a crowded room with a lot of conversations going on, your brain will filter out a lot of it, but there is one thing you'll always always always hear, and that's your name. Your 'name' includes anything used to refer to you, like nicknames or pronouns.
Your brain develops special circuitry to recognize your name, and it strengthens with use. It's almost like a reflex.
I don't know how long you've gone by "Eshe," but it will be a long time before your brain develops those same shortcuts, if it ever does, and the old ones may never go away entirely.
