en passant on croissant
problem solved
Ah fuck, is that fr*nch?
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.
I feel like it's a rule made up by someone who didn't agree with the double step rule
"Oh, your pawn can do a double step? Well, my pawn can capture yours anyways!"
Chess on a croissant?
google en passant
Sacré bleu!
Oh I was just thinking chess, but not a specific move within chess.
You've strangely misspelled holy hell
I'm out of the loop, can someone catch me up on the holy hell thing?
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.

Chess on French pastry?
En passant on a croissant
Nice try, but that's definitely not it
Nope, he's right, it's a rather outdated move that I use to use in middle school to piss people off.

Fun fact: the French call it pastry from Vienna (viennoiserie)

Holy hell.
I'm not sure if this counts, since all French just sounds to me like it rhymes with "croissant" ?
Holy pastry!
Where did the other white piece go?
Google en-passant
I'm not gonna say the thing, but I did google it and learned something I didn't know.
It's stale mate.
But what's the point of trading pieces? Now B2 just gonna take A3, or am I missing something?
Chess spread on crab bread?
An peasant on the crescent

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !angryupvote@sh.itjust.works
