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?

kernelle@0d.gs · 10 pts · 2y (2 replies)

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.

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Nope, he's right, it's a rather outdated move that I use to use in middle school to piss people off.

ledtasso@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 2y

I'm not sure if this counts, since all French just sounds to me like it rhymes with "croissant" ?

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
