    We played a round of chess once, the most stupid idea we had.

    A round of chess once, back in high school, to kill time.

    We were so bored, sat in the library, like the school library, or study rooms, whatever, that had small board games around as well, if you wanted to.

    And we had, like, chess on, like, in-table chess to play.

    And we had a session where the first player to lose both horses was the loser, because horses was the source of all meat.

    That's how dumb we were back then, and, like, imaginative we were back then.

    Oh, aren't they called horses in English?

    Oh, yeah, I'm fully going off of Swedish.

    It might even be Swedish, like, casual speech.

    I don't actually know the official piece, name, piece, piece names for the thingies.

    Horse is knight, Swedish.

    But then what is, what is the piece that only goes diagonal?

    Like, in between the horse, the knight, sorry.

    In between the knight and the either king or queen.

    What's that called?

    Bishop.

    Oh, yeah, now that you mention it, that is very true.

    Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

    Rook, knight, bishop, king, queen, pod.

    Rook.

    Is rook tower?

    Oh, shit.

    Really?

    No, no, no, no, no.

    Rook is tower.

    Tower, man.

    Lore.

    Listen, if you wanna, if you wanna sweet it up, tower, man.

    Tower is badass.

    Castle is also Rook.

    I can get behind that.
