27.  On a date at an expensive French restuarant you can't think of what to talk about while waiting for the food.  Upon realizing that the table cloth is checkered you throw everything to the ground.  Then you set the salt shaker in the middle of the checkered table cloth with knives on the diagonal and forks on the ranks and files to show the movement of the queen.  Next you explain to your date the movement of the rook by removing the knives.  After this, you put the knives back and remove the forks to demonstrate the bishop's movement.  Then you bend all of the silverware to show the knight.  You ignore the furious head waiter and proceed to break the heads off the spoons to show the king's movement.  When you reach out to begin to show the pawn and explain en passant, you get a text saying "left 10 minutes ago plz dont call."  You look to the waiter and say "I dropped my queen!"
