Probably a dearth of chess passwords in their database. Try haveibeenpawnd.

That cracked me up

I don't understand. Please help.

haveibeenpawnd -> pawn, as in chess pawn.

The poster was making a pun, replacing pwnd with pawnd, with pawn as the chess piece.

what’s even cooler, he removed the chess punctuation!

Chess. Pawn.

It has pawn in it.

I used to dabble in Chess when I was younger so I feel extra dumb now. Thanks!

Wow, you deserve the comment of the day.

For that comment, bitwize should be knighted.

Or queened!

Or at least promoted.

Thank you for not suggesting he get rooked.
