Magnus Carlsen never fails to entertain his fans, even when he is not playing chess. If you are feeling low any time of the day, just visit the world champion’s Twitter account and you’ll find plenty of material to laugh at. His remarkable wit and subtle humor make him so popular, even amongst the non-chess-loving crowd.

You can’t help a laugh after watching his recent Twitter post. The chess genius transformed a simple image into something that gets funnier and funnier each time you see it. It’s a picture of England’s Queen Elizabeth with Bishop and it is quite popular in social media memes. The funny part about the picture is the chessboard design floor on which both Queen and Bishop are standing.

The floor design makes them both a metaphor to the queen and bishop on the chessboard. Hence, you can think about as many queens and bishops scenarios as you can imagine, and all of them account for a perfect joke.

The world number one Chess Grand Master captioned it: “Now thats just a world of trouble”. It’s a very subtle comment and the beauty of it is that it’s left open-ended.
