Checkmark Chaser

Someone who does things with the sole intention of getting online clout as a result. This is someone who believes they deserve to be verified on social media platforms even if they have yet to do anything notable.

1. He is not standing right next to another man
2. Anybody else that enters the bathroom will be forced to stand next to another man.

Checkmate

Checkmate is a chess term used when the opponent cannot move their king out of check. Checkmate doesnt just mean that you've simply cornered the enemy king its a declaration that the enemy king is yours.

Checkmate, I win.
