A mate of honour is the male equivalent to the classical maid of honour. The bride will often choose to forego the common maid of honour-bridesmaid combo for a less conventional male 'mate of honour' due to a lack of close female friends or an unbreakable bond with her male best friend. The 'mate of honour' will have responsibilities similar to that of a maid of honour including: planning of the infamous hen party, bridal shower and the obligatory catching of the bouquet. The 'mate of honour' signifies clear progress in the battle towards gender equality in all areas of life.
Tova: Joe, will you be my mate of honour to avoid a potential massacre amongst my female friends, and of course because I love you dearly?
Joe: I would be honoured to, what colour dress should I wear?

Get the Mate of Honourmug. by Darius McCloud December 13, 2018
Get the meat-matemug. A chess trap that only complete morons fall for.
The game is infamous for being the "two move checkmate".
1. f3 e5 (f3 is already a rather useless opening, as no pieces are developed with its aid)
2. g4 Qh4#
White is mated in two moves.
This trap almost never occurrs in actual play, as everyone who has even looked at a chess board knows how obvious this trap is.
A similar trap is the Scholar's mate (which is Black's fastest loss) which goes as follows:
1. e4 e5
2. Bc4 Nc6 (Bishop's Opening)
3. Qh5 Nf6??? (Nf6 is a blunder to rule all blunders)
4. Qxf7#
Black is checkmated.
Again, this trap almost never occurs in regular play.
Most chess courses warn about these traps very early on, so anyone who actually falls for them deserves a dunce hat.

Bob: I played chess with my son, Bob Jr. I played Fool's Mate and he took it hook line and sinker.
Alice: Heh, funny. I started hanging out with the jocks in high school after a nerd humiliated me with the Scholar's mate.
