When Your Opponent Never Moves

Me playing chess and wondering why my opponent hasn't made the first move

A blond animated man stands beside a dark-skinned woman, then laughs and drinks while the caption says he is waiting for his chess opponent to move first. The joke is that he misunderstands chess etiquette and expects the opponent to make the opening move, while the audio adds the absurd realization, “Wait a minute. I'm white!” Comedic music and exaggerated laughter make the clip work as a reaction to cluelessness or delayed realization.

Wait a minute. I'm white!
