    Having no knowledge of chess really at all, I’m like 60% sure all those words are made up and it’s just a giant gag the chess community uses to confuse people. They must have some random chess generator that spits out random gibberish that sounds impressive.

      Chess generators would never invent a name as glorious as “grob opening, double grob variation, Coca-Cola gambit”.
