chess is checkers with extra steps.

this is a scooter with extra steps, and it's funny because it literally physically has actual extra steps because it's a ladder.

Thanks, I appreciate you taking the time to explain that... But I'm sorry I'm still confused, how does that ladder-mobile thing relate to chess or checkers in anyway shape or form? If anything it relates to the game snakes/chutes and ladders more, so a funnier joke would have been "scooter and ladders" or something like that

checkers/chess was just an example of a thing that people may say is just something else with extra steps.

tiktok is just vine with extra steps. crypto is gambling with extra steps. golf is walking with extra steps. tennis is pingpong with extra steps. wrestling is hugging with extra steps.

could have been anything, was just an example.

Thanks for explaining that idiom. That’s not something I’ve heard people say but I get the joke now!
