How the fuck did I forget they were Chess Pieces?!? When I googled the word, all I got was crawfish! So I thought: Crawfish! I knew they were ches pieces from the beginning too!!! Gah, it’s the weird compliment that threw me off. Who goes up to someone saying “oh nice carapace you got on” ?

So yes, the explanation was for the word carapace. I can understand the boner part.
