Finally got the fool's mate

Always thought I'd never actually manage to strike this off my "chess bucket list" XD Albeit a casual, classical game..I'll take what I get. lichess.org/dyDmDZrw

Was the user's first ever game on Lichess too, or well, on this ID at least. I feel dirty.
Well, you probably did him a favor. So you can feel "clean" again, I guess.
I would never have remembered.
It's the absolute pinnacle of a non-event.
I've successfully executed a similarish mate that takes about 6-8 moves in countless bullet games against people in their 2000s lol

The only difference mainly is that it is a sort of revealed mate due to a piece blocking it that makes a hard to ignore move when it is revealed... so even higher level players miss it in quick time settings
