Take me out to the ballgame


For future reference, when we talk about the opposite sex, that being the female, we use baseball terms. It's not your typical "first base, second base, etc." It has nothing to do with that. It has everything to do with everything else though. Here are just a few examples:



Roommate: "So what is your lineup?"

Other Roommate: "Well girl #1 (insert name here) is leading off, but girl #2 is on-deck. I figure girl #1 will stay in the lead-off position until she messes up or girl #2 makes a statement and gets some key hits."

Roommate: "Anybody in the hole?"

Other: "Well there is this one girl in my class. I picked her up off of waivers last week, but she's still on the bench for now. I might put her in the hole later on in the week and give her a chance to hit."

Example #2:

Roommate: "How was your night with so and so?"

Other: "Dude--it was awesome!"

Roommate: "So she got on base then? So what did she hit-- a stand-up double?"

Other: "No dude, she had a triple for sure. It wasn't standing up; she had to slide, but still; she cleared the bases."

Roommate: "Awesome."



Batter's up!
