 | Hall’s Rule of Social Order – #267 |
There is a baseball metaphor for everything.
Name a topic and I bet there’s a common baseball related metaphor already. If there’s not, I bet it’s not hard to come up with one that’s easy to understand.
Some examples:
Hard times – “Sometimes life throws you a curve ball”
Sex – “I just got to first base with my girlfriend”
Work – “I think I just hit a home run at work today”
Life outlook – “I think we’re in the home stretch”
Money / Luck – “We struck out at the casino tonight”
