  • The sport is cricket, and in context it meant that the West Indies team were tired and bowling (pitching, in baseball terms) poorly, and the English batters were taking advantage to score runs. So the English batters were dominant, and they were milking the opportunity.

    But it was a fucking funny sentence

  • Yeah, I've had that problem. One of the nice things about Reddit was r/tallfashion -- acc had links to stuff with decent waist and inside leg. Have found some women's trousers pretty good for that too.

  • What's interesting is that this precise scenario happened in the 1910s in the UK (given that at the time the house of lords was the highest court in the country as well as the upper legislative chamber). Lloyd George called an election on the subject, and negotiated with the king that if the lords didn't vote for a reduction in their powers, he would create a massive influx of Liberal peers.

    Interesting episode in history.
