I struck out "

background
explanations/exclamations of signature-quotes
striking out is a term used for baseball games. this practically
requires no explanation since most Americans(and quite a few
non-Americans) are familiar with baseball, but I know that not
everybody on this planet is familiar with it(not even everybody in this
country is familiar with it) .for whoever is completely unfamiliar with
baseball or doesn't even know what baseball is, striking out is when
one swings the bat
and misses the ball thrown by the pitcher 3 times or hits the ball with
the bat a certain way twice(the term used for that is foul ball) and
then missing the ball a third time(which is frequently thought of as a
"disgrace" in this culture, bordering on cult-like behavior. so
sometimes when that happens, he or she who strikes out too many times
is brainwashed to believe that he or she is a "disgrace to society", a
"social pariah" of this culture. I have done that a number of times
when I was growing up. sometimes I wonder how that has affected my
social status or position in life?
