Yeah the Dave Chappelle one came way outta right field lol that PIC with Taylor majore Greene idk how to spell it was unexpected or I'm uninformed
I think you mean left field just fyi
I was trying to be funny lol
Why does it matter?
If you are a running batter in baseball (where the term originated), then the ball being thrown from left field seems as if it came out of nowhere.
Damn, all these years and I never realized that's what it literally meant. I always knew what the expression meant figuratively but not its literal origin.
Ok, but it was understood what they meant
