During lunch today, some of my 8th grade female students said this to me, "Baseball 1, 2, 3 (motioning bases), Eddie, love love (motioning a heart)?" There was a lot of giggling and then they all looked at me with faces covered in anticipation. They also made motions about which bases meant what.
From this I gathered that they were asking me how many bases I had gone with Eddie!!!! Of course I didn't answer, but I sure did laugh really hard.
And now I know that baseball bases and stages of relationship progression have the same double meaning in Japanese as they do in English.

How do you say "strike out" in Japanese?
That is freaking hilarious. Seriously. Crazy kids!
