@lolwhat I'm missing some context. What was said and supposedly misinterpreted?
-
-
@loopback0 Yes, but... this still doesn't explain the meme. I'm guessing this is a play on the phrase "close shave" or something? But that's not a term that's commonly associated with Leave It To Beaver, so...
-
@Mason_Wheeler beaver is slang for a woman's genitals.
to explain the full joke...
Ward asked June to shave her beaver and she instead shaved The Beaver

I'm not sure, but I think it is a baseball diamond.
-
@Tsaukpaetra A baseball diamond, yes. And...?

Edit: that is to say,

@Tsaukpaetra OK, so you're in the right franchise
And where is it located?

No, the other home of a (now former) AL East powerhouse.

@Tsaukpaetra What's the name of the first baseman?

@Tsaukpaetra And this would be the moment when the Doctor developed his/her longest-running catchphrase: "I'll explain later".

I don't know! Who?

I've never seen the series but that's the only part I recognized. Didn't help much though. Obviously I'm not a golfer.

@LaoC That line got called out explicitly in the charity show spoof, wherein Rowan Atkinson (Black Adder, Mr Bean) played the Doctor.
Having him/her offer to explain something later to his/her companion du jour (i.e. off-camera so as not to slow the action or require the writers to come up with an actual explanation) is as much a trope of the series as having every alien planet look exactly like a Welsh stone quarry.

Thanks! That helped!

No. What's the name of the second baseman.

The other Doctors following his multiple regenerations in that sketch ("The Curse of Fatal Death") were all played by actors who at one time or another been shortlisted for the role of the Doctor in the series.

No. What's the name of the second baseman.
I was wondering how long it would take for someone to pick up on that.
-
I still have zero idea what the baseball thing is about but I figure it wasn’t funny enough for anyone to explain, not even in a groan worthy fashion.

@Dragoon oh that's properly punworthy.

Yeah I'll admit I did a piss poor remix of the joke.

In hindsight I now get that, but at the time I thought you were just asking the obvious question without realising that was the joke.

😭 Yeah, that's kinda how the humor is supposed to work...

Nope: she was on the list, too, as a candidate for the Fifth.
