"Thanks for hitting the ball into my park for once "
What does this expression mean?
It's a vague allusion to baseball, but doesn't correspond to any literal event in that game. The sentence means ``Thanks for giving it to me for a change'' where the `it' is something determined by the context of the sentence.
I get the first part "thanx for giving it to me"
but not the 2nd one "for a change"
thnx anyways
but not the 2nd one "for a change"
thnx anyways
"for a change", "for once" - means that that's not what usually happens
Example of the above:
"We always do what you want to do. We should do what I want to do for once."
"I'm tired of cooking dinner every night. Let's eat out for a change."
"We always do what you want to do. We should do what I want to do for once."
"I'm tired of cooking dinner every night. Let's eat out for a change."
