Is this a sort of etymology question? Dick - Richard, Pimp - er....
Or measurements?

It's a bit early for more clues, Robyn. I like to see if anyone knows it first...
You got very close to the Skippy one with your wild guesses, so why not try a few more?

haha, I've been trying! You said to google so I thought for the googless like myself a clue might be worth it
(hee hee, new word... Googless!)
OK,
I'm guessing pimps is not being used in the sense that might be obvious, so until someone comes up with a better idea, I'm going to work with Dicks.
Two Dicks are a pair of Richards.
A pair of richards... colloquialism for a couple of idiots? Four pimps and a pair of idiots... A scrum?
