| Topic | "How are you?" "Fine, thank you. And you?" |
| Giant_Aspirin 07/13/20 5:17:50 PM #12 | I hate how Americans use "How are you?" as a standard greeting. It's so disingenuous because most of the time the person asking doesn't care how you are at all AND you're expected to give a positive response to avoid awkwardness. We should just say "Good morning/afternoon/etc" like normal people. Sometimes I just want to say "I'm fucking terrible, man." just to see 'em squirm. --- Playing: Disco Elysium; Rocket League You see it your way, I'll see it mine and I'll be fine |

AND since then he has said countless times that masks are good. Why do you people hyper-focus on the one thing he said (over 3 months ago) that supports your views while ignoring the 50 things he's said since then that counter it AND ignoring that he admitted that one thing you hyper-focus on was misguided? --- Playing: Disco Elysium; Rocket League You see it your way, I'll see it mine and I'll be fine |

A lot of mistakes were made, a lot of mistakes." this shit is so fucking disingenuous, it makes me sick. no, you fucking mental midget, that was only stated in the beginning and it was ONLY because we had a shortage of PPE (caused by Trump's lack of action, by the way) so officials wanted to reserve them for health workers.

I think I'm alright - also not great at getting good distance with a stable shot, but overhand throws are very reliable for my tee shots when possible. for a long time my problem with drives was my grip. i started using a "power grip" (look it up) and it really helped my distance. i also watch instructional videos on driving technique / form and they've helped me a lot too. i think my most significant problem right now is my follow-through, or lack of. i can overhand throw it when i really need to but i am terrible about power and accuracy. i also really need to learn how to make it land flat so it doesn't roll like 30 feet <_< --- Playing: FF7: Remake; Rocket League You see it your way, I'll see it mine and I'll be fine |

Should be nice when it is but idk how long it'll be due to covid. my home/main course got hit HARD by that ash bore weevil thing or w/e that went through my state like 10 years ago. seriously like half of the trees on the fairways were cut down. new ones have been planted but it'll be like 5-10 years before they're worthy obstacles. BuckVanHammer posted... I'd like to try it. theres a course just a short walk away from my house... do it do it do it i recommend practicing in a field or something first, especially if the course has thick / tall roughs lining the fairways. hunting for discs in tall grass or bushes is, easily, the least enjoyable part of the game. billcom6 posted...

Its fun though, I wouldnt mind getting back into it. discs are relatively cheap! you can find solid "starter set"s with a driver, mid-range and putter for $20-$50 (varies by quality). once you have discs the costs are super low b/c most courses are free! if you're near central Ohio HMU and i'll throw a round with ya.
