Re: GOLF
I'm embarrassed to say that I play golf, as does VH, Jr. He enjoys it - he's not good at team sports and is excelling at it, and it makes him feel closer to my dad. I don't take it seriously and it's less punk than even my other hobby, needlepointing, but I enjoy it.

In all seriousness though it's cool that the two of you do something like that together.
I just get tired of hearing grow men gush about golf. And then there's all the made up bullshit elitism that goes with it. Seriously a dress code to hit a fucking ball around?

Re: GOLF
Yep they spend all day playing a round of golf then afterwards they want to talk you through every shot!!! The only more annoying thing is blokes who practise their golf swing with an imaginary club.revbob wrote: ↑16 Apr 2017, 9:19amWhat progressive golf club do you go to that let's Jews in?JennyB wrote: ↑16 Apr 2017, 12:20amI'm embarrassed to say that I play golf, as does VH, Jr. He enjoys it - he's not good at team sports and is excelling at it, and it makes him feel closer to my dad.
