GOLF

[Dr. Medulla]

I played it occasionally as a teen with my dad. It's fun. It's also not a sport and definitely not a thing to give a shit about beyond having a walk and hitting things with sticks.

A good walk spoilt?

Did you know you can golf in combat boots if the club is fairly laid back?

I'm sure Mark Twain never wore combat boots.

And I can't afford a white seersucker suit and a string tie.

I remember getting hassled for golfing while wearing cargo shorts that came down almost to my knees. We're not on a team, I'm not wearing your uniform, mid-level manager guy.

The summer when I was 13 or 14, my parents got me a junior membership at the local golf course. My cousin did, too, so pretty much every morning we'd bike out and golf 18. I probably haven't gone more a couple dozen times since, and nothing in close to twenty years. I'd probably enjoy it if I went, but I can't justify the expense. Still, I don't get the proctological critique that goes on with regular golfers. The constant evaluation and effort to correct fault would be better applied toward improving their character.

This. It's a decent way to kill an afternoon if you bring a cooler and some beers and just want to go for a walk, but giving a damn about playing it well is a sign your life is garbage.

I bet he would if he could have.

The cover reads: We Need To Talk.

The rest pretty much writes itself.

Golfers control the real money supply and a secret order of assassins?

Gold sucks and is for shitheads.

I lean towards this.

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.

Fewer needles, at any rate.

What progressive golf club do you go to that let's Jews in?

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?

Ain't no shame.

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.

Public courses! Municipal courses all the way!
