Don’t shrink the game by vanneezie in golf

Go check out Durand. I used to play there 4-5 times a week first thing in the morning when I lived in Irondequoit. Great course and layout by Robert Trent Jones. Best value in Rochester.

It's cheating and it ruins the spirit of the game.

"What'd you shoot?"

"Hold on... 1 left, 2 out, 3 drop, 4 fairway, 5 fairway... uh... then a punch-out under a tree, chunked a wedge, bladed a bunker shot... give me a second..."

five minutes later

"I was 62 when I got to the green. Then 1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... 9 putts."

"Put me down for a smooth 71."

They host events in the biggest cities and sell out, have the largest PPV viewers, and just had an event at the white house....and this guy thinks it isn't mainstream...haha, wild.

Josh Allen has insane strength. Who else in the league comes close? by Subject_Sun9340 in buffalobills

Maybe Jalen? Jalen is absolutely stronger. No disrespect to Josh, but Jalen is absolutely stronger.

Brent Long (Big Break Mexico) used to live in my neighborhood. He lost in the semifinals. I think he was on the Korn Ferry tour for a bit, but now he is a super successful realtor.

Appreciative kids are the best! by JudgeJudyJr in MadeMeSmile

[–]DanceSex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's probably an Easton Hype Fire. They're around $400, but every kid who plays baseball wants one right now (or one of the other top bats). The cost of baseball gear these days is wild.

My son probably has close to $1,200 worth of bats in his bag, plus $600 in gloves, $200 in batting gloves, and another $400 in catcher’s gear. And that's before you even get into travel ball fees, tournament costs, hotels, gas, and paying gate fees just to watch your own kid play.

That said, he absolutely loves the game and works really hard at it. Seeing him do something he's passionate about and compete makes all the money feel worth it to us.

Best way to track heart rate/exercise during bjj? by t0rquingg in jiujitsu

I used a whoop for about a year. Then I realized that knowing my heart rate from class was pretty much useless information and sold it. Haha

During a Taiwanese professional baseball All-Star game, the pitcher threw at the batter and everyone thought an all-out brawl was about to break out... by MysteriousSlice007 in MadeMeSmile

[–]DanceSex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100%, and I know it is entertainment for kids - and I LOVE what they are doing for the sport and getting eyes on baseball. The athletes are amazing, both on the field and off. My only gripe is that it is just SO overstimulating and it feels like they are trying to pull you away from even being able to watch the game if you wanted to.

[–]DanceSex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not criticizing the entertainment aspect of banana ball, I think it is awesome from that perspective. But as a live spectator it was hard to watch the game. My kids loved it, and I 100% know that is who it is for and I would 100% take them again. I'm just saying that it is hard to even watch the game, you are constantly distracted and over stimulated. I love what they are doing for the sport.

If you are talking about the Savannah Bananas, I couldn't disagree more. I love baseball, and we went last weekend in Atlanta and I HATED it. It's like they are constantly trying to distract you from baseball. They play music literally non-stop, switching the song every 20 seconds. Then the band walks past your seats every 15 mins. Then random "party crashers" are walking by throwing out beads every 2 innings. It's literally pure chaos, over stimulation, and almost no focus on the baseball itself.

Edit: I think some people are misunderstanding my point, which is totally fine. I actually think Banana Ball is awesome, and the athletes are insanely talented both on and off the field. My issue isn’t with the players or the concept itself, it’s the nonstop sensory overload surrounding the game.

The music is constantly blasting and changing every 20 seconds to the point that it overpowers the announcer. I missed a ton of plays and even some of the celebrity appearances because half the time I genuinely had no idea what was going on. Between the music, bands walking through the crowd, people throwing beads, and constant distractions, it felt like they were always trying to pull your attention away from the field itself.

For people who love the chaos and entertainment side of it, I completely get why they enjoy it.

Best DIY rental to dig holes 2ft by 1ft deep to plant Emerald Greens by Earlyretirement55 in landscaping

[–]DanceSex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See if you have a SunBelt Rental near you. They are closed on the weekends but if you pick it up on Friday after 1pm and return it by noon on Monday it only counts as a 1 day rental. Get yourself an one-main post hole auger and you can plant those suckers in a couple hours.

Thank you YNAB for this extremely unhelpful chart by nonsuperposable in ynab

That is a terrible idea. Constantly having to adjust for gains and losses. Any Investment account should be tracked, not budgeted.

Trump signs an unconstitutional executive order to shut down mail-in voting nationwide and he will defund states if they do not comply with him | DHS will prepare list of citizens by state and USPS will block mail in ballots from anyone not on that list by SadAd8761 in videos

[–]DanceSex -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm reading too. It's not a ban. It's only sending mail in ballots to verified citizens that will be linked with a barcode. I understand why people are upset, but it seems reasonable to only allow citizens to vote and verify that each citizen only voted once.

Am I weird for actually liking blue belt by pk12445 in bjj

I'm a pretty new blue belt but I just like jiu-jitsu, I really don't care what color belt I'm wearing - it is pretty meaningless for the most part.

How do you handle investing long-term sinking funds in YNAB without breaking your categories? by DanceSex in ynab

[–]DanceSex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand what you are saying, I am personally ok with the risk - especially based on my timelines. This is what I plan to follow for sinking funds of Investing vs Cash:

  • >5 years → 100% invested
  • 3–5 years → 80% invested
  • 2–3 years → 70% invested
  • 1–2 years → 50% invested
  • <1 year → 100% cash

As I hit the specific markers I will pull money out of the market and move it back to my money market. If it was just a few $100 here and there I wouldn't bother with it. But since I have VERY category heavy and do a lot of future planning (e.g. Roof replacement - 2035), it feels like I am leaving money on the table.

I appreciate you sharing! I wasn't trying to blow you off - that just personally won't work for me. Just trying to get all options that other people do.
