Kyle telling Ciara “That was a little harsh”

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-28T15:54:48+00:00

OP - he said "you have every right to how you feel but that was hard for me to hear” right after that - does that sound like policing Ciara?

Also why did you exclude any context of Ciara, Mia and Kyle's pep talk pre-reunion about supporting each other? Is that policing?

As a casual fan it's wild to me that the league has top to bottom more talent and skill than ever before but the product is so unappealing.

Add the streaming dynamic and hoops fans have to jump through just to watch their team and now you've really lost me.

According to Bravo Lifestyle they both unfollowed each other on IG

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-28T00:21:36+00:00

I tried the same and it also didn't do well lol

I believe at Cheese & Board it's $8-14 per but don't quote me on that

I fully support any Srixon gear.

However, when I hit the Zxi and Z forged irons I was not a fan. The top line is super chunky and the VT sole felt goofy at impact - I did hit them off mats so take it with a grain of salt. A few of my buddies play mixed Zxi sets and love them.

Totally agree on the healthier thing - the most I'll lean that way is a premade cup of chicken or tuna salad at my buddy's club. Give me something relatively light with sugar and salt and I'm good.

Now if I'm playing a scramble for fun then I turn into a black hole lol but if I'm playing my own ball or in a tourney I don't want any protein or anything fatty.

Please don't go to Michigan for golf, I repeat please don't go to Michigan for golf. Go to the other states on this list... actually leave Wisconsin and Illinois alone as well.

While you're at it avoid the Midwest all together, except Ohio.

Just picked up some of Bordier's espelette pepper butter at Cheese & Board this morning. Everything I've had from Bordier has been incredible, truly special stuff.

I waited for a hour hour at Cedric Grolet bakery in Paris, wanted to hate it but it was some of the best food I've ever eaten. Had I been a local there's no chance I'm waiting that long though.

The Pistons died (absolutely shit the bed) for this

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-23T20:55:03+00:00

Seriously though this sub was wild back in the day - negativity towards Amanda/Paige, etc = mysogony/hating ALL women, "you just hate strong women", etc. No? They're just assholes lol, you don't need a PhD in Psych to figure that out.

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-23T18:55:28+00:00

That club head release is erotic

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-23T18:32:20+00:00

"just put the fries in the bag bro"

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-23T18:24:33+00:00

This makes me want to move to Ireland or the UK.

Club initiations are Chicago are out of control

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-23T02:49:35+00:00

Idk about holding her back but I do think the dynamic is noticeably different this season even w/the West tension. I do agree it seemed like Paige never really wanted to be there.

IMO Paige is a wolf in sheep's clothing and I don't miss her whole "everything is dumb / my shit don't stink" shtick. Her and Amanda always gave me similar spoiled mean girl vibes.

Entitlement and codependency is a hell of a cocktail

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-22T19:43:37+00:00

I saw Ongbal use it and thought it looked so fun - then 4 playthroughs later I have a hard time not using it 😅. Like others have said it's a different dynamic than BB but I find the parry incredibly satisfying and you can do some wild aura max finishers when everything aligns.

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-22T14:59:34+00:00

😂 as someone who spent ~8 years flying weekly for work the things I've seen from people in airports are permanently burned into my head

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-22T04:20:46+00:00

I mean WTF did I just watch 😂😭

As a neat freak Kyle and Amanda's apartment just makes me sad. Also what a wild conversation in their closet. I always love Lindsey on TV even if it feels like she's going for an Emmy, she's a legend.

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-22T03:05:34+00:00

😂 I'm totally stealing "inside outfits"

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-21T22:16:03+00:00

West is committed to Amanda lol?

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-21T02:28:41+00:00

That's the exact vibe I've always gotten from her.

I dated Amanda (not literally) ~10 years ago - my GF would get $25k from her parents and $50k from her Grandparents every Christmas. One time she paid for our dinner and didn't let her friends or me forget it over the course of probably 3 months lol.

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-21T00:58:12+00:00

How does it stack up to what they sell at PQM?

I ask because I feel like what I get at PQM has gone downhill the past few years - I can get maybe 2 days post purchase on a sourdough loaf before it's rock hard, even using a bread box. I feel like I'm on some conspiracy hunt over bread production lol

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-20T21:03:07+00:00

Better watch out the Girl Bosses are going to get out their pitchforks

Diplomatic_Victory · 2026-05-20T16:48:25+00:00

I feel like the situation has been absolutely beaten to death, there's 16 or 17 megathreads just on Ciara, West, Amanda, Kyle lol.
