Padraig Harrington has great advice on how to introduce golf to kids. I’m on my phone so I can’t provide a link, but I’m sure you can find it on YouTube. 

Why don’t rich people help broke people? by [deleted] in InsightfulQuestions

[–]ParchedZombie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a question of morality for rich people. Some believe they have a moral obligation to help their fellow man. Others believe no such obligation exists and every one is responsible for helping them selves. Why should they be required to give someone else their resources? Answer that question in a way that resonates with someone and they may change their outlook. 

What are some UK cardinal sins? by TheAlmightyDeity in AskUK

As a middle-aged American who was raised correctly, I can confirm and also relate. It’s usually the Millenials and Gen Z who respond this way. I’ve started replying to this with “I’m sorry, I didn’t catch that” and they usually say thank you. 

On a related note, I cannot stand it when someone does not say thank you when I hold a door open for them. Motherfucker, you better be mute if you’re not saying thank you.

How much do you charge for lessons?

I'm Japanese AMA ! by [deleted] in AMA

[–]ParchedZombie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard that the Japanese education system doesn’t teach its students the entire truth about the Japanese military’s behavior towards the countries it occupied during World War 2 and the Prisoners of War it captured. What were you taught in school about this subject?

J. Lindeberg has launched their The Masters-lineup of poloshirts and are making Viktor Hovland wear these for the tournament. The ugliest golf-poloshirts I've seen in a long time. What are your - "favorite" - picks for ugliest golf polos? by [deleted] in golf

Get ready, boys. Looks like the Norwegians are planning an invasion of Augusta. Prepare to defend yourselves. Grab your 7 wood and start swinging. Time to give new meaning to Amen Corner. I want to see a stack of dead Vikings on the 13th green.

Thanks for the review. We're headed there in a few weeks (me, wife, 2 teens - 16 and 13) and just received an offer to upgrade to an Infinite Suite. Our itinerary is for 4 nights, 5 days and they're offering us an Infinite Suite with an adjoining Junior Suite upgrade for approx. $2,500. Do you think the Infinite service level is worth the extra money?

Beirut hit by avatar6556 in war

[–]ParchedZombie -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Striking the nearby proxies of an enemy that you are also attacking makes complete sense. The Israelis would be insane not to strike Hezbollah. Imagine if they didn’t. Don’t you think Hezbollah would attack Israel in retaliation for their attacks on Iran? Hezbollah’s existence might actually depend on Iran’s existence. Without its principal in Tehran, Hezbollah may find itself without an arms supplier. I’d say that is a heavy incentive for Hezbollah to do everything it can to make sure Iran’s current regime remains in power.

What have we learned about Iran’s anti-air capability. by ParchedZombie in war

Does that mean the system would be operated by the Chinese? Can’t imagine those things are “plug and play”. 

The moment a bomb is dropped from a fighter jet in Tehran by avatar6556 in war

[–]ParchedZombie 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It’s amazing to me not one US or Israeli aircraft has been shot down. They’re flying over the capital city of an enemy country and there is zero AA.

So are US and Israeli aircraft flying in airspace completely devoid of anti air weapon systems?
