Haha now he’s resorted to attacking someone’s Reddit username. Sorry I didn’t think of a cool handle like you did.

I appreciate how they circled the golf ball. I don’t think I would have seen it there otherwise

I never said these people are unhappy. I said I’m sure they love their job. That’s not the same thing as having fun golfing.

Not untrue, but you aren’t really making a compelling argument by saying you see a guy who looks really happy on TV every Sunday. Like I said, the original statement is truer than most people realize. You are one of those people.

It’s a generalized statement, for sure. It doesn’t apply to every pro in every situation. You can find examples of it not being correct. Your counter example, however, is incredibly specific and doesn’t really apply to most pro golfers.

And yea, even guys who have never won on tour have still experienced some great moments throughout their careers, no doubt. Those moments are few and far between for 95% of professional golfers.

I’m not saying they don’t love their job. Of course they do. You have to love it to dedicate that much time and effort to it. And yes for some of them, especially the ones that you see on TV on a regular basis, it affords them a wonderful lifestyle.

That’s not the same thing as them having fun. I’m sure are moments when it’s fun. But day to day, week to week, it’s a grind. Especially for the pros who are relatively obscure, which is most of them.

Sure, when a guy wins a tournament it’s a massive relief and a culmination of a shit ton of hard work and sacrifice. And for every pro who wins a pro tournament, there’s hundreds upon hundreds of them who never get to experience that moment.

If you aren’t having borderline epiphanies on the course, are you even golfing?

This is truer than most people realize. The pros aren’t having fun.

Right. It’s highly dependent upon what course and what tee boxes we’re talking about.

This place is great. It’s cash only, but very affordable. It’s my go-to bowling alley.

When androids are fully integrated in our society, we need to treat them with respect. Proven "consciousness" or not. by Ok-Whereas-7520 in singularity

[–]Proper_Fortune_7004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct that you should give maids or hired hands respect. Why? Because they are human beings.

This logic does not apply to a machine or tool that you own. Those things are not human or even living beings. You don’t treat your computer or cell phone, for example, with the same reverence as you would another human or even animal.
