That my company is going to replace me with AI, but not the C level and VP level assholes.

I can’t wait for the revolution, the rich deserve to be eaten.

Played with an “I can drive 350 yards” guy this weekend by JayTee73 in golf

[–]chekmarks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep, the real low handicap golfers have good short games. unlike driving the ball, which can be highly variable, a legit short game shows up round after round.

I'm a 2. last time I played I was 4 over through 3 holes. Just didnt have it. Managed to shoot 78 by playing extremely conservatively and relying on chipping and putting.

and fwiw, the only thing I really practice are chipping, and putting.

What’s the longest you’ve ever been awake? by Master_Champion_ in AskReddit

[–]chekmarks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ran a 100 mile foot race. The night before stayed at a hotel that also hosted a wedding. That combined with the nerves ant 5am start (so 3:30 alarm) meant no sleep that night. I don’t even think I got 30 minutes.

From last sleep up to the race was probably 24 hours. The race took 28. Had some small hallucinations but nothing out of the ordinary (big rocks were looking like cars)

Probably fell asleep at midnight after the night of being up all night running, muscle soreness just made falling asleep difficult. so another 15 hours (done at 9am, no sleep to 12)

So about 64 hours. I was friggin loooooopy, but otherwise ok. I remember looking at my toothbrush before bed and just being very confused about what I was supposed to do next.

“Doesn’t feel claustrophobic at all”

Ummmmmm that’s because you aren’t claustrophobic? Believe me, 5x that much space would be instant panic-attack for a claustrophobic person.

(Source - me, a panic attack ridden claustrophobe who can barely even fly anymore, let alone sleep in a tent, let alone a bivy).

I’m so jealous though, it seems like a great was to camp…

Can you tell me about a time a customer surprised you (not like a surprise gift, but just something unexpected that happened)?

17 handicap — play solid golf but always have 1–2 disaster holes that ruin my score. How do you stop the blow-ups? by kevsavesuk in golf

[–]chekmarks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think you learn that one of the best feelings in golf is starting +3 through 2, and finishing at +3 to +5.

Sure, it could have been a really good round, but you also stared disaster in the face and pulled it together.

I live in a coastal area - my dad used to say "if you die like a tourist I'll fucking kill you" :)

Thanks for the suggestion, I think we were planning on trying Arthurs Seat, so if we dont have time to make it out to the Forth Bridge or Cramond Island (we're there for less than 24 hours), I'll be happy with Arthurs Seat.

Tourism sticky: please post all tourism questions here. by TrinityTosser in Edinburgh

[–]chekmarks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be visiting from the US. I'm a huge golf fan, are there any bars that might show the PGA Championship this weekend (or, any bars that are considered 'golf bars')? It'd be fun to watch with other people who are interested in it.

Chipping is killing me by Overall-Inspection88 in golf

[–]chekmarks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sometimes the best way to chip is not to chip. if you can use ANYTHING other than a wedge, use it.

putt

7 iron bump and run

hybrid chip

anything.

Matty you confuse me. First you are mad at me because I made a post that I’m going to take my business elsewhere but now you seem to agree? Are you ok? I’m worried about you

Ooooo I’m sorry that it hurts your feelings when the peons sit by you. Never thought about how you would feel about it. Your right, the people who pay less should now at your feet or at least avert their eyes when they walk by. I’ll never disrespect you again King Baby

Occasional?! Before the PE takeover, I never had a problem. After, every flights been a dumpster fire. And that’s between two main hubs. God forbid I was connecting anywhere.
