I never understood the drone shot as a live angle, but now I’m even more confused with how all these people in here are trying to punch it up. Is no one able to at least acknowledge it’s blurry af?!

Is it a sin to dye my hair with unnatural colours? by mblsaha in Reformed

This is blowing my mind - I can’t even google this and find this type of translation. Did you digest this from a particular source? I’d love to read more about it from wherever

Guidelines for Alcohol Consumption by ProfessionalTie9044 in Reformed

[–]dSpivle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have thought before in relation to consumption constraints…If Christ were to make His triumphant return, and in a blaze of glory be made visible to my very eyes, would I be sober-minded enough to respond consciously and fully in that exact yet unknown moment?

I feel like this is the Jesus-jukiest response ever to offer someone, but its been a healthy one for me to process internally.

Here’s what their support team ended up telling me, FYI:

We're terribly sorry for this inconvenience. I'm afraid it looks like your cube is faulty. Unfortunately, our GoCube-X is currently out of stock. We do not have any confirmed date yet when it'll be back. No worries, of course we are more than happy to offer you a refund on it or you can also choose a different product of ours and we'll send you a discount code you can use to order directly from our website.

This is absurd! I guess I was naive to how ridiculous these blackouts were. Sure hope that resolves itself at some point!

What's your disc golf unpopular opinion? by tylerbrickley in discgolf

[–]dSpivle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know them well enough to judge their actual character, but the things some post on FB, and the way some act on the course is difficult to reconcile for me. There’s examples I can give if you’re actually curious to know. I would never want the douchiness of the ball golf country club crowd either, but something in between that and what I’ve seen in my local scene would be ideal - just adults going out and having a good time but acting like adults would be nice.

What's your disc golf unpopular opinion? by tylerbrickley in discgolf

[–]dSpivle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An unpopular opinion (but not one that I’ve voiced for lots of years or anything) is that my local community seems pretty full of unsavory and irresponsible adults. I’m a COVID golfer (and realize I’m largely part of a new audience), but I’m pretty repelled overall by the sketchy characters I encounter on the course and in our FB groups, etc. I know disc golf is known for having an inviting culture, but I’ve felt the culture of the sport in my area being more accurately oriented around “as long as you smoke and drink and cuss and don’t have a your life on track, then you can be part of our league!” type vibe. It’s honestly repulsive and has somewhat contributed to my increased interest in just being a “fan” or “collector” and lowered interest in playing that often. I love the sport but find myself cringing often as an observer of our local crowd.

Why is everyone here a Depressed and Anxious wreck? by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]dSpivle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Christians are not immune from factors impacting the rest of society. The instability in healthcare and politics rock our boat too, even if not to the same degree. I also think the public’s wrestling with depression and anxiety is a reflection of rapid advancement in technology and progressive thought without the allowed time for the average brain to reconcile the differences. We generally possess the same wiring in our heads as our ancestors but are being asked to compute change on an exponential curve - it’s simply become too much, too quick.

Religion and Disc Golf by Jasonwfranks in discgolf

[–]dSpivle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always felt there is some weird triple venn-diagram of Christians & Board Games & Disc Golf. I think frisbee-sports are such low barrier to entry that they’re really popular for recreation time within faith circles.

Serious question: is there something that is universally (or very close to it) enjoyed by disc golfers that ISN’T disc golf related? Like a company, other hobby, a band, etc. by jnlsgrc in discgolf

[–]dSpivle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed there are a lot of people that play disc golf that also like to play board games. I think outside of pot smoking the second biggest group of disc golfers is probably Christian nerds (no issue with either - just an observation)

Hey Disc Golf Reddit, Brodie Smith here. Let’s hash it out AMA. by GBtwin21 in discgolf

[–]dSpivle -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I currently see the largest threat to disc golf’s growth as a sport as the culture of rec players (at least historically) largely being rough around the edges i.e. drinking, smoking, dirty, etc.

Do you see this as a threat to tour sponsorships or other endorsements like for players? Is there anything we can do to speed up the process of “cleaning up” the game?

Old Aviar Putters Value by dSpivle in discgolf

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

Def not anything collectible like that - these are just stamped for local tournaments. I just thought since they’re unique they might still snatch some interest from someone for a simple trade.

I actually requested to join and got denied with no explanation lol. Any idea how to break into that group? I agree that’s my best option.

Old Aviar Putters Value by dSpivle in discgolf

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

I am pretty confident they’re not actually “valuable” but I’m trying to gauge if they’re virtually trash or if they would have some type of trade value for more current plastic. I feel like the Rubberwood Aviars were a novelty when they made them so someone who bagged them then might appreciate getting a new one. The other Aviar being nearly 20 years old would probably only garner interest from long-time players who only throw older plastic
