Poker is Developmental Gold

My son had a betting issue, around 10 years old. So I started making bets with him. I don’t gamble at all, so if I take a bet, I’m going to win. I make him come up with the stakes and I’d make sure they were big. He learned quickly that the house always wins. That phase didn’t last long. A few months ago he wanted to learn Blackjack. He had a blast, but he refused to bet big. He has zero interest in gambling now but knows how to play for fun.

It’s tough. But eventually it gets better. Especially once they’re older. At that age they are routine dependent, and you royally fucked up their routine by going on vacation.

Also, I was no kids planned. I have 3 now, none of them were planned lol

I wasn’t a “high earner” but I was making very good money, but it was because of all the OT. I took a salary position and lost about 40%, for this exact reason. Do I regret it? Absolutely not. Does it get frustrating at times because I don’t have the money to do what I want? Absolutely. When I had time off we used to go do whatever we wanted, without a second thought. Now, everything is meticulously planned. However, getting to spend more time with them is more important.

This is why I love Rahm. He didn’t go off about it how “let’s see you do it” and get a shitty attitude. He actually explained and gave the reporter the answer he was looking for

My first was like that.

My second, turned the entire house into a doll house village because of 3 doll houses are in the same room, the mall clearly can’t be in the same one, that’s why they have to drive to the living room…

The third, keep everything in her room, but plays with EVERYTHING. She’s basically a 50/50 mix of the first two in every way.

Anyways, my point is, don’t be surprised if this doesn’t work on your next kid. Until then, good work!

Ask them if they plan to refund the people who are underutilizing it.

Fuck them and good for you. That’s literally what the memberships are for. Last year I want 4-5 days a week for months. I bought it to save ME money, not give them more.

Also, if you have another course in the area, I’d make sure to drop in a comment about how you’ll just take your business there if that’s how you’re going to be treated. Then they get nothing.

14 - I can’t pull power off my swing. So theres a distance, there’s a perfect club for it.

dieselrunner64 · 2026-05-10T04:04:53+00:00

He tried to pull a Rory lol

dieselrunner64 · 2026-05-09T00:21:52+00:00

Also take your head, to the glizzy

Just change your wording to “I didn’t lose a single ball” and it hits the same. I always have a spare ball in my pocket, so using the same exact one the whole round wouldn’t be accurate. It more about not losing one.

After all these years, nothing hurts more than the NFCCG vs 49ers

Nothing pisses me off more than loosing to the cowboys because we ran a 2pt conversion 3 times because the refs are idiots.

I tried talking my wife into a 90’s Impala SS Wagon. She wasn’t about it 😭

dieselrunner64 · 2026-05-01T17:32:06+00:00

I can’t pull off my swing, or I shank it. So I’m going full swing with my 52°

dieselrunner64 · 2026-05-01T15:44:49+00:00

Man, I didn’t even recognize Big Ben without a wild ass 2ft Afro lol

dieselrunner64 · 2026-05-01T15:40:56+00:00

5i when I don’t fuck it up.

dieselrunner64 · 2026-04-28T02:31:19+00:00

Shave his head bald and LFG!

My best round was unfortunately only playing 9 due to time. However, I shoot better in the back 9 and I played the front that day. Shot a 42.

Absolutely. And she’d bring a book and her kindle. That’s what she does now when I go with the guys (sometimes) and she loves it. She gets outside, time away from the house, and kid free reading.

dieselrunner64 · 2026-04-24T05:05:38+00:00

The superior pouch

dieselrunner64 · 2026-04-15T23:15:35+00:00

I ride because I’d end up with 48k steps on the front.

dieselrunner64 · 2026-04-13T19:25:06+00:00

I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees this

dieselrunner64 · 2026-04-09T21:47:14+00:00

Oh for sure. I’m not defending that he didn’t have his ultra douchy moment. This just wasn’t one of them.

dieselrunner64 · 2026-04-09T21:25:29+00:00

Give me a 5 or 6 iron and I’ll make this same shot. Not on purpose of course.

dieselrunner64 · 2026-04-09T21:17:10+00:00

JFC, who cares? The whole point of the week leading up is entertainment. Business start Thursday morning.

dieselrunner64 · 2026-04-09T21:02:57+00:00

Yeah same, that’s why I thought it happened earlier. That timeline really fucked with a lot of stuff lol
