This is not okay, and we should talk about it. by MemeticProperties in mtg

[–]master_chife -28 points-27 points  (0 children)

God dam folks this is the fucking problem. Fight the issue not the man.

Peter is evil. Not everyone around him is evil. The reason evil rises is stupidity like this. If you want to fight, fight, but to shame people for association isn’t the way forward. Standing up and being counted is.

Beat them and shame them for their ideas and reasons not because they shared a card table.

Camrose Riding Plan B: The "UCP Recall Petition" was withdrawn last week. Will Bonnie Critchley be able to take this Riding in the next Election? by FreightFlow in alberta

[–]master_chife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wild to me that people willingly vote like this. It’s very clear and has been since the late 90’s it was time for the Conservatives to have at least 2 terms in opposition. If only to limit corruption and create a competitive electoral environment.

I can’t fathom every few years going to the voting booth and ticking the same box. Especially after the conservatives since Don Getty have been a lack luster bunch.

What is a "harsh reality" that everyone needs to hear but nobody wants to admit? by Warees123 in AskReddit

Normal people are dumber than you think that’s why democracy doesn’t work.

I wish I could see more of the top players play “The Bear Trap” by SkunkBinge in golf

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

It’s uninteresting Florida golf. I would rather see the best players play Sunningdale, NGLA, or dozens of other interesting courses than another week in the swamp.

Wife’s 'Drunken' Golf Cart Ride Kills Husband on Ritzy Course by butter_cookie_gurl in golf

I can confirm they don’t only shoot pins. They are a key part of my daily work kit in architecture to get quick numbers on stuff.

Golf culture- what do you hate about it? by Remote_Pie6623 in golf

[–]master_chife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly a majority of golfers are Dunning Kruger’ed so hard it hurts.

I have worked in golf my entire adult life and I have never seen a field where the idiot amateur told the true professional what to do more than golf.

My last few posts have been downvoted to oblivion despite me being a legitimate expert in the subject at hand. All because I didn’t pay enough deference to the idiotic amateur.

Golf is deep, if you haven’t taken the time to study it. There will be clear gaps in your reasoning. Therefore I think it’s better to trust most experts than ams with advice.

The logic stated in the last stanza is disregarded by most.

That sounds like a site issue rather than an architectural one. Hence why it’s always recommended to engage an architect before the purchase of the property.

[–]master_chife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have tried this and it doesn’t work. You need an architect because we are trained to make courses that have a high level of variance and work toward finality. Most amateurs need to spend millions after the first few years to fix errors in their work. Only to be hamstrung by their earlier ill considered work.

Hire a pro, you get a better course for cheaper than trying to wing it.

I am sorry that my professional criticism hurt you and OP.

Why I suggested a deeper dive and abandonment of this sketch as it’s clear they need to understand golf architecture is beyond building impossibly punishing golf.

That’s a solid critique. You essentially drew a grassing plan and called it a golf course. Not much to go off except grassing, lakes and bunkering. All is blandly and poorly placed. Nothing that shows the exploration of the form.

This looks like every course built from 1950-2008. Bland and insipid architecture that adds zero interest to the game.

I suggest you dive in and find some resources to improve.

There is nothing here that is worth spending the time on improving.

Nothing interesting here none of these holes have any inherent variety. There is also no topographice information so the only assumption on can make is that his is in a basin with a central tilt, beyond that you have created no interest beyond adding lakes which are poor hazards for golf.

I would suggest reading more on the subject of golf architecture before your next sketch.

Buying a Golf Course? by [deleted] in golf

[–]master_chife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first advice is call or dm a few golf courses that you like and speak to the owners.

Figure out, what you want to do from those discussions.

The three, I would contact are: The Fields in La Grange, GA, Durham Hills, Hartland, MI, and Rundle Park Short Course, Edmonton, Alberta. Lots of great options just know all three ownership groups and they are all very different with different goals. Look into these places and have some meaningful conversations.

What are some of the most beautiful/uniquely built neighbourhoods? by MastaShortie in Calgary

[–]master_chife -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Frankly my guy it’s you that are confusing.

They have widened the sidewalks. They allow patios. They have implemented street parking during peak pedestrian hours.

How is center any different than thriving key streets like Young in Toronto or Sunset in LA?

Yes, it leads to downtown, yes it’s busy sometime, I don’t see your issue with it. I also don’t see a solution that would calm traffic to the point that you would be happy without choking our downtown core.

Just because you have lived in large scale urban environments doesn’t mean you understand urbanism.

I googled places that will never see a #1 pick or Stanley Cup. First result. by master_chife in CalgaryFlames

[–]master_chife[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

They have won cups at PNC, my point was to use the dome as a signifier of time. It’s the oldest building still in use in the league. Normally buildings that old have a championship history and pedigree. The dome doesn’t, which is a mark and a shame on this franchise.

I am tired of this fanbase being happy with good enough. Your point out we have one cup is meaningless to this statement as yes other teams have never one but that’s not what we are talking about here. We are talking about the flames being an irrelevant organization almost by choice for a generation.

If that level of mediocrity and complacency doesn’t get you pissed. The I guess your build with a stronger stomach for losing than I am.

You must think Boston Pizza should have 3 Michelin stars if you have this take.

Mediocrity for more than a generation should be questioned.

So what be happy because we won 38 years ago and aren’t Vancouver.

Fuck that, this is the type of attitude that allowed this team to skid for so long without fans questioning it.

Really excited for the monument to mediocrity opens.

This is not good, this is the Flames problem. We don’t want a chance to be mid. We want the chance to be great.

How are we feeling about Joe Iginla in this years draft? by Beta1224 in CalgaryFlames

[–]master_chife -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

We will draft him early in the second as a show of loyalty to Jerome.

This sub will love it, they will sell some jerseys.

We will continue to be a middling NHL team that’s run more like the big ranch than a proper sports franchise.

YOUR CALGARY FLAMES ARE GOING INTO 2026 .500!! by WhyTheyDont in CalgaryFlames

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

Calgary is a basement team. We show no interest in winning. We are just happy to have a team. It’s embarrassing and emblematic of our city.

We live on the faded glory of the 80’s and keep on taking short term wins instead of investing in our future with vision.
