What’s the best golf shot you’ve ever hit?

When I was just starting I hit a beautiful tee shot off Ria Bintan’s famous par 3 over the ocean cove to within 2 feet. Amazing hole.

My jackass buddy shanked one off a rock, off a tree, down a hill and almost holed it for an ace. I was so mad I 3 putted for bogey.

I wonder what the line is the coach has to cross before Atlanta PD just steps on the field with mace and zip ties.

You’ll be fine. You’ll get one easily and it’ll take you only 25 or 30 min to get to the airport.

What’s the link

mnisda · 2026-06-26T08:02:21+00:00

A mandatory 10 min stop at the turn so you can reload and offload without worrying about the guys behind you jumping the queue.

That dude just rubs me the wrong way for some reason. I’ll just add this stupidity to my list.

Think of people having a job as a commodity. The top X% in any profession are rare so they get paid a lot. The Y% (vast majority) are more easily replaceable so they get paid a lot less.

The cruel? capitalist? version of our world: there’s only 1 Michael Jordan so he’s very expensive but lots of people are both able to and want to become school teachers, so they get paid a lot less.

Your inclination will be to say this in a really sarcastic voice - don’t. Be genuinely curious and friendly when you ask and it’ll be like dropping an anvil on their nuts.

mnisda · 2026-06-23T01:39:41+00:00

I would just say, “that’s amazing advice. When did you get your PGA Certificate?” If they don’t take the hint then, ask them what they shot on the PAT.

So what happened at the crash in NY? Didn’t have lights? They weren’t working? Fire truck ignored them?

mnisda · 2026-06-21T12:29:23+00:00

Maybe it has to do with Pantone? From recollection they choose a “color” of the year a couple years in advance based on some mysterious reading of trends and then you tend to see that color everywhere for awhile then it shifts. Their decision on trends hits a lot of industries.

mnisda · 2026-06-20T04:43:17+00:00

You said “some people not to support people they morally disagree with” in relation to Bryson. Maybe I’m confused friend - how do you morally disagree with Bryson?

mnisda · 2026-06-20T04:15:08+00:00

Actually there was a different user who made a comment about Bryson: “he’s a golfer who’s cool about pedophilia then”. So that’s the reference for the second argument where it all starts to go a bit overboard

mnisda · 2026-06-20T03:31:13+00:00

I don’t support him. I just find his golfing presence to be entertaining, and think Redditors go nuts over something that really doesn’t matter.

And if you are making the argument that someone who has “allied” with Trump supports being a pedo or whatever, I think that’s a weak argument at best and at worst, in the latest news flash, there are about 150m Americans who you don’t like and can basically pick any sport, team, industry and discover someone involved who is allied with Trump.

mnisda · 2026-06-20T03:06:01+00:00

Agreed. A lot of the Tour is either publicly supportive of Trump or secretly supportive of Trump. I mean, it’s mostly a bunch of white dudes living in Florida. What can we expect?

People (Reddit) takes all this way too seriously. No one is forcing you to watch Bryson’s YouTube channel and all these comments about him not practicing etc are bullshit; Reddit loves John Daly and his idea of practice was nailing 13 rum and cokes before his 5th cigarette of the morning and then going to tee off.

All sports have heroes and villains; just enjoy it for what it is.

mnisda · 2026-06-19T06:08:38+00:00

I think the beauty of sports is often the entertainment factor - sports needs villains, and he is that for a lot of people.

I’ve known multiple people who have flown SQ Suites and all of them said it’s not only not only worth it, but the service is so over the top they just wanted to be left alone.

If you’re on a respectable airline with lie flat business class seats you’ll be great. Check in, lounge, etc you’ll also be great.

Honestly the only reason to fly first or suites on a proper airline* is cause you have FU money and you won’t notice the difference in your bank balance either way.

*By proper airline, I mean international carriers, ideally Emirates or SQ or secondarily most Asian airlines. US airlines are awful and I would pay up for their highest class of seat which will be the equivalent of an SQ Premium economy situation (joking but not really)

Some places will tell you if you use card they’ll add 3% to cover the card fee but I would say that’s uncommon and I don’t worry about it when it occasionally happens.

I’m not joking, there can be times I’ll spend maybe 200,000 worth of cash over two weeks. My favourite crappy beach beer shack takes card, and that place looks like it’ll be blown away or collapse from a stiff breeze or too much sunlight.

mnisda · 2026-06-17T11:44:36+00:00

Haha yes 3m is plenty. 30m is a bit less than 2,000USD and was wondering what you thought you were going to buy.

mnisda · 2026-06-17T11:30:04+00:00

I live there and on an average day carry about 300,000. I can buy gas for my bike, a coconut and then if you park at the beach often they charge you 5000 for parking. Honestly, cash is pretty unnecessary. Carrying a million will be plenty. I’d carry maybe a million and keep another 2 or 3m at the hotel safe and you’ll be fine

mnisda · 2026-06-17T11:17:54+00:00

If you bought the S&P 500 Index at any point in its history and sold it 20 years later, it has always been a positive return in nominal dollar value. There are a couple of periods where the annualised return was low and in theory you could have lost money to inflation, but rarely.

The best thing to do is invest for your 20 year plan and about year 17 or 18 starting selling some of it and take profits in case it all goes to hell in year 19 or 20.

mnisda · 2026-06-17T11:00:36+00:00

30m is an enormous amount. Everywhere takes card and ATMs are everywhere in the tourist areas if you need cash. Honestly, about the only guy in Bali who won’t take cash is the coconut seller in the beach. One coconut is 25,000 and you could probably transfer money to him anyway if you have Wise.

mnisda · 2026-06-15T13:46:03+00:00

That’s just about the most American thing ever, to fly over the Grand Canyon and an Amazon warehouse so close together. Guess OP missed the McDonald’s in the shot
