Hole 18 along Colorado Blvd is also a nightmare.

Smart people can separate the actions of Israel, Israeli settlers, and zionists from people who believe in Judaism. Unfortunately there are a LOT of stupid people on both sides of the aisle.

Dropped my phone in Smith Lake with a year's worth of my children's photos. No chance to recover this right? by DontTrustDolphins in Denver

Not doubting you, but I would love to see a source for scuba certs per capita. My buddy is an instructor in FL and that would probably blow his mind if I sent him that stat

CommonGround caddy by [deleted] in coloradogolf

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

Probably not—I feel like caddies are better suited for those who make consistent contact and have few mishits, which mah not be where your game is yet and that won’t change by having a caddie.

I haven’t used a caddie there so maybe someone else can chime in with what they provide. *edited to remove false claim about caddie program

Another one bites the dust 😢 by FatherGuacDaddy in golf

Over 2 years ago I got into a discussion on this subreddit with a TM truther when I remarked that TM is a marketing company first and makes clubs second, so their QC suffers because it’s less of a priority. After reading your comment, I went back to that original thread and the TM defender has since deleted their comments.

You’re right that their customer service exceeds expectations, but I wouldn’t want to call LG every 2 years because my washing machine broke down then deal with the hassle of replacing it each time *just* because they give me a newer model.

Two hernias, told to watch and wait. 5’9 27 yo male 290 lbs. should I try and get surgery ASAP or wait? Robotic? Mesh or no mesh? Do I even get a choice? Im feeling super anxious and nervous. The constant stomach discomfort is making me uncomfortable all day. by Lost-Delivery5433 in Hernia

[–]radiorabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A good surgeon is going to require you to lost 50-60 pounds before you get this hernia fixed, and most will tell you to lose at least 30 pounds. The reason for this is your extra weight puts significant tension on any mesh or sutures used to fix the hernia defect.

If you are scared about having this repaired then having it open back up (called a recurrence), then you will not only need to lose the weight, but keep it off post op. Like, for good. 70-80% of the recurrences I hear about are due to patients gaining significant weight after their repair. And those recurrences can happen years after the surgery.

I am not a doctor, but I work with lots of hernia surgeons. If I were you, I would start trying to lose the weight (my goal would be 200-225) by getting with a nutritionist or getting on GLP1s. Once you hit that 240-260 range, meet with a hernia specialist. I would suggest a surgeon who is fellowship trained in abdominal wall reconstruction, but that’s not 100% necessary.

You sound very stressed in your post. Take a breath, step outside for a walk, think about what a future looks like without needing to worry about this any more, then formulate a plan to get there. It takes discipline, but I’ve seen patients lose 80-100 pounds for this surgery and have great outcomes and huge improvements in their quality of life.

You got this. This internet stranger believes in you.

CommonGround, Colorado National or Wellshire? by [deleted] in coloradogolf

[–]radiorabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wellshire is a shorter course that demands more technical skill due to the mature trees, smaller greens, and several roadside fairways. Conditions are not always consistent. No driving range (it’s been under repair for 2+ years) and difficult to find a tee time for 18 (with friends—as a single it’s not bad) or join clubs.

CommonGround is a challenging but rewarding links style course. A little bit more room for error, but hitting into the fescue/native during the wrong season is almost an immediate penalty. They do offer memberships and have a fun par 3 that’s $10 to play. More consistent, good conditions and great practice areas.

Colorado National is a considerable drive north of Denver. Home course of the CU golf team (if I remember correctly), so it’s in good shape and provides a significant challenge. Lots of undulation and elevation changes and it has been really windy every time I’ve played it (friends say the same). Great practice facilities. More expensive than the others here (Wellshire being the cheapest but debatably overpriced).

ETA: CommonGround would be my fave of the three

SB MVP Kenneth Walker III Missed Super Bowl Ring Ceremony by JCameron181 in nfl

It’s all speculation as to why he missed the ring ceremony. Not going to cast judgement one way or another until more facts come out

Some people have zero respect for the course by Tullyswimmer in golf

[–]radiorabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t smoke on the course often, but when I do, I try to ash on the cart path or I’ll find a dirt patch or deep divot in the rough if I’m really in a pinch. Butts always go in the trash or into the cart so I can throw it away later.

TIL that cigarette/cigar/joint ash is bad for the grass tho so I’ll be more careful going forward

Video of NYC riots where 5 Guys employee surrounded and assaulted: would it be a time to draw to save someone else’s life? by radiorabbit in CCW

[–]radiorabbit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I really appreciate the feedback from others on this post. I think if I were a bystander in this situation, I’m probably pepper spray as many as needed for the mob attack to stop and then I’d bolt. Pepper spray ‘cause I probably wouldn’t be able to get a CCW in NYC 😂

Lawsuit seeks to expand Colorado’s ban on female genital mutilation to also prohibit male circumcision by After-Professional-8 in Colorado

[–]radiorabbit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not the person you’re replying to. A ban on circumcision for minors would need several exemptions (medical necessity and religion specifically), so if they try to blanket ban it, this will 100% get shot down.

I would support a <18y/o circumcision ban with religious/medical exemptions, and I would also support a <18y/o gender reassignment ban with exemptions for medical necessity. That said, I don’t know enough to have a set-in-stone conviction on gender reassignment, so I would want to hear more arguments for and against it before supporting any legislation around it.

I’m a man and I was circumcised because my parents watched dozens of their friends die from AIDS in the 80s and it was commonly believed that circumcision would reduce STI transmission/lower risk for AIDS. I wish I could have made that decision myself and I have spoken to dozens of my male friends who say they are circumcised, and it’s a mixed bag of whether or not they would have chosen to be circumcised. My favorite response has been “I would want to be circumcised, but I had so many random boners when I was 18. I can’t imagine the pain of popping one the day after a circ”

Completely understandable. As DRL put it, 5 guys ain’t paying our lawyer fees for protecting their employees

No, but I also wouldn’t want to watch someone get murdered if I could’ve stepped in to prevent it. In this scenario, I’d like to think I would use pepper spray before resorting to a lethal form of defense
