This is going to be a super random one, but the more and more golf charities I play, they ask us to take pics like this before teeing off:

Why is this a thing? I'd rather have a pic one arm hugging my bud before tee off, with a boulevard wheatie in my hand. This seems so weirdly formal to me and who ever started this trend, annoys me.

 :lol: Playing golf and having my in laws put me in their charity events for almost free is barely the brag. If anything, it's the opposite. I'm not Catholic, but I'm trying to contribute more when I go to these things. Just feels like a stuffy pic at tee off, when the whole day is usually a party on the golf course.

I mean you are, but those aren't the ones they send out for the weekly newsletter/charity page/etc. It's ok, I know it's a dumb PP. But we're all kinda quirky, right?

I've maybe said this one before but I don't understand when someone wins an mvp award or something they say they are "humbled". Like what on earth, being told you are the best at something is the opposite of humbling

Humble has two meanings. It means "not proud," and it means "near the ground." Maybe it's the second meaning?

i think they mean that even as they have surpassed all earthly competition, they are reminded that they are as far below the divine as all other men are below them.

I'm very humbled that you were able to immediately dig that out.

Or that despite their success on the court/field, the reward serves to remind them that they are ultimately judged by a bunch of poindexters who hold the player’s fate in their hands.

Wrong on both counts. You've got issues, my friend whom I've never met.

The worst. Gag me with a rough ridin' spoon.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Look you guys, I’m not at all implying that Shanann Watts “had it coming” but I’m pretty sure she referred to Chris as hubby and herself as his wifey. Just like, saying

It's even worst when a man calls his man partner a "wifey"; the same goes for females.

if you’re near 40 and no one can deal with your crap, you probably suck hard IRL and cutesy new nicknames you can’t handle would be the absolute nail in the Coven for a dork store like yourself. RIP and horns down!

I'm in my early 30's. The same age Jesus (known single stud) was when he died. We're both single by choice, although for different reasons. I just don't want to be in a relationship at this time. Respect my decision. (I could pelt circles around your ass, btw, even if your wifey weren't in the picture.)

Jesus does not approve of the dark arts performed by covens.

Guy who has everything together and went to two rival schools and lives on this board has everything figured out. Add tiny munchkin to his resume too!

Yeah. I've gotten to know a number of people whom I consider good friends from this board and honestly don't give two shits that it's a "rival" board. It's about the people, dummy. So yes, I've figured it out.
