  1. He's a full blown deplorable and isn't even trying to hide it any longer. What in the actual fuck is he even talking about?

  3. I never pulled the trigger and looking at current prices, holy shit I should have. I still want one and @Spoosner bumping this thread reminded me.
  4. My dad had one of these when I was a very small child - a baby shit green Ford Pinto. He loves to tell the story of how he had to drive it from Houston to Cleveland for sales training that he would be at for over a month. He had all of his shit loaded up in it and decided to stop at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway along the way. Back then you could pay a few bucks and drive your car around the track. He paid his money and gave it all she had - I think he got it up to ~75 mph and said it was wobbling like hell going around the curves. He also had a Vega and said he'd pull into the service station and tell them to fill her up with oil and check the gas. #dadjokes
  5. Are a significant number of "poor middle class blokes" out there playing in poker games where they can win (or lose) $600 all the time? Facts don't care about your feelings. Or somesuch.
  6. Yea, that one kind of feels like it's for all the marbles.
  7. This was my first thought too. We obviously don't know the full story of her situation, but to watch all that shit from a front row seat and still put up with calls demanding she do something during Thanksgiving lunch? She either doesn't have a lot of intestinal fortitude.....or she's fully embracing the GQP bullshit brigade. Not sure I'd have the ability to remain polite at dinner with my cousin in that situation.
  8. Nobody loves Mike Pence. Nobody. GTFOHWTMFBS
  9. Just another small government conservative, nothing to see here.
  10. I think we can all agree on that. It's like he was actively trying to look like a pathetic slob.
  11. Not Twitter, Tesla - it looks like there is a BOD. https://ir.tesla.com/corporate
  12. Is it possible for the Tesla BOD to remove him as CEO? If not, then it seems like they are going to continue to get falcon punched as well due to his antics. I knew Twitter was going to be a dumpster fire after him taking over, but this thing is spiraling quicker than I thought it would.
  13. Yea, you're missing out. I was sort of in the same boat as you ~10 years ago and was still playing with the 845s that I used for High School tournaments. I got a set of Titleist AP2s and it made a world of difference. More distance, more spin, more feel, etc. I'm pretty close to wanting to move to something more forgiving, but these still feel so damn good when you flush one. If you've been playing with those since ~1990, then yea, shit has changed in 32 years. A bunch. You should find a way to go bang around some of the latest tech and see for yourself.
  14. I got all 14 re-gripped on Saturday while watching football in the garage. Everything went smoothly, but getting all of the old tape off was a PITA and took longer than I thought it would. They look and feel great though. I think I'm really going to like the thicker grips. I'm playing in a 2 day Stableford deal at Whispering Pines starting tomorrow. Maybe these new grips will keep me from losing quite as many balls this time around. I doubt it.
  15. This dude is coming apart at the seams right in front of our eyes.
  16. Is that for scraping off the old tape? I've got a workbench with a vise at one end of it and bought a kit with tape/solvent/cutter. The only thing I'm a little concerned about is getting the grips lined up properly so they don't mindfuck me at setup if they are a little off kilter. All the grips I've put on in the past were wraps were that didn't matter as much. Thank you for the tips!
  17. I ended up going with these, bought them at a golf store in Dallas but will have to put them on myself. I've done it before with no problems but will need to watch a few videos to make sure I don't forget anything. I really like the way they felt and from everything I read they should last for a long time too.
  18. What kind of grips do you guys prefer? I haven't re-gripped mine in ages and am looking around on Amazon for options. I know Winn makes nice stuff, but $105 for 13 grips seems a little crazy. Champkey looks similar. Anyone familiar with those? ETA - Golf Pride gets a lot of love too but are even more expensive than the Winn - more like $175 for 13.
  19. Well, at least he bought it at the top. So he's got that going for him....which is nice.
  20. He only has to sell 50,000,000 blue checks to recoup each $1B. (if each sub is 100% margin) .... I'm no mathematician, but I don't think he's going to do "just fine."
  21. I think this is spot on. The GQP trolls live for Lib tears. That's why the other scat sites like Gab, Parler, Truth, etc. don't ever take off - there are no libs to troll. It won't take too long at this rate for the libs to leave Twitter and then the far right trolls will have no one to troll. Twitter will bleed out while Elon and his creditors lose a metric fuckton of money. Yay!
