Of course that is entirely dependant on the beer factor.
I try to stay away from alcohol when playing golf. My game goes straight downhill, and it already resides in a valley.
Meh, I was half joking. I usually don't drink when I play. UNLESS I have a REALLY bad, unrecoverable, front nine.
Then all bets are off.
Moved from 40 years on a ranch to the middle of the city, and man am I learning some lessons on how to deal with door to door salespeople.

Answer the door in your underwear.

Why did you do that???
Are you still growing the grapes or did you get out of that?

Why bother with putting something on?
I like to play games with them. One time a dude came by and I said “mmmm your the escort? Come on in. He awkwardly starts to sell me a roof, I interrupted and said, not interested, but come on in. Lmao. He couldn’t leave fast enough.
After many times pissing my wife off with how rude I was to solicitors, we eventually screened in the porch area and locked the screen door. Best $ I’ve ever spent.

Did you give up the farming life? Do we have a reverse Green Acres going on here?
I wouldn't mind a bottle of wine.. Haven't had one in a while..
Still farming all the same stuff, my house was actually a separate piece of land that's a citrus ranch now.
Almost every morning I wake up to the sound of cars and I think I have invaders before I realize I'm in a city now

Kinda! I didn't know I had to call and have Utilities hooked up until the water stopped working lol. Also, picking up doggy poo is a thing now.

Monopoly money, not the real thing? Apparently she wasn't fooled by that pair of rolled up socks.

answer the door with a claw hammer in hand. Or a very hungry German Shepherd.

I recommend a straight claw, not curved. Better flesh penetration!
A large dog door with the German Shepard's picture on it helps too......... just rattle it a little as if you're unlatching it.
You could just answer the door in your tighty whities and an inflatable baseball ball. Oh, and talk like Beavis.

You really need a food-stained white t-shirt, a half-smoked cigarette hanging out of your mouth, and about a day and a half razor stubble to complete the picture.
I've settled on the I'm a renter defense.
