Female drivers. We should have never given them licenses.
Yeah I said it.

Walking up to the first tee and a threesome is just teeing up. The first two hit their balls into the adjacent fairway, the third hacks his ball with an iron into a full 300 yards of fairway.
(sigh) Gonna be a long nine holes. (11-18-2020, 01:14 PM)homebiscuit Wrote: Walking up to the first tee and a threesome is just teeing up.

Trying to keep everybody (my wife) happy at home by concentrating on my remodeling. But it drives me crazy when I walk the dogs and go by the culdesac and see the 5th, 6th, and 7th holes. Not that I could play right now anyway with this gigantic scar/stitches on my arm where they took out the melanoma. I'll venture out Thanksgiving weekend...probably by myself. ![]() We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Tell the wife that if you can swing a hammer, you can swing a golf club.
When ordering a pizza, you look for the millions of “coopins” the chains send you. But your wife just throws them away as junk mail. Pizza discounts are NOT junk mail.

Pizza discounts are NOT junk mail. If ordering online, Google can find them. Usually retailmenot has one I can use. The other night I discovered a neat feature of the Edge browser in that it detects the checkout page and offers to apply a number of coupons and then automatically tries each one to see if it is valid for that particular vendor. For example, I was ordering Papa John's and it had 15 potential coupons. It automatically fills in the offer code to see if it is valid. If not, it goes on to the next one. It found one good for a 25% discount. Purty neat. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

But your wife just throws them away as junk mail. Pizza discounts are NOT junk mail. Papa Johns is exactly where I ordered. 56 bucks later we have one pie some wings and a tip for the delivery guy. I was aware it was way too much. But I had a long day and just wanted some food. I guess we exhausted what we got from the store and the wife was working to hard from home to not work from home and go back to the store. She should have never thrown them coupons out.
Something that has always irritated me is when a contractor or service person parks on my yard when they are not working at my house. The other day, I took a long walk, and when I got back to my house, there was a plumber's truck pulled off onto my grass. I looked in the truck, and there was no one in the driver's seat. My new neighbor, whom I had not yet met, happened to be walking out her front door, and saw me looking into the truck.
She says, "He's working over here." So I said, "Well, why doesn't he park over there?" and she replied, "There are too many cars in my driveway." So I got really irritated and said, "Why is he parked in my yard? Tell him to park at your house." She says okay, and I went inside my house, thoroughly irritated by then. Of course, I immediately regretted popping off to my new neighbor like that. We have a friendly neighborhood, and she must think I'm an [BLEEP]. I should have handled it better. But still, I do get very irritated when people who are not working at my house pull off onto my grass. Yes, I've become one of those guys. But then I thought, if I don't set her straight about telling people to park on my yard, she'll just do it again. And again and again.

The answer might surprise you. It's highly unlikely that your property begins at the edge of the street.

I’m in Riverside and we have driveways and on street parking. I’m not gonna lie, I get annoyed when someone parks on the street in front of my house if they’re not visiting me.
