5 points if you can point out france on a map, dumbass. it seems that you are the disgrace to society. and if you did your homework, you'd know that america would have lost the war for independence if not for france. so stfu and go back to your log cabin and practice your banjo.

The homework that would show that Americans enter important wars after everyone else, at the last possible moment and start ones when there's a government they don't like?

What a moron you are.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I COMPLETELY agree with you on that one. LOL. I'm an American and proud but you're exactly right!

I can't even believe this thread took up this many pages.

Direct your comments to the OP and not Americans in general.  I don't think you'd really want to start an America vs the World argument here now do you?

Lol, what an entertaining post. Senorchipotle has 1800 posts in TWO years (he joined in 6/2009, not 2010, genius); I guess he wasn't far off the mark by calling you a dumbass.

Bonus points for bigotry, too. You're gonna go places, kid.

I love how posters on sites like this berate individuals they know nothing about. My comments were directed at the French....Travel there then comment.  The French generally hold total disdane for Americans and their difficulty with Bubba is just common to their difficulty about anything American. I propositioned that in my trite comment.  Anyone with the slightest intelligence would pick up on that.  I'm no kid and have traveled the world quite a bit. You travel all over Europe and everyone loves Americans.  Go to France, Quite a different story.  That's my experience. Maybe a few of you posters should get a first hand experience in France to know of what I speak.  So will the French invite and pay Bubba to come back? But of course.  Will Bubba go??????And 1800 posts in 2 years I guess means he has a life......Yea! I guess you think I actually read these posts closely.  Yea....My aim was to initiate dialogue away from the idiocy of Bubbadumby....The only dumbasses are the dumbasses dumb enough to be concerned about what the arrogant French think about Bubba. If I have offended you, good that was my intention. So many smartass punks think they know so much and have so little real world experience.  And am I a bigot. No I just don't buy anything French.

I love how posters on sites like this berate individuals they know nothing about:

Why assume we all know nothing about Bubba?

Travel there then comment :

Believe it or not, many Europeans travel widly and have passports and everything too.

The French generally hold total disdane for Americans :

I wonder why that could be? Cheese eating surrender monkeys anyone?

I'm no kid and have traveled the world quite a bit .:

Really? Can you not act like it then?

....The only dumbasses are the dumbasses dumb enough to be concerned about what the arrogant French think about Bubba :

You have missed the point (quelle suprise). Bubba's actions in France did not only upset / annoy the French.

If I have offended you, good that was my intention :

Was your intention also to turn up to a battle of wits unarmed?

    Was your intention also to make yourself QWQ

did the little baby get his feelings hurt by the big bad french man? i'm sure the french were rude to you, and i wouldn't blame them. you're the american tourist who goes to other countries, doesn't bother to learn any of their customs or language, and expects them to show you where mcdonalds is when you ask them in english. as a matter of fact, i used to live in france, and have encountered americans such as yourself with no respect for other cultures. and it's damn embarrassing. so do the rest of us a favor and stay in west virginia next time.

Yes, because "engage the obvious troll" is always the wisest move. :-P

I have travelled to France many times and the French are wonderful people - as are most nationalities.

You will only encounter "arrogant" French if you walk into a restaurant or shop or hotel and immediately start speaking English and then continue doing it more slowly and loudly when it is clear that you aren't being understood.  They are icredibly friendly and polite people.

A good example of this type of thing is a converstaion I had whilst in France with a couple of Americans.

One woman said "We had a problem in Paris because noone at our hotel spoke English".

I said "You had a problem at your hotel in Paris because you don't speak French."  The irony was completely lost on her.

Another classic  was on  a train in Italy. We were winding our way through the mountains and there was a beautiful river down in tyhe valley.

Loud American exclaims "That's a perty little river down there but you know what? I wouldn't wash my goddamned feet in it."

I've witnessed awful behaviour by many nationalities in many countries, but you don't condemn a whole nation because of the actions of a few.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

    • I agree with @klineka & @DaveP043 above.  When a new member first joins the club they cold be told that they are not eligible for tournaments until they have an established HCP.  As you said, it only takes a few rounds.  If they do not to post HCP that was their choice and choices have consequences.  If playing in the tournament is important to them then they should step up and establish an HCP.  Maybe they miss the 1st tournament, is that a real big deal?  And if it is a "Big Deal" to them then they had the opportunity to establish the HCP. As for not knowing how to report for HCP I assume your club has a pro and they should be able to assist in getting the scores reported and I suspect out of state courses may also have staff that can assist if asked.

    • Cool here's my tweak, "If a player’s ball lies in the general area and there is interference from exposed tree roots or exposed rocks that are in the fairway or 1 club length from the fairway the tree roots and exposed rocks are treated as ground under repair. The player may take free relief under Rule 16.1b.[But relief is not allowed if the tree roots only interfere with the player’s stance.]
    • I would never do the extended warranty on the $50 slow cooker.  I also routinely reject the extended service plans on those toys we buy for the grand-kids.  I do consider them on higher cost items and will be more likely to get one if the product has a lot of "Electronic Tech" that is often the problem longer-term.  I also consider my intended length of ownership & usage.  If my thought is it would get replaced in 2-3 years then why bother but if I hope to use it for 10 years then more likely to get the extension. I did buy out a lease about a year ago.  Just prior to the lease end date the tablet locked up and would not function.  I got it repaired under the initial warranty and would not have bought it out if they had not been able to fix it since IMO once electronic issues start in a car they can be hard to track down & fix.  They did fix it but when I bought out the lease I paid up for the extended warranty the would cover electronic failures because my intent is to keep that car for another 8-10 years and I just do not trust the electronics to last.  Last week the touch screen went black and was unresponsive.  It reset on the 2nd time I restarted the car but that is exactly how the last malfunction started.  I fully expect to have a claim on that on repair under the extended warranty.  I do not recall the exact cost to fix last time since I did not pay it but I think it was @ $700-$800 and I suspect that will be higher next time.
    • Have you looked at Model Local Rule F-9 Relief from Tree Roots in or Close to Fairway?  You could extend this to cover exposed rocks.  The rule is recommended to be used only for areas relatively near the fairway, a player who hits a shot 20 yards in the woods doesn't really deserve relief.   Players can always take Unplayable Ball relief, they're not required to play it from a rock or a root.  Of course, they hate to take the penalty stroke too.
