Default Basket anchor party at Woodland Creek Park (Lacey, WA)! Feb. 2nd @ 9am.
After many, many great work party at the course, its finally time to get some metal in the ground! We will be planting anchors on Saturday, Feb. 2nd, @ 9am. The club will be sponsoring lunch for all that show up. We will be placing the actual baskets the following Saturday.

TYVEK, I wouldn't expect you to understand....nor do I really care if it has anything to do with disc golf. Just stoked that we are putting in anchors and baskets soon.

the reason i asked is because that "term" has become a comment that is made when people are slinging insults towards americans and stereotyping our behavior. when you see "MERICA" it is never meant with good intentions behind it. so naturally when i saw you post that, it made me think that somehow you were trying to insult us and trying to tie us in with some sort of redneck stereotype that usually goes along with that comment.

maybe that is not how you intended it to be, but for future reference that is not a "supportive or good" term.

and to follow that up, what do you mean that you wouldnt "expect me to understand"??? i mean clearly i understand the terminology better than you do, i was trying to find out why you would say something like that.
please explain why you didnt expect me to understand.
thanks.

when my daughter says "merica" it is not a slam to the usa, but just used as a redneck term. picture a deliverance character shouting with excitement.
thats the way i take it.

I don't think the insult "us" comment works here, Orion. Ol' DRGNBLOOD has been out to quite a few of the work parties recently, even going as far as bringing a friend to help out. Unfortunately for him, he's one of "us"!

If I am included in that "us"
I am a redneck, and on occasion, proud of it

this is why I hate the interweb
so much gets lost in translation and/or taken out of context
and the hardest for me (or on me) sarcasm

I'm pretty sure I can say that I fight for the freedom to say what I want. In the service it's not used as a derogatory term, it's more of a " Fuck Yeah " term to describe excitement in my circle. And yes, maybe you do understand terminology better than me...and for that you deserve a fucking cookie, and I will be sure to have one for you at the next work party should you be there. MERICA!!

^ For those having trouble keeping up...I'm fairly certain that's a little redneck sarcasm. Funny sh*t.

Keep up the good work at your new course.

^ For those keeping up...^ this is less sensitive, less sarcasm, more IN YOUR FACE true feelings ^ (and many good rednecks & redneck supporters would likely agree) - GOOD ADVICE!... Or as nice good US of A dudes would simply say "F- Yeah!" or "M-E-R-I-C-A !!!"

this thread should be used as an example for all internet board users

on how to misunderstand, or have something taken the wrong way
then, continue to have things escalate, on said internet board, by going back and forth until, everyone else is wondering what the hell happened?

coming from someone who enjoys being around, and doing stuff, with both of you guys

I am left wondering....
how can two of the nicest, greatest guys, that have never really met/been around each other,
are now getting pissy with each other?

i think you both should relax, chalk all this up to a misunderstanding, or at least agree to disagree on the the proper (or improper) usage of a slang term
because you both come from different regions and backgrounds

then when you finally meet, you will say, wow that was weird, this guy is all right
