An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Nice. I picked it up last year as a way to get outside, get some exercise and some low-cost entertainment since there are a bunch of courses around where I live and I don't have to pay every time I want to play. Over that time I've gone from awful to mediocre, which I'm pleased with lol. But it gets me moving and away from a screen for a few hours, so I'll call it a win.
Sounds like my experience playing ball golf.
It's fucking hard, I totally suck, still love playing. But I play disc 10x as much because it's easier to arrange (just go), faster, and waaay cheaper.
There are so many intricacies to the form, and it's complicated further by the fact that you need to adjust your motion to fit your own body's range of mobility. But it's great and absolutely one of the best hobbies I've decided to pick up in the last few years. I tell everyone disc golf is super cheap as long as you don't like it lol. I've gone from three discs in an old backpack to a dedicated bag so full I've had to start culling discs I don't actually intend to use in a round.
