Golf Score

The most fudged, inaccurate, yet, flaunted number given by majority of golfers. Hit half of your drives into the woods? Mulligan. Second shot hit behind a tree? Move it. Flubbed a chip? Shhh, nobody saw it. Adding up your score at the end of the day? Nobody remembers that triple bogie I got on the second hole, lets just say I parred it.
Charlie: So how'd you finish today?

Andy: Shot great, only 2 over par. How bout yourself?

Charlie: Great round, great round. Actually shot 2 under today. Can't wait to celebrate tonight and tell my wife---possibly get some victory sex.

Andy: Really? That's pretty impressive considering you took 11 strokes on the last hole. I counted.

Charlie: Well, I didn't count my drive that went into the water, the 4 shots that I nailed into tree branches, the 3 sand shots, and one of the putts.

Andy: You forgot to mention you pulled the ball out of the sand with your hand and threw it onto the green, 3 inches from the pin.

Charlie: Yeah, well that's probably where my 4th sand shot would've gone.

Andy: Fair enough.

Charlie: Yeah, overall, I'm pretty happy with my golf score. Two under isn't bad.
