bounce back

The raw, relentless act of rebuilding yourself after life has shattered you. It’s staring down the wreckage of your life and then busting your ass every day to rebuild it. It's digging deep. It's going from nowhere to somewhere, powered by your own damn self. The bounce back is when you quit digging the hole and claw your way out of it. It’s the quiet war you wage every day — not for applause, but to prove you never needed them anyway.

Respect the bounce back.
"Despite how bad things got , she was determined to bounce back like her life depended on it. Because it did.

Harry Bounce

A physics-defying miracle reserved for that one guy who is so stupidly lucky it makes everyone around him question their own life choices. A Harry Bounce is when someone hits an atrocious shot, makes a terrible decision, or screws up royally — and the universe immediately rewards him instead of punishing him, like it’s his personal assistant.

Named after Harry, a man who can nuke a golf ball into a zip code marked “Lost Forever,” only for it to trampoline off three trees, clip a squirrel, and roll out to the center of the fairway with perfect yardage.

Happens in every part of his life:
blows off responsibilities → gets praised
shows up late → gets the best spot
orders wrong item → gets upgraded for free

He is, without explanation, the human embodiment of a glitch in the simulation.
Ben: “Bro, Harry just hit a driver so far left it needed a passport.”
Ryan: “Relax… watch the Harry Bounce.”
(Ball pinballs through the forest like it owes him money, rolls to 95 yards out.)
Ben: “I swear this dude is cheating at life.”
Nik: “He could fall down a flight of stairs and land with a free drink in his hand.”

Harry Bounce

A cosmic stroke of outrageous good luck, named after the guy who somehow turns every disaster into a win. A Harry Bounce happens when someone screws up, hits it sideways, or makes a terrible decision — yet the universe immediately fixes it for them and hands them a perfect outcome anyway.

Originates from golf: when Harry blasts a ball deep into the trees and, instead of dying there like a normal shot, it ricochets back out and rolls to the middle of the fairway. Happens in every part of his life: traffic, work, relationships, food orders, you name it — if it should’ve gone wrong, a Harry Bounce magically saves it.
Ben: “Dude, Harry just snap-hooked his drive into the woods.”
Ryan: “Nah, watch this… Harry Bounce.”
(Ball rockets off a branch and rolls to 110 yards, dead center.)
Ben: “Unreal. If I hit that shot, I’m re-teeing.”
Nik: “Guy lives in a force field. Bad things literally can’t stick.”

noodle bounce

In the game of golf in the time of the corona virus, slices of pool noodles are placed in the hole cups making it easier to retrieve your golf ball from the cup. This lessens the spread of the virus. This also causes the ball to bounce out of the cup sometimes. When this happens the player still gets the credit for "sinking" the ball. Attributing the ball leaving the cup to a "noodle bounce".
On the last hole Chuck was going for the par and his best score. The ball went in but bounced out. We told him don't worry it was obviously a noodle bounce.
