The original game as invented by bored semi-drunk Scots was, I’m sure, a good laugh several hundred years ago with wee sticks and a random round thing.

The modern game and all its hideous capitalist/ classist cultural connotations is fucked.

Robin Williams did a great bit on this.

I have it on good authority that golf was in fact invented by Bandrobas Took during the Battle of Greenfields.
