Humorous golf terms

In episode 2 of the second season of "Bad Sisters," one character says that his golf nickname is "Adolph" because he "takes two shots in the bunker."  After I finished laughing, I did a quick search, which led me to a list assembled in a Golf Monthly forum, several of which I have abstracted below.  Golfers will understand what these mean:
A Salman Rushdie - an impossible read

A Rock Hudson - thought it was straight, but it wasn't

A Cuban - needs one more revolution

An Adolf Hitler - two shots in the bunker

A Glenn Miller - kept low and didn't make it over the water

A Rodney King - over-clubbed

An O.J. Simpson - got away with it

A Princess Grace - should have taken a driver

A Princess Di - shouldn't have taken a driver

A Jean-Marie LePen - a long way right

A circus tent - a BIG top

A Ryanair - flies well but lands a long way from the target
Many are in poor taste; the egregiously bad ones I left behind at the link.

  2. hoho, those are rough. in a similar-ish spirit, i wish y’all across the pond that you make it like the delta crash: all survive but the right wing explodes.

  3. We need the far left and the far right. Not necessarily for their brilliance or their might. We need them so we all can tell the difference between batshit crazy and everybody else!
