The Irrelevant Descriptor
This blog is written mostly tongue in cheek. Some points may be informative. Please provide your feedback.
If you suffer from self-irrelevancy, please seek professional advice.
Hello. I find there are a lot of people who use descriptors in their language that seem to be irrelevant. I need your help to figure out why.
For example, in the Brier (Canadian Men's Curling Championships for those who don't know) I heard Team Glenn Howard communicating their throwing weight as "heavy bumper" or "light hack". These guys are 2007 world champions, so I'm not questioning why they do it. However, isn't "heavy bumper" the same as "light bumper"? Similarly, isn't "light hack" the same as "heavy hack"? Can't you just say "hack" or "bumper", since that's where the rock would end up in theory?
And what about someone being a "great 10 handicap" or a "lousy 20 handicap" in golf. Aren't two people with the same handicap of equal ability?
Please let me know if these terms are irrelevant.
Regards,
Irrelevant
