I got PTSD, man. I saw "admired VT from afar" and immediately thought of Fuente, who said exactly the same thing when he was first hired. We all know how that went.

From the google AI overview:

Switzerland isn't directly named after a font, but the popular font "Helvetica" is named after Switzerland, specifically the Latin name "Helvetia" which refers to the country; essentially, the font took its name from Switzerland, not the other way around.

Run rule shutout of a ranked team? I'll take that! ... though I'm guessing Biberty won't be ranked next week.

I have enough cheap stuff, but not enough stuff that will last. I stopped buying the effect games shirt packages when they stopped fitting after one wash. Meanwhile I can still wear the stuff from the twenty-teens, so it wasn't like I needed them. I was doing so to support the school, but they are better off with me giving $5 than giving them $10 and having them ship me garbage.

From my initial searching, the Barefoot and Pawley's were already in my short list, so that's great feedback.

Intrigued by the Witch, I'll do some searches after work and let you know if I have additional questions.

We'd likely play a round Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so three total.

Avoid Legends. At all costs. It's the pinnacle of bro trip golf and not in a good way. You will be looking at 6 hour rounds. And if you buy the package- the breakfast sucks and the lunch is a choice of hot dog or chicken salad sandwich. The Witch is a fun novelty course which wouldn't be bad to try. Other recommendations are: Fazio Barefoot, The "Big Cat" courses are decent but actually in NC. Long Bay is a Nicklaus design if you are so inclined and Pawley's plantation is a very good course.

I'm heading down to Myrtle Beach at the end of April for a family golf outing. It's looking like 8-10 folks. We've done this a few years now, but this is our first time in the Myrtle Beach area. I'm looking for some recommendations from folks that know the area.

We usually play team scrambles and play 1 round per day. Our group has folks ranging from 40 to 82 years old, with a few beginners, so the scramble format keeps the outing less serious and more about getting together and having a good time.
I started looking at courses and there's quite a few. I'm sure we'll enjoy just about anything but I always like to hear what fellow Hokies, and even more so, fellow TKPers, have to say.

Honestly, the commonwealth cup seemed pretty cheapy so I passed on this one. Really glad I did, this looks worse than something you'd find at the dollar store

Thanks for the info! Flying out tonight and have a tee time tomorrow morning for Turtle Creek. Might squeeze in another round on Monday before leaving depending on schedule, so I'll check out the other courses you mentioned.

Yeah the form is 1980s football helmet with a Mohawk which looking at the box made it all the more disappointing.

The paint job is comically bad. The helmet shape is ridiculous as well. Like, what is with the giant mohawk bump down the middle?
