Comparing golf to investing 😉

From time to time, when there's little else on television, I find myself watching golf.

In many tournaments (not the Masters, though), there's nearly always someone who shouts ***Get in the hole!!!*** as soon as the clubface strikes the ball -- certainly \*before\* the swing is complete.

It's almost like it's a contest, to see who can be the FIRST to shout ***Get in the hole!!!*** for each golfer.

There are some similarities over here on /r/investing. Is there also a contest, to be the FIRST to shout ***AI slop!!!*** after any post that isn't *"I' m   n e w   t o   i n v e s t i n g,   w h a t   s h o u l d   I   do?"*

And related: some politicians just canNOT say "left" without saying "Radical" in front of it. Does the same apply to "slop"? Is **everything** that is AI-advised really "slop", or is some of it actually useful and/or well-written? Do you get penalized if you DON'T say "slop" after "AI"?

I just don't grasp what the phobia is about posts that have em dashes and proper paragraphs.
