I think there are more green desert lawn than golf courses in most places. But golf course is, of course, very wasteful and unnecessary

At least it gets used for something, unlike most people's front yards. Hell even some people's backyards I see and it looks like they never use it.

Speak for yourself! Personally I like to wear my boxers and sit on my lawn chair in my front yard while I whittle a stick to a sharp point so I can poke my broke down, rusted out, station wagon. Also every Saturday I get out there in the front and just rev the shit out of my engine at like 6AM. Gotta keep those property values down somehow ya know?
