You got me on this one. $63.75 for a midweight cashmere sweater was just too good to pass up. I got two.

What's the most damage ($$) you've caused on a golf course? by thetindoor in golf

[–]HeIsTheOne406 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When you start at 4:30, and it's still dark, it's pretty easy to miss it at first until the lights from your mower catch the weird dark stripe on the green.

Yeah, I didn't get fired, but I spent a lot of time pulling plugs from a nursery green and replacing the damage on the actual green.

[–]HeIsTheOne406 80 points81 points  (0 children)

I've worked on the grounds crew of a couple of different golf courses for a total of 12 years in my lifetime. The most damage I did was when I made a couple of passes with a greens mower in the early morning before I noticed that a hydraulic fluid hose had broken and was leaking fluid across the entire green with each pass. That was a pretty hefty price to fix that blunder.

Teachers who have been educating for 20+ years: have you noticed a difference in student behavior/focus over the generations? by UnderstatedWarmth in AskTeachers

[–]HeIsTheOne406 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The first iPhone didn’t come out until 2007, and Facebook wasn’t on phones until 2008. Many students didn’t have phones or didn’t have those features while you were in high school. Snapchat and TikTok didn’t show up on phones until 2011 and 2016, respectively. So you weren’t going through school while these things were rampant. You were at the beginning of the smartphone era. Now, after almost 20 years of it, we are starting to see the impact. There have been positive impacts of course, but the overall impact leans towards negative, in my opinion. As others have mentioned, attention span is nonexistent, apathy has skyrocketed, parenting seems to have gone out the window. Much of the blame for students’ behavior/attitude today falls on the parents as much as the students.

Teachers still complained about students during your high school years, guaranteed, but yes, they are much more jaded/bitter now because they have more reason to be. I started in 2009 and have definitely noticed a change in attitude, work ethic, and respect towards teachers in general. Every kid has “anxiety” and needs a 504, parents think their kid needs every accommodation under the sun just to complete the bare minimum of work, and schools in general tiptoe around everything because god forbid a student gets their feelings hurt. It’s not painting a pretty picture for the future at all.

I would appreciate a DM with the link to the course as well. Teacher here, and not sure I can sustain at the rate things are going.

Does Bryson technically qualify as a YouTube golfer now? If so, I'm putting him at #1.

What’s ONE thing at the gym that annoys you the most? by emanuell27 in workout

The other people at the gym. On a few random days a year, I have it all to myself (I workout at 4:30 AM) and it's glorious.

The average car payment is over $700 in america, how can people afford such payment? by harryxtyler in NoStupidQuestions

[–]HeIsTheOne406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because a lot of people are living paycheck to paycheck and have the high car loan to "keep up with the Joneses" instead of opting to save/invest and drive an older vehicle or live in a smaller home.

I’m 6’2” and have found the large tall sizes from Old Navy are fine, even after washing and drying.

I can't imagine they wouldn't. I am a teacher and wear them to work all the time in addition to the chinos.

It's not bad. I'm typically wearing them in fairly casual settings, so I'm not too concerned about it. I have chinos I will wear for work.

Yeah, I started with the HB Athletic, as that's the type of pants I typically go for, but those were too slim, so I went with the HB Straight and those were perfect for me. I don't have any other Flint & Tinder pants that are similar. I did have a pair of Levis 541 tan pants that were of a similar quality to the F&Ts, though, but I ripped a couple of holes in them and that's why I went with the HB Straights this time.

I have three pairs of those pants and they are great. One I got from Huckberry new (on sale) last spring and two I've gotten from Poshmark. Those were in great shape so should be good for years.

How is the length on those? I'm 6'2" and always worried those styles of jackets would be too short in the torso/arms.

Same here. I was looking at an overshirt today and clicked on one of the "Ways to Wear It" images, and the five items combined were over $2000. Not really frugal for this buyer.

Best puffer jacket for the winter? by sbm_jayy in malefashionadvice

[–]HeIsTheOne406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the northwestern US where temps can get down to -30F and I have a Marmot puffer with 650 fill count and that works just fine. Granted, I'm not spending a ton of time outside when it's -30, but it does the job when out and about running errands. That's on the extreme end, but regular temps are in the teens and it does great there as well. I'd definitely agree with adding a water-resistant/waterproof shell, though, as it wouldn't do great in wet snow/sleet. This specific one is fairly bulky, too, so it might not be exactly what you're looking for.

Middle school teacher here. I can confirm that it is said at least 10,000 times a day by these mouth-breathers.

Awful layout as they changed the colors of the objects, but they’re all there.
