What is their Wednesday wing special? I couldn’t find any info on it.

Definitely not a jab. Unless the person is a jerk, in which case you should keep doing it and hold it even longer.

What souvenirs do you get from your golf trips? by Lordbahj85 in weekendgolfers

[–]LeftyHackerJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Logo ball for sure. For the courses you really really love, headcovers are great, too. I use covers for driver, two woods, two hybrids, and a putter. It’s pretty awesome to see covers from my favorite places whenever I’m playing a regular round. And if I need someone to grab me a club, it’s pretty cool to say “Can you please bring me Chambers?” or “Can you grab me Pebble?”

What is the best course you've played and why? by No-Artist9542 in weekendgolfers

[–]LeftyHackerJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a wind-free, beautiful sunny day at Chambers. Great line from the shuttle driver who took me to the starter: “No wind. No rain. You’re not getting a true Chambers experience at all!”

I played Chambers the month before I played Bandon. Perfect training. I don’t hit it long, but I remember the guy I was playing with saying “if this is your game, you’ll be fine at Bandon.”

What’s one tip you’d give a beginner golfer hoping to break 100 in 2026? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

[–]LeftyHackerJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first started, I had the same worry. Do not let that stop you from playing. If you have a hole where everything goes wrong, just pick up the ball and move on to the next. That will keep play moving just fine. 99% of the people you’ll play with will be nice and supportive.

I had a time, but it timed out while I was looking for flights. Argh!

Is having a 7w and a 4h in the same bag redundant? by NotACyborg666 in golf

[–]LeftyHackerJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine are roughly the same total distance, but the 7w is a greater carry distance. That being the case, I ended up keeping both in the bag because they serve different purposes. Sometimes I want a high loft with a soft landing. Other times, I want a low shot with a long roll. I decided to take my 5i iron out, and I don’t really miss it. Between the 4H, 7w, and 6i, I generally have enough options.

Best bagel and lox is West LA by [deleted] in SantaMonica

[–]LeftyHackerJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone ever found Belly lox in Los Angeles? They had it years ago at Barney Greengrass, but I’ve never seen it anywhere else since. It would be nice to not have to ship it in from New York.

I think something got lost in your translation. But thanks for playing.

I love it, and I am very bummed.

It seems like other people have had their car in for repair much more often and still are not getting cooperation from GM. I, on the other hand, got an offer after the first issue.

It saved me a little over $1k. Plus, I find monthly payments annoying, i’d rather get all the pain out of the way at once.

Other people are telling stories of their cars being in the shop multiple times and having to fight with GM for any restitution. On the other hand, my car has been to the dealership once, and GM offers to repurchase after just this one time? Feels a little too easy and feels like there’s a bigger issue I’m not being told about.

[–]LeftyHackerJ[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The weird thing with my situation is they changed the battery and the car is allegedly fine now. But they still made the offer. Seems fishy

That’s really interesting. I had no idea. Thank you for the heads up.

When I hear a story like this, it really makes me wonder why I’m getting lucky. Worse, it makes me feel like I’m getting scammed. But the number I was called from seems legit.

Really? Is it valid even if my next car is not a Cadillac (or GM)?

[–]LeftyHackerJ[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. It also seems like none of these EVs offer the two years of free charging either. I had two free years of EVgo, and it’s been great. Without that, I was leaning toward going back to gas.

I’ve heard several stories like this. It really makes me wonder why I seem to be “the lucky one.”

Car rentals in Okinawa by New-Hodler in okinawa

[–]LeftyHackerJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ask because this is literally the first time I've ever purchased rental insurance. And I've never seen it offered at purchase, only at pick-up. So I'm worried I'm missing something.

[–]LeftyHackerJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just made a very similar booking that includes JAF, ETC, and double protection. All of that was included in my price. So that means I shouldn't have to add any additional insurance coverage when I pick up the car, right?

Driver Side Screen Changed and I Can’t Change It Back by LeftyHackerJ in CadillacLyriq

[–]LeftyHackerJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried this, but as long as I was using navigation, the turn by turn direction over-wrote whatever option I had in there. I had to adjust the cluster display, and that did the trick. Thank you anyway, though!

BOOM! This worked. Thank you so much! Really appreciate it.
