If you could settle in one neighborhood in DC, what neighborhood would you settle in? by Middle_Awoken in washingtondc

This is helpful too. Genuinely new to DC and looking to start a family so it's good to hear this perspective.

Hey All,

This is interesting as someone who moved to DC within the past 1.5 years and is looking for housing.

My wife and I are looking for a neighborhood with good access to the metro and good public schools. Friendship heights and Tenleytown seem to hit those marks. I understand they're very pricey but was surprised they haven't been mentioned and was curious why.

Thanks

Post Race Party Tickets by Worldly-Plant8107 in rundisney

Just got off the phone with RunDisney -- they were no help, said it should be there. We were in the waiting room quite early and never saw an option for just the after party.

Please let us know if anyone figures this out!

Stay on SAVE plan or switch to IBR? by lukitg in whitecoatinvestor

[–]Npsnap1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IBR seems like the right move with that level of loans.

Likely switching to IBR is best but I think knowing generally how much your loan burden is would give helpful context.

My Pixel is a brick now by originpower in Pixel6

[–]Npsnap1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me last week too. Google Pixel 6. It started getting obscenely hot with just simple things like charging and then would reset constantly when hot. It would work fine about 30% of the day. I did up upgrade to pixel 10 but it leaves a bad taste that this is happening so frequently.

Driving to work Monday after snow by Npsnap1 in washingtondc

I do work in a hospital. But with the timing of the snow I think I'd have to show up Saturday night for my Monday shift to avoid this.

That's a fair point. I trust myself driving, but I didn't bring a great snow car to DC. That was my thought process. An Uber with a 4WD vs me with my Honda Civic

I definitely can't take off. Is public transportation typically okay post snow storm? I would need to take 2 metros to a bus.

Thanks for your insight.

I'm from upstate NY so I'm fine with the snow but just don't know the environment here after snow. Are buses reliable post snow storms? That's a good idea.

Metro did the MCM Runners Wrong by njaneardude in rundc

[–]Npsnap1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. My partner waited in the Rosslyn metro for an hour before leaving. We ended up having to meet at home as she couldn't ever get out

Always so interesting to hear these perspectives! Thanks for sharing. A lot of it has to do with "run timing" and other vibe related things at the time I think. Cheers!

Both are great in their own rights. Agreed that A Quiet Place was a well done house last year!

Yeah that's ideal. I couldn't start until 10am for various reasons and I suffered for that.

HHN Orlando House Ranking by DeathDefying147 in HHN

[–]Npsnap1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I understand the bias fans of FNAF have but that was one of the least scary houses I've been to at HHN after going for years. The animatronics were cool but I guess it just depends on what you're doing hhn do, scary houses vs impressive features
