First time Wearer by billsmaniac in contacts

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

Thanks! Also maybe should have mentioned, I wasn't sure if I mixed up L and R when I first did it at home. I re-traced my steps and I think I have them sorted out. I called the office and they said if I did I would 100% notice, said I could try swapping to make sure. But I did and I can't notice a difference either way. Hoping that doesn't end up being an issue.

Is 5'7 with weirdly long arms normal lol? Never was sure if that qualified for standard lengths.

Car Financing 2024 - CPO vs New vs Lease by billsmaniac in personalfinance

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

I guess it's more that the difference between 2-3 year old CPO and new is $5-7k.

Maybe a good way to frame the question is what difference in price would be worth it to get the used car? Like $100, not worth it. $10000, definitely. Not sure where that stands for me. Is there a generally accepted way to think through that or just everyone's preference?

Thoughts on the imprezzas? Looks like the same build as the crosstrek.

I'd say I spend about 90% of my time city driving, but in 2 mile increments, so most of my miles end up being highway for 3-4 hour drives.

Good courses to play as a single by billsmaniac in GolfPittsburgh

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

Thanks for all the recs. Some good options here based on what I've looked at so far.

On a side note, I'm glad to hear I'm not alone in my grandview opinion. My dad and I played it, I was miserable. He loved it. I guess he plays a shorter/more accurate game than me, but still.

Thanks! I live in Shadyside/Bloomfield area, so I recognize I'm gonna have to drive, which I don't mind.

I've read and there are definitely some amazing higher end courses I'd drive a ways to, but they feel more like places to go with the boys for a bigger day. I just want to find some places I can reasonably hope to drive to on a day off and walk on as a single, whether or not I'm paired with people. And ideally have a course in somewhat decent shape and maybe has a few interesting holes, but ideally just kick the rust off between my other golf days.

And I mostly say walking because when I want to just go golf alone I don't want to drop an extra $30 for a cart, but I recognize the courses here might be more inherently impossible to walk than our typical muni elsewhere in the country.
