Default Why did you decide to get gas permeable contacts?

I am thinking soft contacts would always feel better in your eye.
Am I wrong?
I don't wear gas perms, but after reading Lens 101 and some other sites like it, it seems that gas permeable contact lenses give you crisper vision, and they last longer than disposable contacts. They are uncomfortable at first, but it doesn't take long to get used to them.

Rigid gas permeables have many advantages over soft contacts, except for how they feel when you first put them in.
