Rolling so Hard with New Glasses

[Atma]

Straight up reppin Run DMC.

Hard not to move like a fucking God in these bitches, even with crutches. 

And I can see stuff now, too. In hi def. Everywhere I look, I see lots of stuff very clearly.

Nobody cares and this thread will be buried in 24 hrs.


But right now? Yaaaaaaaaaaaaas.

I have eleventy million pairs of glasses and can only wear a few of them for any considerable amount of time.

I could go into vast detail, but suffice it to say, they always either hurt behind the ears, or the view out of 'em is just plain fuckin' wonky.

Currently I wear a pair of 7 year old glasses/prescription and they're all I can tolerate. I've gotten new prescriptions over the years, but they're all 'off' and look too sharp and are too taxing on the eyes... I just won't put up with it.

I can see great out of these 7 year old prescriptions, and I have absolutely no problem reading all the things I need to read. My theory?? My eyes got BETTER instead of worse over the years.

I have been going around without my glasses on lately when I can and it's been pretty enjoyable too. Can't see too well, but fuck it, as long as your surroundings are familiar it's no big problem.

I haven't upped my prescription in years, and apparently my eyesight has plummeted, because putting these on was like discovering a new superpower or something. Also... I *never* have owned glasses that look this good. I don't know if it's because they're made by Ray-ban, or what. They have this really nice old school quality, and the frames are this deep pewter gray, and very lightly textured instead of smooth. 

You on the other hand always look ridiculously wonderful in glasses:

Thanks, I agree and I think glasses are great accessories in some cases, but that is typically more widely seen with sunglasses.

I have had great sunglasses in my life, but these days I don't tend to wear them anymore... but I keep an emergency pair clean and within reach when I'm driving!!!

I learned how important that was when I was driving through Monument Valley toward AZ one afternoon.

[Mister Obvious]

There was a time prior to that though in the PACNW that I realized sun visors don't work in late afternoon sun ROFL!!!

I don't think I even had any sunglasses for relief that time, I had to just power through it. That's probably when I learned that it was important to have them... but man, there was no powering through Monument Valley late afternoon driving without sunglasses, it was like being on another planet.

i've apparently developed a slight astigmatism, my new glasses are the first pair to correct that. the thing that always gets me is being able to see the stars clearly again.
