Wearing glasses as a fashion accessory

[ianrauk]

Young chap just come into the office, wearing a pair of nice glasses. I asked about them and he told me that he wears them for fashion & that he has normal eyesight and that they just have clear lenses.

Kid's today eh?

 

[tyred]

WTF!!!


I wear glasses because I need them to stop bumping into things. If I didn't need them, I certainly wouldn't be wearing them.

Has he got a matching hearing aid to complete the look?

I remember think it was Tim Vincent from Blue Peter used to wear fashion glasses, think they were the rage about 10 year ago. Sad twats.

 

[Crackle]

Must admit to not getting that. I'd much prefer not to wear them.

you should wrap an elastoplast around one of the arms, a la Jack Duckworth .....see how fashionable it is then.

you may sneer, but if it works (and I'm guesssing that he has one motivation only) then who are we to judge?

 

[dellzeqq]

and did it work?

Why would anyone want to wear them unless to correct their vision

I've worn them for 20 years, and contacts are so liberating by comparison.

What, take 'em off, stumble about, paw at some unsuspecting young lady's ladybumps then offer a spluttered apology along the lines of "Ooh, awfully sorry about groping you, but I couldn't see where I was going!"?

 

[Landslide]

Probably followed by a loud SLAP!!!

I just wear my glasses for fashion. I'm only -4R and -4.75L; I'm sure that's good enough to drive without them judging by some of the half blind idiots on the road.

Top Tip - Replace the lens's with some black card. then put a pin hole in the centre of each one and the job's a goodun

(don't try this at night)

I dont recall him ever getting laid as a direct result, no.

Although, if his objectives were to look like a twat and have the whole school laugh at him, it very much worked.
