I don't even wear sunglasses... I don't understand glasses. I would rather not be able to see than wear glasses... but I would probably think differently if I couldn't see. Not probably, definately. Ok, I change my answer. Well, not answer, but thing. *nod*

I'm sorry, I really am, I cannot comprehend what you just said. So uh, lets summarise:

1. You don't wear sunglasses.
2. You don't understand glasses.
3. You'd rather not be able to see than wear glasses.
4. You'd think differently if you couldn't see.
5. You know that 4 is definitely correct.

...

So basically, what you are attempting to say is "I don't understand glasses because I don't need them and would rather be partially sighted than wear glasses, until I actually need them, then I would use them"?

Okay, I gotcha.

1. He considers glasses extremely bothersome.
2. He thinks he'd rather go without glasses than be able to see well.
3. He considers this position, then decides it's not true.
4. He reaffirms his new position.

In real life, that would be considered thinking out loud. This would be called...thinking online? Is that even possible?

I don't know, is it? I don't usually bother thinking at all.

You should know that I left myself wide open like that on purpose

You set 'em up, I knock 'em down..

Xerophyte · #69 Post by **Xerophyte** » Sat Apr 21, 2007 10:32 pm

Yes.

People keep asking me why I won't just switch to contacts. Truth is I like my glasses too much to give them up. :roll:

Well, it was late when I posted that... approximately 12:49 am. I don't really make sense even when I'm fully awake and aware.

I do think out loud, and people tell me it annoys them. Then I tell them I hate them. No. Not really. I just think it.

Nope, I wear contacts =)

Yes I am, though I don't really need to be. They were just for school, but I love glasses. They give character!

Mere · #73 Post by **Mere** » Thu May 03, 2007 2:09 am

Yup, at first I only needed them to read but now I need to wear them all the time. I've grown used to them too, it feels really weird when I'm not wearing them.

Yea, every now and then. I don't mind them - takes a bit of getting used to though (only just had them for about 2 or 3 months). But because of the work that I do, it's easier for me to wear contacts. Wearing the glasses would just get in the way and become a hassle.

Indeed I am, since I was about 6.
