imfucked imfucked

so yesterday it was time for bed. lately i've been going to bed nice and early for a number of reasons (primarily to be on a schedule closer to my girlfriend's and also to avoid my roommates so homework is easier to do). so it was like 7 or 8 or something and I get up from my computer to go to bed.

out of nowhere BOINGG!!! my glasses just go FLYING off my face. literally. they just jump off of my face and land some distance away. out of absolutely fucking nowhere. i get up from my computer and they just leap like ten feet across my room.

i go and gather them up and realize that one of the lenses is gone. fanfuckingtastic. i dig around and find it. nice. i go back to my desk and try to fix these fuckers. after squinting like a chinaman for about half an hour trying to get these things back together, i finally realize that a screw is gone. i scour my room and find that it is nowhere to be found. i'm sure that my being nearly blind isn't helping with any of this.

so now i am glassesless. i have a major 6-10 page thesis prospectus due in a couple of HOURS (although i will most likely be okay to get an extension when i bring him my broken glasses so he sees whats going on) and a paper due on monday about a novel that i haven't begun reading yet and WONT BE ABLE TO. on top of this I ended up not getting to sleep until a few hours after I had planned to, and thus ended up sleeping late and missing my window of oppurtunity to work an extra few hours on my major paper. not that it matters since i couldn't have SEEN IT anyway. i'll probably skip my classes and work today since WHATS THE POINT IF IM BLIND

i called my mommy but she doesnt know when she'll be able to come take me to get new ones;-;

so WHERE IS THIS GOING? i need to ask you guys for advice on glasses pricing and shit. i've had this pair for like 4 years anyway so i'm cool with getting some new ones.

also share your glasses horrorstories if you have any. ALSO this is a "if i disappear for a few days it's because i CANT SEE THE COMPUTER SCREEN"

Even if I hate you for changing my name to something so faggoty, it is fucked up that you did loose your glasses and can't see shit :/

See you (when you get new glasses)

this just in: i rubberbanded it right across the lens so they are functional but look totally goofy. so A-OK i can still work on paper i just can't go out in public. im still going to need new ones ;-;
 
Glasses don't cost that much. At least here in texas. I can get them for $40 I don't know about you. If they're prescribed [[I'm not to sure if thats the correct term]] but if a doctor says you have to wear them you can get them for cheap. And if not just get a walmart pair for about 15 [[or less]] till you can get some new ones.

And when I was younger and wore glasses I was jump roping once and mis judged a hop, took my back leg out, slammed my face on the ground and just completely fucked my glasses. My nose was also bleeding like hell. I never wore glasses again. Although I need them now. And I never jump roped again either. :x

But sorry to hear that Des. Guess you won't be able to take me up on my Soulja Boy challenege then? :[

But yeah glasses shouldn't cost to much. And they usually have some deal where you can pay 120 and get two pairs or something like that. I'm not to sure.

Why not get contacts though?
 
Why not just get a repair kit, or go to any mall glasses store, and have them put it back together?  Most places will do it for free, or just charge a couple bucks.

Because that makes to much sense.
>:3

I forgot all about those places in the mall!

Good thinking Asch :thumb:

Aside from them being disgusting, expensive and a humongous hassle, I like the way I look in glasses.

I need new ones anyway. Like I said, these are about four years old, and I'm sure my prescription needs to be updated. Might as well do that now.
 
lol my glasses are so shitty, the lenses pop out all the fucking time. If I didn't have like 4 repair kits around I'd be sunk :eek:

But yeah there're tons of places that'll patch your shit up for you for cheap or free. Those tiny screws cost like a penny.

Speaking of which I need new ones :/
 
I wore my glasses to see Reel Big Fish.



...

Needless to say I didn't wear them home again. Well, actually, some random drunk friend came up to me wearing something that looked remotely like a piece of wire twisted into a figure eight. I still have them as a souvineer. :S



(But idc it costs a whole £5 to replace them lol national health service)
 
My girlfriend has a pair of $200 prescription glasses, and a $5 Dollar General pair.

Guess which ones help her see better?

Careful, this one's a doozey.
 
Not really glasses, but I just recently changed from glasses to contacts and the first time I went to use them the right one split in two.

So about two weeks later I got around to getting a replacement, but was off school so rarely used them, and while I was visiting my brother for the weekend, my aunt came over to my house and I guess got a little drunk so had to spend the night and needed a place to put her contacts, so my mom(also drunk) dumped my case out in the sink for her to use, losing both my contacts...




Oh and..

you have a girlfriend??????
And here I thought I knew you all so well:(
 
Venetia!":d6fcr5uq said:
they're in love <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

What?!?!? I thought he was a solo man! :eek: or is Wumpi his girl?

Either ways Des just get a new pair. Like whoever said cheaper glasses usually are a hell of a lot better than the expensive ass ones.
 
yeah i'll be getting a new pair tomorrow no big deal. the real problem was that i had a hard time writing my thesis prospectus this morning since i couldn't see the computer screen but that was fixed with a rubber band :3

so yeah this day started off really shitty but it became pretty good and right now i'm in a totally good mood

also yes i have a girlfriend and i love her very very much (havent you read my sig???)
