I'm sad to say I feel like I'm living a double life. Vast majority of my RL friends wouldn't be into it at all. I've always been somewhat of the nerd of the group. I used to be embarrassed by that, I couldn't give a **** anymore! Life's too short. I'm still reluctant to share the extent of it though. I've changed my boards name a few times because RL friends found out my account name somehow. I prefer anonymity. My ex looked at me with two heads when I was describing the WW star wars game we had here.

Anonymity is gone now! Two headed ex. That narrows it right down.

Any time I cut one off, two more grew back in its place. Highly inconvenient.

Does anyone know why you can't get white/cream/ivory lenses in sunglasses, they don't seem to exist and Google hasn't helped (stupid google) would you not be able to see through them or what

I would think there would be a light absorption issue.

Does anyone know why you would want white/cream/ivory lenses in sunglasses?

Funnily enough I just picked up my new prescription glasses and sunglasses yesterday. I am not best pleased about having to wear them again. Like a proper old person I refuse to accept that I even need them.
But the sunglasses are pretty funky. They are standard black sunglasses though, none of this fancy white lenses like you young folk.

Wearing glasses doesn't make you old.
Having to take them off to rub your eyes makes you old.
The eye test lady told me so, after I took my glasses off to rub my eyes.

Mollyb60

**** I've done that about 6 times already this morning. The new glasses are making me nauseous.

Necro

Is it weird I haven't changed my glasses in about 6 years?

I've been for eye tests, etc but my eyesight hasn't got any better/worse since then.

My opticians hate seeing me coming because we have to do the dance over new frames.

Optician: 'Sure just have a look, we have these lovely ones here, and a second frame free.'

Necro: 'No thanks, these ones are grand, just some cleaning fluid please '

Optician: 'But... not even one pair? You get a second FREE'

Necro: 'Yeah, but these ones are fine, and I have to pay for the first.' (Pays and leaves)

Optician every two years without fail:

That's what happens when you get old. Living just makes you sick. All those kids listening to ****ty music on their tinny speakers, zipping around on heelys with their computer animated ninja turtles and working eyes. And don't get me started on immigints!

I have like 14 pairs of glasses, and I wear most of ‘em. What kind of person does that make me?

I'm a sunglass-a-holic I've bought 4 pairs so far this year! :eek:

Baggly

It's just my personal belief but anyone who wears sunglasses is admitting defeat to the sun.

You have to look the sun straight in the eye or he will never respect you.

I like different coloured lenses, although the white lenses was just a thought that kinda got away from me

that made me lol!

I like lenses that make the world sepia toned, I literally like to see the world through rose coloured lenses!

Necro

Necro is very happy today.

Thank you mods for letting me set up a D&D account in similar vein to WerewolfGM....

Will make the upcoming newbie game run a lot smoother.

Mollyb60

Also it's a handy way of hiding who's to blame when the DM kills us all off.

For once I can say it won't be me.

Weather is shocking. Booooourns.

Going to a wedding today. Just went to the wardrobe to take out my dress and I can’t find it! 3 wardrobes in the House and it’s in none of them. Had shoes and fascinator and nails based round that dress. **** it anyway.

No, I’m not the bride

Were else would you put a dress?? Are you sure you bought it? Was it being drycleaned? Has your partner thrown it out in a fit of rage?

Baggly

If it's blue and black, it could be that illusion dress that looked gold and white.

I’ve worn it twice before. The shoes that I bought with it are here just no idea where the dress is. Dammit. Going to get my nails redone

This is wedding no2 of 3 in a five week period. Bought one new outfit and carefully planned that I wouldn’t be wearing the same dress to a wedding that a good lot of the crowd would have seen before. Now I’m going with dress no3 with wedding no2.

Mollyb60

Ah it couldn't have just disappeared though. It must be somewhere in the house!

Kolido

Are you sure you're not wearing it now?

can happen, no joke.....:pac:

Well it my own wedding and it was pretty sedate actually. Few drinks with the siblings and an aunt or 2 at 5am in the morning in the residents bar. My dress had ripped about halfway through the day so I was in dress #2 by that stage. I never lost the dress though!

Dry Cleaners and never picked it up?

Baggly

Any luck Strawbs?

Mollyb60

God yeah I'm still wondering about the missing dress.

beakerjoe

Strawbs........ have you checked any suitcases? Maybe a hot press? is it in a bundle of clothes in a backpack or gym bag?

Are you wearing it?

quickbeam

Is there a prize/reward for the one of us who suggests the correct place to find it?
