    If we could do a comedy act, we'd be a spectacle.

    CC also causes hairy palms. Watch out for that too.

    Are you serious? I pay only 250 USD for my glasses. They're rimless ones too. Or 250/1.3 Euros.

    Wear contacts. Contacts give others the false impression that you are normal.

    it seems people are prejudice toward people with glasses. people think that if you wear glasses, then your smart... no, it means they have any eye problem...

    You should be grateful for their misconceptions of you. It's true for the rest of us, however.

    I got a B in calculus using that strategy. I never did homework unless I had friends who needed help... 100% test average. Worked pretty well.

    That's the attitude ensure failure now rather than waiting on those pesky exams. Medocrity is very underrated in the modern world.

    Then you must be doing one hell of an easy course. No marks for assignments I take it. Wish I had this opportunity when I went to Uni, a fair wack of our grade was made up of assignments with exams pretty much a moot issue. You either did the hard yards and passed or the exams weren't going to be enough to get a passing grade.

    Re: CC caused me to need glasses

    I bought glasses for USD6, its sole purpose is to protect my eye from small speckles of dust when traveling, then sometimes when my eyes become really really sensitive to light, I wear it.

    that doesn't mean I am smart or have an eye problem.

    Re: CC caused me to need glasses

    Oh, and I noticed that staring at a very bright monitor causes really bad headaches as the eyes gets strained and tired.
    What i usually do is to have the brightness at the lowest possible setting available that is more relaxing to the eye.

    no need for trips yet to an optometrist.

    Like those people that go into hiding since about last new years, and only sign on when they're too busy anyway or are sick and have nothing better to do.

    I hate those people too.
