I've been dork-ified!!!!

My glasses just broke and I was forced to repair them with dental floss and scotch tape. I’ve been dorkified! Help me!

** ed. note: ** the distinction must be made between “geek” and “dork”…I have always geek by virtue of comic readership, video game fanaticism, computer skills, and so on.

Get contacts. It just like the commercial said, changing from Clark Kent into Superman.

Oh, Myrr, that’s okay. Even though you’re now officially a dork, I’ll flirt with you anyway! ::pushes own glasses up::

Whoo-ha! Nice glasses ya got there…

BTW: had contacts, they cost me a fortune. They ripped in three months. 'Sides, I kinda like my glasses…

::speaking hypothetically, as I don’t wear them::

It’s always seemed to me that the nice thing about wearing glasses would be the ability to whip them off when making a really dramatic point.

Also being able to give someone a stern gaze over the tops of them!

Go with disposables. 34 bucks a box.

Also, if you’re nervous–particularly when speaking to a group–you can just take them off, and you can’t see how many people are there, or just how badly they’re reacting to your mindless chatter :slight_smile:

Mostly, though, they’re a good defence:
–“I’m a gonna pop you one. You and me, let’s go”

–“Alright let’s go”

–“Arrrghhh…PO*** Ehh, what’re you doing?”

–“I need to take off my glasses so tey don’t get busted”

–“Errr, okay, I guess”

Run like hell, or use opportunity to throw the first punch, as the case warrants…

Okay, so I’ve never tried this, but it * could * work.

I wear glasses…

Do men make passes at lasses with glasses?

Yes, but not if they insist on speaking in rhyme :slight_smile:

But I can’t help it! I do it all the time!

But, but…

Men won’t have sex with chicks that wear specs.

:slight_smile:

Good god, that’s bad. You people are mad. Welfy, glasses or no, you’re one hot bit. “Imminently doable” to clarify it. I’ll be in PA in a few weeks, feel like ‘spending some time’ with a geek?

A geek? Oh yes, I wear contacts, I confess. I used to wear glasses, but hate them, I’m sure. Now there’s no sign of my myopia, sir, unless you see me without, then I look dazed and peer all about.

Personally, I like chicks and lasses with or sans glasses. They can look good, either way. Later!

Yes, it always helps make my case when I dramatically take my glasses off and squint myopically at whomever… :smiley:

Myrr, I’m afraid I just don’t understand the OP. You say dork-ified like you think its a bad thing.

Why do you think you need help?

Dental floss!!! Oh, you’re wonderful!! Ayuh, dental floss and duct tape: the secret of a well put-together life!!

You know Myrr, you can use a Band-Aid instead of regular Scotch Tape on your glasses.
