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.
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
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.
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!
