Signs your getting old?
i've had shitty £1 reading glasses for a while now, for..reading.
I've just realised that I now need glasses to see the computer screen properly.
Also, I apparently called it a 'computer screen' so . oh jeez. I just aged a decade. Perhaps two.
- to the opticians i go.Nairn
- Last week, doc told me I’m ready for bifocals. I did not need him to tell me this. I knew.nb
- I started wearing progressive glasses about 5 years ago. I'm fine with it. My eyes will get worse but they can always just change my prescription.CyBrainX
- Dear brothers in Christ, I feel you.Nairn
- Just get a 30” 4K lcd and set the res to 800x600prophetone
- ^OBBTKN
- I got bifocals a couple of years ago.
This year I got some bifocal contacts. No idea how they work, but they do! F*ckin witchcraft!microkorg - I buy different flavors of shampoo and conditioner because I can no longer read “Shampoo” or “Conditioner” in the shower without glasses.shellie
- I also wear seamless bifocals which ive noticed fucks w/ my line when im on the putting green lining up shot. Cant tilt my head to the side or the ground warpshellie
- Microkorg, does it matter which orientation you put the contacts? they work no matter how u put them in? I've never had bifocals at all...cherub
- @prophetone ahahahsted
- @microkorg the top part of the lens helps with the distant, the bottom part with the near view.sted
- Sted, yup, thats how bifocal glasses work. But with the lenses you put them in any way up. (answers your question too cherub)microkorg
- Ah, it's not a top/bottom thing...

You really DO NEED glasses shampoo or conditioner shouldn't come in FLAVORS.palimpsest - https://i.haasie.com…palimpsest
- Guess who left his specs at home today, lol.Nairn
- I inquired about contacts and before bigocal which is more expensive they offered two prescriptions one for each eye.shellie
- Apparently most peoples brains splits the difference. But some cant do it then the more expensive lenses are the way. Wild.shellie
- I just got progressives (bifocals?) last week. Ugh.monospaced
- cheers, microkorg!cherub
- I tried the two different contacts as a cheaper solution but I couldn't gel with it. Gave me real anxiety. And I'm not convinced thatmicrokorg
- its a good thing long term having each eye doing different things.microkorg
- I wear glasses 80% of the time. Contacts for sport mainly.microkorg
- I had to give up on contacts about 5 years ago. The reading vision deteriorated too much and I hate reading glasses.CyBrainX
- So, I got transition lenses for my already bad distant vision and for reading. I miss contacts but have gotten used to glasses.CyBrainX

RIP of the day
Does anyone else think "come on Trump" when they see RIP of the day at the top of the list?
- Yup!Continuity
- if he dies, he'll be even more of a martyr. There'll be months of mourning from the deep state and America will eventually fall into a deep depression!Ianbolton
- Yes! And also tbh I wouldn’t mind Biden resting in peace either. Shake things up.nb
- Weird thought tbhstewart
- I feel bad for Biden. He looks like he’s trapped in a life he doesn’t really want. Obviously I’d prefer him to retirenb
- rest in jail for trumpo loco ...neverscared
- Biden is a stopgap centrist. End of. He should have gone hard on expanding SCOTUS day one. Now his re-election plan is federal weed regulations.garbage
- Non-Americans here might not realize there's a very serious chance we're about to have a D-List reality show joke get re-elected and pardon himself.garbage
- Of all of his crimes. And further criminalize women's rights all over the country, and embolden the evangelical right.garbage
- @garbage, i'm a canadian, and we FULLY grasp how close trump is to coming back to power...and it freaks us out...exador1
- @garbage I don't think there's a person outside the US who's paying even a bit of attention that isn't fearfully aware of how possible this will be.Continuity
- Trump will get destroyed because people will vote against him The news would have you believe otherwise because it helps their bottom linenb
- Source: intuition and a rudimentary understanding of the media businessnb
- To make it clear, I wasn't talking down. That was a preamble beg for a foreign couch.
We're so fucked.garbage - If he dies of being an old fat miserable fuck, then he's not really a martyr, is he? It's not like he's being crucified by dems.monospaced
- Foreigner here - I'm under the impression he doesn't have a chance, having lost a significant amount of the female vote because of his shenanigans.Nairn
- every single fucking day.oey_oey
- @Nairn He has a very real chance. As in he's either only a point under in regional polls, and a general collation poll from today.. he's winning.garbage
- https://projects.fiv…garbage
- Answering a poll is not the same as voting. There are no perceived consequences. People say different things than they do.nb
- We didn't take him seriously enough before, and he's going to lie and cheat his way into office again.garbage
- Do you think Biden would forgive billions of student loans and reclassifying weed on the same day if there weren't serious concerns of losing office?garbage
- I’m not going to underestimate the zeitgeist of Trump and the hold it has over the nations most deplorable cunts. 50 fucking percent including women.monospaced
- My bet of One English Pound says Trump will winGardener
- *note to self, must check the oddsGardener
- @gardy I will sadly take that bet. Trump wins, I'll mail one in. He doesn't, and I'll expect an autographed quid.garbage

Signs your getting old?
Sunday morning, i'm full of fresh, hopeful spring vibes. I eat a couple of 'those' gummies and head to the enormous Sainsbury's up Oldbury to do a big shop. I park, i get a trolley, i register a scanner with my Nectar. Airpods in, sweet tunes on and away I go.
The aisles of paralysing choice are colourful today and my soundtrack puts a groove into my steps. There's a certain glorious youthful euphoria baked into what happened next. Whilst choosing still-warm, aromatic fresh breads I catch the eye of an elegant sun-dressed gentlewoman doing the same. We smile and share the frisson. Intimate. We catch each other’s gaze at the cheeses and again across cabbages and leeks.
Distracting daydreams of our impossibly perfect life on the shores of an Italian lake meant the cat didn’t eat and we’ve still got no tin foil. Our accidental odyssey ends as she heads towards the fast fashion. I don’t. The gamble of the self scan till falls in my favour, no checks, sweet. I emerge, free into the sunlight pushing my loaded chariot as I wistfully reminisce about the possibilities of our unspoken connection across the vegetable aisle.
I pull up at the back of my car and press the key to open the boot. Simultaneously, the door doesn't open and I wither at the sight of a deep, violent scratch down the side of my car. All four panels look like I fucked Wolverine’s mum and sister and he found out. I look about for some sign of the soon-to-be dead vehicle assailant with no luck. I exclaim loudly “Which motherfucker did this?” as I’m attempting to rub out the scratch and crush the key fob in an attempt to get the back door open.
The scratch is like Cheddar Gorge and the fob isn’t fucking working. I’m confused as to how this trench of a scuff has managed to affect the electronics. And then I hear, from behind me, quite abruptly and aggressively, “Can I help you”. I turn and see what could only be described as blustering gammon walking towards me. At pace.
Again, “CAN. I. HELP.” I’m very confused and reply whilst pointing, “I don’t think so, unless you did this”. And the aging, Greggs hooligan spits “Yes I fucking did. PROBLEM?”. His piggy eyes stare. I don’t know what’s going on. I look around for a clue or weapon whilst spluttering “My keys don’t work”.
He’s two foot in front of me and he laughs in my face. I can see the hairs up his nose as his laughter distorts his fat, red face. I manage half a “...why?” as I’m frantically pressing the key-fob button. His hand reaches out. I think ‘this guy’s got some fucking stones for a cunt with undeniably high blood pressure’ and he grabs my shoulder. My hands form fists, I tense.
He’s wheezing and guffawing like a braying mule. Unable to speak, the gammon points and turns me towards his scratched car’s twin, two parking spaces away with its boot open and lights flashing. A meek “Oh” escapes me . He pats me on the back as I trundle the twenty feet to my unblemished ride.
- Haha that’s nuts. Teach you to get high and go out in the world ! ;)mort_
- lmao ... I’ve actually opened someone else’s unlocked car and got halfway in thinking it was mine. Oooooops.Ramanisky2
