So my dad's taste in music is very 90's-10's heavy metal and rock. He hates pop music, he hates emo music (FOB, PatD, MCR, etc), and a few other genres. His new girlfriend likes mainstream pop stuff. She got him to listen to Perfect by Ed Sheeran and he actually likes the song. How in the dang world of Slipknot and FFDP does my dad actually like a song by Ed Sheeran. I never saw that coming.
(Personally, I like the song, it's one of the few mainstream pop songs I like.)

Different situations I feel most people with glasses can relate to-
When you are drinking something hot, wearing a mask, enter somewhere hot after being in a cold room, need to have goggles for shop or science class, or are just around steam and your glasses are immediately fogged up.
When you don't have glasses for a few moments and everybody without glasses wants to play the "how many fingers am I holding up?" game. I can still count dude, and I can see that you have 3 fingers up.
When people want to try on your glasses and then go "ArE yOu BLIND!?"
When you lose your glasses and since you can't see well without them you can't find them.
When it's sunny outside but you haven't been able to find a pair of sunglasses that will go over your glasses and not look stupid. (Unless you have clip-on ones. For someone who's practically a vampire, those can be very handy.)
Laying down sideways and the glasses move.
(More for girls) The inability to comfortably wear a headband.
(For those with longer hair) When you try to take off your glasses and a hair gets caught and you end up accidentally pulling one of your hairs out.
Can't wear a Halloween mask without being blind.
Having to almost constantly clean glasses in order for there to be zero fingerprints or smudges.
Trying to take a picture yourself or on picture day and having to turn your head in a gazillion different angles just to avoid the light glare.
They either don't fit completely right, or they did and then something happened to bend them even a little and now they look awkward.

Yusss I wear fake glasses sometimes and I get your point. VERY MUCH
ammyk I can relate to so many of these. Wow. Also, the first time I wore glasses, I realized that trees actually are as detailed as they are in paintings. I had always thought that painters just added those for effect. It was kind of amazing.
lunamoonlight @ammyk Ikr, trees and grass are the first things I notice every new prescription.
KnightStar @ammyk I was only 5 when I started wearing glasses, but I remember how I was like, "wow dis world so bootiful w/ glasses" lol
ammyk I really should get into a better habit of cleaning my glasses, though.
EloquentRacer92 me too
JD2005 I'm glad I don't need glasses lol.

Went to Chick-Fil-A today. I haven't had it in a while and forgot how dang good the chicken nuggets are. Chick-Fil-A nuggets are better than any other restaurant I've ever been to. Perfection.

EloquentRacer92 WHERE
EloquentRacer92 I just saw a post from 2014 that they are bringing them back to washington
ammyk @EloquentRacer92 WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT WHAT ARE THEY DOING UP THERE. Don’t tell me you can’t find sweet tea, either.
EloquentRacer92 there smashing all the chick fil a's up there
lunamoonlight @ammyk Most places I think I have sweet tea on the menu. Some don't, but a lot do. I know Chick-Fil-A does because sweet tea is generally a southern thing. I don't know anyone who likes unsweetened tea, that's disgusting.
Twentyonepilotsan Geez I'm really missing out
JD2005 👍🏻👍🏻
Yusss @ammyk I think Chick-Fil-A has the BEST sweet tea around.
EloquentRacer92 And I don’t think I can find sweet tea maybe
EloquentRacer92 @Twentyonepilotsan I never go to Chick Fil A so its not just you
Let's try a game-
Your notification number is the year, what's happening in that year? If your year is under 1,000 then you may choose AD or BC, but if it's more than 1,000, it must be AD.
For me, it is 55039 AD. Humanity and all other life forms from 2021 are dead because the world went into several stages of global warming and ice ages. The sun died quicker than humans thought it would and the earth- and all other planets in the same solar system- are now a chunk of ice. Everything is dead.

Queeny it's 15068 AD. The last colony on Earth is losing it's resources. Scientists, historians, and all other valuable members have banded together with a new goal: Make sure humanity's history is remembered. Thus, they have begun working on a time capsule strong enough to last through it's journey through space.
Ash 1391: The world is going through the black plague.
lunamoonlight @Elo lol, it's just a game lol, it's not definite or anything, it's just a guess or a random story.
KnightStar 29213 ??? The world has turned into but a memory - the only thing that remains is the earth's core melting away in another 'sunset'; there is no more human life, as the Earth was burnt to a flame and became old, weak, nothing like it's beauty it was before. Corruption, sin had polluted it, masking itself as something else, blinding and beautiful, but a deadly wage.
hilolo 8 bc
ammyk The year is 371 AD. Augustine of Hippo is 17. So yeah.

So my school counselor made a Google Classroom a while ago and she occasionally posts materials for different resources for different issues a kid might need help with, stuff like bullying, COVID stress, the stress in general, anxiety, stuff like that. A few months ago when our behavior teacher passed away (did I ever mention that on here? I never really knew the guy so it didn't affect me as much as others), she also sent out grief counseling stuff. Now she's sent out "Survivors of Homicide and Other Violent Crimes Support" and I have questions.

Some run fast, some run slow
Some fall behind and don't know which way to go
The scenery changes from seeing the track straight ahead
They see darkness closing in, they get these thoughts in their head
They could keep running, but they become used to the essence of black
They can't see anyone, they feel so alone, because it's vision they lack
They sit and ponder
They don't dare and wander
Sitting alone in the accidental mess, crying for help with a silent voice
Going backward, asking, failing, blaming themselves for their choice
Never trying to move forward, they can't, what if it hurts? What then?
But they don't understand, staying still hurts more when
They say they try, while they sit and cry and get comfortable being still
It's a heavy darkness, but you go in and out with free will
Some run fast, some run slow
Some live their lives on speed and go where no one knows
The scenery changes from seeing the track in front and back
Wait- whose back there? Some Leslie, Joe, or Jack?
High alert, scared, hearing voices, what do they do?
So scared of others, they knock them down the moment they come through
Be it foe or friend, they choose more of one than the other
So paranoid someone's out to get them, they never love another
They run on high, running backward to make sure no one is behind
But in the very end, they've become so blind
People run past them, and they don't see, they've toppled themselves
Fallen from the anxiety, the one that overwhelms
They find themselves stopping, but their feet are still running
So blind, they can stare forever, but are never seeing
They crumble, they fall, they still think someone's there
But no one is, know that, that's your paranoia you fear
Some run fast, some run slow
Some stay in the middle, although
They see so many people, how do they compare?
They care so much about what they wear
The clothes, the shoes, the price tag attached
It's a different problem than sitting, or watching your back
These people feel it, all of the others staring
If they do something wrong, others will be glaring
Eyes in the back of their heads, take a misstep, go on, dare
But honestly, would they even care?
Dear invisible audience, please, don't look
The middle's could handle your gaze, you'll read them like a book
Never-ending jealousy, greed, and insecurity
The fact that no one cares is such an obscurity
They want to be noticed, but not looked at
They need attention from invisible people, but simultaneously, not that
Some run fast, some run slow
How do you run, do you even know?
Some run fast, some run slow.
JD2005 🙏🏻
I am going to the eye doctor to finally get tested for new glasses on Friday. I can't read medium size font on the TV about 10 feet away. It's always interesting when you first wear a new prescription because it's like "Wow, has the world always looked like this?"

lunamoonlight I've been wearing them as long as I can remember, but I've needed new perscriptions every couple of years because my eyes are becoming progressively worse lol.
EloquentRacer92 its bc one eye is far one eye is near but i can see perfectly w/o glasses
lunamoonlight @PurpleMochi I always find myself looking at grass and trees and going "I could count each leaf and blade of grass if I wanted to..."
lunamoonlight @Eloquent I doubt that you can see absolutely perfect without them, because otherwise you wouldn't have them. But I'm guessing you can still read and see objects fine without glasses. It's mostly been the same for me, but one of my eyes is near-sighted while the other is far-sighted. So I see things a little cross-eyed and it makes it hard to read too far away or too close.
Queeny same luna. Knight got glasses a couple months before me, and I remember making fun of her for it. Then boom, I was blind. Karma amirite.
hilolo i know!
hilolo @ash same
lunamoonlight @Queeny Yup.
lunamoonlight I also can't see definite lines on anything. I still see shapes and stuff, but if I look at the edge of something, I can't see a distinctive line.
KnightStar I've been wearing glasses since me was 5
KnightStar My dad is very into 40s and 50s music. Jazz and your average female vocalists then. My dad likes class in a lady, though many of his previous wives were opposite LOLLL. My mom isn't classy either, she's more Latina City girl.
JD2005 Personally, I love Perfect; it's one of my most favourite songs. Speaking of my parents, none of 'em are into mainstream stuff; my mom loves old songs from 70s-80s, but my dad likes mainly 90s-00s songs.
lunamoonlight My mom likes a bunch of genres, from rock to blues to (some) rap to whatever Voltaire is.
