a very brief conversation with my stylish new rimless glasses

Me: “You make me look downright sexy, new rimless glasses.”

new rimless glasses: “Thanks.  But I’m nothing without you, fella.”

    We need a picture. I can’t simply take the word of a pair of glasses.

  2. Attila Girl says:

    Yes. You forgot to post that picture you promised. Please fix. Thanks.

  3. TallDave says:

    I’m guessing Silhouettes.  My exgf practically orgasms when she sees those.

  4. roscoe k says:

    Jeff,

    You’ve had many (though brief)conversations with a lot of different inanimate objects. Ever talk with Al Gore?

  5. Dr Pearl says:

    Trying to make a spectacle of yourself?

  6. Jeff Goldstein says:

    I honestly don’t remember, roscoe. But that might just be because of the psychotic break I suffered after witnessing that tongue kiss several years back.

  7. Beck says:

    Two words: contact lenses.

  8. Beck says:

    That’s right.  I went there.

  9. Mark says:

    Ah, but it was a silent wet tongue kiss, so no explicit lyric label required.

  10. none says:

    Interesting. My rimless glasses called me a putz and are frequently found near a half empty bottle of tequila begging for the sweet release of death.

    Must be a different brand than you bought.

  11. Matt Moore says:

    I ain’t buying it. Since when are inanimate objects nice to you?

  12. Lew Clark says:

    Even better word: Lasik.

    And since Jeff went neither the Lasik nor contact route, can we safely assume he is hiding something behind those rimless glasses?

  13. c says:

    No, he’s smart, Lew.  My truly gorgeous guy neighbor with eyeglasses did Lasik and it’s not been the same since.  Have to avert my eyes so he can’t see the disappointment.  Great glasses = mysterious appeal.

  14. SeanH says:

    I got rimless glasses last year so I can sort of see where Jeff’s coming from.  I just hope I didn’t carry on like this.

  15. Matt says:

    The trick is to keep perfect vision throughout your life. That way you can get the sexy frames and not pay for those expensive lenses.

  16. Attila Girl says:

    My take on this important issue is here. And I think I got it right.

  17. JD says:

    More disinformation from the GAY PORN COCK OF BLINDNESS!!!

    BECAUSE OF THE ASTIGMATISM!!!

  18. Attila Girl says:

    The patriarchy keeps messing up my links. But I REFUSE TO BE SILENCED!

  19. Sticky B says:

    Contact Lenses???????

    Lasik?????

    Everybody knows those two can’t carry on a decent conversation. Lasik can’t even speak passible English. Gaaawwwwwwwsssshhhhh.

  20. Attila Girl says:

    Fortunately, because the traditional view of women aims to put them on a pedestal–while still keeping them down–Jeff sometimes takes mercy on me and fixes my links, out of a chivalry that I simultaneously demand and denounce.

    Behind this post is a harsh truth: Jeff is trying to deal with a childhood trauma.

    When he was a kid, all the other neighborhood kids called him “four-eyes”.  Then he had to get glasses, so they all called him “eight-eyes”.

    He’s never really gotten over it.

  23. roscoe k says:

    A few day ago I purchased a pair of spiffy looking, black and orange glassless rims. I wore them to the club last night. I sat down at the bar and began rubbing one eye with my finger stuck through the opening where the lens normally would be.  Out of the corner of my other eye I noticed that every woman at the bar was looking directly at me!

    Believe me- Glassless rims = chick magnets!

    glassless rims – my favorite Barry Goldwater photo

  25. roscoe k says:

    Goldwater…

    Check out these cool specs- <a href=”http://www.ik2jhd.it/FOTO OM/goldwater1964poster.jpg” target=”_blank”>rimless AND glassless</a>.

    How is it possible that he lost?!

  26. vladimir says:

    Roscoe, that was the funniest one in a long time. LOL

    Norm,

    I was just reading the Wikipedia entry on Barry Goldwater.

    My Father has a story about his car getting it’s window smashed because it had a Goldwater bumper sticker.

    Can’t make the link work- damn glasses.

    Jay:

    The math club geeks called him 2<sup>3</sup> eyes.

    2<sup>3</sup>

  30. Jay says:

    sqlserver,

    The usual notation in the absence of a working superscript tag is 2**3

    By the way, I used to be a database administrator on a Microsoft SQL Server database.  Any relation?

  31. Jeff,

    Totally off topic, but did you enjoy “Firefly?” A friend gave me the DVD set and I really enjoyed the shows. I haven’t seen the movie yet though.

    The thing that bugs me is I think my boys would really enjoy them, but they have some “adult” stuff stuck in there (like witht the “companion”) so I can’t let them.

  32. Jeff Goldstein says:

    I really am enjoying it. Going to watch an episode now, in fact.

    I particularly like the Captain—though I feel certain in saying I look better than he does when I’m wearing my new rimless glasses.

  33. I particulary like the Captain as well, but for probably different reasons than you…wink

  34. Jay says:

    So Jeff, have you ever thought about getting new glasses?  Maybe, I don’t know, rimless?

    It could change your life.

  35. Aakash says:

    A thought for Jeff: Please make sure you know where your glasses are, and that if you can’t find them – try to locate them immediately.

    I say this because I myself have been without glasses for some time now… My first pair got misplaced, so we went back to Wal-Mart (don’t tell my liberal professor!) and got a second pair. In a short time after that happened, that second pair disappeared, and I didn’t give it much thought (since I can drive and do everything I need to do without glasses)… However, they are still missing. I had contacts, so I put them on.

    But now, here’s the thing:

    I currently have not done anything with contact lenses since I was in California… So, I am assuming that the ones I put on are still in my eyes. But the scary thing is, it is hard to tell… Plus, with my continued computer usage, I think I may need a stronger prescription. But how can I go in to get tested, if I don’t know whether I’m wearing contacts or not?

    (Does anyone know where I can get some suction cups?…)

    Moral of the story: When you get new glasses, keep track of where they are. Or otherwise, get a second pair.

    (or third) wink

  36. Roman in a time of pussies says:

    I’m so not getting this “rimless glasses” thing.  How do you drink out of them? Straws? And what about the timetable?

  37. Beagle in a time of Hookworms says:

    So you look like Bono now?

  38. Laura says:

    I was going to write something about those glasses, but now all I can think about is Nathan Fillion aka Captain…

  39. Sean M. says:

    [insert dirty “rimless” double entendre here]

  40. SarahW says:

    Beagle: pretty much, yeah.

    We use Great Plains (MS business solution after MS acquisition) that runs SQL server.

    I use Access 2003 (and simple VBA) to create db’s against SQL.

    I know everyone hates MS but for a business of our size these tools are incredible.
