When I bought my glasses last year I chose them solely on the basis that the assistant optometrist told me they made me look like a character from Mad Men.
Anyway, because I am only a part-time
eyeglass wearer people feel the need to comment on it when they see me with
them on. Some of the pearlers I’ve heard in the year or so since I began
wearing them are:
“You look like a sexy librarian with your
glasses.”
You mean I don’t look like a sexy librarian
all the time?
“You look like a disapproving librarian in
your glasses”
That one was less-nice.
“I never thought of you as the smart,
glasses type.”
Screw you too, Jimmy.
“You look pretty when you wear your
glasses”
Freakin’ compli-sult if ever I heard one.
“Your glasses match your eyes”
Note: my glasses are black and white. They
match Everyone’s eyes.
“Your glasses match your hair”
Not sure how that works.
“They make you look like you’re squinting
and it’s kind of nice.”
?
To be continued the next time someone says
something stupid about my glasses.
I only wish my glasses gave me the right to hug leopards.
