Journal after5's Journal: Random side note 4

Sunglasses.

We all need them, for our eyes can be sunburned too. And we all know how sexy we look with huge raccoon tan lines.

(Which I have, well, i have the two lines on the side of my face, REALLY noticable)

Anyway, the reason I write about sunglasses is that the European style is something completely foreign to me.

Now, for me, "fashion" takes a back seat to function. Sunglasses are there to give your eyes a break from the bright evil that is...THE SUN. Yes, that evil yellow ball of hydrogen gas burning millions of miles away (about 93.7 million if my guesstimate is correct--8.4 minutes for light to reach the earth * 186,000 miles/sec)

Yes, I know weird things, leave me alone.

Yes, I know I'm a nerd, that won't change. Some people find it charming.

Yes, those people probably should have their heads examined, but that's up to them, okay?

Anyway, the sunglasses, first, are HUGE. We're not talking aviator style here, these things cover from eyebrow to cheekbones. Wide strips of flimsy plastic that, get this, are not tinted! Oh they have "accents" on the top toward the frame (if there is one) that come in "rose" or "pearl" or "azure" or some other weird name like that. But essentially the glasses are just clear pieces of plastic meant to complement an outfit. They serve no useful purpose!

I just don't get it.

  • I have funky tan lines too. You know you are a dork for knowing that whole sun crap. But I love you just the same. Come home soon!
  • Clear sunglasses?! What's the point? Those sunglasses don't sound very practical at all.

    And...

    I'd like to add that I'm rather fond of nerds with raccoon tans.
  • They all have square-toed shoes too.. not rounded.. I don't understand a lot of the stuff these people do..

    and to confirm, Jason's sunglasses tan is VERY obvious.. he wears his shades indoors most of the time.. it takes a certain something to wear shades as much as he does. :o)

Put your best foot forward. Or just call in and say you're sick.
