That kind of thing is insane but nowhere near peak insane waste of money.

I used to do database reporting for a tribal casino. The biggest customer had dropped over $10M in there. There were more than ten others in the multi million dollar losers club.

The phrase "pervert glasses" is delightful, but does anyone at all really buy into the idea that guys are following around the women of Walmart to video them? It's not impossible, I guess, but this can't be common, nor would you need expensive glasses for that when you have a cellphone. The phrase "We, as a society" is never going to end well, either. Don't try to coopt me into your vision of what everybody needs to do.

We have to reinforce the idea that all men are always creeps at all times, and all women are innocent victims of the creeps at all times, always, forever and ever, or the terrorists have already won. I dunno, man. The messaging from almost every direction the last decade or so seems customed designed to make sure we all view each other in the worst possible light. This post is very much a part of that trend.

I think it's far more likely people buying these glasses are doing it to film their mundane lives and post them up as if they were fascinating. One of my older friends has taken to auto-posting his commute via some dashboard cam on his car. The sad part is? He has subscribers that watch every video. How have we hit a point where someone is so bored that they'll watch someone else's commute every single day? Like, that's their excitement? Their entertainment? WTF?
