I demand a refund, I do not feel any smarter with my new glasses
Although I can see things clearly at a distance... like street signs! So that's kinda nice. :rofl:


They look kind of purple in the pic, but they're really bronze. Oh, excuse make bronze glow. :P
And you can seriously tell my left eye has a way bigger prescription. :o

"2, 4, 6... 10!" :eyes:

12. It's not the glasses' fault, you're just doing it wrong.
For "smarter", you have to pose looking AWAY from the hand
you're touching the cheek with.

What you've got there is "introspective".

48. Nono, you're supposed to LOOK smarter, not feel smarter.
And you do.
I mean, I don't know if you do, I don't know what you looked like without them.
But you look pretty smart now. :hi:

50. I just think you ARE smarter to wear glasses
my other sisters both got contacts, and my nieces too, but they would totally look cute in glasses. Then again, I don't think mine to anything for me. And I specifically asked for glasses that would make me look like Johnny Depp. One time I let the saleslady pick out frames and she, although being a friend of mine (or so I thought), picked out frames that made me look like John Lennon.
