suicide squad 3 scene where someone asks why harley is in jail this time and it’s just a cut to bruce the hyena at a tea party with rpatz bruce wayne duck taped to a chair opposite of him. harley; I figured kidnapping a big wig like bruce wayne would a caught bats attention but I got dropkicked by a butler instead
rick flag (back from the dead bc I say so): didn’t your ex hold up a bank for like twelve hours once and threaten to kill bruce wayne but the bat never showed?
bloodsport: actually, I don’t think batman’s ever saved wayne and the man’s been in at least six hostage situations. tad strange honestly
harley: omg I can’t believe we never noticed before
can we talk about how literally 64% of people wear glasses, and yet we NEVER see them in movies/tv unless it’s on some nerdy or uncool character? why do we adhere to such a weird beauty standard that subconsciously makes us feel bad for,, not being able to see???
I used to work for LensCrafters and I can tell you for a fact that they make a big deal out of wanting as many customers as possible to want to get contacts. Every meeting there was a reminder that we were to push contacts. Hell, the other employees /managers repeatedly tried to push contacts on me even after I informed them that there was no way that I would ever shove a piece of plastic into my eye.
To them, the difference between selling glasses and getting a customer to sign up for contacts is like the difference between selling a video game and getting a player to get a monthly subscription. And failing that their next big sell is for frames that cost twice to three times as much, but have little to no frame (and thus almost look like you aren’t wearing glasses at all) and are fragile as all hell (and thus are likely to break and have to be replaced).
They can’t rely solely on our prescription getting heavier or otherwise changing to the point that we have to buy a new pair every year. They want to push you to buy their product every time that you visit the optometrist and then some more in between.
As counter-intuitive as it might seem, it is in Big Optic’s best interest to convince us that we look terrible if we wear glasses.
The next time you need an eye exam, ask for a copy of your prescription. Take a picture too.
You can buy prescription glasses and even prescription sunglasses online for a fraction of the cost as they will force you to pay in stores.
The only thing you need is your prescription, and your pupil distance, which you can just measure at home
Firmoo.com
Eyebuydirect.com
I forget the other ones but these are the two I’ve used. Firmoo always has a lot of coupons and buy one get one free deals.
If you buy them online, you can get prescription sunglasses for $30. If there’s a buy one get one sale, you can get two pairs of prescription sunglasses for $30. And they don’t have to be the same prescription. You but yourself prescription sunglasses for $30, and you can get somebody else a pair of prescription sunglasses for free. Or just a backup set if something happens to the first one!
Seriously!
You do not need to be spending $60 on glasses!! Buy them online!!!
It also means that if you break them catastrophically, you can just reorder them online instead of having to go to the eyeglasses place, which would suck even more for you if your eyes are so bad that you can’t drive.
I use zennioptical.com for my glasses, which is how I got the heart shaped ones
This is all true but it’s actually because it’s difficult to film people wearing glasses - they reflect the set lights and camera and stuff. So it’s easier not to bother. Most times I’ve been filmed, doing any sort of head shot/speak to camera stuff, the camera operator has had me take mine off.
the discord server with a friend group i run decided theyd like to add an NSFW channel which so far has been terrible. for them. theyve found out new things about the world and about themselves ever since we added it and im entirely to blame
none of it is my fault since they asked for the channel and opened the flood gates when one of them outed me as being into vore. like oh you think youre funny for that. im gonna be hilarious then
India totally fucks with statistics imo. Remember the whole T-Series vs. PewDiePie situation and fucking nobody outside of India had even heard of T-Series, let alone subscribed to them.
Not to discount Indian people but I think it’s worthwhile to essentially remove them from stats, similar to bots. Or at the very least set them aside, identify them, label them as distinct from the rest, whatever. They completely skew what would otherwise be normally distributed results.
They skew results because there are a lot of them. If you’re attempting to measure something on a worldwide scale, excluding a country that makes up something like 17% of the world population is the absolute last thing you want to do.
“Not to discount Indian people but…” [compares us to bots] 🫠
My guy, I’m SO sorry you’re having an “I am feel uncomfortable when we are not about me” moment here, but I need you to understand that you cannot just Spiders Georg away the existence of 1.8 billion brown people
“‘Average person is not a white western male’ factoid actually just statistical error. Average person is actually very opinionated white libertarian gamer guy in United States of America. South Asians, who live on the Indian subcontinent and make up 23% of the world’s population, are a statistical outlier adn should not have been counted.”
“Not to discount Indian people but we should discount Indian people.”
“you see, if we ignore the people that dont like the things we like then the stuff we like is the most popular stuff in the world!” ~how that person trying to discount literally a whole goddamn eighth of the world sounds
