Glasses SUCK!
I keep several spare sets, but I'm not at home.....
So take 'em off and you can't see where you put 'em.

Damn! Do you know where my glasses are?

1. I guess you've got a pretty high prescription.
Sorry I can't help you - have you thought about contacts?

I could be an irritating git and say "they'll be in the last place you look".

3. Contacts??????
Yeah we all know I'm a masochist, but sticking my finger in my eye every morning? No thanks!
And you are an irritating git but that's what I love about you. Last place I'd look? Tried that....of course, if they were there, I wouldn't have seen them.... laugh all you want little boy, you'll be old soon, then we'll see who's laughing

4. I wasn't actually laughing.
you may find it hard to believe, but I'm actually sympathetic to your various plights.

And as I wear contacts half of the time I know how easy they are, nothing masochistic about it (though I suppose you could make it so if you wanted to).

6. Yes
That is an irritating git sort of comment :D

I actually hate that cliche so much that often, when I find what I was looking for, I'll keep looking, just to thwart the cliche (and to see whether anything else interesting will reveal itself).

But as to the OP: yes, glasses do suck, and I'm extremely bummed that I've grown to need them to read now. I hate losing them and having to locate them, and I really hate the little bruises/welts they raise on my nose! But I'm so paranoid about my eyes that contact lenses aren't an option.

2. And they also break .
And they also break apart (the frames) at the worse times. I had a pair of $60 dollar frames . ( I went through 2 pairs now that I remember) and the screw on the part that goes over the ear always came out whenever I was in class. Argh ! I ditched the glasses as soon as I got to college and I have been frame free ever since.

7. On top of your head?
In the bathroom? On your nightstand? Wedged in a couch cushion?

9. agreed
Try under the bed and behind the couch. Those are two places I often eventually find mine.

10. Behind the couch was the correct answer
How they got there I have no idea.

I did once spend a week looking for them..... and found them under my pillow.

13. My dear Khash.....
I'm lucky, I guess.....

I have to wear mine all the time!

From the time I dress, till the time I go to bed.....

They sit on my face....and light my way......

They can't get lost that way!
