Oh phuck…

Uplifting?

What do they do with a billionaire’s money and assets when they croak?

Well now I want a pack of beef jerky straws…

Is that even a thing yet?.. 🤔

Indeed, the whole paper straw thing is ridiculous. But let’s not forget that poor sea turtle that they pulled a plastic straw out of its nose. Yeah, that was a random one-off, not very likely to happen again anytime soon. If anything, they need to be more worried about fish, dolphins and turtles getting hung up in lost fishing nets…

Back to the stupid straw thing, someone on that other site that we don’t tend to speak of mentioned a perfect solution. Use a Twizzler candy, they’re hollow and edible once you’re done!

Wake up babe, the world is rapidly falling apart, but I got us some paper straws, so we should be okay…

Say what you want, I don’t give a flying fuck.

At least I’m not a stupid chatbot and actually have a real life.

Goodbye.

Again, did you miss my point? Apparently so, I grew up outdoors. I learned to drive a stick shift and learned how to shoot a gun before I even had glasses.

That doesn’t mean it was appropriate the ways they taught me, but still I was an outdoors kid, I wasn’t stuck in a fucking room…

But I was still literally born nearsighted.

Yep. My first diagnosis was -3.5 for the left, -3.75 for the right. Yes it degrades over time. Very slowly though.

These days, I find that my outdated lenses do better than my recent lenses, when I use my old left lens for my right eye.

Did everyone miss my point? I didn’t grow up stuck inside so often, I spent a LOT of time outdoors. Hell, the first book I ever read was a survival manual.

I even learned to drive a stick shift at age 7, before I even got glasses. So I still stand by the opinion that indoor vs outdoor environment makes fuckall nothing to do with nearsightedness.

You’re either born with it or you aren’t. It’s all about the shape of the eye.

I spent more time outdoors than indoors.

There’s a difference between seeing your dick versus seeing your pubic hairs clearly. Whether you take my word on it or not, my member is of a decent size, I just can’t see the hairs without my glasses or contact lenses.

And yes, I also have 42 years of actual real life experience with myopia. What the fuck a scientist gonna tell you if they haven’t literally lived and experienced bad nearsighted eyes?

Yes, I do take that stance, and I always will. Those dumb fucks declared me deaf for the first 8 years of my life.

I heard them just fine, I just couldn’t see their lips moving.

No shit Watson. It’s still all about the shape and proportions of the eye, not the size. Anyone with myopia can literally push their eyes in gently via the eyelids and see a bit better.

Your eyes don’t get longer from being indoors, you’re either born with longer than normal eyes or you aren’t. Some are even born with shorter eyes, called hyperopia (also better known as farsightedness).

Do you even know what causes myopia at birth? The eyes aren’t properly spherical, they’re elongated. This doesn’t tend to change all that much over one’s lifetime either.

Yes, you’re right. I can’t see my own fingerprints (without my glasses), past about 1 foot (~30.5 centimeters) in front of my face.

I didn’t even get glasses until I was 8 years old, which basically meant I was running around legally blind until the age of 8, when they finally stopped punishing me for not being able to see shit and actually took me to an optometrist.

LMAO, you ever tried walking a quarter mile when your vision is so bad you can’t even see your own fucking dick clearly?

I grew up on a 40 acre horse ranch and had to walk about a quarter mile to even catch the school bus, yet couldn’t see a pile of horse shit until I accidentally stepped in it.

So still, I ain’t buying that whole ‘spending more time indoors causes myopia’ thing, I was literally born with it.

Oh, I’ve got myopia, like -5 vision, and yes I was born with it. That’s why I ain’t buying that whole ‘we don’t go outside as much’ theory for even a second.

Edit: Thank goodness for glasses/contact lenses.

You mean to tell me, that in this day and age, with half a zillion cars out on the road damn near every day, that people don’t go outside as much as they used to? Let alone have to look half a mile down the road to find the exit sign on the highway?..

The one I was born in and currently live in. I’m too lazy to die anywhere else.

So, I guess the USA it is…
