caddyman: (Not again!)
I really, really, dislike wearing glasses. Thank God I only need them for reducing eyestrain while I’m using the computer.

I doubt that there is any other single item that gets so grungy with so little provocation that a pair of glasses. The simple act of putting them on ensures that you have to take them back off immediately to polish the lenses. Half the time all that achieves is to move the smear around the glass; it doesn’t actually go anywhere. For the first time in ages, I have brought my rucksack with me today. This means that at least I have a supply of Boots’ Spectacle Lens Cleaner, which makes life a little easier.

And sticking the bloody glass cases in your pocket buggers the shape of your coat or jacket. Suddenly it is impossible to button up properly without it looking as though there is some horrific goitre hidden under your clothes. If you leave the glasses out of their case, you risk damage to the brutes and they attract grease, finger prints, dust and grime immediately.

How do people who wear the damned things all the time cope?
