Do you wear glasses? In movies/tv/books and mostly anything else, nerds always wear glasses! ...Duh. But why?
I don't understand why, really. Someone can't see so he gets glasses and everyone calls him a nerd. And the weird thing about it is that when a kid in my [old] class got glasses he was called a nerd but when get got contacts he wasn't anymore.
O_o
I am not a nerd! ;_;
Yea, basically what I'm saying is, I wear glasses. :D
i've never associated glasses with nerds :p

I actually think some people look really good in glasses. I am not one of those people. I cannot pull off the glasses look for some reason, but since I have awful eyesight, I wear contacts instead.
I think contacts are cool but glasses arent necessarily cool. They can be though plus they make you look smart which is cool.
I look great in my glasses! <3 ;) :cool:
Stop calling me a nerd! :crying: *runs* :(
you never know when you need to wear glasses.......what happens if a straight-F student who sell drugs and beats up kids wear glasses then. call him a nerd and then you ARE DEAD!
>__< I tried contacts once... they irritate my eye too much. :/ I don't know how people can wear them. xP~Quote:

It makes you into a communist.
ANY close-focusing of the eyes is detrimental to long-range eyesight(at least, until your eyes are fully developed around 20-years-old). The biggest cause is reading, but there's also being on the computer, for example. Video games usually aren't a problem because most people sit more than a few feet away from the TV.Quote:

It doesn't matter what you're DOING on the computer - only if your eyes are focused! Just like looking at picture books all day would also affect your eyesight. There may be some subtle difference between looking at pictures and reading words, but I'm not aware of any.
I SEE your point. :cool:Quote:

Are those for far-sightedness? I forget. If so, that comes with age - and that's because your eyes have been focused outward for so long, they now have trouble with the transition of focusing closer in.Quote:

All the cool kids wear monocles. http://www.eyesonff.com/forums/custo...vatar162_8.gif
It's just a thing. I wear glasses for computer and stuff now, and noone calls me a nerd. However I guess I was a bit of a "nerd" at school, (considered one anyway by the "cool" people) and I didn't even wear glasses then. Yeah. I think it's something to do with people growing up =P Glasses can be sexy. Or just cute. ^_^
i wear glasses, have braces, have red hair omfg i am t3h ultimate nerd :choc:
Glasses make girls look sexy.
Computer screens are even worse than books.Quote:
Since most "nerds" read a lot
I don't wear glasses. My eye-sight isn't perfect, but it's not so bad as I'd have to resort to using glasses, which suck.
That's not true in all cases. I read alot, even when I was little. I don't need glasses (I have 19/21 vision ;)).Quote:

I like the glasses, I'd wear them all the time if I could.
Just speaking from the diaphragm babeQuote:

Anyways, having glasses generally doesn't mean that you are smart. I don't wear glasses at all, and I have top notch marks that a "nerd" would normally get. People get glasses not only because of reading, but also they watch TV too much, or play video games too much, etc.
Most people with glasses look better, in my opinion. Especially females. ;)
I am a geek without glasses, a rare breed to be sure.
Hells yeah! Although a girl in a monocle... :eek:Quote:

I've never been called a nerd, mainly because I avoid the type of people who would call me that. And those who do, only say it jokingly. :love: :love:
You nerd, You!! *Cuteness* :love:
Edit: XD
Edit 2: What did I just post??
Edit 3: My god...
I wear glasses to be on the computer, or read in dim light, not for much else though. Besides i think my glasses make me look sexy...

:D
I wear my glasses the board in class and sometimes to read the computer screen. My glasses are sexy though.
Agreed.Quote:

~Keep it gooey~
I wear glasses to fool people into thinking I'm smart. :(
Wait, girls with glasses look sexy? Hmm... now that I think about it, some girls actually do look cute with them.http://thekel.homestead.com/files/smile_scratchchin.gif

and YES. gurls with glasses are cute. even SEXY. rawr. :joey:

They're not blind. At least Link isn't. Even without glasses he can see....A bit I think..
I wear glasses sometimes.
I really don't see the problem with it. I hope all people that think glasses are really for nerds, or whatever have to wear glasses when they are older.
I had contact lenses but they were a pain in the ass. I don't look that bad in glasses either. I'd rather be comfortable then worry about if I look like a nerd with glasses. I don't really care.
I wear glasses, yes. I quite like them and prefer them over contacts.
Mine are black half-framers. They are of the flatter, elongated variety rather than round. It's starting to flake so it's less black and more metallic.
*reads thread title*
...is that so?! well, then i'm NOT going to show you my glasses!
It is not only the person that matters but the style(size, shape, color) of glasses they pick.
Mine are small bronze rounded rectangle glasses with a rimless bottom. I like'em. And people have told me they give of the intellectual feel.. actually I have heard that said to just about anyone with glasses of similar style to mine. hmmm...
Yes! Everyone is slowly coming to the senses. Then again, if that happens then all the nerdy girls will be taken and there will be none left for me...Quote:

I got a pair of specs. If you were just to look at me I'd be a nerd. Then again I know too much for my own good. :p
I like to wear buddy holly glasses. By the way, I am far too lazy to search through this massively gianormous thread, why is Triple T banned again?
I was wondering the same thing
i like wearing glasses since if anyone calls me names i can point out that they are probably worth more than everything they're wearing (£200 a pair) :strut:
I guess but everyone wearsglasses for something.I wear mines so i can drive and see signs far away or see the chalk board...
I mean you never know who wears glases lol I'm serious.You will rarely se me wear them becuase I don't have to depend upon them for seeing things....But eventually I think everyone is gonna end up with glasses for the smallest reason or because they are jsut plain blind.
yeah :cool: and as i'm the sexiest girl here its sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo troo :p :p :p :pQuote:

I wear glasses, am a nerd and am more often than not proud of being a nerd. I do however look better without glasses, but I tend to not get too bothered about my looks. I don't think I'd like to look like what people think is 'good looking' these days. I'd rather be normal old me.
I have about 20 pairs of glasses and use them as a fashion accessory. I have silver, gold, blue, purple, etc. Of course, I also wouldn't be able to see my work without them...and I am a nerd. :cat:
Nerds as I understand it are socially inept and irrationally what's the word...logical? As in unemotional?
:P
I don't think most of you are nerds.
man i was looking at a porn site last night and they had a category for glasses man it was freaking hilarious.
No way, thats freaking hotQuote:

I think glasses are cool. I have a friend who(who transferred in another school) wears glasses and is one of the most popular girls in that co-ed school. Naturally, I think glasses doesn't make you a nerd. Appearance doesn't count. It's what you are inside that matters most. It's what makes you, you. Besides, I wish I have glasses... lol, just kidding.
Damn you boris you know you're sexy, you even have ME drooling over you ! ;)Quote:

Loser
It's because most people are stupid and shallow and need to take a look at themselves because the only freaks in this world are the people who laugh at others for a no good reason
my friend Kris is a real nerd, he wears glasses, he is skinny (like me) and we both read books and love computers and programming. The only difference between me and him is i don't need glasses because of my beutiful deep, brown eyes (so i'm told) Oh yeah, i LOVE reading i read books from the adult section at my library even though im just in Year 7
Glasses can look hot on chicks, but not so much on guys, I find
