  1. Hard lens isn’t necessarily a specific type of lens. When I had contacts, the gas permeable lenses were relatively new and more or less replaced older hard lens types.
  2. They are harder than soft, yes.
  3. I have a buddy from Hanford who is huge train nut, so I guess I assumed all y'all had an affinity for trains.
  4. I dunno, man. It kind of was expected...
  5. Doom, you have to remember Tsar is old, so he doesn't know about subsequent references to Casey Jones in ...modern media.
  6. Well this thread started off poorly... and somehow went even further off the rails.
  7. In fact, I think it's this exact thing the Zeni is trying to make fun of in his uniquely inept way.
  8. Uh... a lot of people use emojis poorly....
  9. You take good care of them, they're comfortable enough. But, they're small and easy to lose if dropped. You can't sleep with them in. If you don't wash them and store them every night, they can be really problematic. I never had a problem with them performance-wise.
  10. I haven't seen an email invite yet.
  11. That was the theory for quite a while. It was one of the reasons I got gas permeable contacts. (The other being the damn things didn't tear when you put them in.)
  12. Your face looks good on any body it’s on,
  13. That's why I love this restaurant called Stacked! You order shit on an iPad at the table and you can make as many changes as you want. They still fuck it all up.
  14. I cry silent tears for your poor, poor, skin.
  15. And that is how you get youthful vibrant skin like Packard.
  16. It would be frightening as hell if any of that was real on an 74-y-o.
  17. He's got an Al Bundy kind of vibe to him, which is to say he's an utterly forgettable, balding, middle-aged, white dude.
  18. That's one way to double down on douchery.
  19. That's really the primary driver behind cancel culture in general. Without agreeing with the concept, the point stands that celebrities really can't be afforded the benefit of the doubt when it comes to apologies, even unprompted ones, because they have too much capital (real and emotional) invested in an artificial, public persona. The apology has to come from the person not his or her avatar, and, for better or worse, cancelling an individual at least in part strips away that artificial front. Unfortunately, the larger issue is that cancel culture doesn't allow for a space for honest apologies once the artificial image is destroyed. Personally, I don't hold Harmon to that kind of standard because he's a particularly dark comedian. For better or worse, he's made a living off of making some really cynical, if not outright nihilistic, jokes, so it's to be expected that he's eventually going to make a joke that goes too far and he's not going to apologize for it simply because its vile in it's own right. It's only somewhat comparable, but this isn't unlike when Gilbert Gottfried made a joke about Japanese tsunami victims and was forced out of his iconic pitchman job with AFLAC. Anyone who's seen Gottfried over the years expected him to make that joke, but that doesn't mean it was any more acceptable once he did.
  20. In general, the first action of someone who is too vain to wear glasses is to simply not wear the glasses, not replace them with contacts. I know people who were vain about wearing them, and that's how they acted.
  21. I want his ghost to stuff you in an oven, roast you, then fold you in half so you can go to flavor town up your own asshole.
  22. I'm starting to think it would be nice if a nice ghost lady would give me a tug while i'm in the head to take some of the edge off the brick I'm shitting out. Or a guy ghost would work.
