Are you an eyeglass cord wearer?

Post by obiebookworm »

No. I've always wanted an eyeglass cord because in my mind, it's practical.

When I was really little I thought they were cool so I did. But now I really don't like them, I don't even like glasses.

No I get satisfaction from pushing my glasses up on my nose.

That is exactly why I hate wearing glasses! That and my husband laughs at me when I do it.

No, my glasses aren't just reading glasses, they're for everyday use. Since I don't take them off except when I'm sleeping, an eyeglass chord is kind of useless

No, but then I have this idea (possibly incorrect) that most people who do are tourists or elderly, and since I'm neither of those things, I'd rather not!

No, I wear glasses all the time. I do not have a chord with my glasses though.

I tried the cord thing once. Somebody gave me one for free. I couldn't get used to it. I just do what I'm doing in the picture on the left: peer over the top. There, you see, an honest picture ... me, in all my critical, authoritative splendor.
