Quote:By the by, what the blazes is the title to this thread mean? Part of that poetry?"An Unkind" by Soundgarden. Ben, the bassist, wrote those lyrics. If you don't own "Down On The Upside", you're missing out on the greatest grunge album of all time (personal opinion).
Quote:Oh, and I'd suggest contact lenses for this appearance problem you think you have.After a test run, it's safe to say that I can't see perfectly clearly without my glasses, and I already knew that. However, I kind of like this slightly blurry vision. I don't drink, so this is as close as I'll come to being drunk, without the lost brain cells, puking, or impaired judgment. Like I said, blurrifying my vision will help me for everything that doesn't require perfect vision. My natural eyesight will get stronger, but I'm more interested in the other thing. It kind of worked at the comedy show tonight. The girl sitting in front of me turned to me, and I think she smiled at me. Because I couldn't see her eyes perfectly, I was able to just look towards them and return with a nod and smile. With my glasses on, I couldn't have looked at her straight like that (hence the lyrics). I wrote a poem, a response, to B.E.T.'s Hip Hop Comedy Show. I'll post it in the Author's Domain.

I know that you saw me.
