Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste

Today, I broke my glasses. My eyesight is horrible, I can’t see things that aren’t super close to my face. I'm supposed to drive to another state tomorrow. FML
Glassless
Today, I lost my glasses. I don't have spares but my girlfriend said I could borrow hers. She doesn't understand why this won't work. FML

Today, I searched frantically for my glasses for ages. After giving up, I realised I could see perfectly. I had been wearing them the whole time and neither my mother nor my father told me because "it was far too funny" watching me yell "Where the fuck are they?" FML

Today, while my mother's blind friend was waiting in our kitchen for my mom to come home, I thought it would be funny to talk to her in the nude. Turns out she's only blind in one eye. FML

Dork
Today, I saw my grandma for the first time since I got new glasses. Wanting to be different, I got crystal colored ones instead of black. She said, "Thank God. You looked so dorky with your giant nerd glasses!" Love you too, grandma. FML

Today, I saw a woman run down my street screaming, "Fuck you cops! I can drive under the influence if I want to!" It took me a second to realize it was my mother. FML

Today, I went driving for the first time with my mom. When she wasn't screaming, she gave great advice like, "Stop at the red light" and "Don't crash into cars". I need to drive 50 hours with her. FML

Today, my boss "borrowed" my prescription sunglasses off my desk. She crashed her car because they made her dizzy, and thinks I should pay for the damages. FML

Bat out of hell
Today, my dad asked to borrow my glasses to look for his glasses. He then took them off because they were extremely tight on his head, and gave them back to me. Then he turned around and walked into a wall. I sure hope my eyes don't get that bad, although they probably will by the time I'm 40. FML

Sounds reasonable
Today, my 70 year-old mother complained about the patio window being dirty. I asked her why she couldn't clean it, or anything else in the house for that matter. I was informed she can't clean windows because she's not left handed. FML

Time to hide away her car keys, or her car itself, depending on how old she is.

If she's 85 years old, i really don't think it would be that hard. Do you?
Vanshikap 24
Wouldn't it be easier to just hide her keys? Or her glasses. That way she can't see enough to get to the car.
A07 48
Well missy, I did say car keys aswell, didn't I?
Vanshikap 24
Well u also said car. Who the hell hides a car?

#17 Everyone who can't pay the bills will hide the own car if necessary, trust me.
Vanshikap 24
Yeah, but we're referring to normal ppl here:P

Haha give it up, you won't win :p and normal is a point of perspective.

#22, I like your drive and motivation. Even though it isn't working you keeping trying hoping that it will. Salute.

#17, how to hide a car: Put it in a storage unit.
vipirius 18
1. Get in car. 2. Drive car to nearest park. 3. Park car. 4. Leave car and go back home. There, car is now successfully hidden.

I think he said car because assuming OP's grandmother has her memory and somewhere she learned how to hotwire then the car itself must be hidden.

Well given the way a lot of people drive they probably don't need to see. She's onto something!
Sandman366 6
No, they still need to see so they can run you off the road properly.
oKap1 15
Well, if she needs glasses only to see close up things then she could drive without them.
ELoni_fml 25
What if she has no idea how fast she's going because she can't see the dashboard? Or a child walks out on the street? Even with perfect sight you'll never see anything so don't drive with anything less

Not sure why 13 got thumbed down, driving does kind of involve both long and short distance sight...you can't have just one or the other, you really need both.
ELoni_fml 25
Right?! Thank you..
jthmtwin 16
As right as they are I'm not sure if having screwy long distance vision and normal close vision and driving with you glasses on would work. I have a hard time with long distance but when wearing my glasses I can read crap up close, I have to take them off.

Now, that, is the blind leading the blind.
chinaski7628 32
No-- it's just the blind driving.
Dozer1988 14
I hope she isn't serious. She could hurt someone. If she is serious, I hope she gets a ticket to straighten her out...
ELoni_fml 25
For the safety of the public, please take her car keys away...
fsomelife 26
Pretty sure that's the DMV's philosophy on eyes.
chocolatefrog28 29
That makes me feel better being out on the road, goodness. I'm sure she's not the only one that thinks that way...

Who needs to see to drive?!? NOOBS!!
