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
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, an arm fell off my only glasses. Problem is I can’t fix it, since I can barely see without actually wearing them. Tomorrow, I’ll be getting around with one-armed glasses until I find someone who isn’t half blind and can tighten a tiny screw. FML
Today, I spent 30 minutes trying to find my glasses. I don't know what's worse, the fact that I was wearing them the whole time, or that my girlfriend played along and helped me look for them. FML
Today, my glasses have completely disappeared. I know for a fact that I put them on my desk, but now they're absolutely nowhere to be found. This is my first time playing "Find your glasses without the assistance of your glasses" and I'm failing at it badly. My vision isn't even that bad yet. 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
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
Today, I spent almost 10 minutes cleaning my glasses because everything looked blurry. The problem wasn't my glasses. I was actually wearing my sister's, who apparently got almost the same frames as mine. FML
Today, I found a pair of glasses in my car. I don't wear glasses, and nobody besides myself has been in my car lately. It appears that someone has been sleeping in my car and forgot their glasses. FML
Today, I went to get a facial. I forgot my contact case so I put them into paper cup. My beautician thought it was leftover water from someone else, and threw my only pair of vision aid away. I scuttled home half blind. FML
Today, while I was normally and gently cleaning my glasses with my shirt they snapped in half. This is the second time this has happened, with the exact same glasses. The optometrist got me another pair last time, but this time they said no because it was too suspicious. I now have to buy $150 glasses again. FML
Today, my elderly mother explained that, "I don't need my glasses to drive, I just need them to see." FML

Did you check under your bed or behind your dresser?

Maybe if you have two empty toilet paper rolls, you can McGyver yourself a freshly pair of stylish glasses. Use red and blue "lens" for added support

That should have been a pretty simple explanation

Wearing someone else's glasses is like trying to wear someone else's dentures. They're custom made for you and will only work for you.

Because boys can't wear girl glasses? Is that why?

No. People have different prescriptions so trying to find someone with the same prescription is like finding a needle in a hay stack.

Ah, I see! For people with bad eyesight, it's hard to find a needle in a box of needles, not to mention a haystack!

It does depend upon what condition the glasses correct. You could get some improvement over not wearing any at all however it is still not a good idea unless you couldn't function without them.

Without her glasses, she couldn't see why it wouldn't work on you.

Sometimes it works better than not being able to see anything. At least for a short while.
