Holy shit is America in for a surprise when the influencers catch up to the European glasses thing
We've got fucking bellends walking around like they smashed their faces into a couple of CRT monitors
I'm European and have never seen that, got any examples? And I'm wondering if you're talking about only the frames or the lenses too? If you've got really bad vision you have no choice, and the thicker the lenses the fewer kinds of frames are available. Contact lenses don't work well for many and there are several reasons why surgery might not be a choice.
I'm talking about the frames, no need to try to be offended on someone else's behalf, I wasn't talking about the lenses.
Gigantic and gaudy specs are a thing, sorry you hadn't noticed
Edit - I'm talking about this phenomenon, seems to be a thing in western Europe at the mo, in affluent circles -
If you couldn't deduce where I'm from by this sentence, I feel sorry for your reading skills
