First time trying contacts at the doctor's office to see if they actually worked for me 🤣 🤣
The poor nurse spent like half an hour struggling to get them in, totally failing. I ended up laughing about it, which just made her lose it on me 🙏 🤣
So when the doctor finally walked in and went straight for my eye 🙏 I didn't even see her coming 🤣

Heh, I honestly thought those soft lenses were going to be a total bust at first. Felt way too complicated, like there was just too much fiddling around with my eyes 🙏pooky:
But after sticking to the routine for two weeks, I can pop them out in seconds. Even putting them in is easy now—they kind of stick to my finger, and I just tap my eyelid a couple times until they snap right into place. The best part? These soft ones don't jump around on their own...

Man, looking back at the first time I tried them, it took me a solid hour and a half. I didn't even take them out all weekend until I finally went to see my eye doctor to practice properly. 😳 😳 🤣

Do you wear contacts?

Mine started climbing back in 4th grade. Wore glasses for a bit, then stopped, then they hit -3.5. Been on soft contacts for about three years now and nothing’s changed since my last checkup. Fingers crossed it stays that way, though I have some astigmatism stuff going on, so who knows. 😳
Mostly just soft lenses 🙏 won't ever switch. No issues, even if I accidentally sleep in them for a night or two. 😬
The only thing is when they get "old" (I swap them every two months). Toward the end of the cycle, my eyes get a little red, so I just pop in a new Complete set and I'm good to go. 👍

feralranger81 said:Random non-expert question here 😳 - I definitely need a prescription. Can I jump straight to contacts and skip the glasses phase?

Depends on the prescription, but most likely yeah, you can. 🙂

Just delete those posts. You can't see them anyway, so you're just cluttering up the feed.

Walter Fowler53, just make sure you uncheck "quote" before hitting send next time. 😉

Ah, my bad. My options were minimized.😁
🙂

It would’ve been nice if these were just leftover messages from when the forum crashed and trashed everything😁

Anyway, I'll just drop my question about PMs here so I don't clutter things up with a new thread🙂

Is there a way to stop these sent messages from being saved? Or is that just a global setting for the whole site?

Look, just be glad this forum even exists, let alone all this crap. 😠

Bribe the mods... I heard they have a weakness for Kinder eggs 😬

Jerry Wright6 said:I stick with WinZip because it’s just better; those basic ZIP tools don't handle everything, but RAR-based stuff opens both formats without a hitch. It covers all the bases...
Of course, once my trial expired, the app started acting up, throwing that "buy now" pop-up in my face. I just hit cancel every single time...
If it doesn't bother you or you aren't using it constantly, don't sweat it...

You don't even have to hit cancel if you're fast enough... I've practiced enough to dodge it every time. 😁

crimsonmoose3 said:Old Buddy - both the movie and the book, but the film always hits me harder...

Man, thinking back to when I used to read (or have it read to me) that book as a kid... I haven't even seen the movie.🙂

The roots go until September 13, 2006, though starting on September 12, 2006, you won't be able to post 🙂 so better grab those jobs in the 3 or 4 hours we have left 🙂

I still feel bad for them, especially knowing they went way over that $33M budget.😢

😁

just post the ones with actual style😉

Rev said:checked out the official Soap Opera site (😬) and man, I am seriously hyped for this movie... pure garbage... what a plot... special agent fighting snakes on a plane... absolute classic...

the legend Samuel L. Jackson only agreed to do this because of the title... once they changed it, he demanded it be called "Snakes on a Plane" or he was out... 🙏

btw: anyone tried sending a prank call from Jackson to a phone telling them to watch the movie? tried it for a buddy and myself... doesn't work... 😢

I can't wait either 😁 if there are that many cobras and no pilot, damn... 🙏
they finally came up with something decent instead of the usual terrorists hijacking a plane while special forces save the day 🙏 Jackson is the man 🙏

this flick is gonna be a cult classic right after the promo hits, even if it isn't yet 🙏

pretty sure that phone thing only works in the USA 😉

"Samuel L. Jackson says he wanted to do "Snakes on a Plane" after hearing the name."

edit: looks like it works 🙏

anyone else know any other tricks I might have missed?😬

Just the mods and admins again...

lugica said:Noooooooooooooooo !!!!!!!!!!!!! It won't open!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I'm just even more miserable!!!!!!!!👎 And I don't even have a sad face emoji! What a total riiiiiiiip!

A pop-up should show up with about 105 emojis; maybe your browser is blocking pop-ups, so nothing's happening...
but honestly, anyone can manage emojis—you basically know them all by heart anyway😍

Easy for you to say when you're perfect 😁 scratch that, flawless 😢
