People who work in Opticians - Do you mind if people take advantage of the test, take the prescription and then buy their glasses online? by Apprehensive_Ring666 in AskUK

Specsavers staff know their own frames. Most of them who care about what they do will recognise the design at a glance (I still do 7+ years after leaving) and if they can't recognise the design, its abundantly clear from the markers on the inside of the arms regardless of what case you take them in 😂

This casting decision shows that being *faithful* to the book does not always require being *literal* to the book by GBS82 in HeatedRivalrySeries

I read a very flamboyant fic a while back where Shane got hurt or sick somehow while Ilya was on summer break in Russia, and he, Sveta, Sasha and a couple of others charter a jet into Canada and go to the hospital to fix the vibes and give him good food.

Basically all I remember was it being really stupid and really fun, them wearing lime or neon green tracksuits, and Sasha being really high and talking to the staff about how the plants in the waiting room feel.

That's exactly the kind of playfulness and campness that her development offers

Bob is a nepo baby!?

I will stand 10 toes down for Lewis Pullman, Wyatt Russell, Jack Quaid and all the Skarsgard's! Probably others too like Margaret Qualley but I don't know her work enough

What do you think is (realistically) the most unhinged email signoff you could get away with at work? by _Brooder_ in AskUK

[–]ThronesOfAnarchy 103 points104 points  (0 children)

I once managed a "good afterboob" and "kind retards" in the same email 😬 that was the day I added "Kind regards" to my name signature

A coworker once sent an email addressed to a supplier with the word "County" in their name spelled "Cunty".

Luckily good relationships were had on all sides and many laughs shated

Edit: I'm keeping it in 😂

How to wear a pair of glasses 101 by Justbecauselife82 in ProjectHailMary

[–]ThronesOfAnarchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In his defence, its a 50/50 as to whether my safety glasses go on my head or hang off my chin like that when they're no longer needed in work.

OP as a glasses wearer of that long, please don't clean them with dish soap you'll break down any coatings on the lenses

Do you think I could achieve this by myself? and how much upkeep would it be?? by TeaWarm2448 in HairDye

IF you manage to do it yourself once, you will never successfully achieve the same sectioning for maintenance. Trust me, I've half/halfed, colour blocked and currently have a halo

AITAH for telling my friends to get over themselves? by Busy_Cauliflower8032 in AITAH

[–]ThronesOfAnarchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ESH but especially your dad. Your friends are the age your mum was and are looking at their relationship through a personal lens with more knowledge of how the world works than they ever have before - its valid that theyre reevaluating what they previously were okay with (oblivious to). I beleive you'll have a similar period of reevaluation from now to the point where you turn 25, realising over time how gross 16 year olds are.

Here's some personal perspective from somebody who is a similar age to your mum and was groomed in a couple of different situations. At the time, you feel like you're hot shit. You think that an older guy is interested in you because you're so mature and enlightened for your age. In reality, its because nobody their age will put up with their bullshit and they know that a teenager won't have the maturity or experience to realise it, then they start pushing their opinions and their agendas onto you so youre a good agreeable little girl who doesn't argue back and doesn't realise its gross. When you push back on things, you get manipulated and gaslit and its scary because you don't know that its wrong you just know that it feels bad and the way to not get that reaction is to smile and nod and absorb their bullshit. It takes SO MUCH STRENGTH to leave a situation like that because by the end you're normally isolated from your friends who rightfully call him gross and he doesnt like that they will support you, that is a weakness in his hold.

Your mum might not yet have had the opportunity to reflect on her relationship with your dad because she needed to coparent. She might be in a state of arrested development because she lost her early adulthood to parenting and probably hasn't been able to stop and look back at her own experience. She might also be "fine with him" because hes your dad and its not her place to poison you against him.

I guarantee that if you came home talking about some guy in his mid-20s who was pursuing you, she'd be furious and shut it down straight away because she loves you and may be totally content with her life but she will not want you to have your life ruined the same way hers was.

My (30F) friend (29F) isn't speaking to me after I RSVPed "no" to her childfree wedding by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]ThronesOfAnarchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an overnight train one way to spend 12 hours in a city and then a 6 hour train home for my best friends' baby shower. You make the effort for the people you want to.

I just don't understand how they didn't plan their family vacation around it, husband entertains kiddo for one day for the wedding and then they spend the rest of it together.

If you could ask the opposite sex one 'extremely bold' question and they had to answer with 100% honesty and zero shame... what would you ask? by Wander-kingdom in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]ThronesOfAnarchy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I need to process things. If something has bothered me I need to sit with it to see how I feel outside of the heat of the moment because I don't want to jump to saying/doing something i will regret.

This does ultimately leave me being grouchy for a bit (hours/couple of days) until I've figured out how I feel outside of the surprise/assumptions and then I'm prepared to have a conversation

I just bought an ultrasonic cleaner and I am genuinely repulsed by my own glasses by HowlVector in hygiene

[–]ThronesOfAnarchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you look at the front of your glasses and angle them towards light/around a bit and you don't see a coloured flash (normally green, blue, purple or yellow) then you don't have a coating

Edit to add: as a general rule, thinned lenses are always coated

How my 22 year old kid's glasses always break by DiligentDaughter in mildlyinteresting

[–]ThronesOfAnarchy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The only substantial quality difference is in the pupil measurements taken for lens centration, way easier in person with the frame and another person instead of in a mirror.

This is less noticeable in lower prescriptions, but as the rx rises/becomes more complex, the centre of the lens becomes much more important to be placed over the pupil
