Any sick of these "hipster" glasses

[troutbug]

My wifes friend had a picture on facebook of these new glasses that have been the latest fad. I asked why she got them and if they were comfortable, her answer was "because it is whats hot right now and no they are not very comfortable"

I see people wearing them everywhere, they remind me of my Grandpas glasses and I think they look goofy on people who wear them as a fashion statment. One girl I know doesn't even need glasses but got them to wear.

:angry3:

Just silly

What's a facebook? Sounds like some hipster thing.

Just googled hipster glasses. Looks like I've been wearing them for 20 years. Damn hipsters. Now I have to get some unfashionable glasses so the "cool" guys on facebook don't bring up my "hipster" glasses on forums. Are they hipster glasses if they're over 10 years old?

I don't even know what a hipster is. SMOM!! Glad I'm too old to give a flying tweet what someone says on facebook.

You are quite fortunate to lead a life that allows you the time to focus on such things!

naw, got some down time tonight and watched a friend post about 20 pictures of her and her new glasses and felt like a rant is all. Dont have to focus on it, just walk downtown to see it all

[rugatika]

Hmmm, interesting. So now that my "hipster" glasses have come and gone in and out of fashion without me even knowing it...what ARE the "in" glasses to get? I don't facebook or read GQ or any of that stuff, but I sure don't want the fellas down at the pub making fun of me if I don't feel like wearing the contacts.

Thanks for the fashion help,

[CanuckShooter]

You wouldn't hit someone that wore glasses would you?

Wearing glasses makes you look more intelligent...ever see a scientist without specs?

I don't think they look stupid on all people…
Some people wear them quite well.
Anyway they are on the tail end of the trend now.

Ok...first off I understand why that "guy" is wearing glasses.
He's just hoping that nobody will hit him.

Matbe THAT is why they are so popular.

[DiabeticKripple]

could care less about the glasses, but the hipsters themselves are annoying

ok I agree, had a whole house full living next to us for a while..

[Chewbacca]

I am hipster and didn't know it. I wonder what else I am without my knowledge. :) I seem to have that ability,,,to get under people's skin without trying. I never would have thought that I would be judged on my eyeglasses.

To each their own. Youth have creeped out / disgruntled their elders since before fire was tamed. This trend will not change. Maybe take one shed hunting or fishing to prove my point. :)

Are they mirrored? If so, then it would dictate how one approaches the subject.

Green lenses, or brown? If they are the green kind, you must approach the subject gently, as any benign breaching of the subject could set off a biblical altercation.

If they are brown, then you can just shout and shame him into giving up the fad.
