I mean, if you see a Swede with glasses 50% of them got a similar eyeglass frame. How come this is still popular in Sweden when eveyone else stopped using them after the 70s? Its a great way to spot a Swede tho Wink

The problem is that there are ppl that will actually look good in those kind of glasses, but then there are tons of others who think they look good wearing these kind of glasses, but they actually don't. But they think it's so cool and 'hip', or even 'edgy', to wear these, when in fact they look like a douchebags...

It's the culture today I guess...

It's a Pretentious Douche Early Warning System. The PDEWS-act was signed into Swedish law two years ago, and I've never had to talk to a pretentious douche since.

Just wait, soon Norway will pick up on the trend (Norway is usually ~6-8 months late when it comes to stupid trends).

So they don't have to put on makeup. Which I can understand, since I'm lazy in the morning too.

I hate when pretty girls wear those. What's the point of being pretty when you are wearing tinted windshields?! Embarassed


they wear those sunglassed to hide the black eyes they got from their abusive husbands/boyfriends ..

I use these glasses myself.
http://www.specsavers.se/glasogon/glasogon-man/h-j.c.-56/

I look really good in them as opposed to many other glasses but they are unisex. If that makes me hipster fag I don't really care. Or maybe you boys will buy these fat redneck type glasses and feel all "Auuuummmerrika FUCK YEA!"

Laughing Laughing



BTW deelix, did you go on Atmosphere and did you sit in the right direction?

I don't have to wear glasses ^^ I'm lucky Very Happy

But sadly no sunglasses looks good on me, other than pilot type Ray-Bans, and they are ridiculously expensive, so I just have to suffer and squint xD
