Annotation:







       I once almost posted an idea for contact lenses that were mirrored on the inside. So you could close your eyes and see what you were thinking.   

       And glow in the dark contact lenses, so you could see what the inside of your eyelids look like.

       definitely not for driving

       if you get a pair and it isnt a white elephant gift does it mean your too narcisistic or does it mean the other person thinks you have very pretty eyes?

       can't know until you've worn them, I guess :)

       ['competitor], I thought of this as a pun at first. I think differently now.   

       Glasses like these could very well be trendy amongst the vain. They could wear these to "eyeball" themselves frequently.   

       Ironically, these glasses would eventually accomplish the very self-examination you intended for the wearer, after of course the frustrating period of time the wearer endures bumping other people and walking into lampposts, etc.. It could be fun to witness one walking this path to enlightenment.

       I think I saw this in a prank catalogue. Only they were called "Spy Glasses."

       In next year's catalogue we'll follow them up with Retrospectacles, which let you see what you could have done better

       My hindsight is 20/20, don't need any spectacles for that.

       Well put, Mr [becker] ...

       The trick is knowing which spirit to put in them.
