If you know me, you probably know that I have worn black, thick-rimmed glasses for quite a while. It seems that of lately though, there has been an outbreak of mockery against me. I have seen around APU's campus a number of people who wear black, thick-rimmed glasses, but without prescription lenses. Sometimes they have no lenses at all!
Let me explain this: PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE TO WEAR GLASSES OUT OF NECESSITY ARE CHOOSING TO TAKE AWAY A FASHION STATEMENT THAT PEOPLE LIKE ME ARE FORCED TO MAKE AGAINST OUR WILL.
Perhaps you do not understand the enormity of the situation.
This is where Caleb comes in. I told him about this after seeing a girl wear these fake glasses. I believe she and the others that do this are trying to look rebellious or cool or something.
"It really bothers me," I told him. "It's like they're taking this thing away from me that I was forced into. It's almost like they are mocking my poor eyesight."
He said this:
"It's like if I rode around in a wheelchair just for fun."
Exactly, Caleb. Exactly.
