Who wears glasses?

I do. Sometimes they can be a pain. I hate it when I go swimming and I can't see a damn thing.
Also, when I am laying in bed messing with my phone, I have to take them off or I'll get a headache.
Anyone else like this?

get lasik, best 3400 I've ever spent.

nah u can buy a ricer car with that mony , much betta

that you'll crash because you can't see.
edit: only teenage idiots want ricer cars.

Ditto on glasses suck. They just get in the way of everything (ie, when dressing, showering, sleeping, swimming, etc)
But actually, my nearsightedness is not too bad; only about -3.00 or -4.00 diopters. So I admit I don't have it as bad as a lot of others.
To compound my problems, I can't wear contacts. I have a fear of eye-touching. (Remember in an episode of Friends, Rachel has this problem?)
I would totally go for lasik surgery. I've heard a lot of good stuff about it.
Oh, regarding the argument between lasik vs a nicer car...that's just silly. If you choose to go with a nicer car, you should sell it to do lasik and then get a cheaper car.
Tip on swimming: There are goggles with corrective lens. They look an feel just like regular goggles and don't cost that much more.

I am relatively new to wearing glasses (just over a year). I hate it, but I'm to much of a p***y to get contacts.

What's a ricer car?

Ricer - (Ricer: from the latin word Ricarius meaning to suck at everything you attempt) A person who makes unecessary modifications to their most often import car (hence the term "rice") to make it (mostly make it look) faster. The most common modifications are (but not limited to): - Huge exhaust that serves no purpose but to make the car louder - Large spoiler on the back that looks like something Boeing made for the 747 - Lots of after-market company stickers they don't have parts from, but must be cool - Expensive rims that usually cost more than the car itself - Bodykit to make the car appear lower, usually accented with chicken wire - Clear tail lights and corner signals - A "performace intake"- a tube that feeds cold air to their engine usually located in areas of excessive heat (behind or on top of the engine) - Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. rice rockets or rice burners) are imports; Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, CRXs, RSXs, Del Sols Mitsubishi Eclipses, Lancers, Subaru Imprezas, however there are some domestics such as Chevrolet Caviliers, Dodge Neons, Ford Focus; small, slow, economy cars designed specifically to go slow. Please note that some Supras, Skylines, WRX's and other higher performance imports are designed to go fast, and are therfore not always considered rice. It really depends on the severity of the case. The "ricer" attempts to make their car "performance" by adding the modifications listed above. These ricers are not confined to any one ethnic group ...
LoL

Yea, I wear glasses, but going through about 8 different pairs I got used to them. Speaking of glasses I will soon need to change my lenses since they are so scratched up lol. I'm worried that if Ido get lasik I wont get used to not having glasses.

you'll poke yourself in the face a few times the first couple of months, trying to adjust glasses that aren't there, but for me and my 20/400 vision, it was an amazing thing.
Had procedure about 1130am. didn't feel anything other that some pushing/pulling (had valium and numbing drops).
Got home about 1300. Wife decided to do some shopping while I was passed out in the car....
Woke up in car to eyes on FIRE. Immediately went into the house and took some motrin and benadryl and passed out.
Woke up about 8pm. Looked up and could read the clock from across the room (before I could not even see that there was a big "E" on the chart from the chair. Had to walk to about 5-10 feet to see it).
The next morning I went for my post op visit and was 20/20.
Now I am 20/15 in one eye and 20/10 in the other. Like I said best 3400 I've ever spent.
Came with free lifetime correction but 5 years later I am still seeing great!

When i didn't wear glasses, i cann't see clearly! I hate!

Chicks who wear glasses can be sooooo sexy

I don't really go swimming too often, I don't picture myself wasting $100 on something I will only wear once a month

I wear glasses.....
actually i just keep 'em in my pencil case with the box.
cause I just don't need 'em. after all.
thanks to my random eyesight change... lol was somewhere 150/75 and now its 70/70
thanks OP for the thread. Im gonna see what happens if I wear my glasses all day at school next week.

yeah, i'm farasighted and need my glasses to perform any task that involves reading small print-funny,i use to have perfect vision when i was younger-i was the only sibling to not wear glasses. i don't mind,except trying to keep them clean can be a pain,lol...

Also the price of Lasik. For $3500 I'll be a few thousand away from this (camera not included) and yes, the money I spent on my photography gear can easily buy a ricer car...or a few Lasic surgeries.

I've worn glasses since I was 4 years old (I'm 17 now). I got used to it over time.
I started wearing contacts when I was 12 years old. At first, I was scared of poking my eyes. But when I really noticed how different I looked and how my peripherals were horrible, I became brave enough to start wearing contacts. Now when I look to my sides or up/down, my vision isn't obstructed by a frame (or no lens when looking up/down). I really love contacts now. It's nice not having this heavy frame on my nose.
I've actually contemplated on getting lasik surgery. It might actually happen next summer (when I get out of high school), but I'm not sure...(tough times in the economy right now).
BTW, has anyone gone swimming with contact lenses on? Or is that something that shouldn't be done? I remember swimming with some friends a few years ago and I had no glasses/contacts on, and I got smacked with a beach ball...

how can you hate glasses?! Get some nice ones and everyone around you will be jealous.. got some nice Bench. frames.. love em!!

haha lol loved this thread and guess what?
I have worn my glasses for two days and guess what responses I've got...
1.) take them off. you look like a r.tard/ nerd
2.) oh I havn't seen you with glasses before. you look weird.
what a funny to do at school for last week of term

ummmm well the hooters of course! the chicken is ok though the three mile island sauce is the best to me

Dude, it's trash. 10 years ago it was a bigger deal. Terrible food and lame outfits. There are crazier places, like the Tilted Kilt. But that might not be as widespread as Hooter's. Either way, it's usually a bunch of old horn dogs that can't even get it up going to get drunk and stare are scantily clad women.

The thing is, people that I know go to Hooters for a few things:
1. The wings.
2. Sports.
3. "Sports"
4. Staring at scantily clad women.
5. Hitting on waitresses.
All of which can be easily done/obtained elsewhere.

phones gone that go "BANG"

do you guys remember a few months back when some guys iphone just burst into flames on a air plane? how dangerous are smart phones? Can they be life threating?? example: your on a call then suddenly the battery pops or the phone shocks you with a full charged battery. I know the situation seems extrame but anything can happen in the right conditions.

the phone banging is one of the most big issue in this times, this is why I self made a stainless and plastic (steel on display, plastic on battery side) case for my NS, in case the phone bang the weaked part explodes outside away from my head, so i'm safe, but because I'm aware for ppl nearby I've subscribed an insurance for this case, so everybody's fine
it's a really rare case, and always with no OEM batteries, or because Apple product are not so good at all

The tin foil on my head should protect me if the phone explodes near my ear, it's specially designed to protect my ears

It's not possible for this to happen with anything other than an Apple product, because every other phone has a different type of core.

Shocked? By the battery? The current is about 1 Ampere. I don't think that would cause more than a tingle when touching the contacts with your tongue (remember those 9V batteries? lol)

Let's talk bikes

Not the kind you pedal. The kind you twist a throttle on and hang on for dear life.
I know that a few of us ride, some of the guys I have seen here are on sport bikes and a few do track days. An HTC Rezound thread we were in had the topic of track days come up and rather than continue to derail Scott's thread I figured I would move the discussion here.
So, who here rides, and which of you do track days? What tracks? What kind of bike?
Have had a few myself... 2 Suzuki's, 4 Honda's, a Yamaha, a KTM, 6 Ducati's and now a Triumph. I live half an hour from Road Atlanta, and only a few hours away from tracks like Talledega, Barber, Jennings GP, Roebling Road, etc...
My girlfriend rides a 2011 Suzuki GSX-R600 and just did her third track day.
Anyone live around here also do them? Would be cool to meet up at one.
We try to do 1 a month if possible, but average more like every other month. Have a ton of videos on YouTube of the track riding, we have a real blast.
Anyone else?

Well, I won't suck up bandwidth posting pics of all 15 bikes, but here is my current ride, and a video of me on the track with it... The track video was from last July at Road Atlanta. The bike had not been tuned yet, was 18lbs heavier than it is now and was down on power with a leaking head gasket which I found out later to the tune of $1000. Was really bummed about that, but got it fixed, new exhaust and a tune and the thing is considerably quicker now, can't wait to get it back out on that track and see how much faster it will go.

I have not, but I would love to have one. An SV650 is not really a dual sport though. It's a naked vtwin sportbike. If you want to go off road a bit and hit some trails as well as tour on pavement, then you want something more like a Suzuki DR-Z, Kawasaki KL-R, things like that.

To be honest, I know people that have them. You can take them on some fire roads and things, but I would not take one on a truly off-road trail.
It all depends on the terrain. The VStrom is very capable and versatile, but if you want to actually hit mud and trails, the DR-Z400 with some semi off-road tires is the one I would pick, or a Kawi KL-R650 or something. Those are basically large dirtbikes with lights and blinkers, whereas the V-Strom is an SV650 with a little more ground clearance that you can sorta take on very limited off road stuff.
The DR-Z and KL-R are actually dirt bikes made to be street legal, so if you have mud, ruts, trails and stuff to go through, I would use that. You can blast down a trail in the mud, jump stuff and then hose it off and ride it around town and on normal streets. That is really the best of both worlds, and 70mph doesn't suck either! hehe

Here is the one that I would pick if I was gonna spend more time offroad than on...
http://www.suzukicycles.com/Product.../DR650SE/2012/DR650SE.aspx?category=dualsport
Single cynlinder, air cooled, very solid and simply motor. Not much to go wrong, like dropping and cracking the radiator or something. Just give it gas and oil and go. It's a 650 so it has nice torque, and you could take that on an MX track and jump it and hit muddy trails and stuff and still ride it around town.
If you are looking more for advanture riding or touring, then I would say that the VStrom is an awesome choice. You just have to ask yourself how much offroad time you think you will have, and will it just be dirt roads, or real serious off-roading?

I used to have one of them fast bikes but then I got old and bought me this one

Those are alot cooler, but I have dirt bikes. Not looking for something I can hit trails with and go into town. Looking for something I can load down with saddle bags and not look back for a few weeks. Head up to some national parks and be able to ride down the logging roads. I'd like the on road handling of the vstorm. That is where I'd have it mostly. I mean the trip up to Yosimeti sp? is mostly highway. But I'd take the smaller state highways and camp out the whole way. That's what I'm looking for. Plus the dr, you would have to re route the exhaust to fit bags on it. It's not really a tourer.

My buddy had a Virago 750, great bike!
I think that it is cool that today, you can be "old"(LOL) and get a fast bike that is comfortable.
There has been a surge of demand for fast capable sportbikes that don't require a trip to the chiropractor when you get home. So there are a ton of naked, upright bikes, that are light, agile, and have ripping motors in them.
Yamaha FZ1
Triumph Speed Triple 1050
Triumph Street Triple 675
Ducati Monster 696/696/1100
Ducati Streetfighter 1098/848
Ducati Hypermotard 796/1100 EVO
Kawasaki Z1000
Kawasaki Ninja 1000(amazing bike, very comfortable, a ZX10 for the street)
Honda CB1000r
You get the idea. Lots of demand for bikes that are lightning quick, you can toss on the track, or ride across the state on in relative comfort. With the economy tightening up, a lot of people cannot afford to have the cruiser for cruising, the race bike for the track, and a sportbike for fast street riding or the Mtns... They want one bike that can do very well across the board and there are some amazing options out there right now.
Best bang for the buck for a bike that is incredibly light, agile enough to hang with an R6 in the Mtns, can do a track day with ease, and let you tool around town all day long in comfort, is the Triumph Street Triple 675. Strap some soft luggage to it and go touring, and when you get there go tear it up in the Mtns with the sportbike crowd...

Ah, then in that case your best bet is the VStrom for the money, they are meant for exactly what you are describing. If the money were available, I would probably go with a Triumph Tiger 800, but the cost difference is substantial, so while the Tiger might offer better offroad with the same on road capabilities, I think the cost difference doesn't make it as good a value. It costs a lot more, and that money could be spent on accessories, luggage, gear and a year's worth of fuel. LOL

Have a track day coming up, anyone in the Southeast that is interested, I can get you an invite. It's a private track day at Little Talladega on Sunday April 15.
Went riding with the girlfriend this weekend up in the Mtns. She overshot a turn and went wide and into the gravel. Ended up tucking the front and as it dig in to the dirt it sorta high sided her over the front. Just some bruises and busted plastic, she dusted herself off and continued the 100 mile ride home.

My desert gear. What do you think?

I use this for airsoft, paintball, and yes, even real guns. Simple as switching out mags. Use M9A1, and my AR Carbines.
I go to the Nevada desert and have fun. Lol.
I have a Save Phace coming in. As well as Damascus neoprene knee pads, VooDoo single point sling, and a Level III-A Kevlar vest coming in.
I also have Kevlar/nomex gloves with ceramic ablative inserts in them. (I can stop a knife thrust with my hand, grab the blade and yank it from you while remaining safe)
(All legal here)
You're likely wondering why...

I'd think, at least for paintball, you're wearing way too much, weighing yourself down. I'd go for camo colored paintball specific pants and matching camo colored jersey. You may also find a nice vertical pod pack that isn't black.
From over a decade of experience, I'd say tournament style gear and tactics work very well even in scenarios. Weighing yourself down with military looking stuff is a handicap (especially in under-performing military looking markers, whereas camo colored variants of speedball gear will keep you much more mobile and places highest interest on function.

Not particularly. AK-47 isn't good as a precision weapon.

I'd think, at least for paintball, you're wearing way too much, weighing yourself down. I'd go for camo colored paintball specific pants and matching camo colored jersey. You may also find a nice vertical pod pack that isn't black.
From over a decade of experience, I'd say tournament style gear and tactics work very well even in scenarios. Weighing yourself down with military looking stuff is a handicap (especially in under-performing military looking markers, whereas camo colored variants of speedball gear will keep you much more mobile and places highest interest on function.

Mobility is quite good. My mid rift is free. Arms are uninhibited. The weight is well distributed. The weight is on my ribs and back. All very close to me.

But, can you slide? Plus, the helmet and extra hardware aren't good for bounces.
Just my opinion, but on more than one occasion I've played a scenario without even trying to camouflage myself, sporting a shiny forest green or polished silver "speedball marker" and mowed down seasoned scenario veterans because they often don't know what to do when you're snap-shooting, gunfighting like you train hard (because I did), running, jumping, sliding into bunkers and generally making city fights a living hell for them (and also sneaking and crawling through the brush with far less to snag on bushes).
Again, just an opinion from a guy who started playing back in the first half of the 90's.

I don't slide. I'm defensive. I go to the outskirts and move in to the center. I just run or walk or roll.

You don't know what you're missing. Start off with simple gunfighting drills (snap-shooting with the one-ball check-in rule, dodging paint, etc.). When a scenario player (or whole team is better) embraces drills and skills that you normally only see on an airball field, it can totally change the event.

I've tried it. Not my style.
