Right now, Zenni Optical is offering a variety of $6.95 prescription eyeglasses for Valentine’s Day. Some are merely in solid red or pastels, but some are a bit more blatant with cupids and hearts on the arms.
This little number, at left, has the Chinese characters for happiness on the side. That’s a very long string of characters to only mean “Happiness, ” sister. I’m a little suspicious. It’s kind of like a friend who was a foreign exchange student had their sister visit. She asked her sister a question and the sister went on for four minutes and my friend translated, “She said she’s happy.” What??
The glasses may be fine and good bebopping around town, but what if you read the reviews of a new, sit-down, classy restaurant that offered the best Chines cuisine? What if you sat yourself down with your glasses, made it a point to brush your hair away from the arms so the owner of the restaurant could see how coordinated you are to your dining experience, and found out that they way you had smudged something on them, the character has been altered to be perceived as a naughty word? Would everyone laugh or kick you out?
I digress. Cheap eyeglasses can help your coordinate your astigmatism for any occasion, but be really careful out there.
