do you find the term 'four eyes' offensive??

[epona]

obviously this is only relevant if u wear glasses lol, i personally don't take offense from it but i know some people get really worked up about it

TBH it's a 5 year old insult, but I could see others getting offended by it. Plus it would be cool to have four eyes

Basically this.

If you still get offended over something like that, you need to reevaluate yourself.

you should have made this a poll

you should get contacts

you should get contacts

recently i have been reevaluating my life so i will definitely consider it.

 

[Rasha]

it's a stupid, childish insult but it's still an insult because you're basically calling out that person and making fun of them for wearing glasses.

while youre re-evaluating u should think long and hard about what u said to me earlier and how youre going to apologise for it



anyway yes i agree its a stupid thing to take offense to

Does anyone even say that anymore? So many people wear glasses now and they come in better styles, shapes, and sizes than they used to.

I've heard of it and some friends jokely say it but I don't get offended much. It's just kind of disrespectful and unpleasant to hear lol

 

[Rasha]

this is the type of insult used by preteen bullies in school or in those kids' cartoons, I wore glasses back in school but no one ever called me out for it. it's kind of random so I wonder what brought you to make a thread about it, tp?..

 

[Mega_Cabbage]

I don't really take offense to it since all it means is that a person is wearing glasses. I think a lot of people actually like glasses and want to wear them because it makes them look like a nerd or hipster.

 

[seliph]

No way, I'd love to have four eyes. Hell gimme eight eyes I love those spidery aesthetics

 

[Nightmares]

Hahaha what no

If someone said that to me I'd be like "um what kind of insult is that...are you like 6 years old or something?" xD

Honestly, I've never had anyone say anything bad about my glasses....I think I look better with them than without

i was just wondering

 

[mogyay]

idk, 12 year old me might have found it offensive but i didn't wear glasses when i was 12 and i also felt insulted by everything

 

[cIementine]

it's just a lie. generally, people only have two eyes, so don't believe what people tell you. don't be a mean bean!

 

[windloft]

if i ever got called four-eyes now, then that'd imply i have four eyes behind my glasses.

and that would be sweet.

 

[AnimalCrossingPerson]

Meh. The insult only really works for those with crazy strong prescriptions.

 

[TheCreeperHugz]

Nah. I used to back when I first got glasses, when it was just another thing people could bully me about, but it doesn't bother me anymore. I've not actually heard anyone use it seriously recently anyway, just in like a joking way.
