Go see the optometrist or upgrade my computer... decisions, decisions...

You have a pretty nice computer already if you have two 4850s. I vote $50 Costco eye exam and $40 (or less) glasses from online.

 

[schneiderguy]

Contacts suck. If you need new glasses get them. If not, get a new computer.

I forgot about that thread. Recap?

 

[Locut0s]

I forgot about that thread. Recap?

I can't remember it all myself. It went something like:

1. Damn I wish I had enough $ to buy an uber SLI setup
2. Hmm how can I get said $
3. I know I can become a male escort!
4. ?
5. Profit!

I believe this is what the thread was about, weather it was an escort or a stripper I can't remember. Supposedly he did it and got his new graphics card.

Again no idea if there was any proof that it was real or not.

Edit: Oh wait yeah we have this thing called working search now. Let me see if I can find it.

But I'm not going to wade through 800+ posts to see if there was real proof or not. Sort of seems legit though lol.

Ohhhhh, the male escort thread. Yeah, I think he ultimately admitted it was a fake.

That's like saying a car sucks because you never change the oil and it doesn't work right.

Well sure everyone should remember to take their car for service when the oil lamp glows continuously.

wtf, computer is a very distant second to compensating for your eyesight.

Pay rent to your folks.

Maybe, but I guarantee nothing will happen to your eyes using glasses. If you're doing car work(with greasy hands), and they fall off your face, you just pick them up, and put them back on. Don't feel like cleaning them? then don't; it's no big deal. Glasses are less hassle over the long term than contacts are.

Speaking of compensation many men will be blind to compensate for something else that doesn't measure up!

 

[gorcorps]

If you have to sacrifice health for computer parts, then you don't have enough money for computer parts.

 

[OILFIELDTRASH]

I say both.

You need to break the glasses you have right now in half. With the broken glasses in hand you need to run up to your parents and start crying about your glasses. If they refuse to pay for your contacts you start crying and throwing a fit until they give in. Once they pay for contacts get a Q9450 and enjoy.

Make sure to mention that it's because an icicle fell off the roof when you walked outside.

go to the fvcking dermatologist

If you kept up with my life you would have known I went like a month ago and already got my meds... but alas, you don't.

I have three things: Tetracycline (a pill I take every night), Differin(a gel I put on my face every other or every 3 days), and some special cleansing cloth things (just got these today actually... They're by actavis and they're "Sodium Sulfacetamide 10% and Sulfur 5% Cleansing cloths) that I use on my face every morning... It's all in motion... I'm just waiting for the gawd awful ugliness to start.. (The excessive drying, the extreme redness, etc)

 

[Rubycon]

You obviously didn't get it.

Think about what it SOUNDS like with an Aussie accent and you would know WHY is was used instead of are!

Failing bloke!
