Just Jack Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Because we are cool. Now go away you non-sunglasses wearing person. Quite frankly, it doesn't bother me enough to comment. But if you're inside, take them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you're inside, take them off. Great- first remark I get is from a NASCAR driver. I suppose you also wear a baseball cap with your wrap around shades Only Stevie Wonder should be allowed to wear sunglasses on a cloudy day .

BLZFAN4LIFE Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 ... because when you're cool, the sun shines on you 24 hours a day! I get what you're saying though. I'll only keep my sunglasses on in a casual setting like golfing or boating. If I'm in a personal or business situation, as a courtesy, I'll remove my sunglasses during a conversation. I want the other person to know that these baby blues have nothing to hide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corp000085 Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Sunglasses block out the hate. That's why they're called hata blockerz. Seriously though, I don't have a problem, whatsoever for people that wear shades outside (or beat cops... they're driving 90% of the time) It's just common courtesy and proper etiquette to remove your shades when you go inside, just like you'd remove your hat, or to remove them if you're having a face-to-face conversation with someone outside. If you don't do so, you're either Jim McMahon or your mother didn't raise you right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanNC Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I'm most certainly not cool and I always wear shades outside, even when it's overcast. Sometimes I wear them inside, but I have good reason to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I hear you. Many people become so pretentious when they put on shades. They think they are so cool, and try and look so slick when they take them off. The worst are the losers that wear their sunglasses indoors. It is almost like the Harley Davidson effect. Some loser puts on a Harley Davidson shirt and they think they are a bad mofo. Quite comical, not too mention pathetic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Too much exposure to bright light can trigger migraines for me. So, I'm sorry if I talk to you through shades, but I'm not going to pay the piper just so you can see my baby blue-greens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wooderson Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I wear sunglasses constantly when I'm outside, even with an overcast. I have very sensitive eyes and the sunlight puts alot of strain on them, but I never wear them inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeviF Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I wear sunglasses constantly when I'm outside, even with an overcast.

This, I'll also take them off if I encounter someone outside and have a conversation with them, but I'll be squinting the entire time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I wasn't cool for a really long time. Then I became really cool and got some sunglasses. The sunglasses didn't come first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meazza Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 This applies from cops to rappers and all between. Is there some thing about hiding your eyes that makes you feel in charge? Did you ever try driving with sunglasses at night? I find it calming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Did you just refer to your eyes as your "baby blues?" BLZFAN did indeed just refer to his eyes as "baby blues", I'm one proud German-Polack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
