Pretentious, "film school" glasses....

[Qdrop]

the trend is over.


they were cool and cute.

[Randetica]

[QueenAdrock]

Yeah. Link pictures.

You mean like emo glasses?

[like2_drink]

i have thick oakley glasses like that, but i don't wear glasses anymore

annnyways, i was wearing them befor they got fucking emo and now i got thrown in with the lot of 'em(n)

[Qdrop]

oh, you know.


but yeah, the "Emo glasses" are one way to describe them.


enough already.

they've LONG since crossed over from "differant and stylish" to "JNCO Jeans" territory.
i think Sears has a fuckin "film school glasses" kiosk for the back to school crowd.

[Waus]

Here I am sitting around like a chump in my plaid shirt and film school glasses.

Help Q - what can do I weared?

[QueenAdrock]

What if they can't afford new prescriptions though? Vision's esspensive.

[JimmyTheScumbag]

your just mad because you liked Batman & Robin

[Extra Cheese]

are they like the rivers cuomo glasses?

[afronaut]

they've LONG since crossed over from "differant and stylish" to "JNCO Jeans" territory.
What the fuck do you have against JNCO Jeans, motherfucker? Them shits are stylish.

[g-mile7]

your just mad because you liked Batman & Robin


that made me laugh

[like2_drink]

say waht you will about emo glasses, but leave batman and robin out of this!

[Qdrop]

Help Q - what can do I weared?

what can do you weared?

anything that's not overly trendy....otherwise you deserve mockery.

and i said "trendy", not popular.
jeans are popular, no problem there.

just wear normal, unassuming glasses that don't draw undue attention to yourself, or scream "LOOK, I AM WEARING WHAT OTHER "COOL" PEOPLE ARE WEARING! I'M WITH "IT"! I'M LIKE THEM! TREAT ME AS THOUGH I AM POPULAR, LIKE YOU TREAT THOSE OTHER PEOPLE THAT WEAR THESE, AND THAT I WANT TO EMULATE SO BAD!"

[QueenAdrock]

What if it looks really awesome? I mean, if you have an emo haircut and no emo glasses, you're gonna be mocked.

[Qdrop]

What the fuck do you have against JNCO Jeans, motherfucker? Them shits are stylish.

yeah, in 1995.
i had a shitload of em.

[DandyFop]

I'm all about the film school glasses. I really like how they look on people. A guy is pretty much automatically hotter with them on.

[g-mile7]

Batman was emo b4 his time.....

[Rock]

What if a person has been wearing the "film school" glasses for years?

I have a friend that has been wearing his for about 11 years now, does he get a pass?

In other words do you think people should change their style up because it happened to get popular a few years after they started doing it?

[Qdrop]

you're just pissing on the world! do you know that!??

well, YOU ARE in film school....i guess you get a pass.


but how can you say guys look hotter?
that same style of glasses in 1970-195 were considered the epitome of geekdom.
they were the standard-issue stereotype (along with pocket protectors) for the Revenge of the Nerds movies....

then suddenly, they're sexy?

[DipDipDive]

I wear them. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v288/DipDipDive/newpics2.jpg)

I like them.

Eat my poop.

[Extra Cheese]

[cosmo105]

i think they can be pretty hot on a certain type of facial structure and shit.

when steger wears them, holy shit. holy shit.

too bad.
society destroyed it, now you must abandon.
it's not fair, but it happens.

happened to me with the baggy JNCO jeans.
you used to have to fuckin HUNT for those things back in 93-96...it was difficult...and they cost a fortune...
by 99', fuckin Sears was selling them out thier catalogue, and that was that.
i'm not sharing my clothing style with 10 years olds going to the food court.
the trend had died.

steger could smear his face with fuckin fecal matter and you'd think he'd look hot...and then post about it.
enough.

we get it, you think he's the hottest guy ever....

[Randetica]

are they emo glasses? (http://www.beastieboys.com/bbs/member.php?u=314)

[Mac Tiger]

Wristbands are where it's at now anyway

[Waus]

Wait - is fecal matter in?

omgomg *smear*

[QueenAdrock]

Naw, I agree. Men who have proper facial structures for glasses can be beyond hot when they put on their specs.

Mmm. (y)

[g-mile7]

well if you compare them to jocks...

for most women with brains and intergrity, fuckin telephone poles are sexier than jocks...

[g-mile7]

[afronaut]

hahahah, you owned jnco jeans.

[Qdrop]

Wristbands are where it's at now anyway


see, now i used to rock an Adidas wrist band when i Dj'd or went to undeground clubs and shit....
i dug that look and it wasn't too abused.
(kinda old now).

but that leather wrist band thing?
ugh.

word to the wise: if Dane Cook is wearing it....it's beyond trendy, and is now commercially gay.

[Qdrop]

hahahah, you owned jnco jeans.

like 6 pair.
and Breakdowns too...

oh, those were the days.

[DandyFop]

I don't pay much attention to trends, I guess.

Maybe I shouldn't have dropped my subscription to "QDrops Fashion Don'ts" monthly :(

[Randetica]

haha lyman that idiot still wears emo glasses (y)

[g-mile7]

every view has been a reply to thsi thread....guess this is the IN thing to do.

[Qdrop]

except when he doesn't shave, even though he's been promising to for FOUR MONTHS :mad:

[beastiegirrl101]

I see what you are sayin Q but what I have a problem with is the people that wear them with no perscription at all. Just for the look of it. I wear contacts but when I run out...I wear my glasses which happen to be red frames which could be taken as emo-y but...eh not really.

[Rock]

too bad.
society destroyed it, now you must abandon.
it's not fair, but it happens.
see thats fucked up.
so what if it becomes "trendy". If I've been doing it, then I'm still going to do it no matter who else decides to join in.

Look at DJing for example. I remember back in 1990 I knew about 5 people that had turntables and spun records. Fast forward to 1994-1996 and everyone was getting tables and all like "Yeah I mix records and shit." Does that mean the 5 people I knew should have stopped because some 9th graders parents bought him a set up?

I dunno man....I just think its dumb to change what you like just because "everyone else" likes it now.

[beastiegirrl101]

like 6 pair.

oh, those were the days.

do you rememeber Slicks?

I had about 100 IOUs from Merry -go -Round. ha.

[Rock]

Welcome to 50 Cent's world. The world of the hatas.

[Qdrop]

see thats fucked up.
so what if it becomes "trendy". then that means society killed it.
that is why we must ruthlessly protect our mini-culture underground trends.
that's why people in the "underground" put alot of effort into keeping things underground....
because once something goes mainstream...it gets saturated and losed it's intial meaning.

well, comparing eyewear choice to an artistic/musical platform is a bit of stretch.
and in instances like that, though it was and IS annoying to have 5 billion kids with tables and no talent...they are easily pushed to the side when it comes to booking, playing out, battles, production skills, etc...
in cases like that, competition will always thin the heard...

but with fashion, you're SOL.

yeah, i had a few pairs of those...
but i was the kid who got them in 91-92, when they were past trendy.
i'm still ashamed.

[Rock]

"yeah, i had a few pairs of those...

ouch....i never even had a pair. Too ridiculous for me..I just brought them up because i got Slicks confused with them at first.

I hear what you are saying about turntables and thinning out the herd.

[Randetica]

i wear whatever i like, trendie or not


the good thing about classic wear is that it never gets out
only hyped shit gets sooner or later out

but you knew that already

the emo glasses were never THAT hyped around here so i still look cool with mine and gonna wear them the next few thousand years

[kaiser soze]

OnO

[enree erzweglle]

The glasses that I wear are for reading. At work I wear rimless half glasses because given what I do for a living, I need them on about 75% of the time--for reading/editing but not computer work. Since they're rimbless, they're so fragile and they were fairly expensive, so I don't use them outside of work.

Until I need a prescription lens, and I'm just on the verge of that, then I wear whatever reading glasses they have at dollar stores or Office Depot. Mostly, they look like these (http://www.sierratradingpost.com/eccStoreFront/stp/product_images/76981/F_76981_1.jpg) which I think is kind of awful but my friends like them--one in particular does and he counts the most.

It's not worth it to buy better glasses because I lose them lots since I take them on/off a bunch of times each day and then forget where I put them and my cats knock them onto the floor and I step on them. I have about 30 different ones and they're all over the house, in my car, at the gym...everywhere. Mostly, though, they're usually just propped on top of my head.

[Randetica]

i btw totally luv ddd's glasses (y)

[Dr Deaf]

if anything needs to say goodbye, it's emo. shit started in 2000, ffs. move it along. packs of kids that look like middle school janitors with terrible hair and welfare sneakers. enough already, it sucks. you look lame.

[Miho Mingu]

The "film school" glasses are awkward-looking to me; if I were forced to wear glasses one day because of eyesight problems, I'd go with a standard, decent-looking pair.

Besides sun glasses, I'd only wear glasses for eyesight issues.

[Drederick Tatum]

misguided Q Drop trying to give fashion advice again? I would listen but Dolce & Gabbana say different....actually I wouldn't listen anyway.

[iceygirl]

emos, metros, goths, and hipsters

qdrop must be running out of material if he picked 'film school' glasses to pick on this week. weak.

[Documad]

I will be getting an eye exam on Monday. What kind of frames am I supposed to buy? Do they even sell any other kind? I'm NOT going back to the big bug-eyed ones of my youth!

Emo goes as far back as the '80s.

But the over-indulgent ridiculous "emo haircuts" and other stupid crap that you see kids wear in the mall is a product of the '00s.

[Lex Diamonds]

they were cool and cute.
I agree about the stop wearing them part, this bit is just wrong though.

No it's not, it comes from the late 80's punk bands who became emo bands in the 90's.

i can remember when qdrop used to be perhaps a little bit cool and intriguing. now you are just that 'message board sell out whore -your words' that you rant about every time you post. so here is my question to you... when did YOU decide to become such a pussy? you suck because there was a time you were a potential interesting poster and now you are only just annoying.
