How to spot Matt
I step out of my condo on a very bright day. I put my sunglasses on and walk slowly to the drug store to do some errands. Even with my Ray-Bans, I had to squint. Maybe I've been holed up in my condo too long. As I'm walking along, I gradually notice people looking at me. I wonder if my zipper is down. When no one was looking, I discreetly check by pretending to pull up my pants. But it's zipped up nicely. I pass more people and I get more stares. When I reach the drug store, I take off my sunglasses and notice one of the lens in my sunglasses is missing.
How can that be? I look around the entrance but I can't find it. After I pick up my stuff, I retrace my steps to see if I can find it but to no avail. I still couldn't figure out how I walked in the bright day and not notice. Eventually (a couple of months afterwards) I find the missing lens in the bottom of my knapsack.
So next time you see someone walking around and something doesn't look right - it's probably me (especially if you catch me checking my zipper). Just say hi... I won't bite.

Ha ha ha... that's funny. Is this true?
@christao408 - yes... *slaps head*
Are you serious? This is funny but also quite disturbing.
Thaat's really funny! I was outside with some people once, looked at the guy and one of HIS sunglass lenses was missing. He felt like a boob, but we comforted him by laughing.
@beowulf222 - I'm afraid so. I have an appointment with my eye doctor in the fall and need to figure out how come I didn't notice. I know one's eye can be a bit more dominant but this is strange.
@whyzat - hmm... I didn't hear anyone laughing (or maybe I've suppressed that memory).
LOL aw
Haha, that is hilarious!
Awww, that's a cute story....you need to go shop for a pair of new Ray Bans!
One day I walked around with a pair of shorts that had a pretty significant hole in an unfortunate area. Did not notice it. Was wearing very, very slutty underwear
You're just being humble. Its obvious people stare cause you look like Elvis.
You need a vacation my friend. Seriously, take some time off. Funny, but disturbing is right. Be safe Matt.
Hahaha. That's hilarious. Talk about mental placebos and not realizing you were missing a lens.
LOL I check my zipper all the time even when people are looking. hehe xD
That is funny. Really. Glad you found the lens eventually though.
matt, you REALLY need to get out more. so you had one fell off and one still on? omg. let's hope they thought it was the latest fashion trend.
@hilabpartnerxD - @ed408 - I still can't believe that I didn't notice that one lens was missing.
@CurryPuffy - I've got it fixed now but I do want a new pair of sunglasses. I have to be more anonymous.
@secade - slutty underwear.... my imagination is running wild.
@catstemplar2 - a Chinese Elvis? hahaha.... thank you very much.
@Toro69 - I want to find out from my eye doctor how come I didn't notice. But yeah, I hear you on the vacation.
@bengozen - it's crazy. I must have really looked bizzare.
@oxyGENE_08 - I remember stories about unzipping before you even get close to the washroom.
@ZSA_MD - I did manage to pop it back into the fra,e. But now i'm looking for a new pair of sunglasss.
@rudyhou - I'm sure it was not the latest trend.
@ElusiveWords - LOL yeah...not the washroom but the wall urinals hehe
You are funny, i cannot stop laughing. It does bring kind of comfort out of my stressful days though. Thanks.
@stevew918 - Steve, I wasn't sure if you got my msg or not. I hope things are ok with your mom. I'm glad that entry made you laugh.
Haha! How is that even possible to have one lens missing and not even notice?
A picture would be nice to help us recognize
