So, really I can't get around this without a doctor's visit, can I?

1 800 Contacts has an online eye exam. I've never used it (so I don't know too much about how it works), but it's something to look into in the event you seriously can't get to your normal eye doctor in person.

I do still have the box...really I should just go to the doctors, but I kinda don't have time to do that, and or, with covid, I try to do as little as possible.

So do you just send them a pic....I do still have the little plastic things they come in.

Also thank you all for checking in. I gotta get this one figured out, it's become a source of stress that I could do without.

With 1 800 Contacts, at their website when ordering, you just supply the info of your doctor and they call them / contact them to verify the info to your contacts and then 1 800 Contacts immediately sends you your contacts. 1 800 Contacts is # 1 in online contact lenses delivery for a good reason. I strongly recommend checking them out.

Well, the UK kept them as a colony for so long and then handed them over to China so I find this completely fine.

^THIS.
Technically, because they were a British colony for so long, their really more British than anything else (seriously, most people in Hong Kong speak ENGLISH and it's usually with a British accent. I've done business in Hong Kong in the past and everyone I met there had a British accent and spoke English perfectly). I'm happy if they manage to get away from the CCP.

Yes. I order giant packs from 1800 contacts.

1 800 Contacts is the best. I highly recommend them.

Inhumanoids was badass.
It's a toy line where the main characters are SATAN (Metlar), CTHULHU (Tendril) and an undead zombie / vampire like demonic DINOSAUR humanoid thing (D.compose) who would rip open his own rib cage and put humans inside his chest / stomach and keep them captive inside his guts. Sick shit. I love it. Hasbro needs to bring them back! License them out to Paramount so they can make an R rated horror film with those three running around and causing sick shit!



Also...
I love how huge the main three Inhumanoid toys were in comparison to the others.
Metlar, Tendril, and D.compose were freaking HUGE!!

My favorite was Tendril (Cthulhu).
Here is a pic of him standing over Ninja Turtle's Baxter Stockman and some other toys. The Inhumanoids were huge compared to other toys. I would gather all my action figures (G.I Joe, Masters of the Universe, Ninja Turtles and Transformers) to fight Tendril (Cthulhu). LOL.

That's a huge reason. Also, throw in the virus and the danger that comes with being infected (and the chances of getting infected are GREATLY increased in a public job around many people one has to be at for eight hours) combined with having to enforce mask rules (which is a HUGE pain in the ass because a lot of people, especially adults, will argue and curse you out if you tell them there is a mask rule in place) combined with other pain in the ass costumers combined with workers having to wear a mask for EIGHT HOURS at work for the vast majority of the day (I'm not an anti-masker, but having to wear a mask for most of the eight hours straight for five days a week becomes very uncomfortable after a while for most people, which makes anti-masker customers even more of a pain in the ass because all they have to do is wear a mask for maybe 30 minutes at most while they shop and then they can go back to their cars and take off their masks. The workers don't have that luxury and most workers become VERY angry and bitter towards anti-masker costumers who curse them out over having to wear a mask for 20 fucking minutes while they shop while the worker has to wear a mask for most of the eight hours they work).

Combine all that with bosses that don't appreciate the workers (most bosses don't give a shit about workers) combined with workers also having to enforce distance protocols among customers (many customers will not follow 6 feet apart guidelines even with fucking stickers on the floor showing where to stand and will curse out workers who try to point this out) and combine this with most employers NOT offering health insurance for their workers (which puts workers in more danger if they get infected with the virus. A lot of people without health insurance will delay going to a doctor if they get sick due to cost and the COVID-19 virus is something you NEED to go to a doctor or even hospital for, you can't just stay home and sleep it off) all of this combined makes it where one is better off just staying the fuck home OR trying to find a job that is far easier and pays better and gives out proper benefits like health insurance (which is important during a pandemic).

^THIS.

Is saw Romeo + Juliet once or twice. So bizarre with the modern setting, the outlandish fashion and gun styles, and a modern gang war paint job mixed in with the actual Shakespearean dialogue. Seems like it was made for nobody. Purists would hate it and modern crowds would hate it too. Guess they deserve some props for trying such and idea. The whole thing screamed the 90s too.

That's another problem I had with that film. If they want to place it in a modern setting, at least update the dialogue so the characters are speaking modern American English, not late 1500's / early 1600's "Theater English" from England (and that's not how most people spoke during that time period in England, it was mostly something meant for theater and for extremely formal royal / very upper class occasions, kind of reminds me of the accent most American actors during the 30's and 40's used in American movies, which wasn't the way most Americans spoke during that time).

Man you guys are lucky you got the 70s Romeo and Juliet.

I got the freaking 90s Romeo + Juliet with Leo DiCap and Claire Danes

The 90's Romeo and Juliet is horrible.
For everyone asking in this topic, the reason the 1968 (it's NOT from the 70's, it came out in 68) version of Romeo and Juliet gets played in schools the most is because it's the best version. The acting is an A +, everything that happens in that movie is extremely accurate to the play, overall it is extremely well made. Pretty much the complete opposite of the 90's Romeo and Juliet (that's a bad, bad movie) or any other version.

I don't think Australia falls under Chris Hansen's legal jurisdiction, so that shouldn't be a problem.

Australia has something far more scary than Chis Hansen.
They have "Crocodile" Dundee:
