I'm sure many of you have seen this image floating around online at some point.

It seems a rather neat idea, though I'd be worried about any sort of accident, or even potential fight, ripping that piercing right out.

But, what if the lenses attached with magnets instead?...

Why not make the lenses small enough to just fit on your eyeball?

Because then you have to touch your eyeball and that’s gross

Not if you're any fun. Here's a new word for some: worming

As an occasional contact lens user, definitely not me.

You touch the contact lens, not your eyeball..

Because the same people who would hurt themselves accidentally ripping out their nose bridge piercings would forget to take out their fit-to-eyeball lenses absolutely every day before going to sleep.

I cannot rule out that that would be me.

I once found twenty-eight pennies under my foreskin which is strange because the Canadian Mint stopped making them in 2012.

Flat edges or round edge Canadian pennies?

We need more details..

Wasn't there also one who went to a doctor with a "stuck lens she couldn't remove" and it was actually her cornea? I think she did some permanent damage to her eye

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Oof, I saw that one. How does that even happen, without eye infection no less?!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Because having continuous infections on the top of the bridge of your nose is way more fun.

I already have that, looking to have my lenses like not rubbing against my eyebrows..

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Why would you want the lenses touching your eyeball? I would imagine that’d be very uncomfortable, not to mention messy. I’d be cleaning my glasses every time my eyes changed direction. 🤣 😅 🥸😏

You do realize that Satan was referring to contact lenses right?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Because then you couldn't look nearly as cyberpunk

I want silver ones like Molly Millions.
