Before I got my glasses the stars looked big and well star shaped, with lots of little spikes, I was utterly disappointed when I got my glasses, looked at the night sky and they're just dots, boring ass dots.

Go out into nature, far far from civilization and light pollution. It's a very different picture.

Oh I had the same experience with my friend's hair. I used to like being behind her in line because her hair was like a flowing, floaty cloud. When I first wore glasses, I could see each hair and it became like a tangle of wires.

You should try looking up at the stars with night vision some day. It's spectacular.

...Or so I've heard. I'm one of the poors that can't afford unfilmed gen III white phosphor tubes.

Just mine your own phosphor at home
