An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

I've evolved from bifocals to trifocals. I didn't pick new frames, as Iike the ones I had before, so I just got the same frames again. I got these ones with lenses that go dark when you wear them outside and clear when I come back in. This means I'm not constantly swapping glasses when I come inside, or go outside...

Transitions are a game changer, along with magnetic clip-on sunglasses that look identical to your frames. They're not your grandparent's clipons.

I really regret getting those auto darkening glasses, can never get a picture outdoor that shows your eyes unless it's overcast.

Best thing I ever did. Now I put my glasses on in the morning, take them off when I go to bed.

So basically quad-glasses?

I think shades are a multiplier since they affect all of the trifocal options

Got it..

Except the shaded lenses have trifocals by their very nature.... So maybe Trifocals x 2?

Hex-foculs?

You gotta call them hexfocals. That's excellent.

If we use motor vehicle nomenclature it would be 3x3.
