Nov 10, 2009: Eye Lies

Forgive me, I'm having a senior moment. I can't remember if this has been posted before. If so, I can't find it, but it seems familiar.

In another thread we were discussing email vs telephone vs face-to-face. One poster made the claim that you really don't know what the person meant unless you could see their eyes.

But sometimes, the eye lies...



Of course you won't often talk to someone wearing these contact lenses, as they are for theatrical/costume use, and kind of expensive.
But if you do find yourself talking to someone that looks like this, just hope to hell they are contacts.

Eyes are what attract you to a woman (along with any other obvious protrusions). When, however, they have eyes like Virus C 28 days a month and they start talking in tongues, the opposite can happen. All it costs is a house and 70% of your income for a third of your life. Quite cheap, really.

I have the Black Sclera lenses from here and they look great, even if my fingers are too big to put them in my own eyes, my wife has to do it for me and I have to wear them about a half dozen times just around the house to get used to them.

I wonder if one could paint a lens so that it would look like the Cellar Monkey is peering out at the world from inside one's head?

That is crazy. I would love to do something like that just for fun but I doubt I could put anything on my eye.

Modify Sweetwater's idea ... holgram contact lenses! I've seen hologram novelty glasses - I didn't fancy wearing 3-d dope-leaves on my face, bit of a give-away, but if it had been a monkey peering out of my eyesockets, well, that would be fun.

I wonder if they could put a hologram on that curved surface?

WANT!!!

Now, if you were wearing the hologram pissing-monkey contacts, and you started crying ...

Goat eyes freak me the hell out.

If they could do these in my script I would buy them in a heartbeat
